Twenty-Three: Meeting the Coric's

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Gala and Leon! Stop fighting and come eat! I've had too many pretty things broken in the house because of you two!" Angelina shouted from the kitchen.

The gorgeous girl let Leon go, but not before trash talking him a bit. "You're still a weak bitch, I see, Goretzka."

"Fuck off, Gala," He rubbed his head once he had gotten out of Gala's tough hold. "You're mean."

"Always have been, always will be."

Emilia, Leon and the Coric's were at the dinner table have a polite conversation when a fiesty Gala dropped her silverware on her plater. "I'm sorry, but this conversation sucks."

"Gala Antonella Coric! Where are your manners?" Her mother scolded her from across the table.

"I said I was sorry mum - but we're all trying so damn hard not to bring up the elephant in the room, and we shouldn't have to. We all miss Quentin, but we should be honoring the memories we have with him, and not avoiding any subjects that revolve around him." Gala took a gulp of the beer sitting in front of her.

"Q was one of my best friends, and I miss him dearly. However, I'd rather talk about him rather than acting like he was never here," She finished, wiping a few stray tears from under her eyes.

"Now that I'm a blubbering mess, I want to tell Emilia my favorite story of Quentin. And it involves my third brother here," Gala patted Leon on the back harshly, who had his hands covering his eyes.

"Please tell me it's not the story I'm thinking of," He complained, staring at her with pleading eyes.

"Oh, but it is of course, Lee," She giggled before beginning her story.

"Alright, so this was about nine years ago. Mum and dad had to take Xavier to a football tournament a few hours away, and for some reason, Quentin and Leon thought my parents were going to leave them home alone all weekend. That was your first mistake," Gala looked to a embarrassed Leon. "Why in the hell would they let two thirteen year old boys home alone?"

"Anyways," She continued. "Mother had called me earlier in the week asking if I could stay home with Q while they were away because I was in university at the time. I wasn't very happy to leave my carefree Uni life in Spain for the weekend, but i thought it would be nice to spend some time with my brother, so I agreed."

"I arrived to the house before Leon and Q had gotten out of school, and had heard the door slam when they got inside. Because I was in a kind mood, I decided to go downstairs and offer to the take the two knuckleheads to dinner. However, when I got to the dining room, I could see into the living room, and noticed they were very invested in something they were watching on my dad's laptop."

"I couldn't tell what it was until Q turned up the volume," Gala began giggling while Leon put his head facedown on the table. "Here, the two horny little thirteen year olds were watching porn."

Emilia glanced around the table wanting to see everyone's reactions. Angelina's mouth was wide open, while Elisia, Xavier, and Ben laughed at Leon's misery.

"It wasn't until it started getting heated - you know the climax part - when I noticed both of their faces starting to warm up. And right when the female started coming down from her high, both Leon and Quentin jumped up. I remember Leon saying 'Um, well, I really need to use the toilet' and running upstairs. Q agreed and sprinted to the one down the hall."

"Meanwhile, I took the opportunity to play a bit of a prank on them. I sat on the couch and grabbed the laptop off the coffee table and started rewatching the video until they came back. You should've seen their faces when they both exited their respective bathrooms at the same time and saw me sitting there," Gala let out a throaty laugh. "I'll never forget the looks on their faces."
