My C String is Out of Tune

   "Teo, wake up." My adopted mom called me awake but I didn't want to get up. "Teo, up. Now." Her voice was colder now yet still somehow loving in a way.

   Either way, it kind of scared me and I sat up with the covers still over my lower torso, thankfully as I remembered that I only sleep in my boxers if that. Luckily I was at least somewhat clothed with my underwear (A/N: My Happy Underwear) on but still, my face went red as I was still half naked in front of my adopted mom.

"Okay." I said in a tired voice.

She walked away and didn't close the door so as fast as physically possible, i sprinted to close the door. I walked to the closet in my room and took out a white shirt, a light grey Nike hoodie, and black sweatpants to wear. I pulled my clothes on and checked the time on my phone. 7:34 am. Alright, not too bad.

   I left my room to go brush my teeth in the bathroom that I share with Andy. That's weird. Where is Andy? He should be up right now. Whatever. He isn't my problem. I brushed my teeth and washed my face before leaving the bathroom and hearing Andy snoring in his room, still asleep. I contemplated waking him up and decided, nah until I got a text on my phone from my adopted mom.

Nice lady: Teo, I already left for work and I forgot to wake Andy up. Wake him up and make sure you both eat breakfast before you leave.

Teo:
Okay.

   Alright. Looks like he is gonna be my problem. I walked into his room and shook him awake. Luckily, he is an easy riser unlike me. I checked my phone again and it was already 8.

   I left his room and went downstairs to make something for breakfast. But what? There's nothing really in the fridge to actually make so I just ate cereal and waited for Andy to come down too.

   "Do we have food?" Andy asked. He was clearly still sleepy but awake enough to get him through the day.

   "Not really. We have cereal." I responded and I went on my phone.

   "Okay." Andy got a bowl and poured milk and then Lucky Charms into it. I watched in disgust. WHO POURS THE MILK BEFORE CEREAL??? The spawn of Satan, that's who. So it's confirmed, my new little brother is a demon.

   A few minutes of silence passed until Andy spoke up. "Teo, can I ask you something?"

   "Sure."

   "Are you gay?"

   I looked up from my phone and looked at him. "Why do you need this information?"

   "Just wondering. So are you?"

   "Uhm. No."

   "Are you sure?" Andy persisted.

   "I'm not gay, Andy." I got re absorbed into my phone and didn't realize Andy come up behind me and stare at my phone.

   "Then why is your phone wallpaper a picture of Park Jimin with his shirt off?" He pointed at my screen and my face reddened.

   "Uh.... Because reasons." What why didn't I just say it's a dare or something?

   "You're gay, Teo."

   "Shut up and finish eating, you tiny demon. It's almost time to go."

   "Whatever." Andy day back down and continued eating as I went back to my phone.

   Also, I, Teo Duran, am not gay. I think.
