"What..?" I asked after a couple seconds.

"Did I stutter?" Jeremy smirked slightly. I shook my head.

I thought for a couple minutes. He's my brother.

But I love him.

"C-Can I think about it first?" I asked.

"Of course.." Jeremy nodded. I let out a sigh of relief. "I love you," he whispered, leaning his head on mine.

I woke up. The lamp was still on. I grabbed my phone and in the reflection of the screen I saw how cute Jeremy was. I smiled and took a picture.

I got a text from Neil.

Neil- What are you doing?

I sent him the picture.

Neil- Oh that's sweet.

Me- Yeah. He's cute when he's asleep.

Neil- Yeah. True. One question though, why are you two sleeping together..?

I scratched my head.

Me- He was having a bad dream.

Neil- Uhhhh huh.

Me- What? It's true.

Neil- UHHH HUHH.

Me- Neil, fuck the fuck off.

Neil- fine. It's not like this is any of my business anyway.

I went to put my phone down when it buzzed again.

Neil- Did you guys do it?

Me- What? Hell no what's wrong with you

Neil- well I mean..
You're in the same bed and he looks pretty shirtless to me.

Me- He slept shirtless with you
Did you guys do it?

Neil- Hah. No. Save the gay jokes for Josh and Kevin.

Me- Are they gay?

Neil- I don't know. I think they are but they're too afraid to admit it.

I switched over to Josh.

Me- Hey.

It took him a while to respond.

Josh- I'm kinda busy right now.

Me- oh are you fucking Kevin?

Josh- Huh?

Me- You're fucking Kevin.

Josh- No. I'm not gay. Stop making fun of me.

Me- I'm not making fun of you. I saw you and Kevin holding hands.

Josh- You did?

Me- Yeah Josh I was there. You saw me.

I waited for his reply. It took him a couple minutes.

Josh- It's complicated.

Jeremy moved his hand from my hip to my butt.

Me- What's complicated

Josh- Kevin and I

Me- What's so complicated about it?

Jeremy shifted behind me. I looked over my shoulder. He was still sleeping.

Josh- A lot of things.

Me- like what?

Josh- I can't really tell you.
