"Okay", I sigh. Although I was the Alpha and the person in control I'll follow his orders. He's my best friend, and just looking out for his sister. I would do the same with my sister Ellen.
"I'll eventually get used to it, just give me a week or so to get this all in my head. Got it?"
"Yeah I got it, I'll leave her alone for tonight. I promise, you don't have to be looking out for her in case she's with me because I'll be with the guys".
"Hmmm, you're mature for once. What's happened the Carlos I know?"
"He's in love", I smirk. Devon rolls his eyes and grins over at Auburn.
"You're one lucky guy, I hope you know that".
"I do, no one is as lucky as I am to have an amazing, unique mate. Hey, maybe one day we'll be brothers-in-law", I wink. His face pales.
"Oh god! THAT'S WAY WAY INTO THE FUTURE! This is all too much to handle", he sighs.
"Oh come on, what's wrong we've always been like brothers and then when we do get married we'll be real brothers then. I can't wait". He laughs and pats me on the shoulder.
"Maybe one day Carlos, if you can win my sister's heart. You better think of a plan if you want her soon".
"Oh don't worry, I'm already thinking of one".
Auburn's POV:
The rest of the night was so fun, although I didn't get to be with any guy. My brother didn't leave my sight, unfortunately. But I still had fun with Hannah and Rachel. Carlos never did see me later, he went off with his friends. I was kind of hoping to talk to him. He was probably with some girl, why should I care I hate him. Oh who am I kidding I liked him, a lot. Okay more than a lot, this feeling was scaring me I've never felt it before.
His touch made tingles go through my body, his voice made me shiver, his body made me melt, his eyes were inviting, everything about him was damn sexy. Am I the only one who feels this way, does he have feelings for me too. He's never talked to me alone before, he's never noticed me. I always thought I was invisible to him and that he hated me like I hated him.
You just have a tiny crush on him, crushes always go away. Don't they, unless this isn't a crush and it's the real thing. What love? That's a strong feeling, I can't love my brother's best friend, the school's player, the sexiest guy ever. I just can't be in love, right?
"Auburn?" Devon asks, snapping me out of my thoughts. I look over at him. He was outside of the car, we were home. That was quick, I didn't even know we were home. I was too busy thinking about Carlos. "You coming in?"
"Oh, yeah". I take off the seat belt around me and open the car door. Devon unlocks the house and we go inside. I check my watch, it was almost half eleven. Mom and Dad should be home in a few minutes. He sits down on the couch and I sit beside him.
"I need to ask you something". I nod. "What do you think of Carlos, do you really hate him?"
"I've always hated him, I still do", I lie.
"So you're feelings for him haven't changed?"
"No they haven't changed, why?"
"Well because Carlos..... I can't tell you yet".
"Don't f*****g tell me then, you're all keeping something from me and it's driving me mad not knowing. It has to do with me so I deserve to know".
"Auburn, I wish I could tell you but I can't. I'm so sorry, you know I would if I could. Please don't hate me, I love you so much I can't lose you".
"I could never hate you, you're my big brother. I'm just angry that no one wants me to know".
"They do, just not yet". I nod. He pulls me into a hug and I rest my head on his chest. He strokes my hair and kisses my forehead. "You'll find out soon, I promise. Carlos's going to want to tell you soon so he can have you". Have me?!
"What do you mean by have me?" I ask.
"If I say, it will make me get sick, just the thought of you two being together, ugh".
"Together?!" I shout.
"s**t, I wasn't supposed to say anything", he mutters.
"Well if he wants me he's not having me, I don't want to be one of his sluts that he can just do what he wants with".
"Well good, just forget about what I said". I must have fell asleep because the next day I wake up in my bed. I rub my eyes and check the time on my alarm clock. It was almost noon and no one woke me. I get out of the bed and put some sweats on. I do my hair quickly and go downstairs. I could hear Carlos talking to my brother in the living room so I go into the kitchen. My Dad was there reading the newspaper.
"You're up late", he says, looking up at me.
"Yeah", I say, as I open the fridge.
"How was the party?"
"Great". I get some milk out and pour it over my cereal my Mom had left out for me before she went to work.
"That's good. I'm have to go see someone so will you be okay on your own?"
"Yeah I'll be fine". He gets up of his chair and gives me a kiss on the cheek. "Bye Daddy".
"Bye baby girl". He grabs his jacket with him as he leaves. Carlos and Devon come in. Carlos was standing very close to me.
"I never got to see you later on yesterday, I wish I did", Carlos says. Devon rolls his eyes.
"Yeah well I was with my friends", I say casually. I had to act like I didn't care.
"Come on lets go, bye Auburn", Devon says, looking at the clock.
"See you later", Carlos says. Devon walks out the door and when he's gone Carlos winks at me before leaving with him. My body melted, why does he have this effect on me?
