Brother's Best Friend by Roxie7714

✦Chapter 35✦

I wake up in my bed next to Wiggy. I shake him up and he smiles. We say good morning to each other and went downstairs. When we got downstairs everyone was making breakfast and getting the table ready.

"I didn't know it was christmas yet." Wiggy jokes.

"We just thought we should all spend time together like the family we are"

"Okay" I said and sat down.

"Coldy should be here any minute." My brother said.

"Oh really?" I said semi excited.

Any other day i would be more excited to see my cousin but after what happened yesterday i don't think i have the energy.

Everyone else sat down and we all started eating. My brother and i put the bare minimum on our plate so did Wicca. Wicca looked at me then at my brother i looked at them and Zay looked at us. We just stared at each other for a while and then Wicca spoke up.

"It's okay not to be okay."

Everyone else stopped their conversations and looked at him. Then to his plate and back at my brother and i's plates.

"Regularly i would beat your ass for not eating properly but ima let today slide." Horsehead spoke up joking and everyone laughed.

(Im sorry if any of you reading this are going through things regarding eating disorders it isn't meant to be hateful or anything and if any of you need anyone to talk to i'll leave my snapchat again and i will repost all my social media again at the end of the story  i love you all stay safe)

I finished eating whatever else was on my plate then excused myself and got up to rinse my dish and put it in the dish washer. Walking out of the kitchen Gus came in and after him Wicca and Wiggy. I started going up to steps quickly and then i started to hear heavy footsteps behind me. I knew it was Gus. I started running but wasn't fast enough. Gus grabbed my arm and turned me around fast and forcefully. He grabbed me tight in front of him and tilted my head up to look at him.

"Astrid, what the fuck?"

"I just want to be alone right now."

"Don't fucking hide from me girl, i already told you that."

"It's just that-"

"You aren't the only one going through shit right now. I also feel like im dying on the inside the last thing i need right now is to loose your ass."

"What's wring Gus why do you sound so angry?"

He pulled me into his room and sat me on the bed then turned around to lock the door. He turned around and i was mesmerized by his appearance. He stood in front of me shirtless with his hands at his hips and his joggers low enough so his v line could be shown. I squeezed my legs together and bit my lip (if ykyk) Gus's expression changed from sad to blank.

"Are you seriously fucking turned on right now?"

"Mhm" I moaned softly.

"Astrid im trying to have a serious conversation with you right now"
