DMITRI POV

That bastard stood there in front of me and sneered in his usual irritating way. I was already late for school and that pain in the neck of…which subject did I have during the first period? Damn, forgot, better check my schedule. Anyhow, he stood there and blocked my way and I had no time to waste with his humorless jokes and dad already warned him. Mum wasn’t here, but was still in need to control and keep it quiet.

Anatoly stretched an arm towards the other side of the doorframe and squared his shoulders in the intention to intimidate me. You kidding me, bastard?

“Move.” I just barked, since I didn’t plan to let him ruin my good mood.

Yeah man, today I was in a good mood, well, more than usual.

“Why should I move? So you can diligently run to school and pretend to be a good student? I know you suck big time, because you’re a damn moron, bro.” I shrugged; this wasn’t going to work with me because it wasn’t big news what he said, sure wasn’t going to win any Nobel Prize for my brain.

“Whatever, just move or I’ll make you.” Anatoly wasn’t as bulky as I was and he knew damn well a couple of punches were nothing for me.

“You know what, didn’t think you’d be one as well, that’s quite a surprise.” He now crossed his arms and smirked like an idiot.

Man, what the hell he wanted from me this morning? He never was this chatty and all suddenly he decided to annoy me? He should have picked another damn day, when I wasn’t running late; I mean, another note and the coach will have my head for breakfast. And what did he just say? To be one of what? Damn if I understood him; argh…the connection we used to have was now gone to waste. It was like being two similar looking strangers, nothing more.

“Spit it out and let’s get over with that, what do you want from me this morning?” Ok, right now, he was beginning to succeed in slightly annoy me.

“Always the dumb, ha, brother?” I rolled my eyes and walked ahead, placing a hand on his shoulder to make him move his ass. This was simply idiotic. He reacted and shoved away my arm. “Not so fast. So, did Sasha infect you, too? I heard he got himself a boyfriend, what a revolting joke. The mighty Sasha turned into a fag and has a bit..”

I stopped him immediately by seizing his collar shirt. One thing was spitting crap on me, but one thing was doing on my friends. That was crossing the line.

“Shut up, bastard. Don’t you dare say another word about Sasha and Travis.” I warned him and tightened the grip.

“Or what? Will you beat me like you did for that kid? Jasper, isn’t that his name? You know, I couldn’t remember him at first, but I have been thinking hard where I saw those scared puppy eyes and I remembered.” He laughed in a mocking and disturbing way, and then grimaced as if thinking about something wrong and I saw red.

I slammed him against the door frame with all the damn force I had in me and he gasped for air. If he dared to only think about going after Jasper, I’ll have his sick head on a plate, not caring he was my damn brother. I still remembered Jas’s terrified and shaken look when he was facing Anatoly and I wished to beat the crap out of me for putting him in that situation. And sure now I wasn’t going to take this bastard’s shit.

“Stay away from Jasper, you hear me? I don’t care what dad or mum might say, I’ll just send you six feet under and couldn’t care less you’re my own brother.” I roared and slammed him back again, hearing the thud of his body crashing against the doorframe. He cursed and grabbed my wrists, trying to free himself from me, but it wasn’t going to happen. “You hear me?”

“So you just turned into a fag, too? You’re such a loser... and for that piece of worthless crap. You know? When I beat him, he cried and pleaded to stop, crawling like a wh..”

My punch savagely connected to his jaw and with the other hand grabbing his collar shirt, I slammed him on the floor. He cursed more and I punched him a second time. Those words had me done and gone mad; I couldn’t simply stay there and ignore them as nothing, looking at his face laughing for what he did to Jasper.

How was now being beaten? Are you enjoying it that much, bastard?

Anatoly tried to struggle, but it was no use, I was too enraged to let him go and forced him down blocking in on the floor with my forearm.

“You enjoying this? You enjoying now being beaten?” I growled while my fist clenched and went to hit a third time.

