My brother In-law

Chapter 12

Matt p.o.v.

I really did hate seeing my crush cry, it hurt me deep too...I felt like crying along with her but I know I can't now.

I have to be strong for Mia.

What mother said to Mia was so terrible...I feel so bad for Mia.

What has Mia done to deserve all these! She's such an innocent girl with a sweet soul...if only she were mine.

She really loves Mark so much and there's no doubt.

Matt: It's okay Mia...Mark is such an asshole. He doesn't deserve you.

I only said that so Mia could hate Mark...I hated seeing them together. I said that even if I know he wasn't but yeah I would go to any extreme to make Mia mine and to break their bond...

Mia will be mine one day...just one day and then we will run away together.

Yeah I know I'm taking advantage of her hurtness to make Mia hate Mark! Oh well I just have to do that. I have no other choice. Like I said I will do anything to ruin their relationship.

She cried on my chest for half an hour and trust me I didn't stop consoling her...I could go the whole day without food just to be with her...

Slowly she reduced how she was crying..but she didn't stop crying...

I could see little drops of tears still rolling down her cheeks..

I pulled her in gently and hugged her for few minutes...

Wow! She let me do that without her shouting.

Mia: Matt.

Matt: Yeah.

She sniffs.

Mia: I want you to be honest with me.

Matt: Sure...I'm always honest with you..

She rolls her eyes at me and wipes her tears.

Damn!! She still looks beautiful as ever even with those tears!

People may call me selfish, yeah I'm selfish when it comes in taking what belongs to me and Mia belongs to me.

Mia stalls for few seconds until she sigh and then spoke;

Mia: Who's Ashley?

Matt: uhmm...do you really wanna know?

Mia: if I didn't want to know I wouldn't have asked? Think about it.

Now she's back to her fierce type! She drives me crazy.

Matt: Okay fine...I'll tell you all what I know about her, are you okay standing?

Mia: Start talking.

Oops.

Matt: Ashley is the girl my mum wanted Mark to get married to.

Mia: What?! But why?

Matt: I don't know...maybe my mum never liked you but that doesn't make sense to me..how can she like you for no f*****g reason! Are you sure you didn't do anything to her?

Mia: No Matt...I didn't.

She sounded so true with her calm and sweet voice.

Mia: sometimes I even wonder why she dislikes me this much.

Matt: hate would be more accurate but yeah my mum doesn't like people who come from poor backgrounds and middle class but I'm sure that's not the only reason she doesn't like you, there's more but that's part of that.

Mia: f**k that!

Matt: I swear!

Matt: That's a stupid reason to hate on someone...I need more information about Ashley. Did her and Mark have something going on with each other? Please I want nothing but the truth.

Matt: Lol I'm not gonna lie to you, like I said I'll tell you everything I know.

Mia: Okay thanks.

Matt: Wow...first time you're being nice.

Mia: Start talking!!

Matt: Yes ma'am. Well her and Mark developed a good relationship with each other but not a romantic one I guess, they were good friends and trust me there were comfortable with each other. I've never seen Mark comfortable with any other lady apart from her, Ashley comes from a wealthy family and she's also rich as well...she has her own business and it's profitable! I heard mum saying she makes $500,000 every year.

Mia: Damn that's a lot of money.

Matt: Exactly and that one Is only from her clothing line business...she does two businesses and in total she makes like more than a million dollar every year and she's just 23!

Mia: What the hell.

Matt: Exactly...well I don't know much about their relationship...they keep it private but yeah she spends lot of time with Mark and they have sleepovers over at Mark's room but I'm not sure if they've dated because back then i was out of the country and just come back for vacations..

Mia p.o.v

I felt so jealous and hurt.

Why didn't Mark never mention Ashley to me while we were dating, why did he keep it a secret if nothing was serious between them..I really have to know if they were serious.

Have Mark been cheating on me while I was dating with him with that rich girl.

I have to ask Matt if they have slept with each other if she goes to sleepovers in his room...

Mia: Uhmm..Matt I want to ask another question.

Matt: you may but I have my condition's.

Mia: Really?! I hope it isn't s****l cause I'm not crossing the line with you..

He chuckles.

Matt: No gorgeous not at all, I promise to respect myself today instead why don't we do question for a question.

Mia: Meaning?

Matt: if I answer to any of your questions...I'll have to ask mine moreover I have lots of questions in my head for you.

Mia: fine...

I roll my eyes.

He winks at me.

Matt: You may go on.

Mia: uhmm...have...umm they both slept with each other like had sex..

I know I sounded so childish and desperate, I sounded so awkward.

Matt even started looking at me confusingly.

Matt: Are you that desperate for Mark? I mean do you that love him?

I could feel the hurtness in his voice.

Mia: Just answer Matt. I beg you.

Matt: I think so...I mean why not when they share the same bed...and I mean Ashely is damn hot so it would be hard for Mark not to do anything with her besides they spend a lot of time in that room of his.

