[ stretches when p.e. class is finally over, feeling a little bit like jelly, a little bit like a boulder & a little bit of weakling. shakes his arms a bit to free himself of that feeling, rubbing the back of his neck as he silently tells himself that though the class would only grow to be more strenuous as the semester goes on (especially during the stress-high weeks of exam prep), he'd still enjoy it, not regret it. etcetra. but at the moment, he stinks, even to himself. after spending a rude amount of time at the water fountain (drinking his fill, ignoring his surroundings as usual), he changes directions toward the lockers, intent on taking a quick shower, changing out of his gym clothes & perhaps heading home early for the day. ]

Alright, big brother.

[ gives anthony one more long glance before she exits again without another word. ]

[ it's actually only ten minutes before he snaps out of his power nap, blearily looking around. doesn't seem to realize where he is for the moment, staring confusedly at michael (the only person he recognizes at the moment) before he yawns & rubs at both eyes with his palms. stretches, then gets to his feet. ]

Thank you for the smoothie. [ stops. thinks. shrugs. ] I think?

[ looks up from his homework, pointing over to the counter. ]

Anne has it.

[yaysoccer.livejournal.com]

... [ sighs when he sees only her eyes peeking over the counter. ] Anne. Come here.

[yaybrother.livejournal.com]

[ stands up straight and rushes on over, handing over the smoothie to anthony wordlessly. ]

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ stops in mid-yawn when she appears with his smoothie, making him settle back down onto his chair. looks up at her. ]

Uh. Thank you. Sorry.

[yaybrother.livejournal.com]

It's alright. [ walks back to the counter, picking up a small bowl of something. sets it down in front of anthony. ] Your gummy worms.

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

. . . !!

[ peers at the bowl in an almost disbelieving fashion, face taking on a pleased blush. nabs one of the gummy worms to munch on it happily. doesn't speak until he's properly swallowed. ] T-Thanks. Again.

[yaybrother.livejournal.com]

[ smiles widely at him, pleased with his happiness. ]

You're very welcome.

[yaysoccer.livejournal.com]

[ stretches a bit and stands, pulling his attention to anne for the moment. ]

Bathroom. [ begins to step away. ] Keep him entertained.

B-But...

[yaybrother.livejournal.com]

[ looks over at anthony when michael disappears. fidgets a bit. ]

Um... so... y-you're on the soccer team, then?

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ stares after michael, continuously munching on the gummy worms. only takes breaks to take a sip of his smoothie & to answer anne. shrugs. ]

I think so? He said I passed, and he's treating me to food.

[yaybrother.livejournal.com]

[ takes a seat on the edge of michael's chair to be on eye-level with anthony. ]

That's wonderful. Congratulations on passing, Anthony. It's not easy to please him so quickly.

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ glances down for a bit, fidgeting a bit. ]

Uh. Thanks. . . [ another gummy worm down. ] He's Spartan strict.

[yaybrother.livejournal.com]

[ laughs lightly, moving a hand to straighten some of the highlighters and papers skewed on the table. ]

Yes... he's always been like that, though. I think you will get used to it in time.

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ gathers his smoothie into both hands so that he can lean back in his chair to sip at it contently. ]

Soccer shouldn't be pain and suffering.

[yaybrother.livejournal.com]

Mm. I'm sorry about that. He's very passionate about soccer.

[yaybrother.livejournal.com]

[ then looks rather pleased as she points to herself. ]

He loves soccer more than he loves me!

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ almost chokes on his smoothie. ]

. . . P-Probably. Not true. Probably.

[ smiles is subdued a bit, merely to show her appreciation in a less enthusiastic way. ]

You're very kind.

[yaybrother.livejournal.com]

[ stands when she sees michael approaching, beaming at him happily. ]

Welcome back, big brother!

[yaysoccer.livejournal.com]

[ nods to her as a means of greeting, taking his seat again before looking over at anthony. glances at his drink. ]

How is your smoothie? [ grabs a pen, spinning it a bit. ] Is it to your tastes?

[cutemajor.livejournal.com]

[ glances between the siblings once, then nods in response to michael's question. takes another sip. ]

I like it. It's very good. [ seems to consider something, then nods again to himself. ]

[ gives a short nod and hum of approval before he goes back to his homework. ]
