Chapter 78
“You are not Stephanie Tanner, dude.” I roll my eyes.
“You seriously made him hold all the pizza boxes?” Octavia asks Flynn, rolling her eyes and ignoring me.
“That’s what servants are for.” Flynn shrugs.
“I’d kick you if I could see right now!” Adonis‘ response comes out slightly muffled due to the pile of pizza boxes covering his
face.
I chuckle before walking over and taking four of them, his face becoming visible.
“Thank you!” He exclaims. I smile softly at him and he grins brightly at me.
I place the pizza down on the coffee table and Adonis follows suit.
“Got you two Hawaiian pizzas all for yourself, fat ass.” Flynn grins, throwing an arm around my shoulder.
“I’d hit you for calling me a fat ass if you didn’t just say you bought two Hawaiian pizzas for me.” I fling his arm off me. “And I am a fat ass, so I guess I can’t hit you for telling the truth…dumbass.”
“We should play-”
“We are not playing Strip Poker.” I cut Flynn off, taking a bite out of my slice of pizza, the four of us sitting on the floor around the coffee table.
“Why not?” He whines.
“Because Octavia sucks at Poker and seeing my sister naked is not something on my bucket list.” I roll my eyes. “And no one wants to look at your tic tac dick.”
Octavia covers her mouth with her hand, giggling silently while Adonis chokes on his mouthful of pizza and bursts out laughing, falling backwards.
“I hate you.”
“Why? I’m lovely.”
Flynn stares at me. “In what world are you lovely?”
“In what world do you have a dick?” I shoot back.
“Leave me and my dick alone!” He shouts, using his hands to cover his crotch.
“Let’s play Scrabble!” Adonis suddenly exclaims, his mouth forming a wide grin.
Why is he so cute?!
I don’t know, Pablorina.
Flynn and I blink at him before looking at Octavia then back at Adonis.
“No.” The two of us deadpan in unison.

“Someone just put down a piece and start already!” Flynn whines impatiently.
Here we are, playing Scrabble.
Don’t ask.
All I’m going to say is that Adonis has a really adorable puppy face.
Damn him.
“You start, then!” I kick his foot underneath the coffee table.
“Fine!” He kicks me back before putting a piece down. “I will put down my ‘A‘ to make ‘A‘.”
“I will add to your ‘A‘ to make ‘At‘.” Adonis puts down a piece.
“I will add to your ‘At‘ to make ‘Rat‘.” I put down an ‘R‘.
We all look at Octavia to continue.
“I will add to your ‘Rat‘ to make ‘Biostratigraphic“.” She puts down a bunch of letters.
“Oh my God!” Flynn sighs out heavily, falling backwards as Adonis blinks down at the board.
I take a deep breath and drop my pieces on the table before flipping the board along with the letter pieces.
If you haven’t realised by now, Octavia’s the smart twin.
“And this is why we never play Scrabble.” Flynn pats Adonis‘ shoulder. “Because of that coffee–obsessed freak.”
“You’re just jealous because I’m smarter than you.” Octavia shoots back.
“You’re smarter than everyone!” I exclaim. “You hacked into the public’s library’s computer from our house and erased any data of overdue books and you still payed the fee!”

“I didn’t want that on my record!” She defends herself. “And don’t act all innocent! You forged dad’s signature on a permission slip to go to sex camp!”
Adonis starts laughing loudly again while Flynn chokes on air.
“In my defence, I was half asleep and thought I was forging his signature on papers for something else.” I say after a moment
of silence. “Plus, I didn’t actually go to sex camp. I spent that week drinking Pina Coladas in Hawaii.”
“Papers for what?” Octavia questions.
“Military school.”
“Military school?” She repeats.
I nod. “For you.”
“For me?!” She shouts, making several different expressions.
“You ate the last Eggo and I didn’t want to live with you anymore!” I defend myself.
“Did you say you were in Hawaii?!” Flynn interrupts, voice raised slightly. “How the hell did you end up there?”

I shrug. “Student visa.”
“Wha-”
“Can we watch Batman: Under the Red Hood?!” Adonis cuts in, his violet eyes wide and hopeful. “Please!”
“Jason Todd is the hottest in the bat family, hands down.” I state as we watch Jason take of his helmet and throw it at Bruce’s feet. Flynn and I seated on the floor with Adonis and Octavia on the long couch. “Especially Dexter Soy’s version.”
Octavia scoffs. “No way. Dick Grayson is the hottest. Have you seen his butt?”
I scoff back at her. “Have you seen Jason’s thighs?”
“Well, I have a great butt and great thighs, so I guess I win,” Adonis cuts off our arguing. “Now shut up and watch the damn
movie.”
We shut our mouths and focus on the T.V.
As soon as the movie ends, Octavia plays Grease.
She and Flynn fall asleep halfway into the movie. Octavia resting on the arm of the couch and Flynn with his fat ass head on my lap.
Suddenly, Adonis lets out a sneeze.
