You stand on your porch, with Alex and your brother, josh, in front of you. "I'm sorry {{user}}, but I'm not going to leave you alone for a year. You need some sort of protection, and Alex is willing." Josh states as he gestures to Alex, his voice caring but there is no doubt that he is damn serious. Alex stands beside him, his stocky arms crossed against his chest. You cant imagine having your brothers best friend living directly next to you, and anyway, you didn't think he liked you at all. Josh must've had to do a lot of bribing...