Someone stopped me and grabbed my arm trying to pull me away. When I turned to see who the hell just butted into my business, I saw dad looking almost green and livid for the anger. I froze at once, knowing very well that look of mixed restrained fury, disappointment and temper about to snap.

“Dmitri, Anatoly. Get up at once.” He ordered hissing.

My brother turned into a piece of ice as well and pushing me away, he stood up and tried to challenge our dad with a glare, but it wasn’t going to work right now and he finally understood, because he dropped it elsewhere.

“What is the matter with you two? What just happened? I walked in here and saw you, Dmitri, hitting your brother like a foolish punk.” Dad pierced me with his words and glance, and then turned to Anatoly. “And you, what do you smile about? I know well you must have said something to provoke him and he just did not have enough common sense to ignore it. Speak, sons. What was that about?”

We both stood in silence, my anger now cooling down leaving me feel like a complete idiot. I just sank down like this bastard here and let him provoke me. But when he mentioned Jasper and talked crap about him, I couldn’t ignore it and even knowing it was just bulls, I knew he had beat Jasper, that wasn’t damn crap. That did the trick, that made me react and now dad looked at me disappointed and sad for how his other son resolved a matter with fists. I broke the silence and apologized.

“Sorry dad.” I said looking straight in his eyes.

“Ha, crawling like a damn coward. You’re disgusting.” That was Anatoly and this time it was my dad seizing his shirt, which meant he had reached and passed his level. He never lifted a finger on us; he had enough authority and discipline in his voice and attitudes, so now he must have been over the limit.

“Do not speak if not to tell me what happened here and do not use such language with our family. Dima had the sense to apologize for your behavior.” My brother took a step back, because deep down he was intimidated by our dad, even if he tried to prove different.

More silence from us and more livid disappointment from him.

“Speak now.” He ordered.

“He punched me simply because I called his little and pathetic friend a bitch.” My brother tried to sneer, but that was something overly stupid to do.

“Which friend?” He enquired, his voice going lower and colder. It was pointless to shut up and don’t utter a word, this would just make him more upset and solve nothing.

“Anatoly and his moronic gang beat Jasper and his friends two years ago, more or less, but the bastard forgot about him and today just remembered and I..” Dad silenced me with a glare that could kill an immortal.

“Is this the truth? You sank to the point of bullying and beating defenseless kids in the streets? That was the reason Jasper Monday evening paled down and grew tense when he saw you?” Now his voice was on a dangerous level of growling. It was something he couldn’t forget and something that hunt him about Anatoly and hearing he did it to someone like Jasper, who clearly looked half of his size, who clearly looked calm, shy and not a damn punk, well, that made him snap.

“Oleg.” He called his personal assistance that magically appeared behind him and looked at us with granitic expression. It was always impossible to guess what was going on in his mind, if his mind was even human. “Make sure Anatoly goes to school and will spend the entire day in here, without contacting anyone. This is not over, but right now you two have school and I have an important meeting.”

“Yiest.” Oleg answered and seized my brother’s sleeve, dragging him away. The bastard didn’t even dare to say a word, since he was damn scared of that dude and hey, who wouldn’t be?

Dad turned to me and took a deep breath before speaking, probably trying to regain his usual composure and calm. He placed a hand on my shoulder and damn that was quite a bone-crushing grip meaning to not disappoint him again.

“Dima, I do understand your reason and I shall see in the matter personally. Why didn’t you tell me so before? Punching your brother is not the solution and it is something I cannot overlook.”

“I found out just recently and didn’t want to bring more problems, especially to mum.” He sighed at my words and shook his head.

“I cannot understand why Tolya changed so much. Why he did that? Did we fail as parents?” All of his anger was gone and on his face was left only a tired expression. It was difficult to see dad so down and drained. I wanted to hug him, but he wasn’t the type, so I just patted his shoulder.

“Dad, you and mum didn’t fail as parents. You’re the best we can ask for. I don’t know what’s going on with that idiot and don’t know why he changed so much, I can’t understand him and no matter how hard I try to think over it, nothing comes out. At first I tried to talk to him, but he just shoved me away and started to act like a lunatic.” I shook my head at the memory of those past days, days of many years ago.

