Ready Set Go

Marie's P.O.V.

Weeks passed without any form of contact between the twins. This worried Gustav, Georg and me; but finally, one night, they emerged from Bill's room, seemingly over their fight.

"Bill, baby, I need to go buy clothes to take with me while I'm on tour with you guys."

"I'll take her. I need some too."

"Alright. Is now okay?"

Tom nodded. "Sure."

I smiled and pecked my boyfriend on the lips. "I love you."

"Ich liebe dich auch."

I got into the passenger seat of the car, and Tom pulled away from the curb. The ride was filled with conversation and music. Before we got even halfway to the mall in the next city over, Tom pulled over onto the side of the road, parked on a side patch of dirt obscured by trees, and faced me.

"Why are we stopping?"

Tom's P.O.V.

I just did it. I didn't think about the fact that she was my brother's girlfriend, or what I had just told my twin only a month before. I just did it. I kissed her. She was shocked, but I felt her lips moving beneath mine. After a few minutes, I deepened the kiss, and she allowed it. I slid my hand up her t-shirt, ignoring the warning bells going off in my head; she moaned when I moved my lips to her neck. I felt her cool hands jerking down my baggy jeans, and I quickly shifted to her side of the vehicle, all the while kicking off my pants and shoes. Her skirt was easier to maneuver around.: I just pulled it up around her abdomen. She granted me access by shedding her own underwear and my boxers. I moved to be between her legs, which she wrapped tightly around me. I knew then that she'd had no experience; she was just going with her instincts. I reached into my wallet and unwrapped the emergency condom usually used for when I had one-night-stands with fans. She watched as I rolled it on, and I smiled sweetly at her before capturing her lips in a kiss. She stifled a gasp as I pushed into her gently.

Marie's P.O.V.

"Gustav? Can I talk to you?"

"Yeah." He turned from his laptop. "Oh, mein gott. What happened?"

"That's what I need to talk to you about."

It had been almost a month since that road-side incident, and guilt was eating at my insides. Every day, I'd look into Bill's eyes and be forced to hide my tears. At night, I'd count my breaths until he fell asleep, and then I would cry.

I told Gustav exactly what had happened in the car that day. Instead of the comforting quiet, I was met with icy silence.

"Gustav?"

"You're such a whore."

"Wh-what?"

"Slut. You had sex with Tom while dating Bill. You cheated on your boyfriend. And let me guess. You're not going to tell him, are you?"

"I don't want to hurt him."

"Either way, he's going to get hurt."

"I-I-I can't tell him."

"Then I will."

Gustav's P.O.V.--shock!

I knocked on Bill's door and waited for a response. He answered a few moments later, and his grin fell.

"Diese sieht nicht nur wie eine freundliche Besuch."

"That's because it's not."

"Then what's going on?"

Since Tom had gone to his friend's house, and Marie was with Georg and his girlfriend at the mall, I deemed it safe to tell Bill. So I did. His eyes closed tightly to hide the tears, and I bit my lip, knowing I'd hurt him by telling him the truth. He dragged in a shaky breath and looked out his bedroom window.

"How long have you known?"

"Since last night."

"How long ago did it happen?"

"Marie didn't tell me."

"Hey, I'm home."

Bill snapped to his feet quicker than I'd ever seen him move, and slammed open the bedroom door. I reached the front door in time to see Bill pushing Tom backward. The older twin stumbled slightly before regaining his footing.

"What's going on?"

"Why don't you tell me? You're the one who fucked my girlfriend! You're the one who lied to me!"

"I didn't lie to you, Bill."

"But you had sex with my girlfriend? You don't deny it?"

"How can I deny it? You wouldn't believe me anyway."

Suddenly, Marie entered the house and stopped in the hallway. "What the hell is happening?"
