Always you - Remington Leith

"Oh shit, you like him don't you?", I stated rather than asked. She looked up at me as if I've just killed her cat or something, mouth hanging open and her face getting more and more red as each second passed.

"No, I don't", she finally managed to say, but I could clearly see how nervous she had become.

"Maybe I should go say something to Emerson for y-"

"No!", she shouted a little too loud and quickly covered her mouth, "Ok fine, I might have the smallest crush on him, is that what you wanted to hear?"

The grin on my face widened and I'm sure I looked like a complete idiot right now. I started to squeal like a little girl and she punched my arm, so I grabed my pillow and began hitting her with it while she laughed and screamed.

Before I knew it I was being kicked off the bed and I landed with a huge thud, for the second time tonight. But because Elle is my best friend, I burst into laughter, clutching my stomach as she joined in with me.

Our fun was soon ruined by the door swinging open, hitting my wall and creating another loud bang. There stood the devil himself, not looking very impressed.

"First of all, you two sound like a bunch of elephants and hyenas having a fight", Remington stated, "And second of all, your brother wants you two to come down and get your food, cause he was nice enough to order for you aswell"

Before I could say anything else, he turned on his heels and walked down the hall. Hopefully he could feel the massive holes I was drilling into the back of his head.

I rolled my eyes and Elle just gave me a stupid smirk before helping me up off the ground. We made our way back down the stairs, the smell of Chinese food hitting us right in the face as soon as we entered the kitchen. The boys were already dishing up their portions while we went to grab some plates.

"Thanks Danny", I said and he put both of his thumbs up, mouth full of food already.

"Who took my cup?", I asked, not seeing it in the cupboard. The thing is, I don't share my favourite cups and both Daniel and Elle know that. I looked inside the dishwasher and on the draining board but didn't see it anywhere. I frowned as I saw Remington holding it up to his lips, an amused smirk plastered across his face.

"You know what, I don't care, I'm just gonna have to disinfect that like a good 5 times before I can use it again", I said not wanting to start another fight. His smirk dropped from his face just as quickly as it came, he clearly thought he was doing something to me but it didn't work out for him. Keeping my cool was already hard enough around douche bags like him.

Elle and I joined the boys at the kitchen island, all of us chatting quietly and eating our food.

"Oh Mia, how's your photography going? You still doing that?", Sebastian asked. I've been taking photos ever since I was a child, but recently it's become a real passion of mine. I go out to practice every opportunity I get, sometimes I even pay people to model for me so I can build up my portfolio and get more connections across the city.

"It's great thanks, do you wanna see some of the most recent ones I took?", I asked and he nodded so I took my phone out and started to scroll through my gallery.

I slid my phone over to Sebastian, he began scrolling through the photos and Emerson leaned in to get a good look at them aswell.

"Woahhh these are amazing", Emerson said as Seb agreed with him. Just as they said that, I noticed that Remington was stealing quick glances over at my phone, trying not to make it so obvious that he was checking out the photos. It wouldn't kill him to be nice for once and actually take a good look at them, but there's something satisfying about the fact that he was actually interested in my work but wouldn't admit it.
