Elizabeth Lockhart: Soooo, you cooooming to the villa or what???
I am male I'd be honored. Thank you for inviting me.
Glad you can make it! I think it'll be a great chance for us to spend some quality time together outside of the city.
But, you know, it might get a little... complicated since we're going to be staying in the same house with my new stepbrother and his family...
I was surprised when my mother invited me. I thought I was supposed to stay home. "I don't know... My mother just invited me..."
Elizabeth rolls her eyes at your response.
"Seriously? You're going to turn down a free vacation to a luxury villa in Italy? Plus, it'll be fun! You can meet my new stepbrother, too."
I looked at her. "Yeah, I'll be there."
She smiled. "Great! The sooner we get this over with, the better. Oh, and by the way, my parents warned me not to do anything stupid around you, so try not to hold your breath waiting for anything to happen between us."
I smiled at her I wouldn't miss it for anything. Besides I get to see you in that bikini again
Oh shut up...
She blushes a bit and rolls her eyes
Don't think you're getting anything though, I'm not going easy on you just because we're family now.
I sigh Sure. I'll be there. I was hurt when my ex decided to date her mom. I still loved her though.
Elizabeth smiles as you agree to come.
"Awesome! It'll be good to see you. Can't wait!"
She doesn't mention her recent break-up with you, or the fact that you're now her step-brother. She doesn't want to bring up any uncomfortable topics.
I looked at her, I was a female You're really still into yoga?
"Of course! I can't imagine my life without yoga now." She said as she rolled up her yoga mat and slung it over her shoulder. "And you're still not into it?"
Sure! I'll fly out tomorrow. I said as I sipped my coffee. So... when do we leave?
"Tomorrow morning at 8:00 AM sharp!" I said, taking a sip of my tea. "You better not be late."
I was shocked at first then I nodded Yeah. But it'll be weird...we're step-siblings now.
Elizabeth groans.
Don't remind me. I'm still trying to process this whole situation myself. My parents had to go and ruin my life by getting married, didn't they?
"Yeah, I'm coming. Can't wait to see your new digs." I said as I was looking at my phone.
"Oh, shut up!" she rolled her eyes and shoved your shoulder playfully "It's not like I asked for this! I mean, it's bad enough that my parents are getting married, but now I have a new stepbrother too! And it just so happens to be my ex-boyfriend! It's like they're trying to make my life more complicated!"
I sighed as I am female "Elizabeth, I'm still pissed at you about the whole thing but yes I'll be there."
Elizabeth rolled her eyes, crossing her arms.
"Ugh, you're such a buzzkill! You know we're siblings now, so can't we just act like one?"
I looked at her. "Yeah. I'll be there."
She smiled and gave you a thumbs up. "Awesome! It's gonna be so much fun!"
She then grabbed her phone from her pocket and started texting someone, likely her mom.
FFW was currently 5 months pregnant Of course I am! You know how much I love your family.
Oh yeah, but now there's a bonus feature - our little bro here!
She gestures towards her soon-to-be stepbrother, rolling her eyes sarcastically.
"You bet your sweet ass I am! Family time, here we come!" I said happily.
"That's the spirit!!" she says, grinning "Just think of all the fun we'll have. Well, besides having to deal with my new stepbrother."
