Chubby Cheeks 7

Today, as I got up from my bed, my pillow didn't reek of tears, it was dry. I was confused and then it hit me, Alex... I cried to him and I was being stupid, I have never told anyone else about my feelings and yesterday I poured out to him and he stood silent, hugging me, and devouring each and every word like he understood. 

I felt bad and good.

I felt good today and my chest was not heavy, it felt nice. My thoughts were surprisingly mingled with a slow whistle and ruffle downstairs and suddenly I was scared, who could that be. And it hit me, I was not alone. 'God, why am I so slow today?' I dressed for the jog and went downstairs to see a beautiful man preparing coffee. His toned muscles and abs screamed for attention and he was gorgeous.

"Angel, I am your brother, stop staring."

"But... Fabian, I am so stunned to see you, you are gorgeous and if you were not my brother I would have pounced on you with my feline paws and you wouldn't have escaped my claws."

"Gees, you and your dirty mind; I am ashamed to address you as my sister."

It was nice to go out with a guy as handsome as this man. Every other jogger stopped a bit when they found that they were staring and was about to hit something. Fabian was engrossed in talking to me that I never listened but watched the stunned expression of these people. It was really fun. I mentally planned to take him with me to the gym and he agreed.

"Angel, you are a mighty runner, I was scared you might back off, but, I see that you are good. Hmm, so behind all that fat, you are fit." He said that with a smile and I slowed down when I got in front of the gym.

"Well, I started about 1 month ago and I am not seeing any results, thus, I started doing it for fun."

"Gee, Angel, you will not see the result within a week."

"Fab, I was talking about a month and that's four weeks in total."

"So, this is the gym. Cool, let's go see Jack." 

"Yeah"

"Angel... I see you have brought... Fabian..." Jack trailed off from a bored expression to a one that screamed excitement.

"Jackie..." 'Did my brother just drool over there?'

"Oh my god, my brother..." they engulfed in a bear hug. 'Wait, what? Brother?'

"Wait, you guys know each other?"

"Angel... knows each other? He was my best friend..." Fabian was twinkling with delight as he found his long lost friend. "I lost connection when I moved here and there and I never had any idea that this was the person you were talking about all this time."

"Can't wait to tell Jasmine..." he texted her and there she was sweaty yet looking beautiful like a diva. As soon as she got in, my brother acted strangely and got tensed, like he just froze. He was not smiling like he did when he saw Jack, instead staring at Jasmine and she was staring back not in a very friendly or first-time-seeing-you-way. Noting the pressure between them, Jack and I were dumbfounded.

"Jasmine...huh, we meet again." Fabian's voice was dripping with hatred, managed to break the silence and this was what he said, trying so hard not to stammer.

"Fabio... do you know Jasmine?"

"Ask her Angel."

"Jasmine what is going on?" jack now really sound pissed. I couldn't blame him. I was too stunned, staring at the drama.

"Jack... him...I..." Jasmine was stammering so badly that she never pulled her gaze from Fabian.

"Jack, remember the time when I told you about a girl when we were doing school together? A girl, who said she loved me back and after the last dance, walked out saying she was just trying to be close friends. Who walked out just like that? This is her... I never told you her name, but, now... this is her Jack. Her name was Janice Johns."
