Another bright sunny day at the palace, the birds were singing, the grass was a deep green and the sky was clear as could be.
The happy newlyweds patiently waited at the front entrance of the palace, they had been standing there for over ten minutes when Mia popped up beside them, "Who are you waiting for again?"
Joseph smiled, "My twin brother, he's coming to meet my new wife and granddaughter."
"Oh right I forgot. It's hard being queen sometimes, there's just so many things going on inside my head. I have to remember how to do this and that and I have to call this person, have lunch with that person while at the same time, plan my own wedding."
"I'd be more than happy to take over your wedding plans," Clarisse offered.
"Thanks grandma, but I want to do it, besides I -"
A silver sports-car pulled up at the gates and was let in, Joseph cheered, "He's here!"
A tall attractive man stepped out of the car and looked up at the amazing structure of the palace. He then turned his attention to the party waiting on the steps, "Brother Joe!"
"Brother Dave!"
The two brothers ran up to each other and hugged for what seemed like an hour, "How are you? This must be the wife," he stared smiling lustfully at Clarisse.
She faked a smile and allowed him to kiss her hand.
"Beautiful wife, simply delicious."
Joseph discreetly punched his brother in the arm, he had a habit of cracking on to his girlfriends in the past and they usually let him.
"And granddaughter Amelia, I'm David," he kissed her hand and gave her the same look he'd given her grandmother, "And you are another beautiful lady."
Joseph grabbed his arm and shoved him into the palace, the two ladies followed, "Joey, what did I do? I was just being friendly."
"You know exactly what you were doing. Don't even think about touching my wife or Mia."
Joseph had his eye on his twin all through lunch, worried he might pull the "oops I dropped my fork" technique he had applied to every one of Joseph's previous girlfriends. But he behaved himself and lunch went fine. They ate, they laughed, they had a good time.
In the evening however, Joseph went for a shower and when he came back, he found his wife in bed with none other than his brother Dave, "How could you? Both of you? Have you any idea how much this hurts me?"
"Joseph!" Clarisse started, "I didn't know you were in the shower! I feel terrible."
"So you should. Not only did you sleep with another man, but my brother of all people."
"Well you are twins."
Joseph shook his head and left the room in his bathrobe. Dave covered himself with a sheet and chased after him, "Joseph wait."
Joseph kept walking until his brother grabbed his arm and pushed him against the wall, "Joseph listen to me, I'm sorry."
"Sorry? This is the umpteenth time you've done this to me!"
"Well women can't help themselves - we are attractive men."
Joseph pushed him away, then stormed down to the palace bar and ordered a large brandy.
An hour had passed when he was joined by his wife, "Are you alright."
He lifted his head and looked at her, "How could you?"
"I didn't know it was him, you two are twins."
"That's the worst part about it."
"Why?"
Joseph swallowed his pain and looked his wife directly in the eye, "Because we're not even identical!"
Thanks for reading this short fic I thought up an hour ago. Please review.
