A STEPBROTHER'S DESIRE chapter 1 A LOVELY DAY

9:30 am. The door slowly creeks open, he opens the curtains while the sunlight's rays hits Caleb's face who is sleeping soundly. Max then suddenly hopped on the bed with Caleb caressing his hair trying to wake him up.

Max Trenor [ML]

Hey.. Caleb, wake up! It's almost noon and you haven't eaten breakfast yet!!!

Caleb groans sleepily at his brother's voice, making him turn around facing the pillows.

Caleb Trenor [MC]

Mhmm... Later, let me sleep.. I'm tired 😴 it's Sunday morning anyway

Caleb replied sleepily, turning around to his left side, as his shirt lifts up showing some of his pale skin

Max can't help but stare at his milky pale skin, shocked by the sudden thought he shakes his head thinking ;

Max Trenor [ML]

*What the hell am I thinking? Am I crazy? it's so early in the morning and I'm THIS TURNED ON?*

Max thought. He brushed off his thoughts for a moment yet his face is flushed red

Max Trenor [ML]

Nah, come on, get up. Either you wake up or I'm gonna tickle you [he cheekily said while smirking]

Caleb Trenor [MC]

No! I don't wanna.. [Caleb said in a sleepy tone]

With that response, Max slipped his hands inside Caleb's shirt and started to tickle him making Caleb jump

Caleb Trenor [MC]

WAAHH!!! b-big bro, stoppppp!!... AHAHAHAH [he says between in his laughs]

Max Trenor [ML]

[laughing] no I'm not gonna stop unless you get up!! HAHAHA

Caleb Trenor [MC]

P-please s-stopp!! [laughing] n-no moreeeee! HAHAHAHAH

he accidentally kicked Max at the stomach due to how ticklish it was

Max winced in pain

Max Trenor [ML]

Ouch—!

Caleb stopped laughing as soon as he heard his brother's voice

Caleb Trenor [MC]

Hey? You okay?.. I didn't mean it!!! You started it first! [ he says in a goofy tone while he pointed at his brother]

Max Trenor [ML]

Yeah, yeah.. I know that, still it hurts.. *smiling even though he's just pretending*

Caleb Trenor [MC]

Did it really hurt that much?.. *he says in a concerned tone* I didn't even kick you that hard though *he looked at Max suspiciously*

Max Trenor [ML]

Oh, yes you did!! Look *lifting up his shirt, showing the place where Caleb hits him*

Caleb Trenor [MC]

eeekkk!... Hey!! stop that *he grabbed his shirt lowering it down* DON'T GO SHOWING OFF YOUR BODY LIKE THAT, I know you're masculine and I'm skinny! arghh—! *he says in an annoyed and somewhat embarrassed tone, while his face is flushed red*

taken aback by Caleb's response, Max can't help but burst out laughing because that is not what he intended to do

Max Trenor [ML]

Whaaaaaattt?? HAHAHAHAHAHAH so you're trying to say you like my abs? mhmm??? [saying in a teasing tone] *he smirks* nah, you're perfect. Your body suits your face anyway.

he says, while patting Caleb's hair who's making a pouty face

Caleb Trenor [MC]

Hmph!.. You wouldn't understand, but oh well, I'm a beta and I guess that's normal *he says as he lies down at his bed again*

Max Trenor [ML]

HEYYY! I said no more sleeping. *as ye yanked Caleb's arms up* Come outside, I made breakfast, fried rice, your favorite. Mom and dad were out on a date, so we had the whole day and house for ourselves.

even though he's still sleepy, he stands up anyway, he knows just how pushy his brother can be

Caleb Trenor [MC]

Oh? They were? That's good, they don't spend more time together nowadays, they're getting busy in business, so guess today's their day mhm? *he said proudly* AH??? FRIED RICEEE!!??? YAAYYY *he exclaimed excitingly*

He suddenly got up and hugged his brother

Caleb Trenor [MC]

Thanks bro! It's been ages since I've tasted your cooking. You're the best brother everrr!! Waahhh!

Max Trenor [ML]

*smiles as he sees Caleb's face that's brimming with joy* yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm the best brother in the world, I know.

they burst out laughing while coming down to the kitchen counter

Caleb Trenor [MC]

So full of yourself eh? HAHA *laughs*
