More? Here is a bit more..hope you're like it. XXX (Alex's POV) As soon as we pulled into our driveway I noticed a shadow by the garage. I stepped out of the car and when the dark figure stepped into the light I recognized my brother. “Nick?” “Hey sis, coming home late?” His head was covered with a hood. “What the hell are you doing here?” He stepped closer and I saw a big shiner under his eye and swollen bruised lip. “Nick, what happened?” “Well, look what the cat dragged in...” Meg opened the car door. “I need to talk to you...” He stepped back into the darkness and I turned to my friends. “Guys, just go in, I'll be back.” Meg shook her head at me, but didn't say a word. James stopped for a second but Meg pulled him to the door. When the door behind them closed I turned back to my twin. “Nick, what happened to your face?” “I got robbed.” Yeah, robbed my ass. I know what happened, he lied to me, he said he'd quit gambling and stayed away from drugs. Why did I believe him? Not a single word of truth ever comes out of his mouth. Why do I keep forgiving him? “If you want to spend time on more lies I'm not interested.” I turned to head into the house but my brother caught my arm. “Alex... I need money... they'll kill me if I don't pay today, this was just a warning.” He touched his lip. “Nick... you promised me you'd stop... I don't have money, I spent my half on college and this house, I work to pay bills... not your creditors.” “I promise this is the last time, I have no one else to ask..” “Because you owe money to all your friends! Just how long do you think you'll survive like this? And what happened to your job?” “I don't get payed till the end of this month and I owe guys... please Alex, I'll pay you back.” “Nick, I don't have any money, in fact I was going to quit my job after my vacation...” “You got payed for the vacation right?” He squeezed my arm. “Plus, I see you hang out with guys who are not exactly poor...” My brother at his best. Yeah, I see you care very much that I'm quitting my job, it's all about you Nick, always has been. Why did I ever let you back into my life? “And what do they have to do with anything?” I pulled my arm from his hands. “You can ask your boyfriend...” “If I hang out with anyone, it doesn't mean I can or will ask them for anything! Even if I had a boyfriend I would never ask him for money, nor would I ever accept financial help from anyone I date. You know me better than that.” “Yeah, I know you and I wish you wouldn't be so fucking pure. What a waste... if we'd changed bodies and I was you, I would land me a billionaire and have a carefree life...” Nick grinned at me. “Too bad I wouldn't be a brother who has a mind as sick as yours. I would never offer my sister as a payment!” I spat back at him. “I don't know what you're talking about...” I saw his eyes twitch. “Bret told me why I was there when he tried to rape me, you liar! I should've never talked to you after that! That was so low, luring me backstage.. I was only seventeen and I believed you! Wow, my brother wants me to meet rockstars! If only I knew that my dear brother offered his sister to one of his drug buddies.” I heard my voice trembling. “Alex, it was just a misunderstanding... we were all drunk... he just thought you were a groupie...” He started, but was stopped by my glare. “Really? So he was lying when he told me that he bought me for a night? Tell me the truth Nick, for once tell me the truth.” I narrowed my eyes at my sibling. “He just liked you... he saw your picture at my place... and I owed him some money...” Oh... Gods.. he did... he sold me. “So you offered me? Wonder how much your sister meant to you in dollars, or was it in cocaine?” I felt tears falling from my eyes. “Alex, I was fucking high... I didn't know what I was doing... nothing happened... I stopped him, didn't I?” “You could've stop him before he ripped my shirt in front of everyone. You could've stop them when he and C.C tried to drag me to the dressing room by my hair. You only stepped in when I almost broke Bret's nose. You stepped in to save your job.” I felt lump in my throat choking me. “Alex.. I'm sorry...” “You should be! You treat people around you like they're all just your toys. You're a grown man, act like one, answer for your deeds yourself!” I turned and felt Nick's hand on my shoulder. “I'm sorry, I know I'm the worst brother in the world... but you're not like me... Alexia... If I don't bring the money within two hours I'm dead. You won't have a brother, this is not a joke, this time I ran into serious guys... I have no one else to ask... Please, I beg you!” He let go of my shoulder and dropped on his knees in front of me. “I'm sorry for everything I ever did to you, I'm sorry I always ask you for help... I'm sorry I pissed my half of father's money on gambling and drugs. I'm sorry... Alex, you're the only family I have left, please help me! I'll go to rehab, I'll do anything you ask, just please, help me!” I tried to swallow the lump in my throat and looked down on my twin. I know this is another lie, he will never change... this will never end. Every time I said it's the last time, he just weaseled his way back into my life, playing the 'only family' card. I have to end this right now. “Nick, stand up. How