Lucas took a breath. And another one. And another one. I know he didn't want to talk about this. I didn't want to talk about this either or hear about it but unfortunately life is full of stuff you don't want to do. I only realize now that I have been lightly crying. I don't know how long I have been but I'm assuming for a bit anyway.

I guess the boys got tired of the virtue known as patience and were angry enough before he left them off on that cliffhanger that they decided to speak up.

"What the hell did you see? What happened?" I think the voice was Marco. I don't know I've barely heard them all talk. I think I'd only be able to clearly identify Vincent and possibly Christian, maaaybe Diego. Only them because they were part of the origin story slash story time moments.

I heard another voice this one I could identify as Christian say, "give him a moment. He'll tell us but let him prepare himself. Give him a breather none of what he's been talking about is exactly light."

I feel bad for making Luke do all the talking but I know he wouldn't want to force me to talk about it or talk in general unless it was to him. Also, he wouldn't want me to relive it even more than I am and if I was the one speaking I'd probably be having panic attacks and full on sobbing.

"Thanks Christian." Lucas released a sigh, tightened his grip on me and I snuggled impossibly closer to him. "When I opened my eyes I saw that bastard standing up playing with his fucking pants. Lily was on the floor beaten and bloody. That wasn't the worst part though she was naked and sobbing. He fucking beat her and then raped her."

I hear the boys cursing, mumbling under their breaths and then I hear something crash and I jump. I hear another voice reprimand them but I'm starting to get the familiar feeling of being dragged into a memory or a panic attack. Yelling, familiar. Loud noises, familiar. Crashes, familiar.

Thankfully before things get the chance to escalate further Lu's voice brakes into the mix. "Hey cool it will you." His voice softens, not that it was loud in the first place, just firm. "Hey you're alright these newfound brothers of ours were just being complete dodo birds got it? We're not there. You're not there."

I weakly nodded and mumbled, "yeah, okay I know."

"Yeah you're alright." He then turned his attention back to the boys "After I saw that I attacked him. There was a lamp not too far away and I was able to grab it and knock him out. After that I carried her to our room, helped her clean up really quick, then I packed those bags," he points to our two backpacks that were sitting on the floor not too far away. "Then we got out of there." The boys just sat there for a couple minutes absorbing it all. After about two minutes Luke spoke up again. "Alright you're fine you know that, right?" My twin questioned to which I nodded. "Okay so can I show them now?"

"Show us what?" Came a confused voice. Who it belongs to however I haven't a clue.

I knew what he meant. These guys obviously are loaded and they seem to genuinely care if not they are putting up a pretty good act. He wants to show them my injuries. They will have the resources to help me and him being the overprotective twin he is, he just wants me to be properly looked after.
