“Hey Ev, can you maybe take a bit of time out of your super busy schedule and help me?” Taylor asked Evan.
He seems a bit surprised at Taylor’s request. “Sure, of course! Always willing to help a lady in distress,” he readily responds.
“That is NOT helping, you dick!”
“Okay, I am sorry. I will help you and I will try and behave myself.”
“Okay, but no more weird shit.”
“You might as well tell me not to breathe,” he replies with a laugh.
“I guess I will see what I can find out by myself. I will do my best, Taylor,” Drew pledges before waddling off.
Taylor and Evan eventually head to the library and start searching the databases. Taylor finds a few very technical papers that go way over his head but end up finding nothing that would explain what happened to him.
“This is obviously something new...I guess even recent journals wouldn’t have anything.” Taylor thought to himself.
Eventually his rumbling stomach reminds him that he has been at it for hours.
“Ahhh, I am starving.”
“Me too,” Evan agrees. “Want to go to the cafeteria?”
“Yeah, we could—”
“Oh!” Evan cuts you off with excitement as an idea apparently pops into his head. “What about that pizzeria on the corner near campus? They have a special today, large pizza half off if you dine in.”
“That does sound good,” Taylor admitted. “And I guess I could treat you since you are helping me out."
“Great! Let’s go!”
A short walk later they arrive at the pizzeria. It is surprisingly crowded owing in part to the special and in part due to the quality.
Taylor orders a large supreme pizza and a couple of draft beers. The beer goes down easy after a long stressful day. he decided to order another round while hd waits for his pizza.
When it finally arrives the two of thsm pig out.
Sadly, Taylor realised his stomach seems to have shrunken with the rest of him and he was only able to eat two slices before his pace slows to nothing.
Taylor zoned out for a moment and noticed Evan staring at him. The conversation ceases and suddenly he feels a bit strange, as a nervous air seizes hold of his little bubble.
“To be honest...I have had a thing for Julie for years,” Evan finally breaks the silence.
The admission catches Taylor off guard. he knew most of his friends found Julie attractive but this seems to go deeper.
Taylor begin to respond but find himself fumbling for the right words.
“That’s ...gross,” he manages.
“Not really. If you take away the fact she is your sister I bet you would find her really hot too.”
“Uh… I don’t know about that.” Maybe Evan was right. Or maybe he was a huge moron, it was hard to tell sometimes.
Evan notes Taylor’s confusion and continues, “Well now you look a lot like her—better actually in some ways….and you and I have been friends for ages...Surely you can see how I might be feeling right now.”
“Uhh… maybe, but It is still so fucking weird!”
“Yeah, sure it is weird, but sometimes that taboo feeling makes for some pretty satisfying fantasies.”
“Are you being serious right now? I can’t tell.”
Evan dodges his question. “Do you want to hang out?” he asks Taylor.
“We already are…”
“No, I mean tonight. We could watch a movie on my big screen,” he suggests. “I know how you love those lame sci-fi movies.”
“They aren’t lame!”
It is already a bit late but Taylor has always been a glutton for leisure. he usually has fun with Evan too, except this time he can’t help but feel his friend might have an ulterior motive.
Taylor Decided to…
