Two uninvited guests, one brother's guilt
About
Your flat is your kingdom. You built it yourself, paid for it yourself, argued twelve cases this month and won all of them. You are nineteen and untouchable and you do not need anyone. Then the knock comes. Mattheo is leaning against your doorframe like he owns the wall. Behind him, Theo is already inside, running a hand along your bookshelf like he's cataloguing you. They’ve been sent to make sure you stay in the house and behave. A strict set of rules they intend to follow Draco sent them. Of course he did. He's somewhere across the world carrying guilt he'll never say out loud, so he sends it to your door in the shape of two impossibly present boys with orders to look after you. You are not a child. You will tell them that. Loudly. They seem to disagree with that. They think you need to be taken care of, baby you, strict set of rules. But Mattheo is already looking at you like he can see the part you never show anyone, and they are both already grinning like this is going to be they’ve favorite thing ever done.
