Third Person POV
"Why are you studying in London instead of here in the same school as JJ?" Lotte asked AJ.
"It's because I was granted a foreign exchange student scholarship and it allows me to study in London for a year," AJ replied.
"If there's anything else you want to know about my twin brother, just ask me," JJ said to Lotte. "I know my brother more than he knows himself."
"Oww!" JJ complained when he got a painful flick on his forehead from his twin brother.
"Don't listen to him, Lotte," AJ said.
"How long are you gonna be here before you have to go back to London?" Lotte asked,ignoring JJ's remark about his twin brother.
"I have to be back by the end of this week," AJ replied.
"That's too bad," Lotte said. "That doesn't give us much time to know each other better."
"Oh, so you wanna get to know my brother better???" JJ raised an eyebrow at Lotte.
"Why, are you jealous of Lotte wanting to get to know AJ better?" Euro frowned at JJ.
"Of course not!" JJ protested at Euro's question.
"Sure, manure," Euro said, turning to walk away.
JJ grabbed Euro's wrist.
"Where are you going?" JJ said.
"I'm going home," Euro replied grumpily. "You and AJ can fight over Lotte. I don't want to get involved."
Euro tried to tug his wrist away from JJ's grasp but JJ held it tight.
"If there's anyone I will fight for, it's you, Euro," JJ said seriously, looking Euro straight into his eyes.
Euro was about to say something in response when Lotte interrupted excitedly, "Hey, y'all! I got an idea! Why don't we all hang out at my place! You can all ride with me in my mom's SUV and then after that, I can ask my mom to give you a ride back to your homes, or even better maybe you guys can stay overnight. Anyway it's a Friday so we don't have school the next day."
"AJ and JJ can go with you," Euro said. "I'm going home."
Euro tugged once more against JJ's grasp on his wrist.
"No you're not," JJ said, stubbornly holding on to Euro's wrist. "Or at least, you're not going home alone. I am going with you."
"My mom is not expecting me to bring home a guest," Euro said, tugging more strongly this time against JJ's grasp.
"Then we can hang out at my house," JJ said, "Mom always has extra food ready for any unexpected guest. You know Mom, she won't ever turn you away. You're like a son to her. After all these years, you should know that by now."
Euro looked undecided.
"Okay," Lotte said, looking only at AJ. "If JJ and Euro don't want to hang out with me, then it's just gonna be you and me. Are you okay with that?"
"Sure!" AJ replied heartily.
"Let's go then," Lotte said, taking AJ by the hand and leading him towards the school exit gate.
"JJ, tell Mom I'm having dinner at Lotte's place tonight," AJ called out belatedly to his brother as he allowed Lotte to bring him to Lotte's mother's waiting SUV.
"That leaves you and me," JJ said to Euro. "Let's go and make up for AJ's absence."
Euro relented and allowed JJ to lead him towards the school exit.
"There better be a delicious dinner waiting for me," Euro said, still pretending to sound grumpy but failing to hide his smile.
"If it's not to your liking, I will make for you whatever you like," JJ promised.
"I was kidding," Euro said, this time no longer bothering to hide his happiness. "You know me, I will eat anything edible."

Euro stepped down from the curb too soon and almost got hit by a speeding car.
Luckily JJ was able to pull him back up but Euro lost his balance.
Again, luckily JJ was there to catch him in his arms before he could hit the ground.
JJ did not let go of Euro right away,
He looked deeply into Euro's eyes.
Euro met JJ's eyes but felt his blood rushing to his face. He quickly straightened up and broke away from JJ's arms, dusting off his uniform.
"Don't give me such a fright ever again," JJ scolded Euro.
"Why, would you care if I got hit by a car?" Euro asked.
"Are you flirting with me?" JJ teased Euro.
"Shut up," Euro said, feeling the blood rushing to his face once more.
