85

I looked up at Nathan, opening my mouth but soon realized the two brothers were messing with me when I saw Nathan shoot Jordan a secretive smirk.
You should have seen your face. Nathan laughed, causing me to punch his side which did nothing.
Thank god, I would not be able to handle a single more ounce of testosterone in this household. I raised my hands.
Good thing Nathan doesn’t have any. Max said.
Nathan shifted his stance as if he were about to pounce on Max, causing him to falter and stumble back a few steps.
I laughed at Max’s scared face which he quickly recovered from, standing straight again and glaring at his younger brother.
That’s a dope shirt. Jordan pointed out, causing me to look down at Max’s enlarged upside down face.
Thanks, a homeless man gave it to me. I spoke seriously.
You love it ! Max yelled, before walking off down the hall.
Where were you before ? Jordan asked with a raised brow towards Nathan.
Ryland. Nathan simply answered.
Jordan nodded in understanding, showing that he knew the whole scoop.
Can Jordan partake in our plan too ? I asked Nathan excitedly.
I was just about to fill him in on it. Nathan smiled down at me.
Okay shnookums. I’m gonna go find my other friends now. I said, placing a loud kiss on Nathan’s cheek, before skipping off down the hall.
She doesn’t actually call me shnookums. Nathan defended to his younger brother who was laughing.
Don’t be embarrassed my pumpkin spice latte ! I yelled over my shoulder, before barging into Nathan’s room.
I found the rest of the boys all crowded around the television, playing Xbox.
L. S ! Come play this new game Nathan got for me ! Dustin exclaimed in joy.
I walked over to see the screen and laughed. He had gotten him Minecraft.
I love Minecraft ! I exclaimed, swiftly stealing the controller from Max’s hands and plopping down in front of the TV.
Hey ! He protested.
We spent the next hour lounging around and taking turns playing the game, eating sugar cookies and joking at each other.
I was truly content with these boys. I just hoped we could regularly relax and be happy like this without having the stresses of an evil chipmunk trying to sabotage your family and trying to form a plan to rescue an innocent young girl.
We all eventually ended up joining Nathan and Jordan in the living room once Landon decided to rage quit in Minecraft and refused to let anyone else play. Now we were all sat around the couches and drinking eggnog, made by yours truly.
I came out of the kitchen, after having scavenged around Nathan’s pantry for the last box of sugar cookies.
It warmed my heart to see everyone talking and enjoying themselves. Even though it was tragic that their little sister couldn’t be here with us, I was grateful that Landon and Tyler were doing a good job of keeping everyone entertained. Nathan, Max, Jordan, and Dustin all seemed to be having a good time too.
Finally, they were all feeling more optimistic and not letting the reality sink in. They all believed in my plan thankfully, and I had my full faith in it that it would work.
I mean, outsmarting a chipmunk isn’t that hard.
Realizing as I entered into the room that there were no more seats available, I started to sit on the ground but it seemed like everyone noticed this and all of a sudden I was being offered multiple seats as all the boys stood up like proper gentlemen.
I really felt like a princess right now. Maybe I should act like one too.
Taking my time walking around the room and looking down at my options, I finally settled with sitting down on Landon, since he was the only one that hadn’t offered me his seat.
Just as my tush was about crush his lap, I felt strong hands grip my waist and all of a sudden I was being pulled into Nathan’s lap.
I yelled out in protest and struggled to get free but of course no one helped me. Landon just laughed at my failed attempts and snagged the box of cookies from my hands.
Hey ! I yelled, reaching back for the box which he had already popped open and was sharing with Tyler and the others. I was restrained by my strong and muscular boyfriend unfortunately. Times like these, I wished he was a lanky leaf instead.
Nathan I swear you will not live to see another day if you- My threat was cut off as I felt a rag being tied around my mouth in a split second.
The sound of laughter filled the room as all of the boys lost it. Even Dustin was trying his best not to giggle.
Are you freaking kidding me !?
I brought my hands up to my neck but before I could begin to undo the rag, Nathan had my hands in his behind my back. I fumed in anger, twisting around to glare at him.
The bastard had the balls to wink at me and give me a lazy smile.
Ignoring my death glare, he faced everyone else, pulling me snugly against his chest and holding me in place.
I started to plot up my escape as he began talking.
Anyways, as I was saying. Jordan’s staying here for a week, since I asked him to. Nathan said, looking over at Jordan who had a happy and excited looking Dustin in his lap.
But why would you ask him to stay if we’re gonna be gone ? Tyler voiced out everyone’s thoughts. Well, everyone’s thoughts except for mine.
Well after going over the plan several times, I still can’t believe none of you ever asked me what would happen to Dustin. Nathan said, giving everyone in the room a long hard look.
I cleared my throat several times before Nathan finally decided to glorify me.
Everyone except for Sky. He muttered. I smirked behind the rag. I remembered how earlier today after going over my plan and finally getting it approved by Tyler and Landon, I had discussed separate plans for Dustin. I knew he’d be alone by himself and was surprised no one had even bothered to ask about Dustin. It really angered me.
Max cleared his throat rather loudly right as Nathan opened his mouth to speak again.
Letting out an annoyed sigh, Nathan looked over at him. Everyone except for Sky and Max. Max smirked proudly.
I noticed how Dustin just ignored everything going on right now and started playing a game on his older brother Jordan’s phone.