much do you owe?” I can't believe I'm doing it. “Three thousand.” He slowly rose up from the ground. “Three thousand?!? It's more than I make in two months! Nick! It's all I have saved!” I felt like beating the shit out of him myself. “I'll pay you back... as soon as I can...” He started but I silence him, raising my hand. “I'll give you the money, to save your sorry ass one last time. I don't want you paying me back, that's never going to happen anyway. I want you out of my life. I'll drive you to a bank machine right now and I never want to see you again. Ever.” “Thanks sis, you're the best!” A smile appeared on Nick's face. “You have no sister. We're done. Wait here.” I walked to the door, wiping my tears and suddenly feeling drained, tired, and alone. My friends were all sitting in the living room and turned to me as I walked in. “Alex, are you okay?” Meg stood up. “Yeah, I need to do something and I'll be right back.” I walked to the stairs. “You don't have to go anywhere... I never got to the bank... my father left me money to buy new equipment... it's in my room... I have three the thousand you need...” Meg walked to me. “Meg, how do you...” I turned my head to her. “We didn't mean to eavesdrop... the window was open.. and you talked a bit loud... we heard everything... sorry..” Meg squeezed my hand. I looked over at Kirk and James. Oh Gods... they heard all that? I dropped down on the stairs letting my tears fall freely. “I'm sorry you had to witness that... He is a worthless piece of shit but he's my brother... I have no other family, everyone else is dead... I can't let them kill him. I'll go to the bank tomorrow and pay you back, good thing I didn't quit my job yet...” “Alex, you can pay me back when you get a new job... I'll just use my father's stuff for now...” Meg sat by me, embracing my shoulders. “No Meg, this is my decision and it's final.” |

Weak, thankless bastard that Nick. I'd not have been so kind. If he was that desperate, he should've thought before he offered her to that Bret <.< Shithead. And Kirk and James heard it.

What a scumbag that Nick... Alex is too nice for him. I would have kicked his ass and never wanted to see him again after what he did. He's going to be asking more money later, probably. That's how it usually goes... I think it was good James heard all of it. |

Thank you girls! Here is some more. (James' POV) After the twin from Hell left, Meg turned on a movie to settle the depressing atmosphere. It was almost over and I didn't even know what the hell we were watching, I couldn't concentrate on the TV, my insides were boiling from the moment I heard Alex's conversation with her brother. I can't believe how low some people could get. To sell your own sister! I wish Meg didn't stop me when I was ready to step out and add more bruises to Nick's face. Fuck! My hand tightened up around the empty bottle in my hand. Should I go and get another beer to try to extinguish my anger? I looked at my friends. Meg and Kirk were cuddled up on the couch and didn't pay attention to the movie either, too preoccupied with each other. Alex was turning the bottle of beer in her hands and looked lost in her thoughts. This day started so good... I wish I could just hold her, tell her everything will be okay, tell her she can quit her job and doesn't have to worry about the money, I would take care of her. I just wish she'd let me. “I think I need something stronger... anyone want more drinks?” Alex stood up. “We're fine.” Kirk let go of Megs lips for a brief answer. “What do you got?” I needed something stronger too. “I have no idea... You want to come and look what's left after the birthday party?” When we got to the kitchen she opened the fridge and started pulling bottles out. “Let's see...we have rum, whiskey, vodka... I'll need some of that.” She opened the bottle of Jack Daniels and took a sip. “I'll have some of that too, if you're willing to share.” I smiled at her and she handed me the bottle. I followed her example and took a drink right from the bottle. She looks so sad.. I need to try and cheer her up.. what should we talk about? I can ask her what we're going to do tomorrow... or is it today? “Hey, tell me, do you have something to pull the engine out? You know, some kind of hoist?” “Um... nope, I guess we have to postpone that too... I'm sorry...” She sigh. “We don't have to, one of my friends has one, I can bring it here tomorrow. At least working on the car will take your mind off things...” Please say yes... “Old Betsy always made me feel better, even when I was little, you know I used to go and sit in it every time I felt sad... just cuddle up on the front seat or pretend I was driving...” “We can go and sit in the car... if you want to... I'm sure Meg and Kirk will be happy if we leave them alone, unless you want to finish watching the movie...” “To be honest I don't even know what that movie was about... I wasn't paying attention.. are you sure you're not tired?” She looked into my eyes and I barely held myself from coming closer and hugging her. Just hold her in my arms and protect from everything. “Not tired at all.” I want your company... I want to be alone with you... We made our way to the garage unnoticed by our friends and settled in the front seat of