Tobey and Jennifer had always had a good relationship with each other. They had been together for at least a year now and he could imagine spending the rest of his life with her. Since Tobey was single he started exploring the club scene of Cincinnati and that is where he had met her. He had seen her across the room and felt that it was love at first sight.
Now, a year later, they were still together, but things had taken a turn for the worst financially when Jennifer lost her job because of cut backs. They couldn't afford the apartment that they were living in downtown, so they needed a roommate. His younger brother Bobby was looking for a place to stay and Tobey decided what the hell, he should help a brother out, right?
Tobey was a bit nervous about his brother moving in with them because over the years his brother had always been interested in the same women that he was. Since his brother was younger and more charismatic and "charming" than Tobey, he always ended up with the girl no matter what Tobey did in the past. But he thought that his brother would be the better man and leave Jennifer alone.
The day that Bobby moved in, things were already tense between Jennifer and Tobey. She was frantically searching for another job and coming up empty-handed. Tobey tried to help by searching craigslist, want-ads in the paper, and any places online that he could think of. But after a while he gave up trying to help because Jennifer would always get mad at him and tell him she didn't need his help finding a job.
The knock on the door signaled Bobby's arrival and Tobey opened the door and hugged his brother tightly. Bobby and Tobey were about the same height, but being that they weren't twins, he was a bit cleaner cut than Tobey was. His stubble was neatly trimmed and his hair was spiked in the front short in the sides and back, whereas Tobey had a full beard and tended to keep his spiked in the front but longer on the back and sides.
Physically, the two of them were both pretty strong. Bobby worked out at the gym every day and Tobey hit the gym at least a few times a week when time permitted. Lately it was more because of the fact that he and Jennifer were barely talking.
"Hey, little bro, how as the trip from Washington?" Tobey asked, patting his brother on the shoulder. "Come on in and get settled. Jennifer is at an interview right now but she should be back any second."
"The trip was great, man, but I'm tired as fuck. She getting a job finally?" Bobby asked, setting his large duffel bag down on the floor as he gave a look of approval at the apartment. It was a three bedroom and one room served as Tobey's office since he worked from home.
"Yeah, she works graphic design, it's just hard to find a job that pays as much as her old one. She worked there for five years. It was pretty cut throat when they laid her off."
Bobby whistled, giving a nod of understanding. "Shit, man, that sucks. I'm going to hop in the shower, the plane ride was long as fuck and I need to unwind."
"Cool, man, it's down the hall, second door on the right." The first was a pantry that was stocked full of food.
"Thanks, bro. I appreciate you doing this for me, man. You're the best." He took a glance at a framed photo of Jennifer and Tobey hanging up in the hall and whistled. "Damn, is that her? She is one fine piece of ass. You done good, bro."
Tobey just laughed it off and turned on the TV after he heard the shower running. A few moments later the door opened and Jennifer walked in and Tobey looked at her from the couch, admiring her beautiful form. She was a few inches shorter than Tobey at 5'6" with dark hair and beautiful chocolate colored eyes. Her breasts were full and ripe, her hips shapely, and her figure had all the right curves to it. Most people would say she was average looking but Tobey would beg to differ.
"Hey, babe. Bobby is in the shower, I think. How did the interview go?" He noticed she looked passive, so he wasn't sure.
"I got the job!" Jennifer exclaimed, after a moment of awkward silence.
"Oh, thank God!" Tobey laughed and hugged his girlfriend tightly.
"Congratulations, Jennifer!" Both of them broke away from each other as they heard Bobby's voice in the room.
Tobey heard Jennifer gasp as she took in Bobbie's muscular form dripping with water with just a towel around his waist. He scowled at his younger brother and folded his arms over his chest, shaking his head. Was he doing this shit on purpose? He couldn't believe it had barely been five minutes and he was already half-naked in the living room in front of his girl.
"Sorry. I forgot that my clothes are in there." Bobby pointed at his duffel bag on the floor. He held out his hand for Jennifer to shake with a smile. "You must be Jennifer. Tobey has told me a lot about you. It's good to meet you. Sorry about the half-nakedness."
Jennifer laughed and shook Bobby's hand and Tobey noticed that her eyes were traveling all over his form, taking in his biceps and the trimmed happy tail going down past his waist but thankfully hidden behind the towel. "It's nice to meet you, Bobby." She said it a little breathlessly and Tobey had to resist the urge to roll his eyes. This was going to be a long night!
Bobby gathered his clothes out of his bag. "Oh! Let me show you to your room. Tobey, why don't you order Chinese for all of us?"
Tobey sighed and gave a nod. "Yeah, of course. We need to celebrate." He eyed his brother in a way that told him if he fucked with his girl, there was going to be hell to pay.
