"Remind me why you're out here?" I asked Thomas as we trudged through the slush. I'd meant to sound snarky and a little petulant - I was the younger brother, after all - but the way my teeth were chattering meant I barely managed string together a collection of sounds that were even vaguely close to what I'd meant to say. Hell's bells, I hated winter.

Thomas smiled his ridiculously charming smile. "Nothing wrong with a little company," he said easily.

"Oh yes, bonding over hypothermia is such fun. You don't have to use that smile on me, you know," I added. "I'm not about to put you out on the pavement for being inhumane enough to make me walk my own dog."

Thomas shrugged. "Maybe I like smiling at you," he said, and I suspected that he rather wished he had chattering teeth to blame for the way it came out heavy and just a little sad.

Neither of us were really used to this whole brothers thing. Though it seemed like I might not have been the only one who wanted to be.

I sighed. "Okay. But next time we're doing something inside. I am not a fan of freezing to death."

Thomas smiled again, just for me. "I'll make some hot chocolate."

Could have been worse. But I was absolutely making Thomas walk Mouse by himself until the weather got better.