Mia: Mark has self control! He's not like you!

Matt: Common I'm not that much of a s*x addict...I also do have, it's not every lady I f**k.

Mia: but it's every lady you flirt with Matt.

Matt: Yeah but certainly not the way I do to you, yours is different, you drive me more crazy Mia and you're more special to me. I don't like them as much as I do to you.

I roll my eyes.

Mia: I thought you said you will respect yourself today with me and I don't like what you're saying so cut it off.

Matt: my apology beautiful.

Mia: Hmm...apology accepted. Let me just try forgive you..

He chuckles.

Matt: But trust me she's not more beautiful and sexy as you are! Mia you're the most gorgeous lady I've set my eye on and it hurts me that you're not mine but his! Life isn't fair.

Mia: So you think they have had s*x?

Matt: Yeah I mean why not...It's not like Mark is a saint.

I roll my eyes..

Matt: Now my turn for questions.

Mia: ask what you want ask...I'm already tired of this..

I'm feeling so hurt inside me...I still feel like breaking down more.

Could Mark and Ashley really have slept with each other.

Matt: So you're ready?

Mia: bring it on already.

Matt: okay...

He clears his throat.

No doubt the question he was gonna ask was gonna be foolish.

Clearing his throat like he was gonna say something good.

Matt: Have you ever considered me attractive, like your type?

Mia: What kind of question Is that?

Matt: You have to answer besides I didn't criticize your question so don't criticize mine..

I roll my eyes at him and sigh.

Mia: Yes I have. isn't it obvious you are?

Matt: I knew it...I'm just too beautiful for a man. A lot of people have told me that.

Mia: Never say that again, please, damn it. I scoff. " you feel yourself too much.

Matt: Next question. Have you ever thought of us being in a romantic relationship...imagine how it would be like.

Mia: No I haven't. Eww, that's an inappropriate question.

Matt: Not fair. breaking my heart again.

I roll my eyes and sigh again.

Matt: now last question. Can you be my friend...I really want us to get to know each other. Please Mia, just give me a chance to be your friend. I'm really tired of you always yelling at me...I promise I'll act appropriate around you. I wouldn't do anything to you that you don't like.

Mia: it looks like a hard promise for you to make.

Matt: no serious, you have my word gorgeous...just give me a chance please. Please I really want us to be friends.

Matt Is so desperate in being my friend and getting to know me, what is he thinking of. Is he planning something bad.

Mia: why? Why do you want us to be friends?

Matt: Easy! You're a very fun person to be with! I really do want to get to know you! I don't wanna miss a chance! I'm asking for a second chance and I promise I won't misbehave! Can we start afresh! Let's just say you're seeing me for the first time..please gorgeous don't refuse this offer.

Mia: for a boy like you they are conditions in being my friend.

Matt: okay...spill it out.

Mia: okay...so yeah no romantic names or flirty names just call me Mia.

Matt: Noted gorgeous...I mean Mia.

Mia: And no touching, friends aren't meant to touch and do inappropriate things with each other right? especially If the friend is married. I said widening my eyes as i lay emphasis on that one.

Matt: Yeah..

He rolls his eyes.

Mia: Good.

Matt: and yeah if I loose control with you can you do me the favor by slapping me, that would make me know my stand.

Mia: Wow...my pleasure..

I chuckle.

Matt: so what do you say...friends?

Mia: uhmm...maybe now you've accepted my condition's.

Matt: I have something to say.

Mia: Sure.

Matt: Forgive me for disrespecting you and touching you innapriopatley, I really want to develop this friendship thing so good with you.

Wow...Matt is so desperate in being my friend but still I can't still trust this guy...not at all.

By the way I still know his motives is to separate me and Mark.

I have to confirm!

Mia: What's your plan anyways! Are you planning something evil in that head of yours?

Matt: No Mia...not anymore, I don't want to do anything that would risk losing you. I hate seeing you always mad at me Mia, we have never had a proper conversation and a good brother and sister in law relationship with each other.

Mia: Good that you said that, I'm your sister in law and no brother can do dirty things with his sister in law right?

Matt: I wish I could say you're wrong but you're right, it hurts.

Mia: and I guess you still don't want to seperate me and Mark.

Matt: Yeah kind of...but that doesn't mean I will stop trying everything in my power to impress you and make you fall for me.

I face palm as I roll my eyes.

Matt: And yeah one more thing if you and Mark relationship don't work out just know I'm next in line.

Mia: Matt?!!!

He winks at me while I roll my eyes and face palm.

Matt: so now that we are friend's why don't we do a confession, I have something to tell you Mia.

Mia: Go on.

Matt: you remember I told you that my mum wanted Mark to marry Ash and not you.

Mia: yeah..yeah that rich girl.

Matt: Yeah...I thought she was gonna be Mark's bride until I saw you getting married to him. I was heart broken Mia cause I had plan for us Mia after that fire incident like I explained, I tried explaining to you but you never wanted to listen!

