You set out to stay with your best friend for a couple of days, they were like your second family the marrisons but what you didn't know that your best friends cousin was also camping at their place to.

You heard story's about Rick's cousin Warren his name was, he was a bit of a trouble maker for only being in his early 20s or actually 20, you didn't expect him to be there to since the house was small yet a lot of people lived there.

You entered Rick's House immediately engulfed into a hug by his little brother Zak, "y/n my favourite cousin in the whole wide world" Zak beamed making you smile, "aww Zak guess what" you smiled wrapping your arms around the eight year old, "what?" He questioned looking up at you from his glasses.

"Your my favourite cousin in the whole wide world" you beamed back making Zak cheer, he knew you weren't blood related but the family classed you as their own Rick's mum always said your the child she doesn't have the stretch marks for, "Zak I thought we were best buds?" A voice faked gasped from down the hallway making you jump.

"Yeah I know Warren but y/n is better she plays video games with me" Zak said, "well Warren that's you bombed out now y/n is up so she'll not have a minutes peace" Rick laughed you shook her head going into the living room, "Rick we all know I only come here to see Zak and my auntie Lisa" you teased bringing Rick in for a hug.

"Hi honey" he smiled giving you a hug, "Hey babe" you returned along with the hug, Rick is your gay best friend/ platonic cousin he was your rock, the person you went to when things got tough.

"Oh your taking my bed, Warren's sleeping on the sofa and I'm in the room with my mum and zak" Rick said you nodded leaving your bag in the living room and went into the kitchen to see your auntie Lisa who stood by the refrigerator smoking a cigarette, "Hiya auntie Lisa's gorgeous girl" she beamed also engulfing you in for a hug, "hi auntie Lisa how are you keeping?" You asked pulling away from the hug taking your pack of cigarettes out.

Placing the stick between your lips lighting the end of it, the nicotine invaded your lungs, despite only being 17 smoking was a bad habit you had picked up from the age of 13 but really kick-started when you were 15 after the loss of your grandmother.

You were to busy talking to your aunt Lisa you didn't notice Warren brushing past you, you couldn't understand why you stucked in a breath you barely knew Warren plus he was older than you, "sorry I didn't mean to brush past you there" he smiled his dimples on full display, "Oh it's alright I was in the way" you said giving him a small shy smile.

"Aren't you a little too young to be smoking?" He asked earning a swat on the arm from Lisa, "Warren she's 18 in August leave her be plus you were doing worse shit when you were her and Rick's age" she scolded Warren let out a playful laugh making your weak at the knees 'no y/n he's your best friends cousin plus he's older than you' you snapped yourself out of your daze.

As time went on it was about 11pm you, Rick and Zak sat in the living room watching a movie, Rick on one sofa with your aunt Lisa, you and Zak on the other Zak Cuddled up to you almost asleep, you felt the seat beside you dip down immediately knowing it was Warren, "What's this we're watching?" Warren asked waiting on an answer from anyone.

"Stuart little" Rick mumbled his eyes still fixated on the tv, Warren turned his head to you seeing that his little cousin was asleep in your arms, "is he asleep?" you asked unsure, "out cold, can tell your his favourite only other person he Cuddles up to his my aunt lisa" he chuckles, "I feel honoured" you jokes both of you chuckling, "plus i always had a nack when it came to looking after kids" you shrugged.

Ten minutes later it was time for Zak to go to bed your auntie Lisa put him to get calling it a night leaving you, Rick and Warren in the living room, "I'm going for a smoke" you sighed getting off the sofa and into the kitchen, lighting a cigarette and a can of soda from the fridge.

Your head was going crazy with all the thoughts about Warren he was so attractive and kind, easy to talk to but he was your best friends cousin and he's 22 and your 17 almost 18, deciding after you cigarette to also call it a night.

The next morning you slept in being woken up by Rick who was playing his PlayStation, "your awake" he said as you rubbed the sleep away from your eyes, "what time is it?" You asked curiously peeling the covers away from you, "it's 12 o'clock" he said his eyes fixed back on the tv.

You went into the kitchen making a cup of coffee trying to wake yourself up, your aunt Lisa staggered into the kitchen tiredly, "morning" you mumbled pouring the hot water into the coffee mug, "morning sweetheart" she yawned tiredly, "coffee?" You asked your aunt Lisa shook her head, "who's making coffee" you heard Warren's voice from the kitchen door.

"You want some?" You asked holding up the coffee pot, "Yeah thanks" he smiled you poured him some coffee into a mug handing him the hot beverage, taking a sip before pulling out your cigarette packet pulling out a cigarette lightning it taking a drag.

You barely spoke to Warren that day too busy with Zak once he got home from school, telling you how his day at school went, playing random games showing him games you used to play Rick also joining in with you both.

The next morning was Saturday your aunt Lisa and Rick had to go to see a family member leaving you and Warren alone to look after Zak, who was watching TV, you sat on the sofa tuned into the tv Warren sat on the opposite sofa you couldn't help but feel butterfly's in your stomach you were alone with Warren sure Zak was there and you couldn't do anything because of that plus your age but you couldn't help but feel nervously excited about it.

"Have you heard from rick?" Warren asked seeing you texting on your phone, "Yeah he's with daisy right now" you informed you knew daisy as Rick's cousin you were friends with her but since Rick's mum and dad split up a few months ago you seen less of her and Rick's dad's side of the family.

"You want anything from the store?" Warren then asked getting off the sofa grabbing his jacket, "cigarettes" you smiled handing him some cash Warren nodded taking the money, "Zak do you want anything?" He asked "doritos" he mumbled still fixated on the tv screen, "will you be okay with him for five minutes?" Warren asked knowing it wasn't your responsibility to look after a kid since you came here to see Rick, "Warren I literally study to work with kids plus I raised my siblings with my mum I'll be fine" you chuckled.

Warren left leaving you Zak you decided that maybe you should put on some makeup and get ready for the day since you'll be going back home, you dreaded it you loved being home but not as much as you used to, you have three siblings that are over 10 years younger than you the youngest being five and the oldest being 7 and the middle being 6 you loved them dearly they were you whole world but it all came crashing down.

Your father was abusive to both you and your mum which led to social services taking the kids out of yours and your mum care, you mum left your dad but it didn't get better that's how you were studying childcare then moving into social care learning to be a social worker as a step to get them back and to help family's going through your situation.

You never blamed your mother you understood why she never left all those years, guys like your father manipulate you into thinking you are worthless and dependent on them getting inside your head, you resented your father multiple attempts to give him another chance thinking he's changed but he never did so you shut him out of your life for the better.

Sitting back on the sofa with your makeup bag in hand you started getting ready, "are you going home today?" Zak asked noticing that you were applying makeup, "Yeah buddy but I'll be back next week I promise" you said "but I don't want you to go I wish you could live here" Zak sighed you couldn't help but smile your heart warmed at zaks statement, "aww buddy your the best little cousin ever" you said trying not to get emotional.

By the time Rick and Lisa got home you had to go home your bag packed a taxi on its way you gave your aunt Lisa a hug she also gave you a kiss on the cheek, "you going to be okay?" Lisa asked always wanting to make sure your okay, "Yeah I'll be fine aunt Lisa I'll be back next week" you chuckled pulling away from the hug.

You then gave Zak a guick hug and a kiss on the top of his head followed by Rick, "let me know when your home honey" he smiled you nodded before walking down the hallway, "I'll see you later y/n" Warren called noticed you were leaving you couldn't help but blush thankfully he didn't see, "see you later warren" you said closing the door you couldn't help but smile the whole night but since that weekend you wouldn't see Warren for a long while.
