I Don’t Want To Be A Wife!

Lesbian

“I beg your pardon?” Kin wasn't sure he heard that right, he liked Rachel the most among all the harem ladies, she was kind, gentle, and a very understanding person; she was the one who visited Layla the most when she was in the hospital, she even tried to convince Leonard to visit Layla and helped Lucas through all the hardship he had to endure when Layla was suffering. She was the only person he wanted Leonard to be with, but if she didn't like Leonard then how was she going to meet Layla and Lucas? He wanted her to be Layla's friend or the friendly rival, that always exists in stories. His life was a lie, everything was a lie, she was gay, a lesbian, a person who loved girls. 

“I am gay.” Rachel reiterated, wanting to roll her eyes so badly, couldn't he just take no as an honest? This is what was annoying about guys, they don't know when to give up and don't get hints, that was she switched to girls, along with other reasons.

“Are you sure about that? Maybe it’s just a mistake or something.” Kin didn't want to accept the fact that Layla won't have a relationship with Rachel. He was planning on pushing all the harem ladies away except Rachel but that was ruined by his discovery.

“My sexuality is not a mistake and you have no right to speak about it, now if you will excuse me I have work to do, I will send a coworker to help you.” Rachel said and tried to hold her anger back, but she couldn't do it for long, the moment she reached the door, she opened it and slammed it close after she left, she had enough of people thinking it was just a mistake, a phase or misunderstanding, now she had to endure it in her job as well, great.

“I messed up, but how she was supposed to be in love with Leonard? If she is gay then how did she fall in love with him? Or is she just lying to avoid trouble and stop me from being interested in her? Hmm, I am not good at taking hints so I won’t be able to know on my own, wait, that doesn't matter, I can just make them friends with my ability, how do people make friends again?" Kin thought about it hard, he hadn't made friends in years and his college friends were the ones who approached him, how did they do it? They asked for his notes and.....the rest was fuzzy, but the first step was to make them meet, easy; he would ask to bring him something and create an interaction between the two, how hard can it be? (Lol)

After he arranged his thoughts, he was finally able to hear the knock on the door, he fixed himself, sat on his desk, and coughed to make his voice a bit deeper, he was playing the role well, for now, and he said: “Come in.”

“Hello, sir, I am Luna, I would be the one assisting you for the day, how may I help you?” Luna said with a sweet smile with her hands clasped together in front of her; she was nervous to meet the new boss and after what happened with Rachel, she got even more nervous than he was a bad person, especially with the expression, Rachel told her to go to the new boss's office, she needed to treat her to lunch to lunch later to make her feel better; she was new and she didn't want her to lose hope in the industry already.

“Can you arrange a meeting with the two actors under us? I need to talk to them.” Kin asked her with the deepest voice he could summon but gave up halfway through because it hurt his vocal cords, which made Luna almost chuckle but she controlled herself.

“Of course, right away sir.” Lucas responded and left his office to call the actors, while he sat in his office and tried to decide on how to apologize to Rachel because what he did to her was extremely rude and inappropriate. 

  A few hours away from Kin's location, a bus was driving through the highway, with students inside of it, who were all laughing and having the time of their life, except one of them, who was stretching her cheeks and asked her friend: “Do you think I am getting fat?”

“No, you are not, but you are cute.” Nicholas said and ate another chip, enjoying the taste and thanking himself for drinking his motion sickness medicine before getting in the bus, he was lucky to remember bringing it, otherwise, he would be puking when going through the turns and not shoving delicious food in his mouth.

“Thanks but I think I am getting chubby, just look at my cheeks.” Layla stretched her cheeks more and wondered why she gained weight these past months, maybe it was due to the fact that she ate all the unsuccessful attempts of her cooking, just an idea because Lucas ate them too and didn't gain any weight, but he goes to the gym and she doesn't, she need to go to the gym then.

“I am, they are adorable and full. Makes me want to bite on them.” Nicholas said and tried to pinch her cheeks but she moved away and pointed her finger at him, and warned him.

“Don’t you dare, I had someone do that to me before and it hurts so much, my cheeks aren’t buns, they are not edible.” When she was a child, almost 8 years old, one of her uncles tried to bite her cheeks as a joke, she was on the fat side at that point of her life, so even though he didn't try, he ended biting her and that s**t hurt so much.

“I won’t know unless I try.” Nicholas said and laughed evilly, approaching her slowly, he held her and put his mouth on her cheek.

“Nooo.” Layla complained, even though he didn't really bite or even lick him, but he pretended to and licked his lips after he moved away and said: “Hmm, taste good, need some sugar though.”

“I hate you." Layla said and wiped her cheek, looking away to see that all of their classmates were staring at them, which made her turn back at Nicholas, who smirked and winked at her. "You are smarter than I thought."

