A loud knock at the door startles us both and we jump up. Ben looks at me in alarm, but I pull myself together and bend down to find my clothes.

“Who is it?” Ben shouts, putting on his tight, grey boxer shorts.

“Danny! What’s going on, are you opening or what?” Ben’s eyes widen. Okay, he’s overreacting a bit. He stares at me seriously.

“What?” I put my shirt on.

“Go into the bedroom.” He points to the hallway.

“Are you serious?” I ask.

“Talia, don’t start now, okay? Go into the bedroom and keep quiet. I’ll get rid of him as quickly as I can.” He puts on his black pants and gives me the rest of the clothes to take with me as I go and hide in the other room. I glare at him one last time and reluctantly go sit on the bed like a good girl, in my panties and shirt. I leave the door slightly ajar, trying to hear the goings-on in the living room.

“Hi, what took you so long?” I Danny’s voice fills the hallway.

“I was just on my way to the shower.” Ben makes up an excuse. That does explain why he’s only half-dressed. No way Danny will guess what he did with his little sister on the sofa just a few minutes ago.

“Are you coming to the pub?” Danny’s voice gets louder, and it seems as though he’s sitting down on the sofa. I hope Ben’s going to get rid of him, because I have no intention of sitting here all night.

“No, I need to finish a few things on the computer before the weekend.”

“What’s going on with Ronnie? John was concerned today.”

I hear the sound of the fridge door opening and the clinking of bottles reaches the bedroom.

He’s not going to have a beer now and leave me here, is he?

“I don’t know. I’m also worried,” Ben answers in a tone that leaves no room for doubt. This Ronnie, whoever he is, must be really important to him. “Well, I’m just going to throw a shirt on.” I hear footsteps in the hallway. The door opens and Ben enters the bedroom, closing the door behind him.

He’s holding his brown, leather bag, which he sets near the door and walks over to me. Still sat on the bed, I look up at him. He stands between my legs and runs his hands through my hair.

“It seems that your brother has decided to stay for a beer,” he whispers and looks at me seriously, however, I swear I can detect a tiny smile creeping up at the side of his mouth.

“And what am I supposed to do in the meantime?” I grumble and roll my eyes.

“My laptop is in my bag. I’m sure you’ll be able to work it. Can I trust you to not to do anything crazy and stay here like a good girl?”

“And if I say no?” I smile sweetly, not planning on causing any problems.

“I’ll go with him to a pub and leave you to find your way home alone.
