FEELINGS - N.S

summary: during a movie night with your best friend, some feelings are revealed, which may alter a relationship in both of your lives.

warnings; pretty sure there's none, it's js a fluff <3

a/n; im somewhat back lmfaoo, im js gonna try to take every day as it comes n yk js live lol. but yeah, here's a nick oneshot cos i've been slacking on him fr.

I help Nick gather all the snacks from the kitchen and bring them upstairs to his room, mindlessly dumping them on his bed. I go back downstairs to pick up the last few treats but I'm stopped by Chris before I have the chance to reach the stairs.

"Jesus, how many fuckin' snacks do y'need for a movie night kid," Chris remarks, staring at the food bundled in my arms.

"Shut up, just because your fat ass wants to eat all of it," I shoot back before sliding past him and heading back upstairs. He mumbles something under his breath but I don't have enough fucks to give about his sour mood.

Walking into Nick's room, I find him already cosied up under an avalanche of blankets with the tv remote in his hand. I smile and eagerly join him under the comforting embrace of the blankets. I open a pack of sour patch kids as I stare at the tv, waiting for him to pick the first movie.

"No way, Nick, we are not watching Coraline again," I complain, tossing a sweet at his face.

"Come onnnn, it's such a good mov- yeah if we hadn't watched it a million times already," I cut him off, knowing that he was about to start his hour long tangent about how amazing the film is.

"Fine, what do you suggest then," he murmurs, passing me the remote. I scroll through the endless catergories on Netflix, landing on a movie I've been wanting to watch forever.

"A romance? Really?" He gives me a slight side eye, before mumbling an agreeance. The movie starts, an up-beat track playing in the background as the characters are being introduced and the scene set.

-

An hour into the movie and the two main characters are in a heated make-out session and the camera makes sure to pick up every detail of it.

"Ugh, I don't need to see down their throats, can we skip?" Nick fake gags, grabbing the remote; I hurriedly snatch it from him before he could skip ahead.

"No way, he's sooo hot, I'd kill to be her right now," I speak, keeping my eyes strictly fixated on the screen. I catch Nick throwing me a disgusted look through my peripheral vision but shrug it off.

A few moments later and the scene is over which gives Nick the chance to speak up, "he's not even hot,"

I whip my head in his direction, jaw dropping to the ground; my ears must be decieving me or I must have heard him wrong. But my doubts are put to rest when he casually repeats his statement.

"How could you even say that?" I say, clutching my heart dramatically. He rolls his eyes before shoving another oreo into his mouth. "I know you have a thing for dilfs with moustaches but c'mon you have to admit this guy is beautiful,"

"Okay, I dont just like dilfs with moustaches, I have other types y'know," he says, speaking to me as if it were common sense. I ask him about his so-called 'wide range of types' as I shovel more disgustingly-sugary food into my mouth, waiting for him to start speaking.

"Well, I don't have specific types, but if you're hot then you're hot," he shrugs. I shake my head, telling him that I won't accept a half-assed answer like that.

"For example, my type is boys who's name begins with Chris and ends in Sturniolo," I joke, instantly breaking into a laughing fit.

"You're not even funny," Nick says, letting a smile creep onto his face. "Fine, my type is my bestfriend's brother," he says, now laughing himself.

My laughs instantly die down and I look at him in revulsion. "Oh my God, don't even say that as a joke, that's actually gross, Nick," I say, sticking my tongue out to really get my point across.

"Well....what if I wasn't joking," he admits, looking away from me.

The room goes quiet, and even the noise projecting from the tv fades out. "What?" I ask, thinking that I misheard him for the second time tonight.

I take the remote control and pause the movie to ensure that when he spoke again, I'd be sure to not mishear anything. There's a span of silence between us, which seemed to last an eternity, almost making my ears ring.

"I know we said we wouldn't fall for eachothers siblings but.....well actually, he made a move on me first so technically you should be mad at him?" He defends, not stating a real reason of why he has feelings for MY BROTHER.

"Are you joking or are you serious?" I ask, still in absolute shock about what he was currently admitting.

"I'm serious; but if it makes you feel better, I rejected him because of our deal, doesn't mean I still don't have feelings for him though," he says, finally forcing himself to look at me. My expression softens when I realise that he really did like him and he rejected him all to keep our promise.

"Nick, I know we made that deal but I can't pick and choose who you have a relationship with. I want to see you happy, even if it means it's with my brother," I roll my eyes playfully, giving him a small smile.

He shifts under the blankets and quickly pulls me into a hug, whispering a soft 'thank you' into my hair; I smile and warmly hug him back.

I can't control who he has feelings for and if it happens to be my brother than I guess I'll just have to deal with it because my bestfriend's happiness means more to me than some silly promise we made years ago.

"But just for the record, Chris is fair game now," I grin, pulling away from the hug. Now it's his turn to roll his eyes dramatically.

We resume the movie but it's playing more as background noise for our gossiping. The rest of our night consists of talking about the feelings they share for eachother, the entire rejection story, and even some silly texts to my brother.

I know I should be disgusted or even a little upset by the idea of my older brother and bestfriend dating but if it makes both of them happy then who am I to stop them?
