Of course they do. He is my brother after all.
Knox
He’s all our brother.
Brogan
But he gets his swag from me.
Me
I’m speechless. Incredible job, little bro.
Knox
Brogan, let’s be honest, he’s way cooler than you were at his age.
I close out of the group as a notification pops up for our front door at the apartment. I click on it and watch as Sabrina digs out her key. She’s carrying several big grocery bags that nearly coverher face and make it hard for her to let herself in. The sight of her makes me smile. Especially when she lets out a cute growl of frustration.
Me
Need a hand?
It’s several minutes before she replies. She’s managed to make it inside so I can’t see her anymore.
Sabrina
I made it. Barely. By the way, if I had said yes, were you going to magically appear? I thought you were in Texas.
Me
I am.
Sabrina
Yes, I need a hand.
Me
Well, fuck. I didn’t think this through. Might take me a few minutes to get there.
Sabrina
My ice cream would have melted before you arrived to save the day.
Me
That would be a real tragedy.
Sabrina
Don’t I know it. I have big plans that include eating ice cream in the bathtub and blasting pop music on your big, fancy speakers.
A rough chuckle leaves my lips. I have a real vivid picture of her all sudsy, singing along to some girly bop music that makes my smile widen and my dick come to attention. Ever since that kiss, I spend half my time thinking about her and the other half reminding myself I shouldn’t.
I tap a few buttons on my phone and wait. It’s less than thirty seconds before another text pops up.
Sabrina
