The Ones For Him

|54|

I moaned, but stopped when the door opened. "You forgot your-what the fuck..."

"Shit..." Jace and I said in sync before I moved off his lap.

I stood up and didn't even look at Briar. "What the fuck, Jace? Xavier?"

"Briar, look..." I heard Jace trail off, then sigh. "It's literally what it looks like. There's no point in lying about it."

"Yeah, I just saw you making out with your brother, Jace." Briar wore a blank expression. "Why?"

I looked over at Jace and he glanced at me. "Because we love each other, and this is one of our ways of showing each other."

"You guys are in love with each other?" Briar made a face of disgust as Jace and I shook our heads.

"No, it's just brotherly love...on a deeper level." I said.

Briar finally scrunched his brows. "You guys show your love for each other by kissing? What, have you guys fucked each other because of how much you love your brotherly relationship? You can't just buy each other things or...literally just say how much you guys love each other?"

"We sometimes do...but it's not enough for us." Jace said and I nodded.

Briar looked at us, then looked away. "You guys are fucking weird..."

He walked out after that and I sighed, falling on the bed. Jace closed the door and locked it, sitting on the edge of the bed.

"I hope he doesn't tell anybody."

I nodded, and sat up. "I hope so, too."

I stood up and grabbed my bag, deciding to change into one of Dom's old hoodies. Placing the bag down on the floor, I looked at Jace and he sighed.

"Let's just worry about it tomorrow. Let's worry about going to sleep since it's the middle of the night." He turned the light off and crawled into bed, pulling me closer to his side.

I cuddled up against him and placed my arm over his waist. Jace tilted my chin up and kissed my lips, making me smile as I laid my head back down on his chest. I closed my eyes and quickly fell asleep, feeling quite relaxed in Jace's arms.

The next morning, I woke up to my brother's fingers threading through my hair. I moaned quietly and hid my face in his chest.

"Mm, Jace..." I turned my head away, and tried going back to sleep, but I felt his hand move down my back.

"It's almost the afternoon, Xavier. You've gotten enough sleep." Jace said in a quite voice, and I groaned, putting my head up to look at him.

"But I want to sleep in longer..." I pouted, but he just shook his head and sat up.

"Come on, let's get up. I'll make us some breakfast."

I sat up. "That means making breakfast for Briar, too."

Jace nodded, getting up to walk to his bathroom. I whimpered quietly and grabbed my phone to check the time.

I could hear Jace turning the sink on as I checked the missed calls and many messages from my lovers. I briefly read through them, and they all basically had the same thing. It was either that they were upset that I left again in the middle of the night, or that they were coming to pick me up later on in the day.
