Gadget's Pov:
My brother Gears and I walked along the railings of mall. We were holding a party but, had to buy the decorations early due to the snow. As we talked and held onto a big bag of those decorations, I looked up to see him. "Ugh, you two." Gears said, noticing our two rivals. Infinite and Mephiles, two brothers who were currently our rivals . They were adopted brothers since one was a Jackal while the other was a hedgehog I suppose.

"Look at that, the nerds of the school are here!" Mephiles teased and we both gave him glares. "Aw, they're angry! What are you gonna do? Delete your own feelings?" Infinite added in then gave his brother a high five. "Leave us alone! We didn't do anything to you guys." I exclaimed, hoping this may stop. I hated it when they did this, I was more sensitive and emotional than my brother who was protective and confindent.

"Yeah whatever sugar. We gotta go now so, we could talk trash behind your backs even more." Infinite said while Mephiles laughed at his statement. "Don't call my brother 'Sugar' asshole!" Gears replied and I gasped, knowing full well what might happen. "Oh, you're gonna pay now!" Mephiles exclaimed in anger and pushed my brother onto the floor. I walked towards Infinite who was smiling at me.

"How long until they realize we're in a mall?" Infinite asked me as I looked at my phone. "Once security come over, good thing I grabbed the bag though." I explained and held up the bag containing fragile items. "Have you told Gears about us yet?" Infinite asked, starting to get worried. "No, what about you?" I replied as I held his hand so he could calm down. "Hell no, Mephiles would stop talking to me if he found out about us dating!" He whisped to me, just in case our brothers heard.

Later, security pulled Mephiles off of Gears and warned him about it. They both stood there ground and glared at each other. "Come on, I wanna go home!" I whined at my brother as I pulled on his sweater. "Yeah bro, let's get away from these losers." Infinite agreed and both of them sighed. They nodded and we went into opposite directions. As I passed by Infinite, I gave him a shy smile while he gave me a full on smirk. I blushed at his expression which made him sliently chuckle.

I looked at my brother who was still angry at Mephiles, he hated those two for a long time. I can't tell him that I'm dating one of them now. I have to wait so for now, I am in a secret affair of sorts. At least, that's what I call it.
