A day in Elite's Mansion

BRAN

Something soft hit my head from the side and I turn to see Remi grinning at me. I notice two popcorns lying near my feet.  Idiot. Creigh smacks Remi at the back of his head.

"Spawn, Did you really hit me for him?" he points his finger at me offended.

"How dare you threw MY POPCORN away?"  I gasp at his reply, of course nothing is important for Creigh unless its Annika, sleep and food.

I threw the popcorn back at his forehead instead of Remi and he glares at me before going back to eating his fish and chips.

"You didn't answer me, Bran. Why would you say no to the trip?" Remi throws his own popcorn at me.

I sigh knowing he wouldn't leave me until I answer but I can't tell him the real reason.

"I told you I have an important project Remi" I try to reason with him for the thousandth time. 

"The trip is only for a week, you can work on rest of the holidays" he whines back. 

"Yes cousin. Why are you breaking Remi's fragile heart?" Eli joins me on the couch picking up handful of my popcorn. 

"I'm not fragile you psycho" Remi says. He is mad at Eli from yesterday for taking away his jockers. Again. He suspects Eli because he shared Ava's pictures of dancing with some boys when they went clubbing together the other day.

He didn't know it was Lan who took his joggers as payback for spending the afternoon with Mia in our game room. I don't think he is going to find his favorite joggers this time. Probably it is burnt somewhere as I sit here munching on popcorn. 

"Tell me Bran, why are you against the trip? It will  be a fun boys trip. Come on" I turn my gaze to meet his grey eyes.  I look at Eli's face and find nothing but genuine interest. I know I shouldn't take anything from Eli for granted.

They think I am not interested in the trip. On the contrary I do want to go for the trip.  The problem is the tattooed mafia prince who throws a fit if we don't see each other for more than 24hours. He might catch the next flight and try to join us in our vacation. 

Truth is more than him, I feel so agitated whenever he is not around. We spend every evening at his penthouse. Sometimes I even stay the night wrapped around his arms all night. He visited the fight club two days back and came back with lot of bruises. He won the fight but had to suffer quite a lot of injuries himself. 

Niko still goes for fighting ring because he needs to purge his energy somewhere. At this point the club seems to be the only safe place for that. He says fucking me through the night works wonders but I know how much the fighting helps him.

I took care of his wounds and came back to Elites mansion asking him to take rest. 
He has another fight scheduled for next week and I want to be with him for that. Remi has planned the trip for next week so I am stuck in a difficult situation. I grew up with these boys and there are lot of times we had talked about touring the world while growing up. So naturally I want to join the trip but I also don't want to leave Niko alone.

"I will think about it Eli" I say and Remi starts sharing the whole trip plan again.

"Hello brother" I turn to see the face that mirrors mine yet so different smiling at me.
