Chapter 15:
âDo you have any idea what a guy like that would do to someone like you?â Russ preached, shaking his head as he stared at the TV across the room from his seat on the couch. He didnât move over or offer Aneski a space, just sat there drinking his beer, intermittently laughing at the sitcom he was watching.
Ani had only just walked in the door when his brother called him over and started in on him. On the one hand, he couldnât even blame him becauseâ¦
âBut youâre fine with him?â he shouldnât talk back, knew better than to poke his brother when he was in this state, but he couldnât seem to help himself.
Russ grunted. âOf course. He wonât hurt me. Iâm older than he is.â
âAge has nothing to do with this.â
âYouâre only saying that because youâre the youngest. You donât get it. Do you really think Flix would give you the time of day if not for me? What? I bet you fantasize about what it would be like if I was out of the picture, donât you? Wish you could make your move? You want me gone, little brother?â
âNo,â he shook his head, not liking where this was going. How much exactly had Russ had to drink before heâd arrived? His gaze swept the surface of the coffee table, which was littered with beer bottles, some empty, some unopened.
There were only six empties. That shouldnât be enough to get Russ wasted.
âNow youâre a liar too,â Russ said snidely.
The age gap was smaller between Aneski and Flix than it was Russ and him, with Russ being three years older than his brother and two years older than the Brumal member of topic. But heâd meant what heâd said. Age didnât really come into play in Aneskiâs mind. Not here. It wasnât like they were decades apart or anything, and this year, once he started his first semester at Guest, theyâd all be university students.
âTrust me,â Russ sighed. âGetting involved with the Brumal is naïve, and despite his physical appearance, Flix is no angel. If youâd heard about half the things heâd done, youâd lock yourself in your room and refuse to come out whenever he was over. Not swoon and stare at him longingly like a love-sick puppy the way that you do.â
âI do not.â He did. He knew he did, and apparently, so did his brother.
Was Flix aware? Had he caught on?
Was he just not saying anything to be nice and not embarrass Ani?
Something must have flashed across his face because Russ glanced at him and then rolled his eyes. âPathetic. What do your friends think, huh? Did you tell them youâre lusting over your brotherâsââ
A knock on the door interrupted, and without waiting for one of them to answer, Flix opened it and strolled in. He spotted them in the small living area and came right over, tossing an arm around Aneskiâs shoulders to tug him in close as he casually nodded his head at Russ.
