Chapter 9: Make-up.

"f**k, f**k, f**k…" I was running around the small town looking for my brother. Asking random girls that swooned as they heard his name, but none of the dummies gave me info that was helpful. I took a break to breathe in the fresh salted air, thinking of all the spots we'd found in our runs around this place. When it clicked… one of the first spots we'd found when we came into town over the little bridge that ran through the mountain side.

I sprinted off through to the other side of the town, hopping the street barrier and just missing getting smoked by a passing car, my heart pounded in my chest with the rush of adrenaline. Making it to the other side of the road, alive, I jumped down to a narrow dirt path. It was smooth trail thanks to the water that drained through on rainy days and was met with a small creek at the end. Following the passage until I saw the familiar orange curtains of the bike shop, this was cue to jump back up to street level.

"What the f**k is Rory thinking." I felt drained, the stress of home, my brother and now Nico were piling up on me. School ending and… two months until my birthday… "Fifty-seven days…" Was Nico talking about me? The chilling feeling from before ran through my body. A group of girls huddled across the street, they looked over and giggled when I made eye contact. It irritated me and I slipped in between two close buildings that opened up to another back path. "Tsk, do these girls ever stop."

I couldn't wrap my head around the fact that Rory felt like he lived in my shadow, all the girls around town adored him and he did better in school than I ever have. What was Nico praying on?

This time I chose to look both ways before crossing the road and the passing cars gave a cool rush of air I welcomed with literal open arms. I cared very little for the odd stares the passerby's gave me and flipped a greeting to them as I ran to the other side. Rows of houses lined this street and I walked through a broken open gate, giving a small run to jump the fence at the far end of the yard. It lead to yet another worn dirt path that weaved through a small patch of huddled trees leading to an open park.

I just had to pass one last row of small shops to get to the main road out of the tiny town. I hopped up on the thigh high poles that lined the outer part of the park jumping from one to the other, balancing on the last one until the little man popped up to cross the road.

"That kid better freaking be there." I jogged to the edge of the main road that became a bridge to bypass the small creek beneath. Instead of walking along the road I took hold of the railing and walked on the small ledge on the outside of the bridge.

A small red car had slowed down beside me and a older couple rolled their window down, "You know you shouldn't be walking over there."

"Go suck a d**k," I didn't need anymore lectures from adults, they scoffed at my reply and spead off. I made it to the end of the bridge, right before it disappeared into the mountain side and I dropped down.

I let out a sigh of relief as I met my brother gorgeous bright blue eyes. "There you are… been looking all over for you, brat." He was sitting with his knees to his chest, he looked back into the flowing water and buried his chin into his knees. "Don't give me the silent treatment man…" I sat close next to him so our thighs touched, it gave me a surge of excitement being close to him in such a secluded place.

"Geez, don't talk to you for a few hours and you think I'm giving you the silent treatment?" He was mumbling as he spoke. He's so adorable. I couldn't honestly stay mad at Rory for long.

"Well it's not like you left on a good note, Rory. Running like a baby." I nudged him playfully as I brought my knees up to my chest like Rory but rested my head on them as I watched him. "So… I went to talk to Nico. He didn't tell me much, but I didn't like the bits he told me."

"Don't worry about it." He continued to avoid my gaze. It made me want to reach over and force his eyes to look at me, but I held the urge to dominate my small brother.

"No. No. No, it's not 'don't worry about it' B.S. You need to tell me what the hell is going on. About both this s**t about being in my shadow? And you f*****g sneaking off to talk to Nico." Rory squeezed his knees closer to his chest . I took a deep breath trying to not lose my cool with him. "Okay, first things first… why would you think you're in my shadow?"

I gave Rory time to reply, it took a lot of strength to hold back before giving him a small nudge. "I… You… you always take care of everything… and you know how to talk to people and make them, you know like… real friends... People that would help you out in our desperate times." Rory let go of his knees and took hold of my arm while resting his head on my shoulder, it set my body on fire with the small contact. "I'm sorry… I just. I don't know… wanted to be able to have that friend we could go to."

I looked down at my little brother, the cuteness of him wanting to take care of me made my heart burst with joy. I couldn't be mad, he had me wrapped around his little finger. I pulled my arm from his grip and wrapped it around him giving him a small kiss on his forehead. I pulled him close resting my head on his soft hair, he smelt like the fruity shampoo most girls used. It had been far too long since we had a moment like this, I'd missed them more than I'd thought. I indulged in the thought of us sharing a bed, just like when we were little.

"Loni…" He was letting out soft sobs as he spoke, "I-I'm sorry… I just wanted to give you a break from worrying about us… I wanted to be the one to take care of us for once." My mind ran with perverse thoughts of kissing him all over and telling him it would all be alright.

"Oh shut up… you just need to worry about school and getting good grades. Besides, you have mounds of girls falling at your feet. Snap your fingers and they'll do anything you want." I gave Rory a reassuring squeeze. As much as I didn't like the girls fawning over him, they would do anything to get his full attention. It was useful talent that Rory never took advantage of in his innocence.

He pulled away from me, his big watery blue eyes looking up at me. It made my heart race and I was fighting against the urge to plant a kiss on those pink, pouty lips. Instead I chose to wipe the tears falling down his soft cheeks as he spoke. "I'm sorry about that too…"

"What?"

"You know… taking all the girls. Even when they're into you… I just can't… can't stand you looking at other girls." Rory had pulled my hands down from his face, but didn't let go. I looked at my brother in shock, I hadn't thought he ever intentionally chased the girls I hooked up with. The soft trickle of the creeks water amplified under the bridge in the silence after his words.

How could he say such cute things. I tried my best to brush it off, "Ha. You know all I think about is us… like I got time for girls Rory." It was becoming harder to fight the urge to take those luscious lips in my own. To pry them open with my wet muscle and explore his dark cavern, my body ached for contact. His soft pale skin reflected the shimmers of light off the moving water.

That's when I felt them, my brother's soft lips planted gently on my own. "Thank you Loni." The gentle kiss wasn't enough, it sparked a fire deep in my gut, vibrating back through my body and I was lost. My hand wrapped around the back of his neck and brought him in for another kiss deeper than the first the unexpected lip lock. My heart raced with the excitement of the forbidden fruit being tasted finally. Rory didn't resist the second kiss and it set me off even more.

I'm sure my mind was telling me to stop and enjoying the sweet taste of my little brother was wrong, but he fanned an ember into a raging fire that consumed me. He was a master as he slipped his wet muscle into my mouth, letting me devour the delicate taste of him. My free hand had found the hem of his shirt and I tugged at it to pull him closer. He broke our kiss as he crawled into my lap. "Oh, fuck... Rory…" Echo's of the passing cars and birds singing played in the background. I was drowning in the bright blue eyes that watched me. His little body nestled close to my own and I felt a heat build bellow my belt, my hands slid under his light tee feeling his delicate soft skin.

"Loni… I-I want to be... aah-hah... t-the only... one y-you-nnh... think about." He was letting out soft moans between each word as I planted kisses under his sensitive ears and down his open neck.

"You already are… dummy." I pulled him in for another kiss, I hadn't remembered the last time I sat and made out with someone. Any memory of previous lips had been taken over by Rory's skilled ones. I craved more, I ravished his exposed skin. Taking note of every twitch and moan my fingers could generate from my brother. The fact that this moment was so easy to accept was a thrill to me, something so wrong shared between two brother's. I didn't want it to end for us, and we got lost in a secret kiss under the bridge.
