"Brendan? *knock knock* Sorry for stopping by randomly but- OH MY GOD!"
"Uh Van. Hi."
"Is that... OH MY GOD WERE YOU AND HAYLEY JUST MAKING OUT?!"
"Uh, yeah...?"
"So what, are you two dating now?!"
"Yeah."
"OH MY GOD REALLY? WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME? EXPLAIN YOURSELVES RIGHT NOW!"
"Um... Uh... See, it just sort of happened?"
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT JUST SORT OF HAPPENED?!"
"Uh... I could really use some help right now, Hayles."
"HAYLES?! WHAT, SO YOU HAVE NICKNAMES NOW?!"
"I think I'm good Brendan, thanks."
"OH NO, DON'T YOU DARE TRY TO SNEAK OUT OF THIS."
"Calm down, will you?"
"CALM DOWN?! I JUST SAW YOU BOTH KISSING! OF COURSE I WON'T CALM DOWN!"
"Nessa, just take deep breaths. In and out. I swear, we'll answer whatever you want us to."
" *deep breath* Okay. Okay. First, Brendan, put a fucking shirt on. Hayley, fix your hair. Both of you, meet me in the living room in five."
"Man, she can be bossy."
"Tell me about it."
"NO TALKING. GET OUT HERE RIGHT NOW!"
After five minutes,
"So, how long has this been going on?"
"About two weeks now."
"So are you properly dating or is this some friends with benefits shit?"
"No, no, nothing like that. We're dating."
"Okay. God, to think this happened because of me. Now, Brendan, you listen to me real good. Hayley is a nice girl, so don't you dare break her heart. And you too, okay Hayley? Take good care of my brother."
"God Van, it's not like we're getting married."
"AM I CLEAR?!"
"Yes, absolutely."
"Yep."
"Good. Okay, so I came to drop some food off. I'm going to go now. From next time, hang a fucking do not disturb sign on your door."
"Okay. Yeah, sure whatever you say."
"Yes, of course."
"Okay. Man, I can't believe this. I mean, it's cute and disgusting at the same time. Ugh. Whatever. Bye."
"Bye."
"Bye."
" *door shuts* "
"You have a very scary sister."
"Nope. She's your best friend first. You have a very scary best friend."
"That doesn't even make any sense."
"Of course it does."
"Whatever. What did she bring us to eat anyway?"
"I don't know. But I'm not hungry right now. Are you?"
"Hmm. Surprisingly not."
"Then maybe we should get back to what we were doing before Van interrupted us."
"Maybe we should. Lead the way, Mr. Brown."
