SINFUL ATTRACTION

CHAPTER 1

{ Liv }

.......

My brother can be quite something.

"Alex!"

I call out for the fourth time almost about to yell when I hear a knock at the door. Probably, might be his close friends but I thought we all agreed to meet at the Grill, since it's K night.

Normally on Tuesdays we always meet at the Grill, for fun, hangout, alcohol, dancing and bonding. We've been doing such for the past four months and by we I mean, myself, at times Jake and Alex my elder brothers, Jake's ex Alicia, Micaela my best friend, Alex's best friend, Tyler, Jake's best friend, Mikey and my boyfriend, Martin among other close friends.

Opening the door, a pretty female figure, probably my height, stands there and our eyes meet. Did Alex sort of found a girlfriend and forgot to tell me?

I don't think so. I poke an eyebrow, maintaining eye contact waiting for her to utter words of why she's standing right in front of me.

"Is Alex around?" She asks.

Is she one of Alex's...

May be. Might be. Shouldn't be. I know my brother very well.

"Alex!" I call out.

My eyes still fixated on her. Her curly black hair, natural lips, no make up. I'd say she chose the wrong dude, but anyway I'm not to judge whoever sleeps with my brother or vice versa.

Talk of the devil, he dares show up with his chest shirtless, and his visible tribal tattoos remind me of our late father. How angry he was when he learnt about Alex's deeds.

"For heaven's sake!" I facepalm myself almost walking out of him when the miss at the door breaks her silence for a second time.

"You're not Alex!" She says.

I turn and stare at her before turning my attention to Alex.

"Let me guess, you met this charming dude. Introduced himself as Alex. You two had a wild night wherever that was and he gave you this address as his address?" Alex inquires.

Where is he going with this story? I'm not following.

Oh wait...

"Sorry you were played!" Alex adds before slamming the door shut on her face.

Poor her.

"You didn't have to." I say out of pity.

"I'm not the go to guy for Jake's one night stands!"

My Fraternal brothers to be precise.

I cross my arms together and stare at him.

"You started all this remember?" I say. "Five months ago!"

He doesn't say a word because it was a big mess. He slept with Jake's girlfriend, Alicia, His first love to precise. It really messed Jake up, who took his anger out on him. Alex got hospitalized after the fight because he suffered a concussion and they've never been brother's ever since. Jake hates him really bad as he swore to make Alex's love life a living hell.

To be honest, that was a turning point for Jake. He has no friends, or may be he has because Mike knows never about his whereabouts. I have no idea why. He's very secretive to a point that I have been to his apartment once only for the second time to learn that he moved out. We rarely meet at school unless he really wants to see me, despite being in the same school.

He surprisingly shows up when I'm with my friends out, at restaurants, having lunch or having fun. Sometimes I think that he's always following me since he threatened my boyfriend, that if he ever sees or heard that he made me cry Martin wouldn't hear the end of it.
