(Eric's POV)
I am currently living at my cousin's house. And have been for the last 2 months because my parents left my siblings and I to defended for ourselves but luckily my aunt and uncle didn't want us to be separated, so they brought us into their house. But the good news is that our cousins Arthur and Alex who are twins are ok with us living here. My older cousin Maria is cool with us staying too. Arthur and Alex actually see me as their third brother. The three of us are that close. And always have been
I go downstairs and see little Mikey my little brother having trouble getting up on the kitchen chair. He is only 5 years old
"Here buddy let me help you" I said and helped him up
"Thanks Eric" He said
"No problems. Brothers help each other out. Remember that alright" I said to him pointing at his chest
He nods. Then my cousin Arthur who is my age comes down
"Hey coz" I said to him
"Hey coz" He said back giving me a bro hug. "Oh Eric there are people who you have to meet today" He said to me
"Oh yeah? Who?" I asked confused
"Well first my girlfriend Ellie. She's very sweet. Then her friends. And some of her friends are single" He said with a smirk
"Arth, man I don't know if I want to date anyone yet" I said going over to the fridge for apple juice
"Why not? Her friends are hot" He said
"I wonder what Ellie would say about you thinking of her hot friends?" I said thinking
"She wouldn't be happy. Anyways Eric. You have been sad about Ava since you moved here. She broke up with you. Well she cheated on you but anyways the point is...Move on" He said
"Wow Arthur thank you for being considerate" I said and walked upstairs to my room.
I lay on my bed and thought to myself. I'm really annoyed at him right now. I heard a knock on the door
"If its Arthur don't come in!" I yelled
"Coz I'm sorry" He said through the door
I sighed deeply. I got off my bed and went to open the door.
"I didn't mean it in a mean way E" He said
"Your right i should move on. But I don't think I'm ready. Can you just....be my cousin and take my side alright?" I asked him
"Of course Eric. I'm always gonna be on your side. Oh by the way Ellie and her friends are coming over now for the pool. So get dress" He said
"Alright" I said. Arthur left so I could get dressed for the pool that my aunt and uncle own.
Once I am ready. I went downstairs and saw more of my cousins and family up for the day
"Hey brothers and sisters" I said kissing each of my siblings head
"Hey Eric" My brothers and sisters said
"Where you going E?" My cousin Alex said. He's twins with Arthur
"Well Alex, your brother Arthur here" I said hitting Arthur's back. "He said that his girlfriend and her friends are coming over for the pool. So I am ready for the pool" I said with my sunglasses in my hand
"You look ready" Maria, their older sister/my cousin said with a smile.
"Thank you Maria" I said hugging her