  "I read enough stories to know how to act as the fake boyfriend and keep the facade, but anyway, why do you want me to be your boyfriend again?" Nicholas was curious about what kind of reasoning Layla had to pretend to have as a boyfriend in front of her brother, and even risk being his wife, the reason might be related to the mangas he lent her the other day.

  And yes, that was completely true, it was related to a manga she read and decide to execute the same plan the uke had, hoping that it would work as good as it did for him. Spoiler alert, it won't.

To put it simply, Layla wanted to distance herself from her two brothers slowly and create a mood where the two of them are more than just brothers, and because they were extremely close to each other, she couldn’t do it all of a sudden, it would be suspicious and even if she did slowly, they would also be suspicious.

She never had a life outside of their relationship, it was all school, her brothers, and now her work as a waitress, she didn’t have friends other than Nicholas and she was only friends with him because he talked to her first and she got along with him fairly well, but that still won’t be a good excuse to her brothers, especially Lucas, for him, the family was closer than friends and he knew she thought the same.

And with that in mind, having Nicholas as her boyfriend was her best choice, she would pretend to go on dates with him and spend a few nights at his house, so that her brothers would have some moments together.

When she explained that to Nicholas, he only said: “You want to be my wife, huh?” Which was heard by their classmates, who assumed they were going to get married soon, which meant Layla was pregnant.

“What? Oh, your mom.” Layla remembered what Nicholas told her the other day and understood that Nicholas’s mother won’t see that as just a classmate it friend staying over, she would see it as them taking the next step.

“If my mom sees you in our house for just night, she will bring the marriage papers and the tickets to Japan the next day, not that I mind going to Japan with you but I don’t want it to be like us being a couple, no offense but you are not my type.” Nicholas was more into brunettes with glasses than Layla with her black hair and no glasses, she was a beautiful girl for sure but not the kind who was beautiful to him.

“No offense taken, you are not mine either. But nighttime is like the perfect time for couples to bond, be it cuddling, cooking dinner together, watching a movie, or just relaxing after a long day of work and I don’t want to be in the middle of that.” Based on what Layla read, nighttime is the holy hour or hours in this case for couples, especially ones who don’t have anyone to interrupt them and she wanted her brothers to be one of those couples, that way they would get closer to each other and fall in love! (Or Kin would fall in love with Lu, same things, just added words.)

“Can’t you just stay at someone’s house and tell them you stayed at mine?” As much as Nicholas liked Layla as a friend, he couldn’t let his future be ruined, he doesn’t want to be forced to get married to her under the pressure his mother would put on him if Layla came to their home.

“I don’t have any friends other than you, do you?” Layla could stay at one of Nicholas’s female friend’s houses but unfortunately, he didn’t have those either, he didn’t have any friends other than her.

“Me neither, not males nor females, we are pathetic.” Nicholas looked down and ate candy, to stop the tears from coming down. His schedule was so full, that even if he had friends, he wouldn’t have time to hang out with them and they would end up being strangers in less than a year, that what happened with all of his previous friends, he grew distant from all of them until one day, he lost contact with them.

“Don’t say that, we don’t need any other friends, we have each other.” Layla held Nicholas’s hand and smiled at him, she reassured him that they only needed one another to survive in life. She didn’t dislike not having friends, she had her brothers, she did feel lonely sometimes but then came along Nicholas. He was merely a classmate at first but then they got closer and closer, with each week passing and when he opened up to her about his life, they got even closer that was what allowed her to tell him about her plan to make her brother lovers.

Normally, you won’t tell an idea like that to anyone, because they would think you were weird and creepy but Nicholas didn’t, maybe because he read so much manga about bl brothers love but she liked to believe, it was because he understood why she was doing it.

“I guess you are right, I am not ready for other friends, either way, I am too busy for them.” Nicholas tried to comfort himself and reminded himself that he can’t have friends for a reason, it was hard to even manage to talk and spend time with Layla.

With that out of the way, the two started thinking of a way to solve the problem of where Layla can sleep when Nicholas remembered his cousin, the only person who liked him in his mother’s side of the family.

“Oh, I remembered, I can talk to my cousin, she is the nicest person ever and she would definitely say yes to you staying with her and I can even stay with you, my mom won’t suspect a thing because I usually visit her once a month and stay with her for a couple of days, and, her house is close to our high school, we will have more time to sleep.” Nicholas got happier with each sentence he spoke, his cousin’s house was the second best thing about her, besides her lovely personality and he can sleep for more than four hours there, that was part of the reason he visited every single month and stayed there for days, even though he could just visit in the evening and come back home at night.

“Are you sure? Won’t we bother her?”

“Oh please, she loves guests, she is always home alone because her boyfriend is from another country and she doesn’t have many friends to visit her either, kind of like us.” Nicholas said and Layla nodded, making plans in her calendar to go stay with Nicholas and his cousin, next week when she would be back.