the car with a bottle of Jack Daniels. I looked at the Poison poster and turned to Alex. “Dart game?” Shit... why do I keep reminding her of that evening? Because I keep thinking about it, I can't forget what happened between us, I can't forget that kiss... “No... you know, I've been misplacing my anger on those guys for too long. I made excuses for my brother, that he was too young, too stupid, I made myself believe that Bret lied... I never asked Nick about it.. until today... I guess I always felt guilty for been our father's favorite.” “You were daddy's little girl? I can see that... just not in the daddy's little princess way..” I smiled. (Alex's POV) Princess? I hid my smile, lowering my eyes. Oh... you have no idea James... and out-loud. “No, that wasn't it... Nick never liked to do anything that my father enjoyed doing when he was home on leave from the Navy.” How similar in both lives... “You're an Army brat?” James almost chocked on the whiskey. “Sir, yes sir!” I straightened up and gave him a salute, he laughed and I smiled back at him. “Now, surrender the bottle.” “Oh, no! You have to tell me all about your childhood first.” James turned in the seat to face me, getting comfortable for a story. “Only if you tell me about yours.” I mirrored his position, pulling my crossed at the ankles legs onto the seat. “Deal.” “Okay, hopefully you'll get bored and fall asleep and then all the whiskey will be mine.” I giggled and started the story of my life in this world. Growing up knowing my mother only from her pictures, rarely seeing my father... (James' POV) Alex finished her story and looked at me. “Your turn. And hand over that bottle.” I don't know if it was the whiskey or the atmosphere or somehow Alex's eyes softened up the dam I built deep inside of me to hold all the unsaid things I felt, the things no one knew, the things I kept to myself and never shared with anyone. For some reason I felt that Alex would understand me, I could tell her anything, open up like I never opened up to anyone before. I told her what I felt when I found out that my father left us, how much I hated him, how betrayed I felt. I told her how angry I was when my mother got sick and no one around was talking about it. How lonely I felt when she died. Alex didn't interrupt me, letting this avalanche of feelings that I kept collecting all these years rush out, not leaving anything hidden, turning every rock, smashing the barriers and borders I built to protect myself from the world. When I finished I felt like a mountain had been lifted off my shoulders. (Alex's POV) I didn't say anything during James' story, I got the feeling that he was sharing something he'd never shared with anyone, that for the first time he was opening his soul and I was afraid to break this connection. When he finished I handed him the bottle, picked up a dart from the dashboard, and started twirling it in my fingers. “Gods... now I know why your music is so angry, you let it all out through your songs.” “I guess I did...” James took a sip of whiskey. “Alex... I noticed you always say Gods, not God... just what kind of religion you're in?” “Oh... it's just a old habit... as for religion, I really don't know. I'm supposed to be Lutheran, my father was, but I never got into that... I just believe that there is someone, or more like something, up there... watching over us, but not exactly interfering in our lives. More like we're here to learn life lessons... in my case I probably have to learn not to forgive lies...” I threw the dart up and it hit the ceiling at an angle and got stuck, I stretched my arm waiting for it to get down. “You never lied to anyone? Ever?” James' question reminded me what I told him about the car and I took my eyes off the dart. Does he know that I lied about the engine? I have to tell him... In the corner of my eye I saw the dart falling down and landing on the floor of the car between me and James. We both bent forward to pick it up and his head hit mine right above my right eye. “Ouch!” I grabbed to my eye, sharp pain send tears running down my face. “Oh God! I'm sorry! Let me see.” James took my face in his hands and I felt his fingers inspecting my right eyebrow. His eyes peered into mine, his fingers moved over my face, wiping my tears, and I trembled. I have to tell him... otherwise I'm not any better than my brother. “I lied once... I lied to you...” I started feeling my heart pounding in my chest. “To me? What did you lie about?” His voice came as a whisper and his face got closer. “I lied about Betsy... about the engine... I don't need to rebuild it.. when I tried to start it I knew it wouldn't work... I never put the gas back in the car after replacing the gas tank... I didn't wanted you to leave... but I didn't know how to ask you to stay... it just came out... I...” I tried to lower my head in shame, but James' hands held it in place and I returned my eyes to his. “Alex...” His thumb gently brushed against my lips and that touch made me gasp, parting my lips. Heart speed up, mind screamed: “Kiss me... please kiss me...” As the answer to my silent plea his lips enclosed mine in a feather-like touch that sent shivers of heat down my spine. My arms acted on their own, pulling him closer. Oh Gods... James... |
