Chapter 1
Beep beep beep! My phone goes off the minute I land. Quickly I reach for my suitcase in the overhead bin as I look to see who’s calling. There’s really only one person I care enough about to pick up on. I pull out my phone and see the name CAYDEN and I can’t help but smile.
Cayden wasn’t just my twin brother but also my best friend, and the only family I had left. Although you’d never be able to tell us apart in terms of looks, our personalities couldn’t be any more different. While he was chill and outgoing, I was more disciplined and reserved. I joined the army right out of high school while he went on to college. Our parents died in a car accident during my last year in service and I just wasn’t ready to come home, to face the reality of never having to see them ever again. It’s been a few years now since then and I started coming back to visit on the holidays and whenever Cayden could convince me, which was like always, with everything he wanted me to do.
“Hey bro, I just landed. You here already?”
“Yea I’m outside in my friend’s car. Look for a silver Lexus.” He replies coolly. I can hear giggling and girls talking in the background and I can’t help but roll my eyes. Cayden was the kind of guy that always let his dick make the decisions and one too many times have I had to be the one to face the girl’s wrath in his stead. That’s how it’s always been with Cayden and I. He’d always get himself into some sort of trouble and would convince me to switch places with him whenever it came to dealing with the consequences.
I walk outside with my suitcase rolling alongside me. My brother honks at me from the car he’s driving while there are hands from the back window waving frantically, to get my attention. I run over and my brother is already outside with a huge grin and his arms out stretched. We embrace and I can hear the girls in the back seat squealing in delight like it’s the kinkiest shit they’ve ever seen.
“Your brother really does look exactly like youuuu!” They call out to Cayden and he stands to face them, putting an arm over my shoulders.
“Your pick for tonight ladies?” Which has them squealing even louder and I can tell Cayden is loving every minute of it. Me? Not so much.
“Jesus it sounds like a slaughter house in there” I mumble leaning in on Cayden’s ears so only he can hear me. He turns to me and there’s a sparkle in his eyes as he smiles mischievously at me. I brace myself because I know this look all too well. He’s up to something and I’m probably not going to like it.
It’s his turn to lean into my ear and he whispers, “The only thing getting slaughtered tonight is your virginity” and all I can do is gulp.
He slams the palm of his hand on my back which almost has me stumbling forward.
“Get in bro. We’re going out tonight!”
Before I can protest he shoves me into the back seat of the car. There are two girls in the back and a hot skinny blonde girl in the front seat with my brother that eye fucks him the entire ride. The girls are passing around a bottle of vodka as we drive across the city, which they offer me some which I politely decline. They poke and pry at me and it takes all my army training not to lose my shit with them. This is why I hate drunk people.
Things only get worse when we arrive at the club. Why would anyone willingly pack themselves into a tiny little room full of drunks. I look over to where my brother is with the blonde from earlier and they’re practically fucking each other with their clothes on. Oh yea, that’s why. I stand like an idiot on the dance floor holding on to drinks as everyone dances. I’m trying so hard to vibe but I just can’t. The music’s too loud and there are too many flashing lights and I honestly just want to go home and sleep. I pretend to signal the bathroom but head outside instead to wave a cab down.
It’s a long drive to get to my old home. I pull out my key that I’ve had since before I ever left. It’s dark and quiet compared to the bright happy place I remember it being when my parents were still around. I take a deep breath to steady my emotions as I head up to my old room. Everything in it remains untouched, exactly the way I left it. I think about my mother telling me she liked to come in to read for hours whenever she missed me. This is why I never came back. I could feel the overwhelming sense of guilt begin to creep up on me as I struggled to keep them burried. I pulled out my sleeping pills and downed just enough to help me block out my thoughts.
“Beep beep”
I glance down at my phone and see a message from Cayden
“You’re no fun bro. You gotta have more faith in me and let me show you the way to the pussy. You’ll never be the same once you get a taste and you’ll be worshiping me for it after. ;) Speaking of pussy I’m getting some tonight so I won’t be back till morning.”
I figured that much.
I strip down to my boxers and get in bed. It doesn’t take long before I begin to drift off to sleep with my brother’s words running through my mind. “You’ll never be the same once you get a taste” If I was being completely honest I don’t think I would mind things finally changing in my life.
