Stepbrother

Chapter 25

"Hell no! He won't stop whimpering and shaking," Neil said. "Why the f- ya know, never mind."

"Wake him up," I said.

"I tried!" Neil sighed. "Jeremy!" he sang out. Jeremy snorted and let out a grunt. "He's still sleeping." Neil groaned. "The bed is soaking wet!" He flipped the lamp on and slid out of the bed.

Neil had changed and gotten in bed before me, so I wasn't expecting to see him in just his briefs..

I blinked and looked from Neil to the bed. The place where Neil had folded the blankets back to get out of the bed revealed soaked sheets.

"Did he piss himself?" I asked, sitting up. Neil dragged his finger across the sheets, then smelled it.

"It doesn't smell like pee.." Neil said. "Come on Jer, wake up," he said, shaking Jeremy's shoulder. Jeremy jumped awake.

"Stop!" Jeremy yelled. Neil's eyes widened and he pulled his arm away. Jeremy sat up, sweat running off of his head like a river. Jeremy looked around and let out a sigh of relief. He crawled on the bed over to Neil and grabbed Neil's shoulders. Jeremy pulled himself into Neil's chest, Neil grunted and held him in his arms.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" Neil asked, setting Jeremy down on the bed. Jeremy whimpered, standing up immediately and wrapping himself around Neil. Neil sighed in disgust. "You're all sweaty," he said, attempting to pry Jeremy's arms off of him.

"I almost drowned!" Jeremy panted.

"No, you didn't. You were in a bed," Neil said.

"In my dream," Jeremy yelled, slapping Neil in the back of the head.

"You peed the fuckin bed!" Neil said. Jeremy looked over and let go of Neil.

"No, I didn't.." Jeremy said, looking down. His underwear were soaked. "It must be sweat."

"We need to change the sheets. Do you guys have any extras?"

"I don't think we do, but I'll go look," I said, sliding out of my bed. The hardwood floor was cold beneath my toes.

I looked in the closet in the hallway that was right across from my moms room. I heard someone walk up behind me. "Jeremy, do you see a light switch over there?" I whispered, pushing him toward a nearby wall. The lights flicked on and I searched through the closet.

I felt him press up against my shoulder. Did he start working out or something? I looked behind me to see Neil standing there looking over my shoulder into the closet. I jumped a little.

"You could've at least put some pants on," I whispered, backing away from him. He looked down and scratched the back of his head.

"Sorry.." he whispered. "Did you find any?"

"No, I don't think we have any," I said, scanning the shelves again. He sighed and nodded.

We walked back to the bedroom. I looked in the bathroom to see Jeremy leaned over the counter with water dripping off of his face.

"Do you have a big blanket and some other extra blankets?" Neil asked.

"I might have some extra ones, the biggest blanket we have is the comforter on my bed," I said. Neil stood there and looked at me before stripping the blankets off of Jeremy's bed.

"I don't wanna sleep with Jer," Neil laughed, scrunching his nose up as Jeremy walked back in the room. "He pees himself."

"I didn't pee myself," Jeremy said, blushing.