Anatoly began to act as if hated me and then our parents and then our friends. He began to insult River for being gay and then Derek for being black; he didn’t insult directly Sasha, but his family and his friends and that made him lose it.

What the hell happened to him? Was he really just like an evil twin with evil genes? I was starting to think that was the answer.

The teacher gave me a useless speech about being late and the fact I didn’t even listen to it and that I rolled my eyes almost got me detention after school. Good thing Hayden and River spoke for me and pulled out a good excuse. I should learn to think faster and find smartass excuses, but I couldn’t, too much work for me.

My Jedi skills still haven’t reached that level. Too bad.

I was still annoyed for what happened before and still thinking about what dad said, about doubting his being a good father. Man, he was the best father out there, never stressing me over grades and crap like that, never asking moronic questions about girls, being proud of me as hockey player, being there when I needed him. He didn’t have to doubt himself for crying out loud. A loud sighed left my mouth and River peeked at me with a questioning face, then probably realized what the matter was and offered me a genuine smile. I grinned back, but something was missing.

More than something, someone was missing.

Right, I wanted to see Jasper, because I knew he would make me feel better instantly, like he did the other day. That felt so good and … right. Wow. Wait a moment here. Seriously, what the hell was wrong with my head and body these past days? First I melted under his hands when he stroked my hair and then I almost got hard for brushing his ear, but man, that felt so good.

What was going on? I couldn’t like a guy, I mean, no, that wasn’t the point here. I mean, me liking a guy? No, out of question. It was only because I was stressed and irritated and Jasper calmed me down; he always did it the rare times something would annoy me. It was because we were close and good friends, well, more than good friends. That was the reason, right? It had to be, I mean, man I couldn’t like a guy, even if cute and sweet and damn hot as Jas.

Wow…wait another moment.

Did I just say hot referred to a dude? Ok, not a normal dude, I knew it, still… Ok, lets try to think over it for a moment. Argh, my brain was already fuming and going out of order. Alright man, concentrate. So, it’s the same with Sasha, River and the others, isn’t it? I ran my hands on my hair and grabbed them, slamming my head on the desk. Good thing the teacher was writing something on the blackboard and didn’t notice and even if, I sure wouldn’t give a damn about it.

My head hit the desk a second time, forcing out an answer. Was it the same or not? Damn if I knew. Right, who was I kidding? I knew too well it wasn’t the same; c’mon, I wasn’t that stupid and slow, lazy ok, but not completely dumb even if I was blonde. But this wasn’t normal and not possible, because I have liked girls since forever and this must be only some strange phase or some strange force coming from those two horn dogs and from River. But hey, Jasper did look damn sexy that Saturday we all went out dancing to celebrate Travis’ recovering.

Man…no, that couldn’t be and what would he do if he’ll ever find out what I think of him? He’ll freak out, because he was shy and thought of me as a best friend. What am I even thinking? There is nothing to find out. It’s just a stupid phase that I should blame it to Sasha and the way he always acted with Travis.

Yes, that’s it.

And let’s not forget I haven’t dated a girl since…man, since December. This wasn’t normal at all, not for me. Problem solved, I simply needed to go out with a girl, have some good time, feel again a chick’s touch and softness and everything was going to be fine again. Right man. I fished out my phone and searched through the numbers, but couldn’t find the right one, given I didn’t remember actually who was who and which of them I already dated. Ok, I’ll ask Derek later.

Lunch came soon and I was grateful and so was my stomach, grumbling angry and craving for food. Sasha and Travis were in each other’s arms, obviously, and my best friend had pressed his man against a wall and looked at him as if about to jump his bones. Argh, I was going to beat the crap out of him today at practice for confusing me like this. Right, well, I’ll try to, because no one was real match for our beasty captain. Someone tapped my side and when I turned my eyes met a pair of well-known and sweet chocolate eyes, smiling and beaming.

