My Sister's Boyfriend's Brother {bxb}

26

Once we pulled away I felt every feeling inside my body come back to reality. Did I just- Yes. I really did just kiss Preston. At school. In the parking lot. In front of everyone. In front of Jasper. And I didn't regret it. I grinned shyly while his eyes stared into me, causing me to break eye contact. His finger slid underneath my chin, causing me to lift my head up and our eyes locked again.

"What was that for?" Preston asked, furrowing his eyebrows.

I shrugged my shoulders like I didn't know why I kissed him but I did know. "I'm tired of hiding and pretending to be someone that I'm not."

He smirked but it slowly faded away when I noticed him looking over my shoulder most likely at Jasper. I turned around thinking that I was going to Jasper looking at us but he was already sliding into the backseat of Evan's car. Evan and Natalie weren't looking at me while they got into the car right after. I didn't know how to feel about whatever they were thinking but I didn't want to think about that right now. I turned back to Preston asking him, "are you ready to go?" and he nodded his head.

I took a step back, creating some distance between us as I made my way to the passenger side and Preston made his way to the driver's side. We both got in his car and while I put on my seatbelt my eyes were still focused on Evan's car. They were still sitting in the same parking spot but it was long before he drove off, leaving the school parking lot. I felt Preston place his hand on my thigh which caused me to look at him, making eye contact.

"Are you okay?" he asked and I nodded my head.

"I'm fine," was my response but that wasn't the truth.

Inside I was freaking out, spiraling, and shaking. I didn't know how Jasper was going to react, I didn't know how Evan was going to react, and I didn't know Natalie was going to react. Was she going to tell our parents? But if she was, how were they going to react? Would they be accepting? Would they look at me differently? I didn't know how to answer any of those questions but one thing I knew: I kissed Preston out of anger. 

All the anger that was building up inside of me because of Jasper not being able to make up his fucking mind. To hear that his friends thought he would fall for me was something that made my blood boil. All this time, my undying crush on my sister's boyfriend's brother was reciprocated in private and I didn't know. Finding out about that was something that I tried to silence but could it be true? Has Jasper felt the way about me? I felt the car come to a sudden stop and I looked around noticing that Preston parked in front of his house. 

No, weren't at Preston's house.

We were at Jasper's house.

"What-"

I was cut off when Preston gently placed his hand behind my head. "You should be here," Preston said in a soft tone that was still loud enough for me to hear.

I shook my head quickly because this is the last place that I wanted to be. "I can't."

"You need to tell him," Preston said, trying to convince me to go inside.

"Can't we just go to your house?" I asked as an attempt to change his mind.

"Ashton-"

"I'll talk to him at school tomorrow," I added.

"Ashton, listen to me." His hands linked with mine and slowly I could feel my heart coming to a steady pace. "I didn't mind our relationship being private but I don't want to be a secret."

I looked at the front of the house, noticing Evans' car was pulled into the driveway so I knew they were home. But their parents weren't so Evan was going to have to move his car eventually.
