Brother's Best Friend (Sapnap x Reader)

Chapter 2

You close your door, leaving your room and making your way downstairs to the kitchen. You feel a chill go down your body as it was a bit cooler today. You hug your hoodie closer to yourself feeling the cold floor against your bare feet. Your brother only lives 2 blocks down but you know from experience when he says he's on his way he's actually still getting ready. Once you get to the kitchen you look in the pantry for something quick to eat. There's dust on some of the shelves from the lack of food. You close the pantry in defeat moving to sit on the couch. You text Clay telling him, since he's forcing you to leave the house, he's buying you food.

A couple minutes after you send the text you hear a beep outside and quickly finish the note you were leaving to your mom. You run to the front door and open it seeing your brother in the driver's seat on his phone. You slowly sneak out and jump up right by his window scaring him. He jumps looking like he saw a ghost as you start laughing.

He rolls down his window, "Haha very funny," he says in a mocking tone. He smiles at you finally seeing you genuinely happy since the breakup. "Get in loser."

You wipe your eyes from laughing so hard as you hop in the passenger's seat. Clay starts to pull away as he starts playing your favorite music. He keeps getting messages, as you hear the ringtone, but it must not be important as he puts it on silent.

You guys stop to get food, eating in the car at some random parking lot, making small talk here and there. Even though you two were mostly silent, it was a nice silence and you secretly thank your brother in your head. If you were still home you'd be crying and sleeping all day, at least Clay was able to keep you distracted. You really are grateful for what Clay does for you, even if you dont show it. Without him you'd be at home drowning in your sorrow.

You get torn from your thoughts when your brother's phone rings, loud. He picks it up, hesitating answering it, he looks at you and you silently tell him to answer it. He picks it up bringing it to his ear and you immediately hear two voices yelling at him. You look at him surprised and he just shakes his head.

"What do you guys want?" he laughs at the bickering coming through the phone. You can briefly hear an answer before he says something, "Guys I'm kinda in the middle of something important." You see him look over at you with caring eyes.

You roll your eyes at his cheesiness before telling him, "I'm not that important." You add a small smile trying to make it seem like a joke. His friends have stopped bickering at this point. He must have told his friends something about the breakup because you hear small sounds coming from the phone as if they understand something.

Clay tries to tell you that what his friends need him for isnt important and can wait but you know that's not true. An idea sparks in your mind as you speak loud enough for all of them to hear.

"What if we just go back to your house, that way you can do what you need and I won't be alone?" You raise an eyebrow at your brother.

Clay thinks for a second and listens to what his friends say before nodding at you and smiling. He starts the car again and pulls out of the lot.
