⌜ chapter thirteen ⌟
Letty's eyebrows furrow as she looks at Cory — he just walked into the living room from upstairs, and he has a lemon slice in his mouth. "Hey, Cor?" The brunette gets his attention.
"Hm?" He turns and looks at her.
She pauses for a moment, and then decides that she doesn't want to know. "Nice shirt." She says, and he smiles around the yellow fruit that's still between his teeth.
"Thanks." His voice is muffled.
"Yeah, it matches your lemon." Hope mutters as she walks over to where her friend's sitting.
"Don't be so grumpy all the time." Letty says as she sits down beside her.
"But I must." She argues, and her friend rolls her dark eyes.
"Hey, when's the appointment to find out what you're cooking?"
"Tiny humans, unless you know something about Dean that I don't." Hope says, and she lets out a sarcastic laugh.
"You know what I meant." The brunette shakes her head, and her friend shrugs.
"I don't like going to the clinic."
"You have to at some point for a check-up anyway." Letty says, and she groans in the annoyance as she sinks into the couch. "Okay, that's nice." She then gets up and heads into the kitchen.
"Have fun with the lemon suckers!" Hope calls after her. "Fruit must be the only action those boys can get these days!"
"Your friend's nice." Eric says sarcastically from where he's sitting at the table.
"Hey, that's what I just said. I'm blaming the hormones." Letty tells him as she walks over to the fridge. "Hey, Morgan. I see you're finally allowed out of your room."
"Yeah. That was the longest time-out I ever had." The little blonde says, standing beside her oldest brother, and she chuckles.
"So, who's the unlucky girl?" Eric asks as he then looks back at his younger brother.
"Well, if you must know, her name is Melissa, and we're just seeing a movie." Cory says as he sits down across from him.
"With that thing on your nose?" Morgan questions, and Eric starts laughing.
"What thing?"
"It's too easy." She's busting up as she turns to high-five her older brother, who's highly amused by her antics.
