It's A Brother Thing

Chapter 13: "Them Love Bites"

A/n I can't write as much as I'd like, now that spring break is over. Back to being a social outcast out school. YEET. But hey, I graduate in May if I get my shit together. Love y'all!

Jakob's POV

I can't take my eyes off Simon as he sits on the bathroom counter, singing around his toothbrush, and swinging his legs.

Too fucking cute.

He's in a really good mood for having been up so late...I know if I were him, I'd definitely be sore and grumpy.

At least his eye isn't swollen at all anymore, but the bruising is just terrible. My sweet little baby. I hoped I'd be less angry when I woke up, but I'm still pissed at Mom and Dad.

I really want to know what went down, and maybe Simon will tell me today. If he's ready. Either way, we have to go home after school.

Before they report us as runaways.

I spit out my toothpaste and discard the toothbrush, both compliments of the hotel. 

Which is nice because I didn't pack anything.

Simon finishes up as well and frowns as he hops down. "I didn't bring my contacts, so I have to wear my glasses today." Has he been half blinded this whole time then? Damn.

When I register what he said, I smirk internally. He's sooo fucking cute in his glasses.

"Awe, that's too bad. Do you even have your glasses?"

"I think they're in your car."

"Okay." I cup the side of his neck and tenderly kiss his forehead. "Ready?"

He nods, and glances in the mirror, squinting a bit.

He's wearing a red, oversized hoodie we bought from the gift store and his converse. It only falls just past his ass, so I'm not a big fan. Well, in private I am.

I just threw my clothes into the hotel's washer because I didn't have enough to buy something for myself as well. Plus, I don't worry about my style too much.

Black ripped skinny jeans and a long grey T shirt works good enough.

We link hands.

"You look great," I whisper as he wearily glances in the mirror again.

"Wow! Simoooon!" None other than Kyle whistles as we walk through the school doors. Behind him is the rest of the squad plus Crystal.

Simon blushes and steps behind my back. I chuckle as the squad comes up and suffocates me in hugs and kisses. "Hi boys."

Toby peeks around me. "Hiya Simon. You know, we don't bite."

Jack sun peeks at him from my other side. "BUT SOMEONE DID! ARE THOSE HICKIES!"

"What! Where!" Kyle pushes me out of the way. I roll my eyes as my best friends inspect a bright red Simon, who looks like a deer caught in the headlights.

Kyle whips around, pointing at my baby brother. "Do you know about this Jakob! Someone's lips sucked on Simon's THIGHS!"

Yeah mine. I grit my teeth, trying not to smirk proudly at my work. Instead I shake my head. "I know. I was pissed." 

Toby sobs dramatically and yanks Simon against him, rubbing his hand down Simon's head. "There goes the last innocent person in school. Rest In Peace, baby Simon! Hello new, saucy Simon!"

"S-saucy?" He adjusts his glasses, laughing nervously as he looks to me for help. I just cover my smirk by coughing into my arm.

Crystal steps forwards and gently touches Simon's arm. "You seem like a sweet boy, Simon. Don't let your heart fall into the wrong hands."
