brother's best friend pt. 1

"y/n", said your brother, alejandro, "mattia's coming over and we're ordering pizza. you want anything?"
my heart skipped a beat and my face felt warm at hearing mattia's name. i've had a crush on him for a while now, and every time i'm around him, it's intensely awkward.
"uh no, i'm fine thanks", i made sure to not to let ale get a view of my bright-red face.
"alright then."
~time skip~
i was laying on the couch using my phone when the doorbell rang. alejandro arose from his spot and slowly trudged towards the door.
i tried to focus on my phone but my attention was taken by the sound of a familiar voice.
"hey."
instantly, i too got up from my seat, running upstairs while trying to not be seen.
"y/n, where are you going?", my brother asked.
"i'm going up stairs." the words roughly escaped my mouth in which i did not intend to. i knew for a fact ale would scold me about it later, but i didn't care.
time flew by and i realized it was 12am.
"oh shit."
footsteps were heard approaching my door and i adjusted myself so that i was sitting upwards.
soon after, alejandro's head could be seen peaking through , "what are you doing?"
my hands rubbed my eyes as i gave a stern reply, "nothing. no pizza?"
he chuckled, "no, no pizza. go to sleep."
i sighed and turned back around, my stomach on the bed whilst my head rested on my arms.
the door creaked open again.
"what do you want?", i asked them.
once again, a chuckle was heard, though this time it wasn't from alejandro.
my body flipped the other way faster than i could comprehend.
mattia was standing at my doorway. he wore a white, somewhat see-through shirt and gray sweats. not gonna lie, seeing him like that turned me on a bit.
"what are you doing", i watched him with wide eyes.
"chill, your brother went outside. his girlfriend stopped by."
girlfriend? my brother has a girlfriend?
"uh...what are you implying?", i asked, confused.
"oh, nothing. i just wanted to come say hi. and we both know your brother is..."
"over protective", we said together, laughing.
"yeah", i started, "he's always been like that."
without noticing it, mattia was already sat by me on my bed, watching my figure.
"so, how's 11th grade treating you?", he asked.
both him and alejandro were seniors, making me a year younger.
"it's...okay, i guess."
"ahh i see."
the atmosphere became silent, surprisingly not awkward.
i turned my head back to mattia and saw him already staring at me with, what it seemed, lust in his eyes.
his hand went up to caress my left cheek while his right was resting on my thigh. slowly but surely, the gap between us closed. the feeling of his plump lips on mine sent tingles throughout my whole body.
~the next day~
"HE KISSED YOU?", my best friend, vanessa, yelled out. her voice echoed through the empty hallway we were standing in the middle of causing me to become alarmed, making sure no one in the room beside us heard.
"shhhh, don't be so loud", i hushed her.
vanessa was one of my closest friends. she knew most of my deepest secrets and gives the best advice.
"sorry, i got excited. this is the boy you've liked since last year we're talking about y/n, and you walked away?", she whisper-yelled.
"i know, i know. but he's also my brothers best friend nessa, i can't do that."
the school bell rang, startling the two of us.
"right, but why don't you start putting your happiness over others y/n. when have you ever done something you've liked, something you wanted to do?", she continued.
"um-"
"exactly", vanessa cut me off, "you haven't. and that's because you're always going by what your brother thinks. come on y/n, yeah it'll probably bother alejandro a bit but if this really makes you happy, he'll realize that and get over it."
what would i do without her.
"you're right, thank you nessa."
