Yugo stared at the white of his wall, pretending to sleep as he heard Yuya, once again, startle into wakefulness from his dozing. Yugo had to fight the urge to get up and approach their little brother, though. The plan wouldn't work if he did that. Yuya would be suspicious. So Yugo bit his lip and waited, listening to Yuya struggle against something he couldn't fight in the worst way possible.
Yugo turned in his bed, closing his eyes to make sure Yuya didn't know he was awake. Yugo fought the urge to fall asleep as soon as his eyes shut and waited. He heard Yuya shift, signalling that he was no longer looking at his blue eyed brother.
Yugo opened his eyes and turned his attention to the alarm clock in between their beds.
2:30 AM.
They should be finished by now, he thought.
Yugo shifted again, making a show of sitting up. He rose slowly from his bed, looking over at Yuya who had closed his eyes so Yugo wouldn't know he was awake.
Yugo slipped out from under his covers and put on his slippers. He walked quietly to the door, opening it just enough and walking into the hallway. He left the door cracked open, so the light of the hallway night light would shine through.
Making his way down the stairs, Yugo met up with his older brothers.
Yuya was a curious kid. He'd get suspicious when Yugo didn't return to the bedroom.
All that was left to do was wait.
