Cee

I was not able to sleep immediately even though I was a bit tired from my day with Chris. I was quite wondering what their boy's night out was all about but I don't want to ask Bran because he will surely tease me. I also don't want to ask Chris because he might think that I don't know how to mind my own business. And because I couldn't sleep, I opened my laptop and looked at the photos in my hard drive.

I browsed through some photos of me and my grandmother and I couldn't help but miss her. We were very close and I admired everything about her. I miss our daily routine and if she didn't die, I wouldn't be here and if I wasn't, I wouldn't meet Chris so I guess there's always a reason for everything. And I know grandma is now happy with grandpa so that's okay with me.

I also browsed through some photos of me and my friends in Cebu and I came across something that caught my eye. A photo of Josh. He was one of my suitors there and I almost gave him a chance if I didn't find out about his real intentions. at first he was very nice and sweet that I almost gave in. Almost. If it weren't for Jessie who heard him talk about me with his friends, I would have been in a loveless relationship. You see, his real intention was to get close to me so that he could get his hands on my family's money because he found out about our family's status. And since their family was on the verge of bankruptcy, he then thought that maybe being my boyfriend would somehow give him a chance to save their businesses but good thing Jessie heard him one day. I was a bit devastated about it because I was starting to fall for him because he courted me for almost a year. But I was glad that it didn't happen because my brother would surely go nuts about it.

Speaking of Bran, I heard his car pull up so it means that he and Chris are now home. I want to go out and meet them but I'm pretty sure that Bran would tease me when he sees me because he might think that I was waiting for them so I just stayed in my room and waited for their doors to close. I was about to shut down my laptop, I felt a bit hungry so I decided to go down and maybe drink a glass of milk so that I could sleep.

On my way to the kitchen, I noticed that the lights were on so I thought that maybe it was my mom or dad fixing up a late night snack but when I arrived in the kitchen, I saw that it was Chris. He had his back against the door so he didn't see me arrive. I was about to say hi when I heard him mumble to himself and say,

"Should I text Cee? Maybe that's a bad idea because she might already be sleeping. Or maybe I should so that it's going to be the first thing that she sees when she wakes up. Aaargh come on Chris! what's gotten into you!!!"

It was so cute hearing him mumble. I wanted to listen more to what he was about to say when someone suddenly poked me and made me scream so hard. When I turned around, Bran was laughing so hard and I had to punch him in the shoulders because I was so embarrassed to shout with Chris around. It was then that I remembered that Chris was there and that I was secretly listening to him. I blushed so hard and tried to act cool but Bran continued to laugh so hard.

Bran: You should see the look on your face Cee hahahahahaha

Cee: One day I'll get the chance to get back at you and I would be laughing so hard

Bran: In your dreams sis. In your dreams

Cee: I hate you!

Bran: You don't mean that hahahaha what are you doing here anyways? I thought that you were already sleeping

Cee: I couldn't sleep so I figured that a glass of milk would help me. But after what you did, I think sleep would be very difficult for me

Bran: I'm sorry sis. What were you doing there standing like a fool?

Cee: Ahh uhmm... I just got here and saw someone here. I thought it was someone else

Bran didn't look at all convinced about what I said but didn't question me any further. He then went to the counter and poured two glasses of milk for the two of us and then asked Chris if he wanted one as well. Chris was silent all throughout our banter and he looked a bit amused to see Bran and me fighting. He gave me a smile that again made me blush. He then asked me how long I was standing behind his back before Bran poked me and I lied and told him that I just arrived. He then asked me if I heard anything but I said no so he just smiled and asked me why I was not able to sleep. I just told him that I was missing my grandmother and he assured me that everything's going to be fine in time. I smiled and went on to drink my milk while Chris and Bran talked.

Bran and Chris decided to watch a movie in the entertainment room since they were not yet sleepy and they invited me to join them. We decided to watch Hachiko - A dog's tale. Its about a dog who was very loyal to his master that he waited for his dead master to come back on the train station until he died. It was me and Chris who were seated at the big sofa while Bran laid on the sofa bed in the corner. We were so engrossed in the movie that I didn't notice Chris offering me the blanket so he had to touch my hand and squeeze it. When he did that, I once again felt the spark that I first felt when we first met. I think he felt it too because he smiled at me and blushed a bit.

We continued to watch the movie and when it was finished, we then decided to watch another one and this time, it was Bran who decided what to watch next. He chose to watch Wolverine and in the middle of the movie I was so sleepy that I decided to doze off. It was around 2 in the morning that I woke up and I noticed that I was leaning on something a bit hard and that's when I saw that I was sleeping on his lap. He was also sleeping and I looked around to see if Bran was there and he was also sleeping on the sofa bed while the movie was still playing. I guess we all dozed off while watching the movie. I looked at Chris and he looked so cute sleeping. I quietly stood up and fixed the blanket that I used and laid it on top of Chris. He looked so peaceful and cute that I was tempted to kiss but I restrained myself. I then checked if my phone was on silent mode before taking his picture. He looked so handsome. I would surely be able to have a great sleep now because I already have his picture. I secretly smiled and went up to my room leaving the two boys asleep in the entertainment room.
