Betrayal

Fabian had a crazed look in his eyes. "Are you dating her?" he asked in disbelief.

Gideon scratched the back of his head. "Well, you see..." He trailed off, unsure of where he had been going with it.

"I see what?" Fabian asked dangerously, his hands clenched at his sides as if he was doing his best to not punch his twin brother in the nose.

Gideon had thought it would be nice to go outside for a while. It was so refreshing to breathe in the cool, crisp morning air, but then Fabian had found him and confronted him, demanding to know the truth.

Gideon had been planning to tell Fabian anyways—they weren't just twin brothers; they were best friends, and he hated lying—but Fabian had found out from another source as Gideon did his best to work up the courage to finally be honest.

He took a deep breath. There was no use denying what they both knew was the truth. "Okay, I admit it. I'm dating Alexandria."

Fabian took a step back in surprise, unable to beleive Gideon was actually owning up to the betrayal. "How could you?"

"I like her," Gideon answered simply.

"And my feelings don't mean anything?" Fabian gasped.

"Of course they do, but I like Allie, and she likes me. Why should we pretend otherwise?"

"This means war," Fabian warned, and turned around, ready to march away in a dramatic huff.

"Are you really going to let a girl come between us?"

"It was your decision when you said yes to Alexandria."

Gideon did his best to not lose his temper. "You shouldn't act so high and mighty. If Allie approached you instead of me, you would have said yes, too. You're just bitter that she chose me instead." It was mean, but he also it was the truth.

Fabian glared at him. "Just watch. I'll win Alexandria back. I guarantee it," he promised.

Gideon shook his head. There was no talking to Fabian. Not until he would be ready to listen at least.
