At some point, I must have dozed up, because I woke up to a hand lightly shaking me awake.
> My eyes slowly opened and I stifled a yawn with the back of my hand. My eyes were finally beginning to focus onto the figure in front of me, whom just so happened to be the one and only Sebastian King.
> Sebastian said softly, leaning into me as he unbuckled my seat belt. I must not have been in my right mind when I agreed to let him carry me into my house, past my worried brother, sleeping Will, and concerned Nate. He easily carried me into my room, and placed me softly onto the bed. I didn't protest as he pulled off my heels off and tucked me into the bed.
> My head snapped to the right, and I found a smile forming on my face when I saw Nate leaning against the wall. The living room was now barren, and I couldn't help but feel slightly saddened by the sight. Memories from when Danny and I first moved in filled my mind. I was only thirteen when I first moved into my new house, a year after my parent's death.
> I told Nate, setting my suitcase at the end of the stairs. We both stood in silence, taking in the emptiness of the house.
> Nate began, > There was hope tainting his voice, it showed in his eyes too.
> I finally said, >
A small smile lit up Nate's face at the sound of Sebastian's name, confusing me to no end.
> I snapped, crossing my arms angrily.
He laughed and smiled even more. > He raised his brow up, insinuating the worst.
>
Nate just continued to smile and gaze off in thought. I turned away when I felt a light blush rise to my cheeks, but whether it was due to my annoyance with Nate or something else, I do not know.
> Scowling at Nate, I turned around just as our front door opened. In walked Danny and Will, both of whom were looking extremely annoyed at each other. When they finally saw me, an apologetic expression crossed Will's face.
>
Danny looked between Will and I, displeased by my reaction.
>
> I said, ignoring his uptight attitude. > Nate joined in with my laughter, and the corners of Danny's mouth jerked upwards, while Will gave me a glare.
> I mentally cringed at the thought of the smile that was very likely spreading across Nate's face like wildfire.
> I jutted out my chin stubbornly, while the boys just shook their heads at me, knowing better than to protest.
