Chapter 15
Ding!
Paul sounds the bell at the Salvatores and kept praying he is on time he'll probably have a earful to take.
"Damon please get the door that's probably Paul". Aurora shouts from inside the room. They were also almost ready, he came at the right time.
"I'm not your younger one girl". Damon shouted back.
"I know but the poor soul outside shouldn't be part of the internal strife should he". She shouts back.
"Well it's normal for the grass to suffer when the elephants fight". Damon shouted back.
"No response is heard from upstairs".
"That girl knows you'll get the door". Brandon said with a laugh.
"Damn her, you spoilt her too much". Damon said going to get the door.
"I didn't, you did and if you weren't an agent of assassination your conscience would bear witness". Brandon said jokingly.
"Would you keep your flipping mouth shut we're at home". Damon replied him just before opening the door to let Paul in.
"How're you my favourite junior". Damon said as soon as he opened the door, they had all attended the same secondary school afterall and Paul had been a very obedient one causing Damon to dote on him before graduation and after.
"Good morning bro Damon". Paul greeted back with a smile.
"It's Damon you likely gay". Damon said he never really liked the fact that the boy was overly soft and although he was well aware it was due to his acquaintance with more of girls than guys since young it didn't help.
"Good morning Damon, I've been good how're you". Paul said still smiling sheepishly. Damon was like a role model to Paul. He admired everything about the guy from his fashion sense to his smoothness and his wisdom and rich knowledge.
"You have gotten worse since we last met and that is heartbreaking". Damon said with a disappointed look.
"Damon let that boy into the house before Aurora thinks you're bullying her friend". Brandon shouted from the sofa he was sitting on.
"Well, if eldest brother didn't say so I was about to ask if there is a prohibition against people coming to see Aurora". Aurora said as she descended the stairs, they were coming down when she heard Brandon's remark.
Damon shifted from the door and allowed Paul in before shutting the door and going to grab a seat so the banter could proceed in full force.
" No problem actually if only Aurora would do the honours of opening the door for her guests herself".
"Can I just point out that it was me at the door not a guest". Paul said finally finding his voice from the fanstruck state he was earlier.
There is a brief silence in the room, everybody looking at each other like they lost words to say.
"Can I just point out the fact that you guys picking matching outfits to the amusement park at you age is childish". Damon said, breaking the silence.
"We're not wearing matching outfits". Arianna replies him.
"Not you and her now, her and him". Damon said using eyes to point out that Paul and his sister were putting on similar checkered shirts.
"Oh". Came the singular reply from Arianna due to the talks she hadn't taken in Paul's outfit but he was indeed wearing similar outfit with Aurora from shirt to sneakers while hers was totally off, were they going to go around with Aurora and Paul dressed like couples and she looking like the tag along girl.
"Paulo, wow you reading my mind now". Aurora said with a smile, totally unaware of the anger and jealousy building up in the person beside her.
"We I guess it's telepathy and years of hanging out together". Paul said with a blush so proud of himself for picking out the outfit and also glad Aurora didn't look angry they looked like couples in the outfit.
"Okay shall we go see what wonderland holds for us ". Aurora said walking forward only to realize Arianna had spaced out since earlier and was still in whatever planet she went off to.
"Ari, are we going or you're enjoying your visit to mars". Aurora said clapping her hands in Ari's face to bring her back.
"Yeah, yeah let's go". Arianna said still looking lost, she couldn't say she wanted to change clothes Aurora wouldn't like the delay and wouldn't it make her look like she was jealous.
"Let's go or we're not leaving this place". Paul said looking like he couldn't wait to get out of the house.
"Yeah shall we".
"Wait up, how're we getting there". Paul said he had told Williams to leave after dropping him off since Aurora hadn't said anything about not having a car drop them.
"I'll be dropping you guys off let's go". Brandon said rising up to his feet.
"Eldest brother is the best, Damon learn from him alright you're almost of no advantage". Aurora said while walking past Damon.
"We all go then I'm not staying in this house alone". Damon said and also got up for the love of wonderland Aurora didn't give any retort and they all just walked out of the house and over to Brandon's jeep and drove out with Damon riding shotgun.
"Aren't you both too old to be tagging along to an amusement park". Aurora said when they were already on the road.
"We wouldn't be tagging along if you guys were old enough to drive". Brandon replied.
"We wouldn't be going to the amusement park either if we were old enough to drive, which by the way I want to learn". Aurora retorted.
"Yeah that's true by the time you're old enough you wouldn't even have time to sleep, being an agent isn't anything small". Damon replied then suddenly the realization of what he had said hit.
"What agent bullshit are you talking now". Aurora said.
"Don't mind him have a loose mouth and you'll be best friends with gibberish, you guys have fun we'll be here till you're done so have your fun and home we go ". Brandon said covering up the agent talk.
"It's going to be no fun if you guys come here rushing us okay". Aurora said trying her best possible not to flare up not even her brothers are allowed to ruin today.