Mia: Yeah i know and that was why you were staring at me like that on me and Mark's wedding.

Matt: Yeah and I'm sorry if it disturbed you.

Mia: you're forgiven.

Matt: I'm also sorry for being a p*****t and an asshole.

Mia: Glad you accepted but you are forgiven.

Matt: So what's your confession?

Mia: I don't think there's one.

Matt: About me being good looking. he whisper looking somewhere else as i playfully hit him on his chest.

Mia: you do love when girls give you compliments about your looks don't you? I said rolling my eyes as I chuckle.

Matt: Not them, you. he said and I softly chuckle.

Mia: I really hope I don't regret having you as a friend.

Matt: You won't Mrs.

Mia: Good. He smiled and I smiled back.

We got so along with each other in a short while but I know I'm not gonna trust him so soon and be open to him so much...

Matt: So how about we get to know more about each other in the mean while.

Mia: Yeah okay..

Matt: And yeah we have to get this place tidy.

Mia: right.

I started attending to the mess I caused and then Matt stopped me.

Matt: What are you doing Mia?

Mia: attending to the mess I caused.

Matt: There's no need for that, I'll call someone else.

Mia: No Matt, it's not a big deal at all, I can do it myself.

Matt: Nah..you aren't gonna do it.

Mia: Yes I am.

Matt: No you aren't.

Mia: Yes I will.

Matt: Shhh...why do you have to be always stubborn with me...I said you wouldn't. I'll go call someone else.

Suddenly Matt went to get someone while I roll my eyes and sigh.

Though Matt isn't that really bad.

Few minutes later two maidens came in and attended to the mess I caused.

Matt: You see...no need stressing yourself..

Mia: yeah but If your mother finds out she's gonna yell at me.

Matt: That's it, she isn't here so?

Mia: yeah you're right.

Matt: can we meet each other at the garden by 3pm? Please?

Mia: Why?

Matt: to get to know each other princess.

Mia: Mia remember.

Matt: Sorry Mia..so please?

Mia: Okay fine..

Shortly afterwards the maidens were done tyding up the place so they left leaving me and Matt.

My mind then took me back to Mark and Ashley, I started to feel hurt again.

What of if he used to speak to her in Private.

He hid Ashley away from me.

Could that possibly mean he had something for her.

I mean if he didn't he would have told me a long time ago.

I need answers from Mark and nothing is gonna stop me from getting the answers.

Matt: What's up? What are you thinking about?

Mia: Nothing.

Matt: Don't lie to me Mia. I should be the last person you tell lies to cause trust me I know when people are telling lies.

Mia: It's nothing Matt...there's nothing for you to worry about.

Matt: I understand it's hard for you to open up to me after all what I've done but please give me a chance, talk to me Mia..I'll always be there when you need me Mia..I wanna share your problems with me. That's what friends are for right?

I sigh.

Mia: my mind Is still on Mark and Ashley...what of if Mark doesn't more love me..you know let just forget about that. It's nothing.

Matt: No..

He pulls my hands gently close to his body.

Matt: I can't forget about it Mia. Besides I understand how you're feeling now Mia..if you're feeling this way why not talk to him to get answers.

Mia: yes and that's exactly what I'm going to do. It's just I can't bear losing Mark..I'm so much in love your brother Matt, I don't know how to tell you how much I'm in love with Mark. I love him to the extent that I could lay down my own life without hesitation and I know he does love me but what if what he had for me has changed...what if your brother doesn't more love me like he used to.

I got so emotional again and then I broke down into tears again...I started sobbing again.

Matt p.o.v

Fuck now she's crying again all because of that asshole!

I wonder what that asshole did to make Mia fall so much in love with him like this.

I was hurt yeah...deeply hurt that I wasn't the one she loved but don't worry I'm certain they wouldn't last forever and I'm gonna make sure of that.

I'm sorry Mia but you belong to me..

I can't always bare seeing you with Mark! I can't Mia!

Only if you were mine.

You have no idea how you make me feel when you talk about him..

I feel like someone is just stabbing me right at my chest.

I feel deeply hurt when you talk about your feelings for Mark...I can't bare seeing you crying over that lunatic who stole you away from me.

Just why didn't he get married to Ashley! Why?!! So I can have you all to myself!!

Life ain't just fair.

So I gently pulled Mia to me while wrapping my arm around her consoling her while she layed her head on my chest crying there.

I felt pleased holding her

At least it was out of her free will!.

She didn't have to scold me now.

I was comforting Mia..enjoying my time I was spending with her until my crush stealer showed up and yelled so loud.

Mark: WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE.

Mark yelled at the top of his voice.

He's voice was so loud, strong and powerful and yeah he's voice sounded annoyed...I could feel that annoyed tune.

Why wouldn't he when he saw the two of us together.

That jealous bastard but you know what I didn't stop holding on to my princess.
