Love, Love You.... (Short Story/One Shot Compilation)

My Sister's Boyfriend

This is the first time I felt the tingling sensation in my stomach. The kind that you feel when you fell in love. But, I'm not supposed to fall in love with this person. Because he's my sister's boyfriend. But I can't help it, I locked my eyes on him.

***

This is the thousand times I've met him. See him. Talk to him. And I thought when I'm used to see him, I'll forget about my stupid feeling. But unfortunately, its getting stronger. I know, I know, I'm fucked. Doomed. No way a man that date my sister will look my way. But he's just too charming.

At first I thought it's just admiration. I mean, he's a dude, like the dude. Tall, well build, nice, kind and super, super gentle. And because I never have a man figure as my father passed away long ago, I thought I just want an older man figure in my life. But I was wrong.

I always know that I don't like girl the way my friends did. I'm okay with them, I mean, girls are gorgeous. But I don't have feeling for them. But I never like a guy either. Just him. The one and only. Why the fuck he's to be my sister's boyfriend?!?!?

It's not that I want to snatch him or what. I know my sister love him so much and I can see he also care for her. His smile and stare give it away. But I can't help wanting that gentle eyes to stare at me.

He's nice to me. He treat me like a family. Like a brother. He even send and pick me when my car broke. And tell you what, it's an amazing experience. Sitting behind him on his motorcycle, holding his waist, tell you what, his abs, delicious even only with touch outside the shirt. It's firm. No wonder my sister okay being drench in rain or baked by sun. I would love to baked or drench if I can hold him again.

And as usual, he's here today. Having group project with my sister.

"Hey little dude. How's your car? Good?" I always love it when he calls me names. Sometimes it's funny one, like right now. Sometimes it's sweet one. He once called me baby or Bee. But mostly he called me kiddo.

"Car's good. Just take it this morning. You guys, why working even on weekends?" I sit myself across him, he sits side by side with my sister.

"Well, the deadline is close. That's why." my sister answer me while she type on his Mac.

"And you? Why are you home on weekend? Go out. Have a date. You're young." he says that while raised his eyebrows.

I smile at him. "I don't date. Or I don't have a date to be precise." Because I like you. But I can't say that out loud.

"Why? You're handsome. Young. You're smart. You're friendly too. They should line up to date you Kiddo." I feel baked with his praise.

"Beam don't like girl, Forth." my sister smacked his head.

"I know. That's why I thought dudes will line up to get him. He's a catch. He's lovely." WAIT!!! Did he just say he knows I'm gay??? Well I won't label myself as gay, as I only like one dude. I do like girls, just not as much I like him. Bi perhaps?? I need to explore my interest.

"How? Did Beam tell you??" my sister seems confused.

Forth just shrugged. "I have good gay-dar."

"Hmm... You don't mind me being gay?" I feel nervous. I really wanna know his opinion.

"Why would I? I swing both way, Kiddo. And I think you're too. You just don't realize it yet. It's okay. You still 16, much time to get there." He reach out and patted my head. See?? He's sweet.

"When you realize you swing both way?" I asked him in curiosity. I really wanna know, for myself too.

He tilted his head as if he try to remember. "I was 17 I think. I start to like a classmate, who is man. We dated for couple months."

"So you realize it 5 years ago? That's quiet new." My sister stare at him. Is she unhappy? Knowing his boyfriend dated a guy. I don't think she's like that.

"Why, Sis? Are you jealous?" Now I'm being nosy.

"What? Why would I?" Well of course she won't be jealous, it's in the past and she has him now. All for herself. Shit!!! It hurts. Still hurts.

"Of course Mai won't be jealous, Kiddo. She's not my girlfriend. Why would she be jealous. She even would tease me if I date." I stunned. Wait!? They're not dating?

"Wait? What? You're not together???" Now I'm confused.

My sister laugh. "Me? Dating Forth? No Beam. We're just friend. I like Forth as a friend. Nothing more noting less." Forth also laugh.

"But you said he's your soulmate." I'm totally in twilight zone now.

"As in super best friend. He gets me. Easily. So do I. We get along easily and quickly. I like him and that's great. But not as boyfriend material. He's someone I can rely on in everything. And I'm the only someone can stand his craziness." Her explanation really hit me hard.

So I got heart broken over nothing? You're stupid Beam. How could you not see it?? Forth being nice to her because they're friend. Not because they're in love. I'm too blind to see it because I'm jealous. Stupid Beam!!

"Why? Are you misinterpret my words and got your heart broken?" My sister grin mischievously.

"Wait, what? What are you talking about??" I steal a glance to Forth who smirk. His eyes has some sparkle I've never seen before.

"I know Beam. You like me since the day you saw me. I just take my time to get to know you better. And give you time to accept yourself. Your sister know, that's why she asked my help to give you ride when your car broke. That's the best day ever by the way." Now I feel shy. I pretty much just get my first confession from the first person I like more than I like others. I should just be brave and I won't get so miserable before.

"So? Would you date me? You said you don't have a date. So, would you like to date me? Get to know me more. I know I'm much older than you at least 6 years and I'm your sister best friend. But I promise I will do my best for us to work out, if you willing to walk this path with me."

That's..... That's a sweet confession. Wow!!! I just got the chance to be with someone I love. Wow!!! Just wow. Am I dreaming??

"Beam?"

"Yes. Of course. I will date you. Let's find out where we will go."

I smile.
