Too smart

Too smart
MATEO's POV
They both stared at me and Douglas walked up to me and held my shoulders.
"What is obvious?"
He looked very serious and sharp like he had been caught with a body bag or something.
"Wow, relax man.. Chill. You know me, huh? I don't judge."
I moved away from him, sat on the desk, and looked at both of them.
"You both didn't really think I was going to find out, right? Nah.. How dumb do you both think I am? Mikey, this is from a place of love, okay? I know my brother well, and I know how he acts whenever he is.."
"Mateo, what the fuck are you talking about? What are we doing?"
Mikey asked defensively.
'Ah, for a second I forgot he's a lawyer.. He wants to intimidate me.'
"Okay first of all Mr Mikey this ain't a court, so chill.. No need to raise shoulders.. We are also getting ready to leave, but I decided to speak to you both, Doug especially."
"We are listening."
Doug said and they both sat down quietly like children.
"Douglas.. You are so used to punishing yourself whenever you feel you are doing or have done what you believe you weren't supposed to do, but trust me, you are a strong and influential man, and I'm proud of you, wherever our parents are I'm sure they are proud of you too.. Now, I've never judged you and never will.."
"Mateo.. What.. Why are you saying all these?"
I grinned then looked back at Mike.
I always knew there was something fishy about Mike, how he used to stare at Doug back in the house. Not everyone noticed but I always knew that he'd have a soft spot for Doug, a very soft one.. One where he saw Doug as himself.. He wanted Doug not as a client, not as a friend, but as a lover..
"Mikey.. This route you have taken my brother on, I hope you are ready for it because I'm sure that you know for a fact it would be bumpy.. My.. I mean his brothers would skin you alive if they ever found out.. So.."
"Mateo.. What the fuck are you talking about? What.. What.."
Mike tried to get into my head, but Doug hit his hand 
I flickered my eyes, tilted my head.
"He knows.. Mateo, knows.. I would have been shocked if you didn't know though.. We don't call him the brain of the family for nothing.."
Doug said barely a whisper and I chuckled.
"Mateo, it's really not what you think.. Doug and I.. Wait, I.. I.. I've always.. Doug.. I'm crazy about him.."
"Okay, okay.. Let's not go deep into the conversation.."
I quickly raised my hands and protested.. They both laughed loudly and so did I.
"And one thing, Mike? I've never judged you and I never will. I know you, and I know how good a person you are.. I know my brother has extra care now in his life.."
We shook hands and hugged lightly.
"When and how did you even realize it? We were so discreet.. You, Mateo, are a wizard.."
"Well, maybe you both just had so many loopholes.. For what it's worth, I always knew Mikey was Gay.."
I said and Doug walked to stand beside the door leaving Mike alone in the middle.
"So I put two and two together when I saw you both getting way too close, and yeah, easy peasy."
"Okay, just for the record, I'm no Gay.. I'm Bi-Sexual.."
"Oh.. Fuck that.."
Doug and I said and we laughed loudly.
"I'm just glad that my brother is doing all these with you, Mikey.. I mean you both haven't even kissed yet, right?"
I asked. They stared at each other and avoided my gaze.
"What?!!! You both.. What?"
"Okay.. I mean it's normal between us since we are.."
"Shut the hell up, Mikey, Mateo.. We are good, okay? Do not worry about anything and do not stress yourself, okay? I.. You know me.. No one can mess or fuck me up.. They might end up in a body bag if they dare.."
He said, We both stared at Mikey, and he looked scared and clueless.
"Do not scare poor Mike like that, Brother. You know he's a lawyer he might sue you.."
"Nah.. I will just kiss his lips and he will forget about everything.."
"You didn't have to say that. Eww."
I felt disgusted but Mikey was filled with smiles and his cheeks quickly turned red.
"You both have fun.. We will pack up and meet you guys downstairs.."
I walked away with both of them laughing hard.
"In a crazy house like mine, it is at least right that one of us is different.. But for some reason I never expected it to be Douglas.. He is way too strict and nonchalant, but at the same time, I'm happy for him, for them.
I got to the room and Lisa was done packing up and had gone downstairs to the car.
A text came in on my phone and I didn't bother checking it.
"Hope you didn't forget anything, Lisa.."
I said softly to myself and my phone rang.
'Of course, you just had to call me.'
I sighed heavily and grinned.
"Hey.. Looks like someone finally remembered me, huh?"
"Mateo.. I'm sorry, babe.. I was caught up in so many things last night and I also didn't know what to say to your request, but I sent a text.."
I quickly checked it and a big smile spread all over my face.
"Do you mean this? Will you really.."
"I can't promise, but I will try to, Mateo.. It's my anniversary tomorrow if you still remember.. So it's a lot.."
"One night then, just like you stated here in the text.. I've missed you, Astrid.. Sneaking around or spending 30 minutes ain't gonna be enough for us.. For me with you, huh?"
"Mateo.."
"Please, babe.. Unless you want me to pull you out of your anniversary party.. I'll do it.."
