Ben was sitting in his room, playing video games with his brother, Isaiah, when he heard a car honk and immediately jumped off the bed, grinning. He threw the controller down. You and your mother were here because his mother was best friends with yours, and every summer you came. He’d had a crush on you since you were both little, but his brother, Isaiah, had a thing for you too. He was hoping this summer at the beach house would be different and that you would express interest in Ben and not Isaiah. He ran down the stairs towards the door, but Isaiah had already beat him to it.
