- Sunday Night - 

Ding Dong! 

I heard the front door open. 

I heard some talking downstairs. 

Austin and his family must be here! 

"She's upstairs. If you want to go upstairs, you can." I heard my mom say. 

"Okay, thanks," Austin said. 

Then, I heard footsteps. 

Knock Knock

"Come in." 

My bedroom door started opening. Austin came in. 

"Hey, Cupcake!" I said. 

He chuckled. "Hey, Babe." 

I smiled. 

He sat down on my bed. 

Then, he kissed my temple. 

"Hey, Austin can you tell me a little bit about the party tomorrow?" I asked. 

"Sure, so basically the party starts at 9:00 at night. And, there will be lots of drinking, but obviously, we don't have to, if we don't want to. And don't worry, I'll protect you." He said. 

"Thanks," I said. 

He nodded. 

Knock Knock

"Come in." 

"Kids, dinner is ready." Austin's mom said, she looked at us and smiled. 

Then, she walked in.

"Austin told me he had a pretty girlfriend, but I never thought that she would be so pretty." She said, while looking at me. 

I smiled. 

"Thank you so much. And Austin never told me that his mom was so nice." 

I looked at Austin and nudged his arm, playfully. 

He smiled. 

"Thank you, dear," his mom said. 

I nodded. 

"Well, dinner is ready." She said. 

Austin and I nodded. 

Then, she walked out of the room. 

Austin and I started leaning in, and then we kissed. 

We smiled and then we stood up. 

He held my hand, and our fingers intertwined with each other's. 

Then, we walked downstairs. 

Our parents smiled. 

I can't believe that they don't really mind it. Well, except for my dad...but I'm sure my mom will talk to him. 

We sat down at the table. And Austin sat next to me. 

I put some salad on my plate and began eating. Austin did the same. 

Halfway through dinner, I felt something in my thigh. 

I looked down at my leg, to see Austin's hand. 

I flinched. 

He lightly chuckled. 

"Austin, stop," I whispered to him. 

"No," he said. 

I rolled my eyes. 

Noah, who was sitting next to me, noticed that Austin's hand was on my leg. 

"What the hell?" He said, loud enough for everyone at the table to hear. 

"Language." My mom said. "What's wrong?" 

He looked at me. "Please don't," I whispered to him.

"I...just realized that I forgot to feed my fish today." He said. 

Which caused me to laugh a little. So, we kicked my shin. 

"Ow," I said, quietly. 

"What?" Austin asked. 

"Nothing." 

"Please tell me." He said. 

"Noah kicked my shin." 

"Why would he do that?" Austin asked. 

"Because he's annoying." 

Austin laughed. 

"But, seriously. Are you okay?" He asked. 

I nodded. 

-A few minutes later- 

Finally, we finished dinner. 

I got up to put my plate in the sink, but my mom stopped me. 

"Don't worry, sweetie, I'll clean it up. You kids can go." She said. 

"Okay, thanks, mom!" I said. 

Austin and I stood up and held hands as we walked upstairs. My brothers, we're behind us. 

We were about to walk back into my room, but we were stopped by my brothers. 

"What do you want?" I asked. 

"Nothing," Daniel said. 

"Then, leave us alone," I said. 

"Nope," Jack said. 

"They're trying to purposely annoy us," I told Austin. 

He nodded. 

"Run into my room on 3." I said. 

Again, he nodded. 

"1, 2, 3!" I said. 

We ran into my room, and I locked the door behind us. 

We smiled. 

"We made it," Austin said. 

"I have a surprise for you," I said. 

"You do?" He asked. 

"Yeah," I said. "Come here." 

He walked over to me. 

I put him against the wall and kissed him. One of my hands was on his face, and my other hand was in his hair. 

His fluffy, soft, brown hair. 

I smiled at the thought. 

I kissed him again. 

I felt him smirk against my lips. 

His hands went around my waist. 

I had to stand on my tippy toes to be able to reach his night. But, I liked that. I liked that he was taller. 

I was so lost in my thoughts, that I didn't even notice my bedroom door being unlocked. 

I totally forgot that there was a key to get in from the outside. 

"What the fudge biscuits!?" Max said. 

Austin and I pulled away. But, his hands were still around my waist. 

"Uh," Was all I managed to get out. 

"Bro, chill. We were just kissing," Austin said. 

"Exactly," Max said. 

"It's just weird seeing our little sister kissing an older boy," Daniel said. 

Max nodded. 

"Guys, can you stop invading my personal life, please?" I asked. 

"Ugh!" Jack said.

"Stop complaining. We're just trying to make sure you're safe and happy." Noah said. 

"Please leave," I said. 

"Whatever. We're just trying to help." Jack said.

"Well, you aren't. So, please leave." I said. 

"Fine," Noah said. 

Then, they walked out of my room. Daniel shut the door behind him. 

"I'm sorry about them," I said to Austin, 

"It's fine, baby don't worry." 

I smiled. 

I kissed him again and then pulled away. 

We sat back down on the bed. 

"Do you want to cuddle?" He asked. 

"I'd love to!" 

I lay down on the bed, and he lay down next to me. He wrapped one of his arms around my waist, and his other arm around my shoulder, and secured me. I felt so safe and loved. 

I faced him. Then, I buried my face in the crook of his neck.

He smiled. I smiled back. 

Overall, today was a good day! 

I enjoyed it. 

I have a great boyfriend. Some friends. Brothers who are annoying, but they care about me. And I have parents who will listen to me and love me until the day I actually die.
