I was sitting under a blanket in my fuzzy pajamas with morning cartoons playing in the background. It was the day after Christmas, and I was multitasking between the television and using an Apple gift card to buy a series I wanted to binge-watch over my break from school. Mom walked into the family room holding two mugs and sat one on the end table next to me. She was also dressed in pajamas and a robe with huge fluffy slippers on her feet. She sat next to me on the couch.
"What are you up to?" Mom asked.
"Just using my Apple gift card from Grandma. You can change the channel if you want to."
Mom took the remote I offered to her, and I picked up the mug she brought me. I expected hot chocolate but was delighted to find coffee instead. I took a sip and then looked at the mug.
"Is there something wrong with your coffee?" Mom asked.
"Mom. Is there alcohol in this coffee?"
"Oh, shoot. I added some Bailey's to mine, and I must have put some in your mug as well."
"Are you ok? You're not getting Alzheimer's or something?"
"No. I'm just a little distracted."
I put down my phone and moved closer to Mom so our arms and shoulders were touching.
"As you always say, a problem shared is a problem solved," I said.
"I'm worried about Zach."
"Do you need me to go beat him up?" I teased.
"He didn't seem happy with his Christmas gifts. In fact, he's been moping ever since you two turned eighteen a few weeks ago. Do you have any idea what's wrong with him?"
That was a good question. Zach is my little brother by fourteen minutes. We were close growing up until we started high school. Then the pull of friends, sports for me, clubs for him, and schoolwork eroded the twin bond we shared until we were simply like any other brother and sister. December had been busy for me. I was a senior in high school and co-captain of the girls' varsity basketball team. We had a solid team this year, so our coach was pushing for every practice she could schedule. As a result, I had not paid much attention to what was happening in Zach's life.
"Mom. You just made me realize how I've been so busy this month that I haven't talked much to Zach. I'll let you know what I find out."
"Thanks, Belle."

After finishing my coffee and enjoying the warmth of Bailey's Irish Cream in my tummy, I went upstairs to torment Zach.
I knocked on his door, but he did not answer. I cracked it open and called into his room.
"Hey, numb nuts. Put your dick away so I can come in."
No response.
Normally we were extremely respectful of each other's privacy. We always knocked before entering the other's bedroom. I peeked into his room, and Zach was still asleep on his side, facing out towards the door, which I flung open.
"Bonsai!"
I ran and jumped on his bed. I was bouncing up and down, shaking him awake.
"What the fuck! Belle. I was dead asleep," Zach said.
I kneeled over Zach's hips as he remained curled up on his side.
"Were you up all night jerking off or just playing video games."
"Fuck. What time is it?"
"It's a little after nine. What time did you go to bed, you little shit?"
"About four-thirty. And I was playing WoW with Brian and Jerome."
"And if I check your wastebasket, I'm not going to find a bunch of fresh tissues?"
"Belle. You're fucked up."
"Jeez. Pull that stick out of your ass."
"I just woke up. I only slept a few hours. Go away."
"Nope. I'm on a mission from Mom."
"What does Mom want? I took out all of the trash last night."
"She said that you're fucked up, and I'm supposed to fix you. I told her it was probably impossible, but I would try anyway."
"Can't you bother me later?"
"Nope. Becky and I are getting the team together after lunch for an informal practice. I only have a few hours to fix you."
"Nothing is wrong with me. Go away."
There was only one thing left to do. Zach hated to be tickled. Hated it. I got in a solid five seconds of tickling before he started fighting back. I'm five foot five inches and 105 pounds of solid muscle. I'm not kidding. The only soft parts of my body were my lips and my intimate areas. I doubled up in sports. In the Fall, I played soccer and track. Winter was basketball and indoor track (I never had time for practice because of basketball, but I made it to most track meets). Spring was softball, and dare I say it, more track. What can I say? I loved to run. Now Zach had the DNA to be a jock, but not the inclination. He was five feet, ten inches, and about 165 pounds. Zack was in fair shape for not being active besides mandatory gym. If he put some dedication into working out, he would have a pretty nice body. But Zach was more sensitive than I was. We used to joke that our bodies were switched in the womb. Where I was sports, sports, and more sports, Zach was on the Debate Team, Mock Trial, Yearbook, and the Gaming club. He could also sing well but stopped after a music or art class was no longer mandatory after our Sophomore year of high school. So while Zach wasn't as physically fit as I was, he was still a guy, larger and in general stronger. Zach grabbed my hands and pushed me away. In a flash, he rolled me over onto my back and began tickling me. I started tearing up I was laughing so hard, begging him to stop. When he did, Zach leaned over, his nose only a couple of inches from my own.
"No more," Zach said.
The last time I remembered we were in this situation, where I initiated a tickling attack, and Zach held me down until he won, I think we were eleven or twelve. My eyes watered up again, this time in reminiscence. What had happened to us? So many years passed since I felt this close to my brother. I sat up quickly, and before he could react, I quickly kissed Zach on the tip of his nose.
"Twin Kiss. I win." I said.
And Zach broke down crying.
So there was something wrong and I, living in my little world, missed it. I put one arm around his back and the other behind his head and pulled Zach down so his face was buried in my neck. I could feel his tears sliding down my skin as he sobbed. I kept telling him that everything would be alright, and I loved him. When he finally calmed down, Zach rolled onto his side. I kept my arms wrapped around him but let enough room so I could look into his face.
"Bee. I didn't think anyone loved me anymore," Zach said.
"Oh. Zee. Of course, I love you."
I wiped his tears away with my fingers.
"What made you think that nobody loves you?"
"When we started pulling away at the beginning of high school, I wasn't too concerned because I figured I would have a girlfriend to fill in the void. But here I am, halfway through my senior year of high school, and I haven't had one single girlfriend."
"That's not a big deal. I've only had two boyfriends, and the longest was for a little over two months."
"But you go on dates all of the time."
"I don't go on a lot of dates. Maybe more than you have. But I'm not serious about anyone. I don't have the time."
"How many dates have you gone on this year?"
"I don't know. Four or five."
"With how many different guys?"
"Zachery Martin Mitchell. Are you implying something?"
Zach's eyes widened. "No! It's that you went on more dates with different people this year than I had during all of high school."
"Why do you think that is?" I asked.
"I don't know."
"Look. Neither of us will ever be mistaken for models, but we're also not hideous chads. You're not shy in general, and I know you have female friends. So, what's the problem?"
"I don't want to talk about it."
"Come on, Zee."
It took over ten minutes of wheedling until Zach finally gave me some sort of an answer.
"Look. I've only kissed one girl, and that was the day after we turned eighteen, and she basically told me to come back once I learned how to kiss."
