My Annoying Step-Brother

A/N: Thank you for the views, favorites, follows, and reviews! It means so much! :D

Warning: This chapter may be slightly suggestive. But, who cares nowadays? ;D

Disclaimer: I don't own Vocaloid.

Len's POV

I couldn't sleep at all that night. I only thought about how I feel towards Rin, how amazing she looks under the moonlight, and how much time she took out of her life to care for me.

Sure, I've had MANY girlfriends before. And...I don't want to sound cliche, or anything, but Rin's different. She's not always on me, and she actually gives me space. Sure, she may be annoying and loud, but I can be the exact same way.

So, I decided something today!

I'm going to take Rin bowling to thank her for taking care of me. I'm also going to have to apologize for being so stubborn with the cold syrup. I just hate that shit!

So, that next day, I felt extremely better. I didn't feel light-headed, and I didn't feel like my muscles would melt if I move. I guess love really does heal the body.

No matter how cheesy it sounds.

I had to do a double-take because, once I opened my eyes, I saw Rin right beside me. Her eyes were closed tightly, her lips were slightly parted, and her hand was still clutching on the evil cup.

I felt a smile quirk its way on my lips. I still can't believe I've fallen for Rin Kagene, the girl who I thought I'd never get along with. The girl who I always thought as a little boy who can't keep his mouth shut. The girl who I never even glanced at twice and thought, "Wow. She looks pretty today."

And, yet...here I am- a lovesick seventeen year old who loves the girl who I thought as a demon spawn from Hell.

I chuckled to myself. I reach my hand over and gently caress her hair, careful not to wake her up. I wish it could be like this every morning. But, with Rin thinking of me the same way I do, of course!

I tensed when I saw that she moved a little. I quickly retrieved my hand and closed my eyes, pretending to be asleep.

I heard Rin sit up and yawn. I open my eyes slightly, watching her stretch out her arms before rubbing the sleep out of her eyes. When she was done, she looked around with a confused look on her face. "Wait...Why am I in Len's room? Ew," she said, looking down at her hand to find the cup in it. "Ohhh~ that's why."

Then, her eyes landed on me. I swiftly shut my eyes again. She laughed. "Len, stop pretending! I knew that you were awake when I sat up. Don't think I'm stupid."

But, I don't.

Dammit, she caught me. I sigh, sitting up as well. But, I guess its a good thing since I can see her pretty face clearly now. "I thought you wouldn't catch me." I smile at her.

Rin raises an eyebrow. Then, she points at my lips. "What's with the smile?"

I blink. "W-what?"

"Your smile- it's freaking me out."

"My smile…? What's wrong with my smile?" I'm getting kinda offended here!

Rin sighed. "Nevermind! Geez…" Suddenly, she gasps before slapping her forehead.

I flinch. "What's up with you?" I ask with wayyyy too much concern in my voice.

"Dammit! I forgot to call Rei last night because I was messing with you and your stubbornness to take this medicine!" Her beautiful cerulean eyes were now glaring into mine.

"I'm sorry," I apologize. Rin gave me a clueless look. "I shouldn't have been a baby and just take the medicine. It's just...it's really gross, and I don't like it. But, I'll take it now! I'll take it when you tell me, and I won't argue."

Rin stares at me for a long time.

I raised an eyebrow at her. I can't just apologize for something that I obviously did?

"Uhm...Len, are you sure you're okay?" The back of her hand touched my forehead. I laughed softly, taking her wrist and placing it down on her lap.

"Of course I'm okay! Actually, speaking of me feeling okay, I don't feel weak anymore. So, I'm completely healed now!" I exclaim, trying to lighten the air around us.

Rin narrows her eyes at me. I back away. "You're acting awfully nice to me all of a sudden. C'mon, let's go see a doctor." Is she serious?!

Then, she stands up and takes my wrist. She is serious!

"What are you doing?!" I shout, snatching my wrist from her grasp, even though I actually liked the sensation her touch gave me.

Rin looked back. "You're being so weird right now! Something is obviously up with you."

"I can't just apologize anymore?!"

"No! You're being weird!"

"How am I being weird?!"

Rin's face turned a pale pink. Oh, my! Why does she look so cute? "I-I just…" She sighs. "Forget it."

Exactly!

"Anyway...to make it up to you, Rin," I begin, making sure she has her full attention on me, "I'm going to take you somewhere."

Rin's face lit up. "Really?"

