His Girlfriend's Brother 38. Reality Check
JACOB "---Would you do that for me? Walk in there holding hands with me?" A high-pitched whine had started to ring in my ears as a sign of how angry Mike's stupid requests made me. I wanted to scream at him, slug him, and fuck him all at the same time. My emotions were all over the place the same way Michael's personal inclinations seemed to be; I wondered if he had any idea what life was like for me as an out gay man in America. The realization he didn't drove me out of the vehicle, slammed the door behind me, and chased me as I stalked into the convenience store for beer. "Jake!" Michael called after me, confusion thick in his voice as if he had any right to be the confused one out of the two of us. I kept walking without looking at him; I almost punched him straight in the face when he had the nerve to grab my shoulder to try to hold me back. "Jacob, what is going on with you? What happened? Was it something I said?" He sounded frantic. This fucking guy---I snorted, rolling
His Girlfriend's Brother 39. Not Worth It
JACOB "You can't ask me to do shit like that, Mike!" I exploded at him, twisting in the driver's seat to make sure he was looking right at me to take in every word coming out of my mouth. I realized he deserved some kind of explanation and tried to go for the simplest, saying, "Holding hands isn't the same as messing around. It means something different to me." Mike gave me an innocent look as he asked, "How does holding hands mean different things? I'm pretty sure everyone who holds hands in public means the same thing." "And what do you think they mean, Mike? What do you think two guys who hold each other's hand in public are meaning to say?" I countered. Michael blew out a breath like I was the one driving him nuts. Like I was the one who was acting crazy! He was completely going off-script! "Well?" I snapped, beyond annoyed with him. "Well, they mean they're together and they don't care who sees, Jacob. I get what they mean! Why do you think I don't?" His jaw was tight as h
His Girlfriend's Brother 40. Can We Just Talk?
MICHAEL "---I have never been in love with anyone. Then I met you." A ringing sound filled my head as I realized I had just told someone I loved them and the first person I told was my girlfriend's brother---and he didn't want to hear it! Jacob was looking at me as if he hated me even. He snapped me back into my body with a barked order, "Get the beer! People are waiting." Wait! No. I knew things couldn't end like this. Not like this. "Can we just talk?" I asked, knowing I was pleading with Jacob but being unable to care because I needed him to listen to me more than I needed to preserve my pride. "No! We've talked enough." Jacob wasn't listening. He wasn't hearing anything I was saying and I didn't know how to make him. I grabbed for his arm and he flung my hand off as if I had a disease. Snarling at me, "Don't! Don't touch me." I lugged my beer into the house after Jacob, trying to keep up with the pace he was setting only he was a lot faster than me for all we were about t
His Girlfriend's Brother 41. You are safe from me
ALISON"What the hell was that about?" I barked at Nolan. I dragged him to the kitchen so we could talk privately after Michael left."You heard Michael. Jacob has a headache," Nolan said. Smirking his devilish smirk, he made air quotes, emphasizing the word 'headache.'"Yes, I know he was faking it. I am not talking about Michael. I am talking about you," I said and lightly pushed him.Nolan shrugged and stared at me blankly. I didn't blame him since not a whole lot was going on in that brain of his. "What did I do this time? I thought we were having a good time?""Why were you being so nice to me in front of Michael? You were all...do you want me to get you your purse, Ali, stay with me, so I don't get lonely Ali. You are never nice to me. Are you trying to make Michael suspicious?" I snapped."So it's a problem now if I'm nice? Jeez, Ali. You are the most difficult woman I've ever met. Maybe I'm just tired of us fighting. We've bickering ever since you started dating Michael." Nola
His Girlfriend's Brother 42. Get back in bed!
JACOBPart of me wanted to push him away. But the other part, the much stronger part wanted to wrap my arms tightly around him and---Well, let's just say the stronger part won because here I was, kissing Mike back like my life depended on it."Wa...wait, Michael...""Shut up!" Michael mumbled against my lips.Alright, Mikey, have it your way, I thought to myself and kept kissing him. I felt his hands roaming on my body, slipping under my shirt and I wondered why do I even bother trying to run away from him. It was hopeless."You asshole. I open my heart to you and you throw me away," he said after breaking the kiss. "And yet here you are," I smirked. There was no denying how adorable he is. "Did you miss the part where I said I love you?"I stopped breathing for a moment then I exhaled slowly. "I figured you got caught up in the moment and misplaced your emotions.""I think you misplaced your brain...idiot," Michael barked. I couldn't help but laugh out loud. I hadn't done that i
His Girlfriend's Brother 43. Trouble in paradise?
ALISON"What the fuck is Alison doing in your bed, Nolan?"I was fully awake after hearing Michael's voice.Oopsie.I could see how this would look to Michael--me, cuddled up under the blanket on Nolan's bed, wearing nothing but Nolan's T-shirt."This isn't what it looks like!" Nolan exclaimed.A classic line, totally believable.Michael looked more confused than mad. I didn't expect him to get too angry since he had been sneaking around with my brother. But I could tell he was wracking his brain trying to figure out what was going on between Nolan and me."What exactly is happening here?" Jacob asked and narrowed his eyes at Nolan."Nothing!" I jumped off the bed and chimed in. "Nothing is going on between Nolan and me. I slept over because Nolan couldn't give me a ride last night. And the guest room wasn't ready and...""Save it, Ali. There is no point in hiding this anymore. They caught us," Nolan declared.Huh?I strode toward them and then grabbed him by the shoulders. "Stop kidd
His Girlfriend's Brother 44. I am more than fine
MICHAELAlison gasped. I guess she wasn't ready for what I was about to say. I figured if I threw enough hints at her, she would anticipate this better. I even threw the cliché line, 'it's not you, it's me.'"You want to break up? Why...oh....why!!" Alison screeched. Other customers at the café looked at us curiously. Some had their cellphone out. Oh great, are we about to become a viral video on social media?"Calm down, Ali. People are watching us!" I said in a hushed tone."Let them watch. Let them all see how my boyfriend is breaking my heart in public, no less!" She made a sniffling sound. She held a napkin on her face and loudly snorted into it."Whoa, Ali. don't cry out here." I waved my hand desperately. I did not handle somebody crying in front of me, especially when I was the reason behind it. It made me uncomfortable, and I never knew what to do about it. "There's no reason to cry," I said and tried to touch her arm but she swatted my hand away."Why? Am I embarrassing you?
His Girlfriend's Brother 45. Goodbye, Jacob
ALISON "You freaking asshole. You lying, conniving piece of shit," I snapped at Michael. It felt good to finally let it all out. Just because I secretly accepted their relationship doesn't mean I wasn't angry. "I deserve it," he said, and I knew he wasn't going to deny it anymore. "How did you find out?" "I saw you two making out. Do you think I'm stupid? I knew something was up when you refused to have sex with me!" I cried. People at the café were still looking at us. I'm surprised they didn't try to kick us out for making all this noise. Maybe they were enjoying the soap opera unfolding before their eyes. "Ali...I am so sorry! This is all new to me. I had no idea I'd fall for your brother like this. At first, I thought I was only admiring him, but then I realized we had sexual chemistry. I couldn't help but be so attracted to him. And when we kissed...." I raised my hand so he'd stop rambling. "Spare me the details, alright? I don't care if you're gay. I'm just pissed that you
