brother's best friend

That's not only a huge pillar in every relationship in the world, but also a line that separates what doesn't belong together.

And with that, there was you, the exception that Theodore so desperatly wanted to make.

You were Mattheo's little sister (excuse the fact you were twins), you were asecret burning desire inside of his mind, you were off limits.. but again, that never stopped Theodore before.

It all started two years ago, close to the 5th year beggining, in the same summer house in Italy, when Theo and Gabby started looking at each other with eyes you only give to someone you want.

She was growing into a gorgeous woman, and so was he, turning into this sinfully beautiful man, and oh.. the girl asked herself too many times, how could she think of him as only Mattheo's best friend for years and some random day, boom! it turned into silent, secret glances stolen in crowded rooms, little smiles only the two understood, a quiet desire whispering around them, tempting.

Despite everything, they never made a move, they couldn't, but... away from the watchfull eyes of everyone, would they?

[...]

Against the wood of the pool table, under a yellowish lamp, with a beer bottle, almost empty and the ever-present hard stares, there he was, shattering her world by simply being around.

Gabby was beyong tipsy to care if he saw her at the local bar she shouldn't be, she was far too gone to think about the consequences of stepping closer to him when her brother disappeared with some girl.

She couldn't care, but her heart still beated faster as he glanced down at her with his chocolate eyes.

"You're supposed to be at home" his voice is sharp.
