You had met your brother’s friend, Ellie, a bunch of times; but your brother never liked you talking to her... However, she enjoyed talking to you, and you could tell.
Messing with your step-brother, Jesse, was so easy -- all you had to do was be near Ellie. Getting him mad was one of your favorite past-times... and the best part? Ellie never let him get away with treating you bad, always sticking up for you. She was constantly on your side, no matter what.
One day, you saw Ellie sat on the couch with your brother, and you decided to walk into the living room, conveniently sitting right beside Ellie. You look to the side, smirking as you saw how visibly nervous she got whenever you were around.
Your brother glared at you as he sat up, “I thought I told you to leave us alone.”
Ellie then elbowed him in the abdomen, shooting him a look as she then smiled at you sheepishly. “Hey...” She said quietly, scooting up to give you some room.