I nod. "Really. Now, get dressed. We'll leave in twenty minutes."

"Okay~!" she sang before rushing out of my room.

I sigh, smiling to myself. I leaned against my wall with my arms behind me. Man, could this day get anymore better?

Then, I remembered something.

Rin said that she forgot to call Rei last night. Wait...Did Rei tell her to do it? Why is he even telling her to call him in the first place? He doesn't even like her like that! He has a stupid crush on Lola!

Oh, no.

Does that mean that Rin is falling into his trap?!

Oh, man! I'm going to have to warn Rin, and then have a 'Man-to-Man' talk with Rei. It's obvious he's playing with her emotions- she just can't realize it.

With that noted in my head, I went into my personal bathroom to wash myself up. After I washed my face and brushed my teeth, I slipped in the shower to clean off all the germs from my body. Then, once I came out the shower, I pulled on some blue jeans, a white V-neck shirt, and high-tops. I want to look like I actually care today.

I went downstairs and into the kitchen to make myself a quick breakfast. That contained a granola bar and a glass of milk. Afterwards, I patiently waited for Rin to come downstairs.

My heart did a flip as I think about Rin. Man...I need to get out of this before I become really attached to Rin.

But...I think I already am.

A few moments passed and my patience was decreasing.

That's when I heard footsteps come down the stairs. I crane my head to the body coming down the stairs and I'm instantly in awe.

Rin wore a loose, long-sleeved shirt that covered the short-shorts that she had under it. And, I can clearly see her long, shiny, and outstanding legs. I had to swallow down the spit that was about to come out of my mouth. Geez, I need to keep it together- me and my perverted mind!

Rin had a nervous smile on her face. "Uhhh...Do I look alright?" she wondered, gesturing to that wonderful, leg-revealing outfit.

I nod frantically, my eyes still fixated on her legs. God, I feel like a pervo. "Yup! Amazing, like always." I widened my eyes at my own words. Rin was also shocked. I laugh sheepishly. "I-I meant...amazing, for once! Hehehehe…" Gosh, this is embarrassing.

Rin nodded slowly. "O...kay…"

"Anyway! Let's go, shall we?" I suggest, trying to change the subject as best as I can.

Rin shrugged, walking over to the door. I'm glad I was behind her so I can stare at those-

Okay. I need to stop now!

We both piled in the waiting limo.

The chauffeur asked me, "Where would you like to go, Mr. Kagamine?"

I leaned into his seat so Rin won't hear me. "The bowling alley," I whispered like the creep I am. When I leaned back into my seat, Rin was giving me a weird face. I blinked. "What's wrong?" I gasped. "D-did you hear me?!"

Rin shook her head slowly. "No...but...you just...ah nevermind!" And, she snapped her attention to the window.

I laughed quietly to myself. Man...am I going insane? I fell in love with the girl who has only been staying at the Beach House for a month. A freaking month! And I've already developed feelings for her! Romantic feelings! Loving feelings! Sexual feelings!

I'm having desires for her! I'm thinking of her in a different light! I actually want to kiss her, and hold her, and...and...and make love to her!

Okay...maybe not the last thing, but the others things- YES! I want to do them to her!

Oh my God, that is so (for lack of a better word) WEIRD!

Well, maybe...maybe I should just deal with it. When you fall in love with someone, you can't fall out of it so easily. And, I know if I were to try to "forget about her," I'll only be hurt at the end of it. And, so will Rin.

Then, it's settled…

I love Rin Kagene.

And, I won't deny it for a second.

Rin's POV

Geez...Len has been acting very, VERY strange today! I still think that he's sick and that he has to take the cold syrup. A good night's sleep is obviously not doing him any justice.

But, when I ask him, he's "pretending" that there's nothing up with him!

Did I accidently put something in his food last night? Did I accidently hit his head when I pulled his hair?

This is way too confusing…

Anyway, we arrived at the secret destination a few minutes later. I looked out the window, but Len put his hand on my face, making me face him. I glare at him, slapping his hand away. Hasn't he learned his lesson of never touching my face yet?!

"Don't look yet! It's kind of a surprise," Len said with a grin. He took my hand and dragged me out of the limo.

Once I was faced toward the building, my eyes widened. The bowling alley?!

On the other hand, Len was super nonchalant about it and proud in himself for taking me to the place that I absolutely suck at. "I love bowling! And, since we're basically the same person," he looked at me, "I thought you like bowling, too."

