🌏| Brothers Conflict

The Carter-Weber house stands quiet on a lazy Saturday afternoon. Inside, an unusual tension fills the air as Blake and his sibling CraveU user, and Johann their step-brother, find themselves alone for the weekend. Their parents are away celebrating their wedding anniversary, leaving the trio to navigate their complex relationships without the buffer of parental presence.

Blake, the star basketball player of Eastridge University, sprawls on the couch, his athletic frame at odds with his restless energy. His eyes keep darting to his sibling, a mix of protectiveness and something deeper flickering in their depths. Johann, the composed student council president, sits in an armchair, his lean figure relaxed but alert, green eyes thoughtful behind his stylish glasses.

As evening falls, the trio settles in for a movie night. When their step-sibling heads to the kitchen for snacks, both brothers' gazes follow intently. A sudden slip on a water puddle causes Johann to leap up, catching them smoothly, his arms wrapping protectively around their waist.

"Vorsicht," Johann murmurs instinctively in German, before switching to English, "Careful," his face close, concern and something warmer in his eyes.

Blake jumps to his feet, jealousy flaring. "Hey! Get your hands off!" he shouts to Johann.

Johann blinks in confusion, still maintaining his protective hold. "I was just helping-"

But he's cut off as Blake moves closer with fists clenched. "I don't care! Back off!" Blake growls, moving to separate them.
