╔═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
Let 'em wonder how we got this far
'Cause I don't really need to wonder at all
Yeah, after all this time I'm sᴛɪʟʟ ɪɴᴛᴏ ʏᴏᴜ╚═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝


::ᴜsᴇʀɴᴀᴍᴇ::
Hello, Patches101! My username is xLastGoodbye, but please, call me Last. ^^
::ɴᴀᴍᴇ::
I would name this lovely boy Alexei. I figured that since Vladamir was a Russian name, I would go with something Russian as well.
::ɢᴇɴᴅᴇʀ::
Alexei is a male. Even if a decision had to be made, I couldn't see him as anything else.
::ʀᴇʟᴀᴛɪᴏɴsʜɪᴘ ᴡɪᴛʜ ʙʀᴏᴛʜᴇʀ::
Alexei and Vladamir have a close, brotherly relationship, unlike most siblings. There's one catch though- their relationship is very intense. The two are always competing, usually in silly or stupid things like who can dress the best or who can make the football team or stuff like that. They never fight with each other though, except maybe a few little quarrels through words, then a few hours apart, then they're back at it again. Alexei looks up to Vladamir like Vladamir looks up to Alexei, so they're pretty even in competing. As they do love to go against each other, Val and Alex (as his friends call him) make a perfect team. They're unstoppable when they work together and when they're against each other. They usually start at each other when Alexei calls Vladamir "Vlad". This follows with the name "Lexei" and Alex challenges Val to a competition of some sort. No matter what the problem or title to win against the two, they will always look up to one another like the brotherly friends they are.
::sᴛᴏʀʏ::
(extra 1)
"Ha! I win that one, Val!" Alexei shouts at his older brother, triumphantly holding the skateboard high above his head. "AND I managed to do it without losing my hat or tie." He yells into the wind. Vladamir was on the ground, holding onto his skinned knee.
"Oh, nice trophy Alex," he says with a smirk, "You gunna go hang it above the fireplace now?" Alexei replies with a mysterious grin. The two brothers were always competing like this- neither one of them minded at all. They enjoyed having the thrill of an opponent, someone to show what they could do.
Once Val was up and off the ground, he and Alex walked home. "You know, I'm dead if mom sees this scratch." Val says to his brother.
"Mhhmm, better not show her." Alex says, trying to see through the thick, pea-soup fog.
"It's kinda like zombie weather out here, don'tcha think?"
"Val, you know I don't read zombie books."
"Just trying to make small talk." Val says, sighing. Sometimes his brother could be a real pain. Suddenly, a dark object passes by them. "Alex.. did you see that?" Val asks.
"Dude, it's just a rock. Calm. Down." But this made Alex wonder... what was out there? He turned around for two seconds to look behind him, and when he turned back...
"HELLO! Would you like to buy some cookies?!" A skittish Girl Scout was standing in front of them, holding up a box of Thin Mints. Alex let out a small scream, Val trying to hold in laughter.
"Nothankyou" Alex said, grabbing Val's wrist and rushing away.
When they were far enough away, Vladamir snickered. "Girl Scouts are NOT scary."
"Yes they are! Did you not see her beady little eyes? Girls Scouts are-" Alexei looked down to see another Girl Scout.
"Cookies?" And another.
"Do you want some cookies?"
"Buy some cookies!"
"Cookies."
"Cookies."
"Cookies."
Alexei woke up in a cold sweat, the image of his nightmare fresh in his mind. He looked to the left- outside it was foggy outside. He looked to the right- There was Vladamir, sleeping in his bed. Sighing with relief, Alex shoves on his hat and tie and shuffles downstairs for some breakfast.
Halfway finished with his Mini Wheats, Val comes down, energetic and happy. "Yo, Lexei! Wanna go skateboarding?"
Alexei's eyes open wide for a second, then he calmly responds, "No thanks, Vlad."
His older brother looks shocked for a second, then calms down. "Kay then," He says a bit sadly.
But at that moment in all of time and space Alexei's phone buzzes on the table. Unlocking it, he sees one new text.
The number on the screen was blocked.
The text message read, "Do you want some cookies?"
