I looked at Lucas, anger rushing inside me for him not telling me about Riley and his brother. "Seriously, Lucas, my brother is heartbroken, he loved the girl and you're not gonna tell me that she has been fucking your brother five months?"

"It's not that easy, alright?" He said and Connor's nostrils flared. "You're gonna be dead soon." He said, his British accent popping out cause he was angry. "Why do you like this guy again?" Lucas asked me and I crossed my arms. "Because he tells me shit like that."

"Real mature." Lucas said. "So she's the immature one?" Connor asked. "You're the one going around and kissing other girls." He hissed and I grabbed Connor's hand. "Come on, we'll just get Chinese instead." I said and dragged him out of the store, hearing Lucas call after me. We got to Connor's car. Lucas grabbed my arm as I opened the door. "Let go of her." Connor said, his jaw clenching.

"Con, just wait a minute." I said, and Lucas and I walked away to a place more private. I looked at him, waiting for him to say something. "Sorry, it probably looks weird that Katie and I are here together, but I promise you nothing happened again." He said.

"It's not that, it's the Riley thing, why didn't you tell me?" I asked and he swallowed. "Because my brother was gonna kill me if I did, plus it's not my place to tell you this kinda stuff."

"It is, you knew she was dating my brother, that's not something you can choose to ignore." I said and he bit his lip. "I'm really sorry."

"Just, please, stop fighting with Connor all the time." I said after a few seconds of silence. "What? He starts all the time, he's been wanting to get in your pants since the day he met you." He hissed. "So what? He hasn't even tried to kiss me, you on the other hand." I mumbled the last part and he ran his hand trough his blonde hair. "I know, I know, I shouldn't have, but I was-"

"Drunk, right. Lucas, I'll see you later." I said and wanted to walk away. "Babe?" He asked, grabbing my hand. "Are we okay?"

"Yeah." I said, slowly nodding. He pulled me closer to his chest and kissed the top of my head. "I really am sorry." He whispered and I looked at him. "I know."

I softly kissed his lips and he let go off me. "I love you." He said and I licked my lips, before walking away, back to Hamilton's car.

"I don't get that you don't see that this is all a game he's playing." Connor muttered and I sighed. "He's not as bad as he you think he is."

Connor shook is head and we drove back to my house, wanting to eat Chinese at this point.

My brother was laying on the couch, he didn't eat anything, he had been quiet the whole time and he didn't wanna play video games.

His heart was really broken by Riley.

"Maybe we should leave him alone?" Connor asked and I shook my head. "No, we can't. I know him, he wants our company. I actually have an idea." I said and walked to the cupboard in the living room, opening it. "Ben, wanna watch The fox and the hound?" I asked and he slowly sat up, a small smile forming on his face. "No, but thank you lil' one." He said and got up. "I'm gonna head to bed."

He walked up to me and gave me a hug, kissing my forehead. I looked at him as he walked out of the living room. I put the DVD back and sighed. "Do you wanna watch the movie?" Connor asked and I slowly shook my head. "No, I actually don't."

He chuckled and walked up to me, putting his arms around me. "He'll be fine, see him walk around happy next week." He said and I put my head on his chest. "I hope so." I whispered, we stayed there like that for a moment until the doorbell rang. He let go of me and I walked up to the door, wiping away the tears that had escaped my eyes with the sleeve of Con's sweater.

I opened the door, revealing Dustin. I frowned. "Uhm, sorry to bother you-"

"Fuck you." I said and tried to close the door, but he put his foot against it so that I couldn't. "I wanted to know if your brother is okay." He said.

"How dare you even ask? Of course he's not okay, his girlfriend cheated on him with my boyfriends brother, does that sound okay to you?" I hissed and Connor walked up next to me. "Dustin, what the fuck are you doing here?"

"I wanted to ap-"

Connor threw a punch straight to the jaw of Dustin. "What the fuck." Dustin said, is hand grabbing his jaw. "Well, I deserved it, but the what the fuck."

"Now leave and tell that brother of yours to cut the deal." Connor said and closed the door, leaving Dustin confused. "Deal?"

He wanted to walk off and I grabbed his arm. "What deal?" I asked and he shook his head. "Ask Lucas, I'm sure he'll tell you."

I sighed and let go of his arm. He walked upstairs, but I decided to stay down for a while. I plopped down on the couch and turned on the TV. I zapped trough the channels until I was satisfied. I watched some stupid cartoon, I didn't get what it was about, but I enjoyed it.

When it was two, I decided to go to bed considering it was school tomorrow. I quietly walked up the stairs and opened my door. I saw Connor laying in my bed, the blanket only covering his legs. His chest was softly raising and falling, telling me he was sleeping. I went to my bathroom and brushed my teeth. I decided not to turn on the light, not wanting to wake him up.

He did and he scared the crap outta me.

I yelped really loud and a low chuckle left his mouth as he leaned against the side of the doorway, turning on the lights. "Sorry." He said in a deep voice from just waking up. I looked at him trough the mirror, scanning his bare chest. "Enjoying the view?" He asked and I spit out the toothpaste, shrugging when I got back up. "Not really."

He gave me a grin and looked down. "I am."

I turned around, realising he meant my ass. "Perv." I muttered.

I cleansed my mouth and put my toothbrush into my glass. "Why are you still up?" He asked and I walked past him. "Just didn't feel like sleeping." I said and he plopped down on my bed. "You're fine with me sleeping here right?"

I cocked an eyebrow. "You seemed to already be doing that, so I kinda have to." I said and he smirked. "Oh, I know."

I shook my head, turning around to change into a shirt. I faced him again, seeing he had been looking at me the whole time.

He licked his lips, biting it in the progress. "Fuck." He muttered and threw is head back. "Sorry?"

"No- Nothing." He said, crawling under the sheets. I frowned and walked to the other side of the bed. "Are you okay?" I asked and he rolled onto his back. "Not really, but doesn't matter."

What's up with this guy?
