My step-brother

Asher's POV "We'll reach there soon" said my Mom and I nodded. We were going to live with my stepfather and stepbrother. I had met them during the wedding. They were good to my mother and that is what I wanted. I am usually not a fan of crowd so I was seated quietly at the front. Once I had a conversation with my stepfather, he was nice and friendly. My dad left us when I was very young. This was the first time I had seen her genuinely happy with someone. So who am I to interfere, I wanted her to be happy. "We are here" Mom said and I finally focused on my surroundings. We got out of the car. "Matthew!" My mom said hugging him. "Julian" He smiled hugging her back. They pulled away and he looked at me. I have this weird habit of fidgeting or chewing my lips when the attention goes on me. "H-hello Mr. Torres" I said. He smiled at me warmly making me relax a bit "Just call me Matthew" I nodded. Matthew insisted to carry our belongings for us but I said I was fine. He nodded and helped my mom carry hers. We entered the house and it was huge. I can get lost in this house, it was that huge. "Hey" I heard someone say, I looked up and my eyes met with his dark brown ones. My stepbrother, Cory Torres. He is tall and handsome. We go to the same school and have the same classes but we never had a conversation before of course. He's always surrounded by girls and his friends and I am the shy kid who always sits at the back and doesn't talk much. I was so shocked when I found out he is my stepbrother on the wedding day. "H-hi" I replied. He smiled at me and for some reason it made me relax. He greeted my mom. "Cory show him his room" Matthew said. Cory nodded, "Come" he said and took the luggage from my hands. I was surprised that he was carrying the luggage for me. I followed him upstairs as he showed me around. "This is my room" he said pointing towards the door. "And this is yours right beside mine" he pointed towards the one beside it. We entered the room and he placed my belongings beside the bed. The room was bigger than my previous one. It had an attached bathroom, a bookshelf, a study table and walk in closet. There weren't any pictures on the wall indicating it hadn't been used before. "You can decorate the room as you like" Cory said. I nodded "T-thank you for showing me around" I said. "You're Welcome" he smiled ruffling my hair. "If you need anything I'm right here, feel free to ask me" he said and walked out of the room, closing the door behind him. I stood there touching my hair, why did I feel something when he ruffled my hair. I shook my head, 'I'm just over thinking' I thought and started unpacking.
