"What's that?"I asked Alexa.
She jumped up, startled, then immediately tried to hide the letter.
She knew how protective I was of her and how I always scared all the dozens of boys who made moves on her, away.
"Uhh, it's nothing."She said.
I smiled warmly, right before Hydroteleporting it out of her grip.
She tried to stop me from reading it, but I went on, my eyes glowing brighter with every passionate word I read.
This was the worst of them all, who knew just a letter, by a six year old...(seven, I guess that's a common mistake) could be so... emotional.
I turned to her then asked with a double voice,"Who gave you this?!"
She looked at me with pleading eyes then said,"Please don't scare him, he's a nice guy."
"Oh really? How nice?"I asked, not making an effort to hide my rage.
"I...I don't actually know... I've never met him, but he's been sending me letters like this for a few days."She said.
I looked at it then she said with teary eyes,"Please, don't stop him, I beg you!"
She went on her knees and tears were pouring down her cheeks.
My gaze softened, I had never seen her like that before.
I knelt down beside her, then hugged her and she cried in my arms, then I said,"I won't, but just know, if he ever hurts you, your big brother's here to help."
"Thank you."She said, sobbing.
"Aww, don't cry...see, you've made me cry!"
I burst into tears then she giggled as I said,"I don't want to cry anymore, I want to laugh, so..."
She widened her eyes then laughed and kicked her legs as I tickled her.
Alex watched from his side of the room, through his eye lids, then turned over and started to shed tears, there were two reasons for his tears, but both were of sorrow...
Alexa was silently sleeping and I went out for a run, when Alex stood up and walked to her bed...
Then carassed her cheek.
She stirred and her eyes fluttered open as she mentioned my name, but no one was there.
If the staring wasn't weird enough, Alex started behaving weirder towards his sister.
He started following her into the shower, lying on her bed, touching her all over and following her around, he still bothered her though, but heaped this on top and I still couldn't read his mind.
Alexa was at school one day, walking to her next class when she bumped into a boy and dropped all her stuff.
They both tried to pick them up at the same time and bumped their heads together. They looked up and for a moment, were lost in each other's eyes, right before slowly standing up.
He blushed and gave her her stuff then smiled and walked away.
She didn't know why she felt butterflies in her stomach, and wondered whether to tell me or not, she knew I'd need to know about that.
Through the day, she couldn't stop thinking about that mystery boy, but didn't meet him again, until lunch.
His name was Trevor and he was an American student who recently moved into South Korea.
He had blonde hair and eyes which were the most perfect mix of green and blue and was the cutest boy she'd ever seen, other than her brothers.
When he got into the lunch hall, he seemed to be looking for something, or someone, then immediately marched up to her the moment he got a glimpse of her.
He smiled and introduced himself, so did she, then after a little small talk and being teased by the lunch hall...they felt sparks.
She had to tell me and our parents about him and my mom was so excited when she heard of him.
"He sounds like the dream guy..."My mom said,"...and like your crush."
Alexa looked away from her then played with her feet then finally looked back at her, with hope in her eyes then asked,"Do you think he'll like me back?"
My mom smiled then pushed the hair away from her face, right before saying,"Alexa, you are the most amazing girl I know, if he doesn't like you back, it's his loss, but I'm sure if everything happened just as you said, he sure likes you back."
She smiled then hugged her then followed her to the car.
I was a little skeptical about this Trevor kid and wanted to know his entire family lineage, but controlled myself because my sister really liked him.
Alex just couldn't stop teasing her about it, which she often cried about, but she never fought back.
Alex, didn't give up though, and on top of his bullying, weird actions, he had to add teasing.
Of course he was heavily punished, but he didn't budge, and found one way, after the other, to ridicule, his delicate sister.
One night, after Alexa had cried herself to sleep due to all the teasing and insulting words she had gotten from Alex because of Trevor, Alex was still staring at her, he hadn't slept an inch and regretted making her cry.
He then went to lie down beside her.
I came from my morning run and saw Alex sleeping by his sister and hugging her and smiled, that warmed my heart, so I pulled the sheet over the both of them, then left.
Alexa woke up to see Alex right next to her and for a second was startled, but then smiled and said,"Good morning Alex."
He woke up with a start and yelled,"Ew! What are you doing on my bed?!"
She giggled then said,"This is my bed, silly."
"What?!"
He looked round then yelled,"Then what am I doing on your bed?!"
"I don't know, I thought you came to lie besides me."
"What?! And why on earth would I want to lie with a weirdo like you? I'd rather stab my heart with my own spine than do that!"
She felt a little hurt as he got up suddenly then ran out of the room.
She started shedding silent tears then I appeared beside her then sat beside her and she cried in my arms then I said,"I'm sorry, your brother's just... complicated."
"No, it's okay."She said.
"I sensed him coming to sleep by you, and he did it willingly, I'm sure he regretted teasing you."
"Really?"
I nodded.
She smiled then hugged me again, thanked me, then left.