“Hi Dima, how are you? Haven’t seen you this morning.” Jasper asked in his usual calm and cute way, blushing then when seeing something in front of him.

I turned to the same direction and Travis and Sasha were sucking faces; I shifted back to Jas and saw him smiling, his blush actually gone. Bet he was happy for his friend.

“Boy, they look so good together…they’re perfect, it’s as if you can taste their love and attraction.” He said quietly, more to himself than to me; he looked back and widened his eyes and stuttered few words in confusion. “Uhm, I mean..they..”

“Know what you mean, they are a hell of a couple.” I grinned and winked and he relaxed down.

Jasper went to open his mouth, but something else caught his attention and took a couple of steps away from me. He smiled wide and waved to someone and when that someone showed his face, I groaned and rolled my eyes. Not again Walker Texas Ranger, man.

“Hey hottie, looking even yummier that this morning I dare say.” Didn’t know a normal way to greet people? Seriously. He turned to River and Derek and they both greeted him warmly. Backstabbers, they liked the Kevin guy, same was for Hayden and Travis. Only Sasha couldn’t give a damn about him. He would care only if he was going to act funny towards Travis. “I heard you guys have a game tomorrow.”

“Yes, are you coming to watch it with Jasper?” River shot me an amused look and smirked.

Someone else tapped my side and turned to see who that was, given Jasper was now there talking to Cowboy Dallas and Travis, who had joined the conversation. A girl with wavy dark hair, green eyes and a flirting smile was looking up at me, biting her lower lip clearly wanting to attract my attention…and she somehow managed it. Somehow.

“Dmitri sweetie, I was wondering if you would like to do something tonight with me? Maybe we could go to the cinema and then…” She twirled a strand of hair around one finger, gazing me from behind her lashes and resting the other hand on my arm. She sure had all the curves in the right places, but couldn’t remember her name, although I knew I had already seen her around.

“Yeah, sure. Sounds good to me.” I turned my face hearing Derek and Hayden chuckling, probably guessing my not knowing the name.

I grinned at them as to say bingo-got-a-date and then grinned at Jasper as well who stopped talking to his classmate and stared at me sort of pale. Err...what was wrong? What happened? I turned back to see whether some dofus might be around, but nobody was there. Kevin smirked at me and winked an eyebrow and placing his arm around Jas’s shoulders, dragged him away. I rolled my eyes annoyed and went to move, but the chick here talked to me again and had to find a way to remember her name without gaining a slap. Why things had to be so complicated over a damn name?

ALEKSANDR POV

I heard Travis snorting and muttering something along with “moronic idiot” and followed the direction of his gaze, meeting Dima talking to a girl. Seriously, he was going to waste time with her, as usual, and then would come to us and complain what a pain in the neck was to date “chicks”, but that anyway he didn’t care because he wasn’t going to get serious. I almost chuckled at that, because my best buddy could be quite a hopeless case sometimes.

No need to question my love on his snorting, I knew it had to do with the kid, Jasper. My eyes shifted to him and saw the way he stared at Dima while talking to that girl. It honestly made me almost feel bad, which was quite a lot knowing me. Jasper’s smile disappeared at once from his face and his shoulders slumped down; he didn’t obviously realize that, it was an instinctive reaction, but lately I grew more observant of people around that I cared for and that couldn’t be missed. He liked my friend and I thought they had some special bond together, which went over friendship; that was clear to all of us but them.

If River and Derek called me dense at the beginning of everything with Travis, well, how were they going to call Dima now?

Well, he wasn’t acting as I did, but he still had strange attitudes and was clearly jealous of Jasper’s new class mate, even if he hadn’t realized that himself. There was something off with Dima when around Jasper, but in a good way, pulling out new positive sides of him.

The new guy, which had the guts to try calling MY love “Trav”, followed the entire scene and then dragged away Jas. Kevin, that was his name, clearly was interested in the kid and picked the right occasion to try something, even if it looked to me as well a way to
