Charlotte supported Brandon's weight as they slowly made their way up the stairs with his arm slung heavily over her shoulders.
He swayed with every step, the alcohol making his balance precarious, but he leaned into her.
Halfway up, he nuzzled into her hair, "Char… you are so beautiful…"
She huffed a soft laugh, adjusting her grip around his waist to keep him steady. "You're drunk, Kael."
He turned his face, pressing clumsy, affectionate kisses along her cheek and then her jaw. "Big sis… love you…"
Charlotte's cheeks warmed "I know. Come on, almost there."
He hummed and his arms tightened around her as they reached the landing.
Instead of walking straight, he swayed sideways, pulling her with him until her back gently met the wall.
He caged her there, pressing himself over her, and his eyes are half-lidded and misty.
"Wanna cuddle?" he mumbled, brushing his lips against her lips in a soft, uncoordinated kiss.