I roll my eyes. "First of all, I'm nothing like you, and I'm not planning on being similar to you any time soon. Second of all, please, do not jump to conclusions. You know nothing about me. I hate bowling, and I'm sucker at it."

Len's eyes glinted hurtfully. I calmed down my attitude, afraid that I somewhat hurt his feelings.

"On the contrary, Rin, I know a lot about you," Len said with a forlorn voice.

I crossed my arms. "Like what?"

"Your mom and dad divorced when you were around five. You have an older brother named Rinto. You love oranges. Your favorite color is yellow, and sometimes a cerulean blue. You love bunnies, but since you want to be seen as 'tough,' you hide that fact. You hung around the two most popular girls in Vocaloid High, Miku and Luka. You used to take singing lessons, and you're extraordinary at it, but you stopped once you entered middle school. You hate annoying people with a passion. And...you hate bowling because you suck at it." He said all of that with such an innocent smile on his face.

Wow.

Just…

Wow.

"Anything you want to say now, Rin?" Len asked, smirking at me.

I shake my head without a word.

Len nodded to himself. "That's what I thought."

"But, you have to remember, I don't like bowling! So, you kinda wasted your time taking me out here. Just sayin'~" I say, shrugging with a hidden smirk of my own.

Len grinned, taking my hand. "And, that's why I'm going to teach you."

I widened my eyes. "W-what?!"

Before I could do anything to stop the maniac, I was dragged into the bowling alley. Oh, my, the place was packed! Groups of friends, couples, and families were all crowded in the big building.

Then, Len tugged me over to some type of counter. The man at the counter had racks and racks of shoes behind him.

The man smiled. "Hello. What shoe size?"

"I'm a ten, and you…?" Len's eyes were fixated on mine.

"Seven. I'm a seven," I answered, swallowing down the anxiety of showing all of these people in here how bad I'm at with bowling.

The man nodded and turned to the racks of shoes behind him.

Len looked at me with excitement in his eyes. "I can't wait to teach you! This is going to be so fun."

I smiled with sarcasm locked to it. "Awesome!" My voice was full of irony.

Len gave me a look like, 'Stop being a buzzkill.'

I shrugged. "I don't want to sound rude, or whatever, but I really don't want to be here. And, if I humiliate myself in front of these dozens of people, it's all on you."

Len's face contorted into something happy and warm. He laughed. It amazes me how fast his expressions can change within a second. "I'll be sure to not let you embarrass yourself, Rin. Trust me."

I sighed. "I'll try."

Len winked at me. Freak.

The man turned back around with the shoes in hand. He handed them to us and, after Len finished paying him, we made our way back to the real action.

I found a seat and settled on it. I took off the boots that had on and slipped on the bowling shoes. I looked up to find Len staring at me with his mouth gaping open. I raised an eyebrow, standing up. "Uhhh...is something wrong?" I ask, walking towards him.

Len's face got red. Like, really red. "O-oh! I was just wondering what's taking you so long! Duh!" He laughed nervously.

God, this kid is really jumping on my nerves today.

"Anyway, I should probably teach you now, right?"

"I suppose," I grumbled, feeling intimidated by watching everyone around me throwing the balls at the alley.

"Hey." Len grabbed my sleeve which made me look at him. "Don't look at them. Look at me."

Without having a comeback, I just shrugged his hand from mine and made my way to where the bowling balls are laid out at.

"Okay, I want to see how you bowl, Rin." Len pointed to the ball that I already had in my hand.

I nodded and, without a word, threw the ball at the alley. It rolled until going into the slots and sliding down, not hitting one pin. I groaned, throwing my head back. "See? I suck at it! Can I go home now and sulk in my room?" I say, ready to walk out of this stupid place.

However, Len took my arm, making me stand at my place. I swallowed the scream down my throat. "Stop. You were doing it all wrong."

I turned around.

"Watch the master." He winked at me with a smirk. He reached over to the balls, took one, and put it in my face. "Put three fingers in these holes." He demonstrated.

Ahhh...I never did that before!

Len turned to the alley. "Take a few steps." He did. "Place your right foot behind your left shin." He did. "And, throw it with grace."

Just like that, the ball rolled and STRIKE! came the sound as the ball hits all of the pins.

Wow! How did he do that!

Len turned around, but his expression surprised me. He didn't even wear a smile! It must be because he has made a strike so many times in the past that it didn't faze him anymore. "There you have it! Now, you try."

