In Love with My Brother's Best Friend, Part 1

I should have known it was my big brother. That was always a joke with him. We were twins, and he was minutes older than me. He'd been protecting and hovering over me my entire life. Of course he'd call to make sure I was home safe and in one piece. He was a thousand miles away, but it never felt like it.

When he announced that he was getting married, I was surprised. They had only known each other for about a year. What he said next shocked me even more. They were getting married in two weeks, and he wanted me to be in the wedding.

I hadn't been home for more than a moment in over ten years. He'd come to visit me plenty of times, and he'd even brought her with him. No matter what was happening, I'd always found a way out of going home. His wedding was the exception. My brother was getting married, and I needed to be there.

There was only one problem.

His name was Jackson, but I called him Jackie.

He was my brother's best friend and the reason I'd been running for so long.

Could I do it? Could I face him after all those years?

I didn't have a choice. I knew I had to go, but I didn't have to do it alone.

I talked one of my best friends into going with me. His name was Chris. I promised him a weekend of fun on the beach with all expenses paid.

That all changed the moment I saw HIM. I did the only thing I could think of and hoped it wasn't going to blow up in my face.
