Brother or Boyfriend?

Chapter 4: Breakfast Ordeal

The next day

Tommy's POV

I groaned and my eyes slowly flickered open. I slowly looked around and realised that I was in Adam's room again, in his bed. WAIT...IN HIS BED?! I sat up straight away and looked beside me. Phew, no one there. I groaned again and grasped my head, instantly regretting sitting up fast. Everything that happened last night came flooding through my head. How dare Sauli do that do Adam! I slowly got out of bed and went into the bathroom. I looked a mess! I had a black eye, cuts all over my face and huge bruises all over my body. I needed a nice hot shower to soothe the pain. I turned on the shower and climbed in, letting my body go weak as the hot water hit me.

Adam's POV

I opened the fridge and took out everything I needed to make pancakes. Tommy deserved a treat after what he did last night. If it weren't for him, Sauli would've gotten his way and I would be extremely sore this morning. I thought about last night whilst pouring the mixture into the pan...

Last night at the club

"Wooooo! Adam wanna get another shot?" I laughed and as Sauli pulled me to the bar. I gulped down my shot then looked back at Sauli, he'd already finished his. I was very drunk. "Lets go party again!" As we got up, I bent down to smell the plant that was behind Sauli. "What a pretty plant!" It stunk of alcohol and I realised that Sauli probably poured his shot into there. "Adam follow me, cmon lets go!" Sauli dragged me outside into the alleyway beside the club, giggling. He pushed my up against the wall and started roughly kissing me. As first I kissed back, but then he started to go a bit far. I gulped as the effect from the alcohol disappeared. I lightly pushed him off of me and said, "Sauli please stop I don't wanna do this." He paid no attention and continued. "No Sauli get off of me! I don't want to!" He smirked and started kissing my neck whilst saying, "aw cmon Addy your no fun!" I could tell that he wasn't drunk, he was doing this by his own accord. "Sauli I'm serious stop!" I forcefully pushed him backward, making him knock over a bin in the process. After a few seconds he pounced back onto me and smirked, "hold still Adam!" He started to punch, slap and kick me. I groaned and sank against the wwall, weak. "Sauli get the fuck off of me! Stop!" I started crying, I was defenceless. This isn't how I wanted to do it. "Not until I get what I want!" He was suddenly interrupted by someone pouncing on him, it was so dark that we couldn't see who is was. He screamed as the figure poured boiling hot coffee all over him. I slowly managed to stand back up as Sauli threw the person off and started beating them up. I did the first thing that I thought of, grabbed a bin lid and whacked him across the head with it. Sauli fell onto the floor unconscious and I ran over to the person who had saved me, now also unconscious from hitting the wall. OH...MY...GOD... IT WAS TOMMY?! I felt a pang of guilt looking at him right now. He did this...for me? But why? I quickly wiped my eyes and carefully picked him up, then I made my way to the car and started to drive home.

Present day

I looked down at the pancake that I was cooking. "Shit!" I yelled as I noticed that it was on fire. Let me tell you one thing ok, I am a crap chef. I can't even boil pasta without it catching fire! I quickly dunked the pancake under the tap, then scraped it into the bin. I sighed and poured more pancake mixture into the pan again. Take 2, hopefully it will be finished before Tommy comes downstairs.

Tommy's POV

I got out of the shower and wrapped a soft white towel around my waist. I walked over to the sink and picked up my blade. I fiddled with it in my fingers and wondered, should I cut myself today? After a few minutes I sighed and put it back down. Maybe later...

After I got dressed, brushed my hair and applied some eyeshadow and eyeliner, I wandered downstairs only to find Adam attempting to cook in the kitchen. "Morning" he smiled at me. I returned the smile but still didn't say anything. I wonder how he reacted after last night? He sighed and put the spatula that he was using down. "Listen, I know I've been really rude to you lately but..." He sighed again and looked me in the eyes. "Thank you for last night, I don't know what I would do if you hadn't helped. By the way, how are your bruises and stuff?" He nervously looked at my black eye. I shrugged. "Fine I guess... um Adam?"
"Yeah?"
"Your apron is on fire". His eyes went wide and he looked down at his apron that had grey smoke surrounding it. "AHHHHH!" He screamed and stared running around the kitchen with a burning 'kiss the cook' apron on and flailing his arm around. "CALL 911, THE FIRE BRIGADE AND AN AMBULANCE! IM GONNA DIE!" I couldn't help but giggle as I grabbed a bucket and filled it with water. I ran in front of Adam and threw it over his front. He finally stood still and slowly wiped the water off of his face like a diva. He gave me a sarcastic look as I struggled to hold a laugh in. "Oh you're getting it now Pretty Kitty! Come here!" I shrieked and ran into the living room as he started chasing me. Unfortunately, I got cornered and he lifted me up over his shoulder. "Put me down!" I chuckled as he walked over to the couch and threw me down on it. "Thank you". I tried to get up but he pushed me down again. "Oh I'm not done quite yet..." he smirked as he started tickling my sides. I squealed and started arching my back and wriggling. "Adam...please...stop!" I choked out in between my laughter.

I eventually fell on the floor and Adam stopped tickling me. I knocked into his legs when I fell, making him fall on top of me. We stopped laughing and stared into each other's eyes. His gorgeous blue orbs made me feel safe, happy. He slowly leaned in until our lips were only an inch apart. Suddenly, we heard footsteps coming from the stairs. Adam quickly got off of me and sat on the couch, me copying him.

Adam's POV

"Good morning boys!" My mom smiled at us. "Morning" me and Tommy replied. I took a deep breath and smiled at Tommy as she walked into the kitchen. My smile soon faded as I heard her yelling, "ADAM MITCHEL LAMBERT WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU DONE TO MY KITCHEN?!" Tommy stifled a laugh as I pulled a face. "I tried to cook pancakes for me and Tommy!"
"WELL YOU DIDN'T DO A VERY GOOD JOB AT IT!" I rolled my eyes and started chatting to Tommy as my mom started making pancakes, replacing my totally shit ones.

A short while later, she called us to the kitchen and handed us plates of eggs, bacon and pancakes with golden syrup and butter piled on top. I started devouring mine and surprisingly, Tommy managed to eat all of his pancakes and a few bites of his eggs and bacon. After we had finished I stood and and stretched, content. "Lets go upstairs" I grinned at Tommy. He blushed. "Maybe we can catch up on the time we missed at first". We grinned at each other and went upstairs, and that's when it happened...
