when Ella had fallen asleep in my arms I carefully picked her up and took her to my room; I gently placed her into my bed and pulled the duvet over her and gave a kiss on her head then headed back inside
"It's okay she will get used to her new school and make new friends and if she really wants to see her old friends I suppose I could take her back so she can go see them for a bit," I said walking in
both my brothers nodded
"So when is her furniture coming?" I said facing Xander
"They should arrive sometime tomorrow," he said
"Alright then" I got up and headed to the cupboard to get some drinks and cups then went back in and started pouring the drinks in each cup
"How is the company going?" Xavier then asked
"It's fine for now, just stressful," I said taking a sip from my cup
"Could you transfer money into my account?" he then said,
"Did I not just put money into your account yesterday?" I questioned
He nodded
"So? what happened to all that money?"
"Spent it all" he admitted
"What the fuck do you spend all this money on fucking hell"
"Games," he replied blankly "At least it's not drugs"
I shook my head "I'll transfer some later"
"Thanks," Xavier said staring at his phone "Xander when you getting a girl?" he randomly spoke up
All of a sudden Xander got up and put Xavier into a headlock
"Don't think that really concerns you, bro," he said holding his grip on Xavier's neck
"What the fuck! Get off me!" Xavier shouted
"Stop fucking shouting there's a kid in the other room for god's sake," I said
"Let me fucking go!" Xavier kept shouting elbowing Xander right in the ribs
"Xander let him go he's giving me a headache," I said rubbing my temples as Xander let Xavier go
"You're crazy" Xavier added while trying to catch his breath, then all of a sudden we heard whimpering
"Do you hear that too?" Xander said looking at me
I immediately got up and went to my room to see Luella tossing and turning in bed
"m-mummy, mummy come back I miss you" she whispered scrunching her
"Luella" I whispered trying not to scare her even more
