Older Brother

“You’re in my way.” He said, faking annoyance.

“Yeah?” I answered. He reached out to my side and I squeaked, pulling away.

“Ticklish are we?” He teased, poking my sides again.

“Yes!” I squeaked, finally letting him pass.

I smiled to myself. He had always been like a big brother to me. He was one person who I had looked up to for the longest time I could remember. Him and his brother we amazing, and I loved them dearly.

They treated me like a sister as well. I loved every second of it, because I knew if I really needed to I could go to either of them. That thought comforted me to the extreme. I had always wanted an older brother… Someone who would look out for me no matter what, but also play around and mess with me.

I started walking back to the table, having grabbed myself a Pepsi for dinner, but stopped.

“Come on!” He said behind me. I laughed but, moved to let him pass. I sat down and he sat next to me, both of us jumping into our family’s conversation.