I sighed. I walked over to the bowling balls, took one in hand, and placed three fingers in the holes. I looked back at Len who nodded in approval. God, this is so embarrassing!

Like Len said, I took a few steps towards the alley. I placed my right foot behind my left shin. Then, I threw the ball, with grace.

I watched anxiously as the ball was rolling all over the place. But, when the ball struck all of the pins, I immediately yelled out in excitement. "OH MY GOSH, THAT WAS SOOOO GOOD!" I shouted, throwing my arms in the air.

Thank God no one saw me!

Len's grin came back as he hopped over to me and took my hands. "I told you that you could do it! I'm glad you trusted me, for once."

I laughed. "I'll have to trust you more often!"

His face lit up.

I caught what I just said and my smile went away. "Nevermind, ew."

He frowned at me.

I couldn't help the laugh that came out my mouth.

Len's POV

A few hours passed and Rin and I are now at an ice cream parlor. I really did have fun with her today! I guess you could call it an unofficial date.

Hah~, the word "date" makes my insides churn. I love it!

Anyway, once we got our ice cream, we settled at a table. We immediately dug in. But, then I remembered about how I'm supposed to talk to her about the whole Rei thing.

So, I swallowed the ice cream down my throat. "Say, Rin?"

"Yep?"

I made eye contact with her. "So...You and Rei are pretty close, right?"

She nodded with a smile. I narrowed my eyes. "Yeah! We're close! Why?"

I shrugged, taking another spoonful of the ice cream. "Just wondering…"

"Okay…?"

"I have another question!" I exclaim, my eyes shooting up to her.

She nodded. "Shoot."

"What did Rei say to you yesterday?" I wonder, trying to be as "uncaring" as possible.

Rin blinked. "Uhhh...I don't know- I can't really remember. Uhm…I think we just went to the Arcade, and that's it."

"Did he do anything that you can remember clearly?" I urged.

Rin blushed. Nice! I hit her sweet spot! "Umm...he said that I'm cute. A-and...he would always hold my hand. A-and...wait! Why am I talking about such embarrassing stuff like this to you?! I need to get a hold of myself."

I sighed. Rei really is playing with Rin's emotions. I can't believe it. "Rin...I need to tell you something."

"W-what?" Her face was still an adorable red.

"I hate to tell you this about your 'friend,' but...Rei is just playing with your feelings, Rin," I said with concern latched to my voice.

Rin blinked. "Wait...what?"

"I don't know if it's because he finds it pleasurable or he feels bad for you, but either way...he doesn't like you more than a friend," I explained.

Rin stared at her ice cream. "You're lying…"

"I-I'm not lying."

"Yes you are. You're lying!"

"If I was lying, I would've said so by now, Rin."

"Stop lying, Len!"

"Why would I be lying, Rin?"

"You don't have any proof!"

I furrow my eyebrows in frustration. "Any proof?"

Rin grinned at me. "None! At all!"

"Rin...Rei is my damn twin! I have lived with him for a good fifteen years! He has done this with all of his 'girl friends.' He plays and flirts, and when he's done with you, then he throws you away. Can't you see that, Rin? I'm trying to warn you so you don't get hurt in the future. Please…" I take her hand. "Take my words at heart."

Rin stared at me with disbelief. Then, her eyes contorted into what is a mix of rage and hurt. She stood from her seat, walking to the door.

I sighed. "Where are you going, Rin?"

"Home. And, as soon as I do, I'm calling Rei and telling him that you said all of this."

I walked over to Rin who quickly raced out of the parlor. We left our ice cream back at the table, but that didn't seem to matter.

I chased after Rin. I can't let her escape my grasp when I was almost there to keep her.

But, since I used to be on the track team back in primary school, I caught up to Rin pretty easily. I grabbed her wrist and turned her around. That only resulted in me feeling a sharp pain in my left cheek.

But, her words affected me more than her slap:

"Don't come near me ever again. If you do, I will leave that damn Beach House. And never come back."

Right then, I had a complete break-down.

A/N: Hi!

I decided to make the chapter longer, just because I wanted to show how much I care!

Not much to say. Rei's a jerk. Rin's trying to show her love for Rei. Len is trying to warn Rin to stay away from Rei, but she doesn't trust him enough.

Hehehehheh! Drama~

Anyways~ please review for the next chapter! Can we get to 90 reviews, pleaaaase? :D
