My New Step-Brother (BoyxBoy)

Chapter 9

Devon's POV

I woke up feeling so much better, even though my back is a little sore from sleeping in Benji's car. I pull the lever on the side of the chair to pull it back into a sitting position. After I sat up I rubbed my eyes and looked out the window to take in my surroundings. The parking lot is busy with people now, a big difference from when I parked here last night; the lot was empty.

"Well this morning is glamorous compared to yesterday morning, isn't it?" I groaned, turning the key in the ignition and pulling out of the parking lot to drive home.

About 40 minutes later, I find myself pulling into the driveway of my new home. I'm not sure if I'll ever get used to calling this my new home. It's just such a big difference. I sit in the car for a minute, before deciding that I should just go inside and face punishment for leaving unannounced. I lock the car using the button on the keys as I walk inside. I'm just afraid on how I should act now.

What if Amy spent the night?

At the thought of that question, I felt something spark inside of me.

If Amy slept over, then that means that she slept in Benji's bed with him. There's that feeling again.... I clench my fists, trying to calm down. I toss the keys onto the counter and look at the time. 9:45. That means that Dad and Katie have left already. Good. I bend and take my shoes off to leave on the shoe rack that lies beside the door. Suddenly, I hear many thudding footsteps right before I am tackled in a hug.

"Oof!" I groaned from landing on my back with Benji on top of me.

"Don't you ever do that again! I was scared shitless thinking you were mugged or killed, or worse; my car got stolen!" Benji complained, his voice muffled from being pushed against my shoulder.

"Glad to know you care about my safety." I muttered, sitting up and pushing him off of me.

"You know I'm kidding. But really, how are you? I missed my brother!" He pouted, sticking his bottom lip out and crossing his arms for emphasis.

"I'm fine. Just needed to clear my head." I shrugged, and stood up. I hold my hand out for Benji, who takes it and allows me to pull him up.

"Babe?" Amy's voice called from the stairs. I resist the urge to roll my eyes.

"Living room!" Benji called back, taking my hand and dragging me into the living room to sit on the couch with him. Amy walks in a moment later, wearing only an oversized teeshirt. I clear my throat and divert my gaze away from her.

"Oh my gosh, sorry! I didn't know you were here. I'll- I'll go change." Amy stammered nervously, followed by her retreating footsteps. Unable to resist the urge to ask, I turned to Benji.

"Did you get laid?" I asked, trying to put it in a platonic way so he wouldn't get suspicious.

"God, no! She always dresses like that when she spends the night." Benji answered, turning on the sofa so that he is facing me as well.

"Oh. Okay." I said, feeling almost as if I betrayed him by sleeping with Isabella. That was our first time, yesterday.

"Yeah. I still hold onto my V-Card. What about you, have you lost yours?" Benji asked, winking suggestively.

"Actually, yeah. I lost mine." I answered. I debated on lying, and saying no but then I would be crushed if he found out that I lied. What the hell is going on through my mind? It's not like Benji and I are together. He's my new step-brother for gods sake!

"What!? Oh my god, to who?" His eyes widened, and he seemed almost as if he were proud.

"My girlfriend, Isabella." I confessed, looking away from him.
