Boyfriends To Bros

 

When I wished that my boyfriend and I would become closer, this wasn’t what I was expecting. The lockdown had affected everyone differently, but it had caused my boyfriend and I to argue a lot more and we had become more and more distant from each other. It just wanted things to go back to how they were when we had first met and couldn’t leave each others side. 

As soon as I made the wish I felt as though I was falling and I hit the ground with a loud thud. I let out a groan as I opened my eyes and saw I was now laying on what seemed like a gym mat. “Bro! Are you ok?” said someone that sounded like my boyfriend, but my boyfriend would never say ‘bro’. As I lifted myself up I looked at my arms in confusion, I didn’t have this much muscle.

Getting to my feet I looked down at my body in confusion, why was I wearing a singlet, or more importantly why were my muscles so big? Reaching up to my face I was even more confused as I felt my face now covered in stubble. 

“Bro!” I felt someone shove me slightly, I looked up and was even more confused, the person in front of me looked like my boyfriend, but different. He was also wearing a singlet, his muscles were now much bigger, which was confusing as he used to be a skinny twink, and he had a cocky smirk on his face. 

The more I looked at him the more I got confused and my mind went fuzzy. He wasn’t my boyfriend, he couldn’t be, I wasn’t even gay, neither was he. We were both straight as an arrow, I mean sure we fooled around a bit in college, but the most it got to was jacking off together in college while watching porn. We were both total frat boys, drinking every night and trying to get any girl we could to sleep with us. 

“Sorry bro” I said shaking my head as I looked at my best bro, “lets get back to practice”.

The difference a brother can make

 

Man, I wasn’t expecting this when I wished that my sister was actually my brother. I was just hoping that it would make her more interested in the geeky things I was into, rather than makeup and reality tv shows. But I guess having an older brother actually had more of an effect on me than I though it would as I had changed as well as her.

Gone was my geeky and scrawny former self, now I was a cocky and confident guy, covered in tattoos. It was obviously I now spent a good part of my time in the gym. I wasn’t complaining, in fact I actually liked the change and was already starting to forget that I my brother was actually my sister, he always had and always will be my bro, we’re as close as two people could be, hell my memories are telling me we even sleep with the same girls, and occasional willing guy, I think things had worked out for the better.

The Bro Wall

Scrolling through my instagram feed I let out a sigh, every other picture was now some hot guy in front of this mural downtown that had become a sudden instagram hotspot. It was stupid, what was so impressive about a wall that every guy in town wanted to take a picture in front of it?

It was only when I was walking pasted it my chance one afternoon on my lunch break that I decided to finally give in a take a photo. I was nowhere near as hot or muscular as every other guy that had taken a photo in front of it, but for some reason I felt drawn towards it. I stood in front of it for a few moments before awkwardly trying to take a selfie in front of it, getting frustrated when I couldn’t get myself and the mural in the frame. 

“Yo, bro” yelled this big muscular jock, as he jogged over towards me, his large pecs bouncing as he approached me. “Want me to take the pic for you bro?” he asked with a smile.

“Umm.. sure” I said, awkwardly as I handing him my phone, “Thanks”. He took the phone and held it up, taking a few steps back to get it all in frame. 

“Great now smile” he yelled out to me, “and get ready for your life to change” he muttered. The flash on my phone went off and I was temporarily stunned, it was much brighter than it usually was. I blinked a few times and stumbled slightly, my vision darkened as sunglasses appeared on my face. “Bro!” I said with a cheery smile as I adjusted my baseball cap, unaware that it had not been there several seconds ago, “Lemme see” I say taking my phone off him. “Ah, that looked great bro” I say fist bumping him, “really shows off my muscles, now lets get to the gym bro, gotta work on making this bad boys bigger”
