(Hi there Breddtea here, I just want to say before you read this I'm currently rewriting this so I'd recommend you come back to this some other time! Of course, you can still read this but it might not be as good as it will be in the near future!) 


Brett and Eddy unofficially lived together, Eddy never asked him to move in but Brett seemingly lived there. Brett spent most of his time in Eddy's apartment only ever returning home to get more clothes or any other essentials he couldn't borrow from Eddy if he needed to.

Today was one of those days, Brett was in desperate need or more clothes, of course he didn't mind wearing Eddy's. Besides there's nothing wrong with wearing your best friend's clothes; it was normal to wear each other's clothes, right? Brett preferred to wear his own anyways and didn't really like the thought of sharing something like underwear... Brett put on the last of his clothes and began to walk out the door and shouted:

"Bye, I'll be back soon!"

Just as loudly Eddy replied, "Wait, have you not seen the weather outside?" from somewhere inside the apartment.

In all honesty Brett hadn't, he never really felt the need to look outside to check the weather. It was still fairly early in the morning and so he had yet to open the curtains, they both tried to wake up before 10 recently in an attempt to fix their sleep schedules. Brett walked over to the the windows and open the curtains revealing dark grey clouds and the heavy rain, thunder echoed in the distance as he looked out.

"Oh, shit...."

"Yeahhh, I don't even think an umbrella would help a lot in this scenario. You know, you don't need to go home I'm fine with you wearing my clothes bro, beside I don't think it'd be a good idea to go out in that," Eddy said as he walked over to Brett in the living room.

Brett blushed a bit at the thought of only wearing Eddy's clothes, if he did that the thought of Eddy's warmth would never leave him. But Eddy was just being a good friend and nothing else, right?

"No, no it's fine I'll just wait until the storm calms down.."

Eddy reassured him that he could if he wanted to and he could always just ask if he wanted to borrow something, Brett declined the other's offer. As it was clear that he couldn't go out he went back to the bedroom to put the clothes he was previously wearing on, preferring the more soft, comfy material and aesthetic they provided. Brett was unsure whether to call it Eddy's bedroom or their bedroom. Eddy had a spare room but they'd be sharing Eddy's bed recently, they weren't cuddling or anything though because they're just friends, right? Brett just didn't like the thought of sleeping alone nowadays and having Eddy there with him helped him sleep better.

Brett had nearly finished changing when the lights went out, he hadn't turned them off, he was pretty sure Eddy didn't turn them off, so he came out of the room to investigate what was happening. He entered the darkened living room with his jumper in hand to see Eddy sat on the sofa looking confused.

Eddy turned around to see Brett as they looked at one another they both said, "..power cut."

The lack of artificial light made it hard to see just about anything so Eddy opened the curtains and let the grey light from outside pour in. This was when they both became very aware that Brett didn't have a top on, now of course they had seen each other topless when they went to the beach. But this time was different it felt more intimate and close, it was just them and they weren't out anywhere. Eddy's face turned a slight shade of pink he looked away and said,

"You should probably put something on.."

"Huh, what? Oh yeah, might be a good idea. Don't want to get a cold." he laughed and the put jumper on to conceal his torso.
