Les twins (The reason we fight)

Radio

Larry walked upstairs to his bedroom leaving Laurent to do the same and after opening the door he looked at his dresser and removed all of his jewelry, placing them beside the picture of him and Laurent displayed there.
He then stripped off his clothes leaving his boxer shorts and ran a tired hand through his twists, sighing to himself.

As Larry stood in the quiet room he felt eerily alone even though his twin was no more than a few feet away and decided to play some music, so he reached for his phone then connected it to the Smart home function that travelled through the whole apartment.

Larry: "Siri, joue DJ Khalid" Siri play DJ Khalid

Larry wanted something upbeat to take his mind off the emotions swirling through his mind. He thought about what his brother was going through and about the evening ahead. Although he tried to show a positive side of himself to Laurent, there was always something he kept to himself when he was alone.

Larry knew that the problem he was dealing with needed to be addressed and he also knew that once he did, it could possibly change how his brother saw him, but he'd been avoiding telling Laurent for so long that he was starting to forget how to act like himself.

Larry trusted and cared for Laurent more than anyone ever would, but the truth was that his feelings for his brother were not normal. He would catch himself stealing glances at his twin in the morning or even getting flustered at the site of him naked, which has never happened before now. If he ever told his twin what he really thought of him, Larry feared that his world might shatter. Just the idea of being rejected by the one man he couldn't live without sent a shiver down his spine and a sickening feeling over came him.

Larry was startled out of his thoughts when the french version of his OS replied: "Jouer DJ Khalid..." playing DJ Khalid...

Immediately Larry's surroundings filled with music, blasting through the built in speaker system in his room. He dropped his underwear to the floor and walked inside his spacious modern bathroom. Once inside, Larry turned on the shower and allowed the hot water to wash over his face and tattooed arms as well as his back, neck and hair. He stood inside the large marble and glass box for a while without moving, simply thinking about Laurent and how long he could keep this secret.

Larry thought about the vacation they had in the Bahamas and how he thought his brothers ex suspected something. Larry remembered how she caught him jerking off in the shower and how he'd moaned Laurent's name over any other right before he came.

Jessica played it off like she didn't see or hear anything but deep down, Larry always wanted to confront her. He wished he could care about her the same way Laurent was trying to do, but the truth was, that he despised her for taking Laurent from him for all those years... He hated how weak she made him, and for breaking his heart, but somewhere inside he also envied her... for being the one who made Laurent so happy, when he knew he never could... At least not in the way he wanted to.

Laurent was always the kind and nurturing type, where Larry... his mirror, was protective and cautious. They were like yin and Yang, two sides of the same coin, but with Larry struggling to contain himself these days and with Laurent feeling like he'll never love again, Larry was beginning to fear how this would effect their connection tonight at the club. If their minds were not in sync, their bodies wouldn't be either and diesel was a huge contract so they couldn't afford to fuck it up. Larry knew that Laurent was going to speak to him tonight, not with words, but with his body and Larry would reply, a conversation held in the form of art that everyone enjoyed but only they understood. But this time, Larry wasn't sure if his twin would like what he had to say.

Larry stepped out of the shower after thoroughly cleaning himself off and got dressed, then he put on some deodorant, a pair of signature Jordan's and headed downstairs where his brother was happily waiting for him.

Lau: " Hey! You on time for once...You ready to go?

Larry: "What? How... you have more clothes now?!"

Larry said, noticing the brand new black jacket, shirt and jeans Laurent was wearing.

Lau: "I was out shopping with Mal and we got carried away... I'll put some of my older stuff in a box for charity or something, don't worry"

Laurent stated cheerfully.

Larry: "Your OLD stuff is like from a month ago... Why you buy so much clothes?"

Laurent: "I like clothes Larry, don't judge me"

Laurent stated matter of factly.

Larry: "Listen, and why you go out with Mal? I'm here too... You don't care that I'm here no more?"

Laurent: "Oh my god Larry stop being so dramatic... I buy you stuff all the time.. why you get so mad if I go somewhere without chu??

Larry: "You dont have to buy me stuff Laurent, I can buy my own stuff... I just don't get why you never call me anymore... And go put on another shirt!"

Larry said, practically pushing Laurent through the door way of his room.

Lau: "Hey! Don't push me... What's wrong with this shirt?"

Larry: "I can see your titties, now move!"

Laurent just sighed and rolled his eyes, but he did as his twin commanded and came out wearing a white t-shirt instead, but this time he exchanged his shoes for the limited edition Jordan's that cost more than... Well, more than common sense.

And with that Laurent walks out of the room leaving Larry to stare at the door with a look of disbelief on his face... He looks down and shakes his head not wanting to argue anymore and follows his brother to the front door.
.....................

Larry lagged slightly behind his twin simply talking to himself not wanting his brother anywhere near his thoughts.

Larry: "Fuck Larry... You can't keep this up"

Larry briefly thought about how good his brother looked in his new clothes and for a moment he couldn't help but resent their telepathic connection.

Larry: "I'm straight. So what am I doing right now?..."

Lau: "Huh? You say something?"

Laurent asked after hearing his brother mumble behind him.

Larry: "Huh? No... Nothing, I'm protecting you from slutty girls.. yeah that's it.."

Larry said in an attempt to convince himself rather than his twin, then marches past him and gets into the car. Laurent just looks at him with confusion not knowing what his twin was on about. Then with a hint of sarcasm he looks at Larry.

Lau: "... Larry, if you ever do drugs I'll kick your ass"

Larry just rolles his eyes and starts the ignition of the sports car and carefully backs out of the driveway.

Larry: "Whatever, let's just go"

Laurent obviously noticed that Larry was in a mood, but he didn't want to start an argument so he just let it go... Assuming it had something to do with him wearing that revealing shirt, Laurent was always under the impression that Larry preferred him to dress appropriately since his fashion sense was always out there..but as long as his twin was happy, Laurent didn't mind it at all.

Laurent then blissfully turns on the radio and stares out the window, not knowing about the internal struggle his brother was currently dealing with.
