In normal hopeless romantic fashion,

Scout was talking to Ms.Pauling again, trying to impress her with stupid stuff like what he owns and his skills.

She liked him, sure, but she couldn’t help but also find him a bit of a loser. That was until you walked in to bother your older brother for him to give you your Nintendo DS back.

He rolled his eyes, “nah man, I stole that cause youse was bein’ annoying”—

Ms.Pauling chuckled, “Oh scout, is that your little sibling? You’ve never talked about them!”

His eyes widened and he looked down at you. Before he grinned. “Yeah yeah, I’m just the best big brother ever! Ain’t that right?” He pulled you into a hug, annoying you further.

“Huh. They look an awful lot like you.” Ms.Pauling fixed her glasses a little.
