Bab 15: Part 15: Truce
Alison
"Alex, what the hell did you do?" Alison yelled in his face as soon as they reached her dorm room.
"Well we had lunch with your savior and I invited him for dinner at the house on Friday."
"NO! You invited him to spend the night. Dad said dinner NOT THE NIGHT!"
"True but do you think dad is going to let you drive back late at night."
"Maybe seeing that I wouldn't be driving alone!"
"Do you really believe that?" Alex raised his eyebrow.
"Ugh, I had hope okay."
"Yeah sure."
"So why did you push so much for him to go to the dinner?"
"I'm curious to see the role he will play in your life."
"Ha if so you better invite Olivia"
"What? Why?"
"Because if you want to see what role Dean might play in my life. You will grow up and finally ask Olivia out on a date."
"What no! Not happening she doesn't feel that way about me, and I don't want to ruin our friendship."
"Alexander Walker, for being top of your class and a so-called genius you are an idiot."
"No need to discredit my hard work in one go Alison."
"But it is the truth you guys are head over heels for each other but neither of you are willing to take the chance, all because you are scared of rejection."
"I am not afraid of rejection okay I just don't want to ruin years of friendship over the chance that she might like me back."
"Darn Dad was right he did raise two girls."
"Take that back right now."
"Nope because it's true you don't want to ask out Olivia because you are a scared little girl. So this is what it's like being the older stronger sibling."
"Alison stop that won't work this time, not with this."
"Too bad when I was finally starting to look up to you."
Alexander
Alex turned around and tried to block her out.
"Well, it's such an amazing example you are setting. If you won't invite Olivia I guess this means I don't have to take Dean right. Oh my goodness this is perfect! This means I will get to eat in peace and avoid a stressful car ride. Thank you so much Big Brother. "
At this, Alexander faced her once again and sighed. Knowing very well how much their father wanted to meet Dean he knew he would have to concede and give in to her request.
"Fine! I will call her when I get home."
"Nope you will call her right now or I will cancel on Dean."
"Alison why are you doing this?"
"It is for your own happiness big brother you will thank me one day."
"Ugh fine."
"So it's a truce, you call Olivia and invite her now and I will take the imbecile to dinner Friday, deal." Alison finished holding out her hand for him to shake.
"Deal," and with that Alex shook her hand then took out his cell phone. After opening his contacts and tapping on Olivia the phone began to ring and he brought it up to his ear.
' Hello
Hi Liv
What's up Al?
Nothing much really, um I just wanted to invite you over to my dad's house this Friday we will be having a very special dinner.
Sure I will be there, if you don't mind my asking what's the occasion?
Alison finally sang in front of a crowd and she might have fainted and one of her classmates helped her so dad wants to celebrate Alison's singing and thank the boy.
I knew she could do it I'm so proud of her
We all are, so I will pick you up at 7 Friday night?
Sure thing.'
"Bring an overnight bag Olivia" Alison shouted knowing that Olivia would hear her.
Olivia laughed and the sound made Alex smile and forget what he was about to say.
'Sure thing tell her I will take my bag Al, and I can't wait to see you then bye.
Bye Liv.'
And with that Alex finally ended the call and glared at his sister who was smiling like an innocent kid.
"What have you done?"
"Relax if Dean has to spend the night so does Olivia plus it's not like dad doesn't have the space, and if you finally get courageous maybe you finally ask Olivia out on a date," Alison finished with a smile."
"Ugh, sometimes I wonder how it is I put up with you over the years."
"You put up with me because I make life interesting and you love me."
"True on both counts but also because I have faith in you and I can't wait to see who you become."
"Yeah, yeah whatever."
"You might not believe it but everyone around you knows you will have a bright future."
"Now you are just trying to bring my hopes up. Change of topic. Do you know the sons of dad's old colleagues?"
"Which colleagues?"
"Paul Williams, Richard Smith, and Nicholas Brooks."
"Oh yeah, David and Chase right?"
"Yeah, they said they went to the same college as you."
"Yes, I have seen them around campus, they are a year below me if I am not mistaken."
"Ah okay then, I thought it was weird that dad took me with him for dinner seeing that he could have taken you instead."
"Maybe he wanted to spend time with you. I mean with you being away from home for school and how closed off you normally are we barely spend time with you and personally I enjoy the time we spend together and try to make much of it. Reason why I decided to take a little detour on my way back home."
"Well, if it makes a difference I am glad you came today. I really enjoyed having you here."
"Even though I forced Dean to eat lunch with us?"
"Even though I forced you to invite Olivia?"
"Okay yeah, even though you did that I had a great time. I love you Alison and I'm glad that I am blessed to have you as my little sister."
"I love you too Alex and I think it's the other way around because I got the most supportive and loving brother anyone could ask for."
Smiling at her statement Alexander couldn't help but put her in for a bone-crushing hug.
