A usual hot summer day, Claus sitting on his computer with the AC turned up 10 degrees. Lucas, either baking in the kitchen or out playing with Ness, at his house or the baseball feilds. Though, he suspected since being outside was grusome that Lucas would naturally just want to stay inside while relaxing in the kitchen.
Claus wanted to talk to his brother, maybe even play some games with him, but he felt as if he pestered Lucas too much. Lucas always enjoyed playing with his brother, even when he lost to his brother in brawl every round.
Looking outside the clear glass window, Claus stretched back, pulling his shoulders back, then went back to holding the mouse and checking the usual websites already knowing nothing would be new. After he checking the websites the room suddenly went silent. Not a single breeze outside, all you could hear was the AC pushing itself to maintain the chilly temperature.
"BEEP. BEEP. BEEP." The oven buzzer rang from the kitchen startling Claus, making him flinch. Then, an idea clicked in his head. Why not check what Lucas has been doing on the computer?
An evil grin smothered his lips, as he typed in Lucases user and password. The blonde told his brother a long time ago what his password was to everything, not suspecting he would even attempt to peek at what he has been doing online.
Enter.~
Claus opened Lucases skype, wondering how he talked to his friends. What kind of conversations did he have? Was he ever mentioned as a good big brother?
The first conversation was with.. Ness.
Second conversation... Ness.
Third conversation... Ness again.
Claus scrolled down the conversation list, only to see every single conversation with Ness.
Surely Lucas had other friends.. He coulden't just keep all his attention to Ness...
Claus clicked on his contacts imagining a large list. But even now, Lucas only had one contact, Ness.
Claus slipped his fingers into his bangs, his palm up to his forehead. He never imagined Lucas having only one friend. He coulden't decide whether its a good thing, or a bad thing. More friends, more trouble? One friend could easily be dealed with though...
The only person Lucas can love is...
"W-what am I thinking?" Claus shook his head. Why should it matter to me? Lucas is allowed to have as many friends as he wants too!
The door suddenly sprang open with Lucas hopping in the bedroom.
"Hey, Claus!" Lucas chirped.
"Oh, ah, e-err.. H-Hey!" Claus flustered quickly exiting out of skype. "W-Whats up?" He chuckled a bit, feigning innocence.
"I finished the strawberry cake, in case you would like to have some!"~ Lucas seemed even happier than usual, and with a basket at his side. Claus was to busy being flustered to actually pay attention to it though.
"Oh, right I heard the oven buzzer go off... Thanks." Claus mumbled, calming down. Hes the one who requested strawberry cake in the first place, anyway.
"Well.. Just to let you know, I wont be home until 6:30 Pm." Lucas smiled, with a slight wave, making his way towards the door.
"Where are you going?" Claus asked, confused. He didn't hear that Lucas had plans today. Maybe with one of his friends... Possibly one other than..
"Ness wanted to hang out and play baseball at the feilds!" Lucas happily said, exited.
"Ness? Him again? I honestly don't see whats so special about him. Plus, its too hot outside! You can't just go to the baseball feild without water!" Claus tried to make his point, stopping Lucas from leaving, but Lucas just smiled even more.
"Don't worry! When its hot outside, that means no one else will be playing baseball! Then its just Ness and I. Heh, I have plenty of snacks and drinks in this too!" Lucas waved the brown basket in the air, carefully. "You don't mind if I give Ness a slice of the strawberry cake I made you, do you?" Lucas smiled, curiously.
Idiot... He...
Claus gritted his teeth and forced a fake smile. "Of course not."
"Ohh, I'm so glad! Thanks Claud! Your the best big brother ever!" Lucas skipped over to his brother and gave him a quick hug, before releasing himself and skipping back over to the door.
"Hah.. Your really exited arent you?" Claus said, still slightly shocked.
"Yes~ Ness and I have been planning this day for a long time! He told me he had a surprise for me at the feild! I've been wondering what it might be!" Lucas giggled.
Claus felt his chest tighten, unable to reply back.
"Hey.. You okay? If you want the entire strawberry cake, you can have it, you know." Lucas tried to comprehend what Claus was thinking.
"Hey Lucas.. Would it be okay if..." Claus gulped once. "I came along?"
Lucas held his hand out. "Yeah! We should hurry, we can't keep Ness waiting!"
Clauses chest lightened up, and the pain faded away. Could this be.. A feeling of...
"Ah, sorry! Lets go!" Claus chuckled.
- (Skip to the arrival at the baseball feild)
At the baseball feilds, Both of them spotted Ness on a nearby bench, staring at his watch with a basket beside him. As always he had his baseball cap on.
"Ness!" Lucas shouted, sprinting to the bench where he was at, unaware of his surroundings or grass below him.
