ELIZABETH'S POV
"Michael! How are you?" I said stunned by his presence. "I haven't seen you in ages. I thought you were dead!" I exclaimed, nearly jumping into him arms for a hug.
"Well, I'm here now." He said resting his head on my shoulder.
Michele is Charles's brother, older brother. He was my best friend until he ran away from home without saying.
No one knew why he left (except maybe his parents).
"Come in," I said, gesturing for him to move forward.
We walked into the living room, hand in hand.
Even though we hadn't seen each other in years, I'd never forgotten his face (not just because he and Charles are look-alikes).
"Ellie, who are you talking to?" I heard Charles yell from the living room.
"Someone is here to see you," I yelled back.
"Hello, brother," Michael said with a smirk walking towards Charles.
"What the f**k are you doing in my house?" Charles said.
Sudden tension built up between the two.
"I just came to see my brother that's all."
"You should be happy to see your brother. You haven't seen each other in a while."
"You sound like my mother right now," Charles said rolling his eyes.
"We are happy to see each other, this is just the way we express it. Isn't it right brother."
"Right," Charles replied walking away.
"Why don't we all just go and sit in the living room," I suggested.
We all walked to the living room while David one of the employees here came and took Michaels bags to the guest room.
"So Michael, when are you leaving. You already saw us so I don't see a point of you staying here any longer."
"That's very rude, he just got here."
"And so, anyways I'm leaving. Ellie don't forget our deal, see you at four."
Oh yeah, I almost forgot I had to go to this place with him. He still hasn't told me where.
"So what do you wanna do?" Michael asked.
"I don't know, I'm down for anything you want."
"How do the movies sound."
"OK sure, but you paying."
"Deal."
The closest cinema was about ten minutes away from the house.
"So which movie do you wanna watch? What about Annabelle "
"I could hardly look at the cover of the movie, how I'm I supposed to watch the movie."
"Don't worry, I'll be there to hold you when you scared."
"I'm still not watching it."
"OK, I guess we don't have a choice but to watch The city of wonder."
(A/N: I don't know if its a real movie, I just made it up.)
"OK, I'll go buy the popcorn. The movie starts in twenty minutes."
After getting the popcorn we went to our sits before the movie finally began.
It took two whole long boring hours before the movie finally ended. I was finally relieved. Besides, it was getting uncomfortable with Michael next to me and his hand on my lap. I spend most of the time slapping his handoff instead of watching the movie. I guess I can never say I watched the movie.
"Michael it's three now, can you remind me when it's half past. I have to get back home then.
"Yeah sure. Are you hungry because there is this new place in town I would like to show you."
He took me to this restaurant where they make your food in front of you. We met some of Michaels school friends, Lea and Joe. They were pretty awesome.
We ended up staying a lot longer than expected.
When we got home it was already eight p.m. I opened the door to see a very angry looking Charles. Michael must have noticed this because he just went upstairs leaving me to deal with him alone.
"You know, when I make a deal I make a deal. I never break it."
"I'm so sorry I completely forgot. I forgot my phone and I didn't have a watch."
"Anywhere hope you had fun with Michael."
"Can you stop being an ass. He is just being nice and charming. It's not his fault I completely forgot."
"If he is so nice charming why don't you go and just marry him."
"If I could I would just consider it."
"He is not the nice guy you think he is!" Charles yelled.
I could see the seriousness in his eyes as he looked at me.
What wasn't he telling me?
