Chapter 2

 

Dinner that night was an ordeal. Nothing was said about the incident, but it was as if somebody had set a time bomb - it was bound to go off sooner or later. The only person who didn't seem to notice the underlying tension was Syusuke, eyes closed in classic style as he added several spices to his meal.

 

Eventually, Mr Fuji could take it no more. He stood up, pushing his chair back with a horrible scraping noise, and ordered his sons to explain.

 

Yuuta blushed a horrible shade of red, looking as though he wished the ground would, at that exact moment, crack open and swallow him up.

 

“It was just sex” said Syusuke calmly

 

“Just sex?!” asked his mother, shocked. “It was incest! And you're not even 15!”

 

Yuuta shot a look at his brother. Syusuke had made him feel like there was something special, and after all that, it was just about sex? Fine. Then it was sex Syusuke would never get again.

 

Yuuta abruptly stood up and walked out of the room.

 

A flicker of worry appeared briefly in Syusuke's eyes, then, unnoticed, it was gone. Syusuke quickly replaced it with his usual clam expression.

 

Excusing himself from his concerned parents, Syusuke explained that he had homework to do and headed to his room.

 

Pulling out a random textbook for the look of things, he settled down to wait for Yuuta, knowing his brother would come to him - if only to demand an explanation.

 

He was right. Syusuke had barely enough time to get into his homework before Yuuta came storming in. Syusuke stood, placing a finger on his brother's lips, warning him to be silent before he'd even started. “What do you think they'd do if I told them I was serious?” he said quietly, before removing his finger from Yuuta's lips, thereby allowing his brother to speak.

 

Yuuta gaped at his brother, then stared at the ground. “So…?” His voice was hoarse.

 

Syusuke wrapped his arms around his brother, holding him close. “I never meant to hurt you” he whispered. He was silent for a while. Then he quietly spoke again. “… If you want, you can forget about this whole thing. Pretend it never happened”

 

Yuuta thought for a while, making no attempt to extricate himself from his brother's embrace. Syusuke was offering him a way out? Common sense told him he should take it. But… Syusuke had made him feel… something indescribable. He didn't want to let that feeling go.

 

He closed his eyes for a second, then opened them again. Hoping like hell he was making the right decision, he tilted his head up and kissed his brother on the lips.

 

“No. I don't want to forget” he said when he pulled away.

 

Syusuke kissed him back quickly before releasing his brother and pushing him towards the door.

 

Yuuta stumbled slightly, looking questioningly at Syusuke.

 

“We can't let them catch us again” explained Syusuke, noticing Yuuta's expression.

 

Understanding dawned in Yuuta's eyes. He nodded, before quickly leaving the room, not a moment too soon. As he slipped into his own room, he heard their mother's footsteps coming up the stairs.

 

 

I'm actually not really sure how long I can continue this. I admit, I am a little uncomfortable with writing about two brothers falling in love with each other. And yet for them to have a relationship against this sort of controversy, I feel that love is a necessary factor.

 

So this is really hard for me. Please be patient. And review. This is one story I won't write unless I get satisfactory reviews.