"Hey, Lucas, watch out for-" Ness stood up and sprinted over to Lucas.
The phycic blonde felt some kind of twig below him, causing him to loose his balance.
Right before tumbling to the ground, Ness held onto Lucases hips, holding him up, and he eventually regained balance. Ness let go slowly, with a slight sigh followed with a smile. "Gee, be a bit more careful, you don't want to scrape your knee anymore than you have to."~ Ness purred.
"He woulden't have charged in the first place if you wern't there." Claus said, catching up behind them, his arms behind his head.
Nesses smile dulled. "Oh.. You brought your brother."
"My names Claus, call me by my name, idiot." He placed his hands on his hips.
"Heh, sure."~ Ness chuckled, trying to seem kind and not start anything. "Anyway, Lucas, lets play some baseball, I brought your stick since you left it in my room last time you came over. I don't blame you though, after that night I was totally out of it the next day. That night was so rough."~ Ness grinned, glancing at Claus who clenched his fists together trying to hold back from punching Ness directly in the face.
"Heh, yeah I guess.." Lucas giggled, taking his stick back.
"Lets do it again sometime, I had a whole bunch of fun!" Ness added.
"A-ah, yeah! Lets um.. Play ball." Lucas said, smiling sheepishly hoping Claus woulden't suspect anything.
For about two hours Claus sat back, on the bench as Ness and Lucas tossed the ball to each other, while the other tried to hit it. Ness obviously hit the ball much harder, and sometimes he would even get a home run. Lucas on the other hand was still learning from Ness.
In the summer heat, sweat would drip off of there cheeks and there shirts clung to them.
Even in such devastating heat, they kept playing. Each of them were in there own world, consentrating on hitting the ball, or throwing it.
Claus stared at Lucas, and admired his wet blonde hair, and tired knees looking as if they were to collaps at any moment. Still though, he held his stick in place and swung at the ball like no tomorrow. His sweet carrot skin sparkled in the dim sunlight.
At moments Claus would exchange glances at Ness, who would glance at him from afar. Ness kept his stance, panting and sweat dripping off his chin. He had tanner skin than Lucas, since he played outside more often.
"Tch." Claus went back to staring at Lucas, but no matter how hard he tried, he would always find himself watching Ness again. How he hit the ball.. How he threw it... His shirt clinging to his bare body. Watching both Ness and Lucas play baseball in the summer heat... Aroused Claus.
"Yo, were back." Ness suddenly said, appearing in front of Claus.
"W-what? Oh, your both finally done, it took you long enough." Claus lost track of time thinking about Ness and Lucas, he even slipped his mind so off he was just now noticing the tent in his pants.
"Hey, I'm going to a bathroom around here, you guys just-"
"Their is no bathroom around here, unless you want to walk all the way home. Plus you can just wait here and eat with us can't you? I would hate for you to go just yet, I still have something to discuss with you." Ness said, holding his hands behind his back. Peeking at Clauses face aroused him himself, but he could control it.
Fuck. Claus thought. Just fuck.
"Enjoy watching us, much?" Ness chuckled, which causes Clauses face to turn bright red.
He noticed.
"Ness, Ness! I brought you something special for dessert today!" Lucas perked up, slipping out the slice of strawberry cake. Claus then remembered they didn't have dinner yet, so this must be why Lucas brought snacks. It had gotten noticably dark as well.
"Looks good Lucas, as usual. Hey, why don't you eat before me? I need to talk to Claus in private for a sec. It wont take long at all, I promise. And about the surprise... Next time were alone I will show it to you, kay?" Ness said, grabbing Clauses wrist.
"Ahh.. Sure." Lucas said, unsure of the situation. It was still bearable to see where you were going so it wasn't too dark.
Ness smiled, and dragged Claus along with him behind a large tree, ensuring them complete private talk.
"Err.. So.." Clause muttered. Ness stepped up and held Clauses chin up with his sweaty fingers, his face so close Claus could feel his deep breathing. "The buldge in your pants... Want me to please you?" Ness smirked, seducing Claus.
"Ah!" Claus pushed away. "Idiot.. That's not what you wanted to talk to be about... Get to the real-" Ness placed his finger on Clauses lips.
"I love Lucas." Ness blurted out.
Claus felt his face flush, as he turned away, Nesses finger pushed away. "W-why should I care?"
Ness smirked. "You love him too, you can't hide it from me, I saw you watching him while we played baseball."
"Okay, I do. So what? Whats the point?" Claus asked.
"Pfft-" Ness pinned Claus to the tree, wish his knee between Clauses legs. "Ahh.."~ Claus moaned from the impact. When he reopened his eyes, Ness was staring directly at him, with the usual evil grin he never showed Lucas.
"Cause from today on, were love rivals."
