My lover, my brother

I admit, I'm crazy in Love with my Math whiz Brother

Chapter 4 ------------------- I admit, I'm crazy in Love with my Math whiz Brother

As the weeks passed, James and I became so close. My feelings for him grew until it now looked like a huge air balloon. I would blush when he look at me admiringly. And he look away trying to hold a smile. There were also awkward moments between us. But we just ignored it. clearly we don't want to admit something that we have been hiding from each other. Every night, he would visit me in my room even though I don't have any homeworks in Math. We would joke about nonsense, pull pranks on Mom and Dad and Paige too. We knew each other more deeply because of our bonding. Sometimes, James would fall asleep on my bed and we would sleep together. When I woke up in the morning., strong arms were holding me, I felt secure and safe. My heart would then begin to leap like a crazy frog. And I would wish we would stay like this forever. I let him get up first before I open my eyes. Mom and Dad began to take notice of our closeness, but they just told us it was a good thing. But then, for me, it waas the best thing ever! I hope it's like that for James too.

" Hi Trina. Can I ask you something? " I spoked to Trina during recess. My face was so serious she began to start snickering. I had decided to ask this question I was itching to.

" What is it, Chris? " Trina said in between snickers.

" What does it mean when you're start feeling like your heart is going to leap out your mouth when you're around with uhh... your.. what I meant was, when your around a boy? And you think you're going to melt at his touch? " I stammered, looking down the floor.

Trina broke out in hysterics and I glared at her. I could feel my blood rushing to my face. Yeah I was blushing. Again. I've been blushing frequently when Trina and I would talk about my brother. i told her about our newly found friendship and closeness. I even treated James my best friend.

" It means you are IN LOOOOOVE with that person!" Trina yelled, causing our other classmates to look in our direction. " Ive been waitin for that question from you for ages! " she added.

She was right. I AM IN LOVE WITH JAMES, MY BROTHER. Now, that's clear.

" Whatever Trina. And you know, shut up! You're like a maniac laughing by yourself. I said while playfully smacking her arm.

" Yeah Chris!, Uhm.. Who's that boy anyway? " Trina mocked.

I'm never around with boys most of the time except when James and I were together. My only boy close friend was Louis, a childhood friend of mine. But Im on good terms with everyone else in class.

" Shut up. " I told her again.

I saw Trina got up from her desk and went to me, then she bent down and whipered in my ear.

" Are you in love with James, your brother? He's the only guy you've been hanging around lately. "

I turned pale, like a vampire had just drained my blood. I pretended to mask a disgusted expression and muttered Eew,but Trina did not bought it. she was still giggling and laughing like a RETARD!.

" That's sick. " I finally answered her.

When our English class began, Trina finally went silent. She was intent on getting high grades this semester. I smiled to myself. Finally, she's going to stop.

After class dismissed in the afternoon, I made beeline for the door. I was the first to get out. I wanted to avoid Trina's teasing at the mean time and have some alone time thinking whether I should tell James my true feelings for him.

When I was few yards away from school, I heard somebody ran behind me. I ignored it, thinking it was just some of my classmates who were playing.

" Hey." James panted. He was the boy who was running, running to catch up on  me.

" James! " I mouthed, I didnt know what to say to him. I was thinking about him then he just popped out behind me.

" Would you care for some burgers down the street? I'm hungry. " James uttered.

WHOA. James was offering me to go with him at a snack bar. It was like a date, I guess. I loved the idea dancing in my head. My heart began to leap lik a crazy frog again.

" Sure thing. " I answered, giggling.

" You're so red Chris. " James teased. OH my. I'm blushing. He had noticed it.

" Huh? Oh. Me? Well... It's nothing." I said.

" You seem happy these past few weeks, Chris. " James commented.

" Huh. Uh, yes. "

" What's the reason? " He asked curiosly.

" I'm happy of us being friends, or best friends even. I'm glad of us bonding everynight." I confessed., but I was smiling like a moron.

James just smiled wistfully at me and looked up the sky. He laid his arm around me and we walked towards the snack bar.
