Chapter 9
(I 💙 Comments 😁)
The next morning, Dewey was woken up by a knock on his door. He groaned quietly, turning on his side until another knock was heard.
"What!?" He yelled out of annoyance.
"Uh, it's Huey, Dew. You slept in, it's almost one." The red triplet explained. "Can I come in?"
"O-oh, yeah, just give me a minute to change." Dewey stated, getting out of bed slowly and going to change. He noticed a strange looking black leather jacket hanging in his closet. "Didn't know I had this..." He muttered, grabbing the jacket, along with a plain black shirt and put th clothing articles on. He walked over to the door and opened.
"Oh, hey, new look huh?" Dewey looked at his attire and shrugged.
"Eh, I guess." He moved a strand of hair away from his face. "You're here to talk, aren't you?"
"Yeah, can I come in?" Huey asked again.
"Yeah, whatever. Come in." The middle triplet let his brother into his room and closed the door. They both went over to sit on the blue-clad teen's bed. There was a long silence between the two before Huey cleared his throat.
"So, about that kiss." He muttered.
"You know I didn't mean it, right Hue?" The blue triplet clarified. "I was a bit out of it, I'm sorry."
"N-no, it's okay. It's fine." The eldest triplet muttered.
"Hue, um...you said that you, liked me?" Dewey wondered if he had heard his brother properly the day before, since he had a huge headache. Huey blushed brightly and looked away.
"Y-yeah, I do....I know it's wrong to like you in the way that I do, but, I just do." Huey explained. The middle triplet turned away slightly.
"H-Hue, it's fine that you like me that way, but, I don't, I-I'm not...you know, gay." He stated.
"That's fine...I guess." The red triplet teared up, but wiped his eyes before any fell. "I-I'll be okay....I can just, get over it...again..."
"Again?" Dewey questioned.
"Nothing!!!" Huey exclaimed. He stood up and rushed to the door but was held back by Dewey.
"Hue, stay. I, we still need to talk."
"You're right." Huey turned around suddenly, an angry look on his face. "Yes, I like you, and yes, you are my brother, but what I'm about to do, you deserve."
"What are you talki-" Dewey was interupted when Huey slapped him across the face harshly.
"You're an absolute idiot, Dewford! How could you join a fucking gang!?" The middle triplet didn't answer since he was still in a bit of shock from the slap. "Answer me! How could you!?" Dewey turned away, a few tears in the corner of his eyes.
"I don't know." He muttered.
"You're fucking kidding me, right!?" Huey shouted.
"Hubert! I swear, I don't know why I did it!" Dewey claimed.
"Yeah right! You probably did it to get attention! Again!!!"
"No! I-I didn't, I..." The blue-clad triplet looked down, his eyes going slightly wide. "I, I...."
"I thought so! You'll never change, will you!?" The eldest triplet looked down at the floor. Dewey stood still, not sure what he should do. Huey scoffed and turned away. "Fine, be like that!" He turned away and was about to start walking.
Dewey looked up and grabbed Huey's hand, pulling him back towards him. He turned him around and kissed him. Huey's eyes widened, a bright blush on his face. Dewey's eyes widened as well, shocked at what he had done, but something that shocked him even more, was that he liked the feeling. He pulled away from his brother and covered his beak.
"I-I'm sorry, I, I don't know what I was thinking." Huey was covering his beak as well, his eyes still wide.
"Um, u-um...I, um, uh...." The eldest triplet stayed quiet after his incoherent stuttering. He was blushing brightly. "Dewey, m-make me a promise."
"Wh-what is it Hue?"
"Please, just, promise me you'll stay away from that group. Please." The eldest triplet teared up and looked his brother in the eyes. Dewey was taken aback by the sudden tears in Huey's eyes and had the sudden urge to hug him, but stayed put. "Please Dewey, promise me!" The latter put his hand on his left cheek and looked down at the ground.
"I can't."
"What?"
"Huey, I-I can't. I can't promise, I'm sorry."
"Why? Why not? Please Dewey, it's for your safety." Huey pleaded his brother, gripping onto his arms. Tears were streaming down his face rapidly.
"Huey, believe me, I wish I could, but I can't."
"Just stay away from them! Please Dewey, I don't want you getting hurt anymore. This is dangerous." The red triplet hugged his younger brother tightly. Dewey hugged him back just as tight.
"I-I'll try Huey.....for you." Huey blushed brightly, his eyes widening slightly.
"F-for me?"
"Yes, for you." Dewey replied.
Louie watched through a crack on the other side of the door, tears in his eyes. The tears began falling when he saw his two brothers kiss. His heart broke into a million tiny pieces. He began rushing back to his room, stumbling down the hallway, his eyes blurred by his tears. He slammed his door loudly, making a few objects in his room shake.
"H-how could he? Dewey knew....he knew that I, th-that I, l-liked Huey..." The youngest triplet slid down his door, his knees pulled up to his chest. His sorrow quickly turned into jealousy, and jealousy to anger. He breathed heavily, his hands gripping the sleeves of the sweater he was wearing. "H-he'll pay for this, I'll make him pay, I-I'll make him suffer. He, will, not get away with this."
