My Step Brother's Obsession - Carly #2

We're Losing Her

Kyler

We watched as Carly invited Ethan into her office. We weren't even sure why he was here but we knew it could only be bad news.

Bad news for the both of us. We hadn't been paying her much attention recently and it was showing every time we were together, we loved her more than anything but there was this big gap between all of us threatening to tear us apart.

I had tired yet again to make amends for her feeling neglected but of course Jonathan had to shoot the fucking idea down yet again. All he fuckng cared about was fucking working and not Woking on our relationship with Carly. Or lack of. I had confronted him time and time again but he had brushed it under the fucking carpet as per.

I was getting sick of his oh if we don't have work bull shit. It's gone on long enough and quite frankly I wasn't the only one getting pissed off with the same damn excuse. I had put my neck on the line again to sort our relationship out and clearly he didn't give two shits about it or he would have agreed. I'm getting sick and tired of his excuses. It's time he took a good hard look at how this is affecting our relationship and how it's affecting Calry if we keep this us she's not just going to snap at us she's going to leave us which leaves her open for predictions like Ethan to snap her up and I won't let that happen I love Carly even if Jonathan doesn't.

His eyes are full of rage and his fists are clenched. Why the hell does he look so pissed? He's the one ruining this for us. He makes sure we work all hours, even if we don't have to. He wanted this relationship as much as I did now it just feels like he's trying everything to get out of it well if he doesn't want Carly I certainly do and I won't let her down any more and I'll tell him straight: he either books his ideas up or I'll have Carly for myself and he can't do Jackshit about it cause he's already proved he has no interest in continuing our throuple I love Jonathan but I love Carly too I need both of them but if he continues with this bullshit I'll choose her over him.

I want to see my Angel happy even if he doesn't.

We watch and wait in silence. He stands in silence not saying one single word. He's crushing this relationship into the ground if he wants out he should say.

The door of Carly's office opens and Ethan comes out; he walks past us grinning, looking like all his christmases have come at least once. Fuck this isn't good. She calls Catalina in for her session. I think the poor girl is a little shocked and has a little crush on Ethan. She steps in and Carly glares at us as she closes the door. We need to do something to save our relationship but Jonathan is being a prick as per. I glared at him before I walked away.

I catch up with Ethan before he gets in his jeep. "Ethan!"

He turns and smiles . "Kyler, what do I owe this pleasure? Shouldn't you be training or something?"

"Or something."

"So why are you out here?"

"Why did you go and see Carly?"

His smile widens and all I want to do is wipe it off his face. "Like I said at the wedding I had a proposition for her."

"What kind of proposition?"

"Ask Carly."

"I'm asking you?"

"I offered her a job on my new project."

I scoffed, almost laughing. "She has a job."

"Not for long." He says opening the door of his jeep.

"What the hell do you mean, not for long?"

"Once it's up and running I'll be back to get my answer. I'm sure she'll jump at the chance as it's more money than she earns here and better credentials. I'll see you soon Kyler." He said, getting into the car.

"She won't leave her or us."

"Well see." He said closing the door. His window came down. "Nice chatting to you Kyler." He said pulling away.

Fucking asshole there was no way in hell o would let that prick take Carly from us job ot no fucking job. I stormed back into the building in hope I would find Jonathan and knock some fucking sence into him.

Jonathan

We're losing her we're fucking losing her and it's all my fault.

Kyler had warned me several times that she would only take our shit for so long then she would snap and leave. Today was that day. I had never seen her so fuckign angry. I haven't been feeling it for a few months now. I still love her with all my heart but there's something missing. Something we have talked about several times but she's knocked it on the head saying she wasn't ready and she was scared how we would react if one of us got her pregnant and the other didn't. We had told her time and time again a DNA wasn't necessary. We'd love the child unconditionally no matter who the father was. We were both the child's father. But she still had trouble processing that.

When I first saw Ethan here I knew it was bad news but we all knew he'd be back someday to spew some bullshit to her about some bullshit proposition . We had seen it coming but we didn't expect it to be today, today of all days when we were arguing over the fact she wanted to spend quality time with us. Kyelr had suggested the cabin yet again and yet again I made an excuse. I don't know how I feel anymore. My mind is so jumbled and I know Carly and Kyler are getting pissed off with me dismissing the idea and I'm sure to lose both of them if I keep using work as an excuse. I've made Kyler stay back at work when it wasn't necessary just so they would've spent time alone and decided to go to the cabin without me. But seeing Ethan and that smug smile on his slimy face made me realise I wanted to make it work or at least try and make it work. I also wanted to punch that slimy smile off his fucking face.

After Kyler gave me the evils and stormed off to find Ethan I decided to go and see Star she would know what to do. I knocked on her door and she called me to go in. I did just that, closing the door. She looked up and smiled. "Jonathan, what a pleasant surprise. I take this isn't a social call?"

"I fucked up. We're going to lose whe and I don't know what to do."

"I take it you're talking about Carly?"

"I am."

"Tell me what happened and maybe I can help you get back on the right track."

I nodded.

"Take a seat Jonathan, you're making the place look untidy." She smiled.

I took a seat opposite her. "So tell me from the beginning what's going on and let me see if I can help you."

I sat and told Star everything that had been going on for the past few months about how I was still in love and felt like there was something missing and didn't know how to tell her or how to deal with what I felt. How I made excuses not to make time for her and used work as an excuse to stay away so I didn't have to see her. I told her that I had ropes Kyler into doing the same so she wouldn't spend more time with him than me or they didn't go to the cabin alone. I was so messed up I didn't know what to do.
