Chapter Four ➳

Bill continued lying to Will, saying that he was fine and he was just sleep deprived. Will wasn't completely stupid, though, so the blonde was having difficulty fooling his brother.

"Hey, let's just go and get your cupcake," Bill insisted, a pounding headache developing in the back of his skull. His vision was swirling ever so slightly, but he played it off as nothing.

Will clasped his hands together thoughtfully. "Ar-are you sure you're ok?"

Bill bared his teeth. "Yes! Now leave me alone about that!"

Will was hesitant on meeting his twin's eyes before he reluctantly consented. "F-fine, then."

Bill didn't like be worried about or being cared for. He felt that he could carry himself and keep himself straight. He didn't need assistance from anybody. They made their way down the to the store, with only a couple accidents (Will tripping over thin air like an idiot).

"Ok, the cupcakes are over in this isle!" Bill exclaimed as light-hearted as he could muster.

Will perked up and followed his blonde twin.

"What flavor do you want?" Bill asked his brother as they stood in front of the cupcake section. "They have big, singular cupcakes."

Will examined the shelves like a five-year-old and pointed to the red velvet, singular cupcake on the highest shelf. "That one," he said, smiling.

Bill smiled at his twin when Will wasn't looking and stood on his tip-toes to reach the very top shelf and slide it off. "Perfect," Bill said triumphantly. He only had this act spread out, because he didn't want Will seeing how much pain he was actually in.

Will clapped his hands and grabbed the plastic container. "Yay!"

Bill smiled fondly at his childish sibling and sighed. He was always having to watch out for Will, but who would watch over Bill? The brothers walked up to the checkout isle and straight up to the cashier with their cupcake.

"Is this all?" The cashier lady asked kindly, scanning the box.

Bill nodded and pulled out his five dollar bill, holding it out for the lady to take. He got the 25¢ change and pocketed it, taking the cupcake off the counter and handed it to Will.

Will grinned brightly. "Th-thanks, Bill!"

Bill hid his smile, remembering to put on his tough act. "Whatever. You're welcome."

Will chuckled and opened up the container and admired the cupcake. He got one finger and dragged it accords the frosting and licked it off his finger. "Th-this is good!" he exclaimed cheerfully.

Bill nodded curtly. "Good, I payed five bucks for that."

Will rolled his eyes and proceeded to lick all of the frosting off his fingers and the cupcake carefully.

"Are you going to eat the cake part," Bill asked, slightly humored.

Will looked over at the blonde, frosting covering his lips and flushed cheeks. "Y-yes?"

Bill smiled lightly and glanced away.

"Want some?" Will held out the cupcake with half the frosting licked off.

Bill recoiled away. "Ew, no, what the heck? You just had your tongue all over that."

Will giggled and looked away. "B-but we're tw-twins! So what?"

Bill cringed. "That's even worse."

Will laughed, a genuine and real laugh that you didn't hear often. "We have the same saliva," Will chuckled and his brother made mocking gagging noises.
