"Yesterday was fun, wasn't it?" Asher said as he entered the kitchen the next day, a wide grin on his face.

Probably had a real good time with Nora, Aiden thought to himself, as he sat at the island, letting out a long sigh.

While Asher was all wide awake and smiley, Aiden hadn't gotten a wink of sleep.

He was still reeling from what happened yesterday with Matias' and about how badly he wanted to...

He let out a groan, trying to get rid of his thoughts. Yet, no matter how much he tried, he couldn't stop thinking about it.

He couldn't stop thinking about those annoyingly blue eyes.

And those stupid plump lips.

And those stupid words he said that Aiden couldn't get out of his mind.

"Your eyes has little specks of brown in them, did you know that?"

"It's memorizing"

"Fucking hell" Aiden cursed out loud, shooting up straight and aggressively ruffling his hair "I must be going fucking insane"

"You might be right" Asher mused from somewhere beside him and the brunette jumped, having forgotten that he wasn't alone.

"What's bothering you?" Asher was suddenly next to him.

Aiden frowned, face serious "I might actually be going insane"

Asher tilted his head to the side, a slight smile on face.

"What happened?"

Aiden shook his head, facing the other way. He couldn't talk about it, afraid of what would happen if he said it out loud.

"Okay. Let me guess. It's about Matias, right?" 

Aiden pursed his lips, turning to narrow his eyes at his brother "how did you..?"

Shrugging, Asher let out a little laugh "a hunch" Leaning back into the side of the island, he scanned Aiden's face.

"Are you two...together? " He words were slow, almost careful as he watch Aiden's expression and if Aiden was drinking water, he would have no doubt spit it out.

"What? " he almost choked on his spit, cheeks warming up "No. Absolutely not"

Asher raised a brow at him, and Aiden silently cursed himself for losing composure

Aiden cleared his throat "I mean no. we're not dating" he replied stiffly.

" But you like him?" Ash pushed, his smirk only growing bigger.

"Ha!?" Aiden yelped, before quickly composing himself. "No. No i don't"he said quickly. Too quickly.

Asher let out a hum " you sure?"

"Yes. No" Aiden groaned, plopping his head in his hands "I don't know"

"Well shit" Asher let out another hum, almost as if in thought. "How does he make you feel?"

"How does he...make me feel?" Aiden repeated slowly, letting out a small laugh "shit I...well.. " Aiden wasn't sure if there was a simple way to explain how Matias made him feel. A few words weren't enough to describe the emtions he was currently feeling.

"He makes me feel..." Aiden's lips involuntarily curved up into a smile "alive" and it was like once he started, he couldn't stop "he's so annoying at times though, like I just want to choke the hell out of him. but he makes me laugh, with his stupid humour, and he's so sassy. Jesus, I thought I was sassy, but he out-sassifies me. Is that even a word? Whatever. It's like whenever I'm around him, I turn into this childish version of myself and I actually like it. I like how I'm not so uptight and moody around him"

Aiden let out a breathy chuckle as he stared at the island "he makes me...nervous too. he says these.. these things that makes my chest feel so fucking weird. And it's like I'm... captivated by everything he does and everything that makes him, him. Like his annoyingly blue eyes and his stupid smile and annoying laugh and tonight..." the brunette paused, eyes widening as he turned to Asher, who stared at him with a look in his eyes that Aiden was too busy to notice "last night I wanted to kiss him so fucking bad, Asher" realization finally sunk in and Aiden let out a loud curse, "oh my fucking word, I have feelings for Matias. I fucking like a guy"

Asher hummed, crossing his arms over his chest "and how does that make you feel?"

Aiden ignored him, laughing at his own stupidity. How hadn't he realized sooner?

Friends?

Yeah right.

Whatever Aiden felt for Matias was by far the un-friendliest feelings known to man.

But now that he's realized how he's felt, what was he supposed to do moving forward?

"Look" Asher's voice broke through his thoughts. Aiden turned to him, a slight frown on his lips "you don't have to rush anything. You've just realized how you felt. Take things slow"

"Yeah" Aiden breathed out "you're right...but then.. what does this make me?"

Asher's brows furrowed "Hmm?"

"Like...like sexuality wise. What does that make me?"

Asher shrugged "you could be bisexual or pansexual or just gay. Whatever your sexuality is, it's still you. Besides, you don't have to put a label on yourself Aiden; you like who you like and that's it."

Aiden nodded slowly, a weight lifted from his chest. A grateful smile rigged at his lips "thanks Asher"

"Anytime Aiden. Besides" Asher smirked, a glint in his green eyes "always knew u were at least a little zesty"

Aiden snorted, flipping his idiotic brother off "oh fuck you, you asshole" and there the heartfelt moment was over.

The brunette left the kitchen and plopped onto the large L-shaped couch, eyes fluttering shut and a tired yet happy sigh leaving his lips, as Asher disappeared of to somewhere in the house.

It was quiet for a few seconds, before Asher popped his head out from behind the wall.

"Oh and Aiden?"

Aiden popped an eye open "what?"

Asher grinned "I'm in love with Nora" and then the male was gone.

Aiden choked on his spit and shot up from the couch "come again?!"
