What are you going to do about it?

I looked up upon feeling something slap the side of my face. I glared up at my brother, Victor, who was innocently playing with the peas on his plate, a wad of mashed potato now on the table. I glared across at him,

"This is why we should've ordered pizza." I sighed, stabbing a roast potato with my fork and biting it, resulting in it burning my tongue. Bastard.

"Yes we should have. Why didn't you stop me?" Victor was now turning this 'round on me. He's even more of a bastard than that bloody potato was.

"Because you were on the phone with.. Callan? Your boyfriend, anyway." I muttered, slightly pissed that he was blaming the horrible meal on me.

"His name is Kellin. You know this, Micheal." He muttered sourly, playing with the remaining peas on the plate.

With a sigh I got up, picking up my plate afterwards and scraping the monstrosity on the plate into the trash and setting the plate in the sink.

"When are Mama and Papa returning?" I asked, turning the hot tap on, filling the basin.

"Tomorrow evening... And we are ordering takeaway tomorrow." Victor replied, setting his now empty plate next to the sink,

"Now.. I am going to call my boyfriend." Victor teased, waving his phone jokingly in my face.

I shook my head and continued cleaning the dishes. Well, someone has to do it.. And victor refused, so.. Here I am. Doing dishes. Wooopde-fucking-doo.

"Miiiiiiiike!" Victor whined from upstairs.

"What, Vic?!" I yelled, placing the last piece of crockery on the draining board.

"Kellin is coming over!" WHAT. THE. FUCK. I mean, its not a bad thing.. Well, not exactly. They hardly see each other with Kellin's hectic work schedule, or that's what Vic told me. I've only ever spoken to him over the phone when Victor got extremely drunk one night.

"Uhm.. Okay!" I yelled back, not seeing why he needed to tell me this.

"We'll be quiet!" He screamed, I'm assuming for the irony although it wasn't all that funny.

"I did not need to know that, Victor."

And that's when I heard a crash followed by a bang.

"Did you fall down the stairs again?!" I laughed loudly, not turning around.

"Shut up." Victor grumbled as he opened the fridge and grabbed an apple.

"We've just had dinner, Victor." Our family had strict beliefs, such as 'No snacking between meals' or that 'Homosexuality is a sin.' Although the second one was a whole lot worse on us. As, well, their eldest son is a flaming homo having to sneak about with his boyfriend, but we don't talk about that.

"Yes, but it was shit. And neither of us ate much of it, anyway." He shrugged, hopping up onto the counter next to me.

"What's bothering you, hermano?" He was an observant little shit when he wanted to be, I'll give him that.

"Nothing." I muttered, drying a spoon.

Vic took the spoon out of my hand and put it down with force onto the draining board.

"Bullshit." He stated bluntly, pushing his hair back.

"Just.. Something happened, okay?" Why I was telling him this? I have no fucking clue.

"Okay. And that something is?.." He was prying now. And I Fucking hate when people pry.

"I don't want to talk about it." I said forcefully, picking up the spoon again and setting it in the cutlery drawer.

"Did you... " Oh god, he'd going to guess. "Did you.. Break up with someone?" He squinted, looking like a fucking cat.

"No, as matter of fact, I did not." I hissed bitterly.

"Tell me,Mike. I'm your brother!" He demanded, sounding only slightly like a toddler. Only slightly.

"I don't need to listen to this." I sighed and turned around, pushing in my chair.

But Victor just had to catch my fucking arm, didn't he? I craned my neck slightly to look at him, having to look down a little. He's so little.

"You can trust me, you know." He spoke softly, his eyes glinting with sincerity.

I looked at him for a few moments, the air filled with a tense silence. "Okay." I said softly, nodding.
