Teen disasters

Chapter 7

   It's been a month since we took care with Alex of my little siblings, and today I'm going to his house to help take care of his brother. He has been acting too strange; At times he loves me and is super loving but in others he just walks away without saying a word, strange things but hey I'll find out why.

   When we leave the institute we go straight to his house, his brother Gastón is already in his room since he was ill. And between that he does not like to take care of boys, less if he is sick and that is why he called me to help him.

"Uh ... what do I do with him?" he asks me when we are in the kitchen. "I never cared for a sick person, do they eat?"

   I look at him raising an eyebrow as if to say "Are you serious what you are asking? Are you stupid or do you train day and night?"

"How can you not eat? Don't you eat when you are sick?" I speak separating word for word. "You know what? Let me prepare food for him and give him his medications".

"Sorry. But I swear I don't know what to do".

"Okay" I speak rolling my eyes because I can't believe it. "Shall I make you eat too?"

"If you insist so much, go ahead".

   After spending the afternoon with Gastón lying with his head on my legs and a cold cloth to lower the fever, Alex half asleep in one of the armchairs and finally me watching Shadowhunters on Netflix in silence so as not to wake either of us; I cook dinner for them.

"Guys" I wake them up moving, Gastón more slowly than his big brother. "Dinner is ready".

   They nod and go to the dining room where he had made soup (very elaborate, you see?). We eat in extreme silence, as you can tell that both of us have just got up. Gastón was not very hungry but it is the most understandable if he feels bad, although I make him finish if or if dinner because he needs food in his body.

   When he finished eating, I accompany Gastón to his room to cover him well and place the cloth on his forehead again, while Alex stays downstairs. As I go down the stairs I hear that he is talking on his cell phone.

"Well ... yes, yes, I'm going ... tell me the address" I keep going down there, I don't care if he sees me. "Goodbye Melisa".

"Melisa?" I ask him as soon as I get to his side.

"Yeah uh ... she's a friend" he smiles nervously, I know that's not true. "Can you take care of Gastón for a couple of hours?"

"Of course, he's like my little brother. By the way, he had a fever again so I gave him an ibuprofen".

"Well, anything call me I'll take care of you right away. And thank you, thank you, thank you".

   You're welcome? I don't answer him anything, I'm sure he's already going to that Melisa's house to have s*x with her no more, apparently he doesn't like the idea of taking care of his sick brother too much and I understand it but he leaves me alone.

"See you" he greets when he leaves but I do not answer him.

POV ALEX

   Let's see, I know that Eliana likes me and don't get me wrong, but I'm not 100% wanting to be in a relationship with her, that's why I've never told her. What she wants is probably that but not me, I think I like her too but if it didn't work out we would lose the beautiful friendship we have and it's the last thing I want.

   Now I am going to the house of Melisa who is a girl I met at a party. Clearly she is not interested in the thing being for one or two nights and I like it. I don't use girls, because I explain to them what I'm looking for from the beginning and if they accept it, it's mutual and that's it.
