Brothers Through It All. ~Cashby & Kellic~

Kellin's POV

I watched as Alan tried on yet another outfit before throwing it aside and huffing.
"Nothing is cute enough."
"How about you wear a sweater?" I said and got up from his bed and went over to his closet. I rummaged around near the back before grabbing a dark green sweater. "Here this will look amazing with black jeans." I said handing him the shirt.

He stared at me nervously, not moving to change into the shirt.
"Kells it's a girls sweater." He said slowly. I nodded my head. "So?"
"Kellin you know I just can't wear something like this!"
"Yes you can Alan! First of all who gives a fuck what people think and second you can't even tell that it's a girls sweater."
"Really?"
"Yes really. Now go put it on."

He walked to the bathroom and a few moments later he came out. The sweater was big on him, causing it to cover his hands and it hang loosely on his frame. He looked great and somehow it made him look cuddly. Is that even a thing?

"There. Now you look like a cute cuddly ginger. Now change pants and let's go. We're late." He nodded and I left the room to grab my shoes and keys. Alan came down the stairs smiling and i noticed he had put on a couple of braided bracelets.
"Do I look okay?" He asked while slipping on his shoes.
"You look great." I said and he smiled before we both went out the door and to my car.

"So you have to be watched tonight mister." I said as we neared the house where the party was being held. Alan just glared at me.
"Listen I was drunk one time. Besides it wasn't even that bad."
"Alan! You were all over the place. It took me, Gabe, and Tony to get you in the car. You're a mess when you're drunk." I laughed.
"Whatever. I won't drink." I have him a look of disbelief. "I'll be with Austin the whole night anyway."
"Yea and I'll make sure he knows that you can get a little hyped up when you drink. I probably shouldn't be taking my 16 year old baby brother to a party anyway."
"Hey I could be out by myself at least you can watch me." He pointed out and I nodded.
"True."

"Kells I'm nervous but excited. Like what if I do something embarrassing?" He asked.
"Ohh something like standing on the table and trying to get everyone to do the Macarena?" Alan blushed and I just laughed.
"I wasn't that bad was I?"
"Yes. Yes you were." I said still laughing.

We finally pulled up to the party and both headed inside. There weren't that many people here, yet. We walked around until we found our group of friends. Alan immediately hugged Austin and stood by him. I squeezed myself in beside of Vic.
"Okay first order of business. Austin." I said getting Austin's attention. "Alan will probably be with you most if the night. Try not to let him drink so much, however if he does DO NOT loose him."

"Seriously dude don't. I lost him and when I did find him he was sliding down a stair rail. He's only been drunk once but he's a handful." Gabe chimed in and Alan turned red once again.
"No worries. I'll keep the ginger princess safe." Austin said slinging an arm around Alan's shoulder. "I'm not a huge drinker anyways so he's in good hands."
"Now that that's settled let's go enjoy ourselves gentlemen!" I said and handed everyone a beer.

Austin's POV

I lost him. I actually lost him. I searched upstairs again and still couldn't find Alan. He had quite a bit to drink and he was like a high chihuahua. One minute he was there by me on the couch next he was completely gone.

The party was in full swing now. Crowded with people and loud music playing. I moved through the makeshift dance floor. Trying my best to avoid contact with the sweaty bodies. I saw Kellin in the kitchen and completely dodged him. If he knew I lost Alan he would kill me.

I made my way outside looking frantically. Finally I saw him near the pool. Oh no. I raced forward and was immediate relaxed when I saw he was just swishing his bare feet back and forth in the water. Still it was dangerous. I sat down beside of him and pulled him close.
"Austin!" He shouted and flung his arms around me. "I-I missssssed you." He slurred then giggled.
"Don't run off like that doll."
"Sorry, but you don't undersstand Austin! My feet had a mission." He said determined and I couldn't help but laugh at him. He was adorable.

"Austie," He whispered, "let's go dance!" He got up to pull me it I pulled him back easily so I could slip his shoes back in his feet. Then I let Alan pull me through the crowd of people until we were right in the middle of the 'dance' floor. He giggled before standing still.
"I thought you wanted to dance?"
"I DO! But come closer And I'll tell you a secret." I leant down towards the shorter boy and he whispered in my ear. "I can't dance." I pulled back and smiled at him.
"Well I've heard otherwise, but it's not that hard." I put my hands on his hips and pulled him closer to me. I moved him and myself in time to the shitty beat that played throughout the house.

He giggled before turning around and getting bold. He started grinding on me and I still had him by the hips. I leant down and kissed down his neck and then back up to his cheek. This caused him to turn around and kiss me sloppily on the lips. He abruptly pulled back and I looked at him confused.

"Oh my god. I just kissed Austin." He said to himself causing me to chuckle.
"Not the first time doll face." His eyes widened.
"Really?"
"Yea really." A huge grin broke out on him face and he jumped up and down like a small child.
"Am I a good kisser?" He asked and I nodded.
"Definitely."
"YAY! Point for Alan!" He cheered. I laughed at him and he thought a minute before stating that he was going to go get another drink. Before I could say anything he was rushing away. I sighed and raced after him.

I caught him in the kitchen pouring random bottles into a cup. I grabbed the cup from him and he pouted.
"Auuuuuuuustin!" He slurred.
"No more for you doll." I said and held the cup over my head.
"No fair!" He stomped his foot like a five year old, which caused me to laugh. "You're a giant and I'm me." I sat the cup on top of the fridge and wrapped my arms around him.  We swayed back and forth a few moments.

"Can we leave? I'm tired." He mumbled into my neck.
"Sure thing lets go find Kellin first."
"Carry me."
"Sure thing." I picked him up easily and he latched himself onto me.  I walked through the crowd of people carefully maneuvering around them so I wouldn't disturb Alan who seemed to be asleep.

After checking downstairs I decided to go check the upstairs area. That kinda proved to be a problem since I was carrying Alan. Slowly but surely I made it up the stairs. I checked rooms and didn't have any luck. The only possible place left would be the bathroom or outside. I turned the knob, probably not the best move on my part, and opened the bathroom door.

"Kellin are you..." My words stopped as I watched Vic pull quickly away from Kellin. He was against the wall and although Vic wasn't kissing him any more he was still very close. "Ummm Alan wanted to go." Was all I said and Kellin nodded.
"I'll meet you at the car." He said and I just nodded like he had earlier and left them both to sort out theirselves.

As I was going down the stairs I passed Jaime.
"Hey Austin have you seen Kellin or Vic?"
"Ummm no. Check outside though. They weren't upstairs."
"Thanks man." He said before racing back down the stairs in the other direction. I shook my head and carried Alan to Kellin's car. I laid him in the backseat and sat down so he could rest his head on my lap. As I saw Kellin coming out of the house I couldn't help but think he had just gotten himself into a very sticky situation.
