The Stepbrothers

Morning after

   I woke up in a bed that wasn't mine. I couldn't remember what I did yesterday, it was such a surreal blurr. All I knew is that I was with Colin hanging out and that was the only thing I could remember.

  I was quite warm. I tried to get up but could not do so. I rolled over and Saw a half naked Colin in the very bed I inhabited. His arm over me quite tightly. I managed to free my hands and pick his arm up ever so slightly. I was about half way off the bed when two arms grasped my waist and pulled me back down. I couldn't help but to laugh.

" And where do you think you're going? Sneaking away? " His raspy morning voice hitting my ears.
 
      I didn't know what to say. I have no recollection of the night before. I rolled over to face him. I smiled thinking about how all the hell I went through doesn't matter as long as there are people like him.

  " How does one go to bed looking so perfect and then wake up perfect as you do? " I asked.  He chuckled, his voice still raspy.

  " How does the Earth turn? " He replied jokingly. He pushed away the covers and got up in only his shorts and socks. I gave him a smirk.

  " Ew, who wears socks to bed? " I laughed covering my head up with the covers. " Gross, it smells like boy under here!"
     "Well, that's good, because this is a boy's room," he joked. Colin opened his dresser to pick out a shirt; he chose the light blue v-neck the made his eyes sparkle more than they already had. After watching hin pick out his own clothes, I began to wonder who's clothes I had on.
   He picked up my clothes off the floor and told me where the bathroom was so I may change. I nodded and followed his directions. As I was walking down the hall, I noticed a similar picture. It was one I had seen before, but I couldn't quite remember where from. I wondered but knew it would come back to me later and so I moved on. I reached the bathroom, it was quite tidy. Everything was clean and sparkly, unlike the house I live in.
    Once I finished changing I look myself over in the mirror one last time and I was about to head out, when suddenly the door opens and I am face to face with a man who was not Colin.
  "Oh, I um, sorry. I was just leaving.."
The man, who I assumed was Colin's father, looked astonished. I quickly hurried back to Colin's room.
  "So, I met your dad..." I cowered sheepishly. He looked toward me and chuckled. "...What? What are you laughing about? " I asked.
   He shook his head and grabbed my hand, "Let's go."
