//TW: self harm//

Tito's POV

I wake up at like 5 o'clock in the morning. I go to lay on Marley but this is not Marley, this is Jermaine. I sat up and yawned, looking at my brothers. I wouldn't ask for anyone else as my siblings. But that's not what I'm focused on. Where the hell is Marley?

I go to the bathroom and Marley was kneeling in front of the bathtub... crying? I knocked on the door "Mar bear?" She stopped and I walked over to her "He-" then I just stop. Oh, look at her arms... poor baby. "Did you do this?" She looked and me and nodded and just started crying into my chest "Can you tell me what made you do it?" She sniffed "It wasn't you guys. I just felt so wrong. Like I'm to blame" she hiccuped and kept crying "Like this is all my fault, Toriano! This is all my fault! I shouldn't have been so lazy. Maybe if I had changed clothes or.."

I held her "Was it something he said?" She nodded and I just held her "I was telling him I'm uninterested and he said "you have to be interested with that on" like... All I did was wear pajamas...i didn't think it was that bad. I see other girls with shorter shorts and yet when I wear the shorts it's wrong.." she shook her head and I held her close "I'm so so sorry. He shouldn't have said that. The shorts were fine. I'm sorry." She looked under the cabinet and hummed "you didn't do anything" I sighed. Seeing her so hurt, it's making me hurt. "I failed you, we all did. I love you so much and you're not supposed to let the ones you love hurt themselves." She looked at me "Don't blame yourself" I started laughing "Hypocrite!"

She looked at me and cracked a small smile "Please don't tell anyone else about this.." I nodded "Promise." She nodded. "Also please don't be mad but, I threw up my food..so... I couldn't hold it down, I really tried.." I raised a eyebrow at her "..you couldn't or you didn't want to? " She shrugged "something just told me to throw it up. I don't know how to describe it, i just felt... ew. I appreciate you taking me out to eat though" we nodded and I help her clean up her cuts. Then we sneak into her room and she throws on a sweatshirt. She goes to clean up the bathroom and then comes back and sits with me. We don't really do much, just sit and whisper.

She kissed my cheek "I love you so much.. if I ever passed away suddenly for whatever reason, promise that you won't forget about me or let your brothers forget about me. I want you to move on but, always remember the good times we had." I held her close "Marley, don't leave me. Don't even put the idea in our heads! You'll be right here by my side" She sniffed "no promises" I looked at her and held her tight "We're gonna make it through the storm.. promise. Us together" she nodded and kissed my cheek. I rubbed her back and we slowly fell back asleep.

A little later, Jermaine woke me up "Come on dude, it's 10am. You never sleep this late" I yawned "i had a rough night, man" Marley woke up and kissed my cheek "Jermaine..? Hi.." she hopped into his arms and fell back to sleep. I stood up and Marlon ran in "Ayo guys, apparently La Toya wants Marley today. She says we've been hogging her. And I agree-" I nodded. "Okay. She can have her for a while." Marley whined, half asleep "But Marlon is so sexy..." she buried her face into Jermaine's neck "nom nom *kissing noises* I'm a vampire! *kissing and sucking noises* mm" Jermaine looked like he was struggling to keep his composure. But, he did- thank the lords above. He sat Marley down "I know we are an attractive group of brothers but, I'm not letting you abandon my little sister. So I'm going to get you some coffee and we can hang out with La Toya." He walked away.

Marley sat up "don't leeeeeave." She rubbed her eyes "Wait- did I call Marlon sexy-? Oops" she giggled. Marlon smirked at her "You ain't lie" then he did the fuckboy face. She looked at him "whip it out and let me see how sexually appealing you really are-" she smirked playfully and he got all flustered and giggly. Marley laid back down and fell back to sleep. I shook my head "Marley..' she half opened her eyes "I like avocados..." she stood up and waddled to the bathroom. I just sat down "that was.. interesting" Marlon nodded.

Jermaine came back with coffee and we helped Marley by cleaning her room and making her bed. And then she came back from the shower. All dripping and cute. Michael looked at her and squinted. Then he just looked away. Marlon looked up and tried being sneaky about it. Jermaine avoided all contact. As for myself? I just checked her out. "You look sexy.." Marley giggled "thank you. Now all you, out."

On our way out, Jermaine asked to talk to her. I dunno what happened after that. They had the door closed. He was getting his flirt on. Didn't matter, what I knew was La Toya was either downstairs or waiting for us to pick her up. Then Jermaine came out smirking and stuff. "Where's my baby sister?" Michael rolled his eyes "she's like two years younger than you.." he shrugged "she's still younger" Marlon shook his head "Toya is downstairs. Come on" he went downstairs and we followed. La Toya looked at us "Hey dudes. Marley ready?" Jermaine looked at her "she's.. getting herself together. She'll be ready soon"

La Toya looked at him "..when did you start talking all sophisticated?" he looked at her "I just learned how to put words together, girl! It ain't that hard to comprehend. Dang.." he walked back upstairs. La Toya squinted "Do they get dirty-?" I shook my head "Nah. They're gonna. But they don't yet." La Toya nodded "She's got that energy?" I nodded "yup." Marlon looked at us "what is y'all talking about-" Then Marley walked downstairs in the prettiest yellow dress. The length, long sleeves, no shoulders. Michael smiled as she walked past him. "I think black was a good choice" she looked at him "This is yellow" he did that deep flirty voice he does when he talks to Diana Ross "I wasn't talking about the dress, Marley-" She looked at him and then she gasped "MICHAEL!" She started laughing.

I was just confused so I decided to ask "What are y'all talking about-?" Michael smirked "Marley has very nice.. undergarments!" La Toya looked at us and shook her head "Marley! Let's go to the mall" she pulled her arm. Marley screamed and everyone stopped "Please be gentle on my wrists.." La Toya looked at her "I always do that.." she started rolling up her sleeve and Marley kept pulling back. "Toya.. stop!" - "Let me help" - "LA TOYA!" At this point, she was crying. "LET ME HELP YOU" - "YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND, LA TOYA!" - "LET ME SEE. LET ME UNDERSTAND!" - "STOP STOP STOP!" La Toya finally got the sleeve up and everyone gasped. Everyone except me. La Toya slowly turned to me

"Was this your fault?" I was taken aback by the accusation. "No!" - "HOW'D YOU KNOW?" - "I caught her!" - "AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ANYONE?" - "NO I DIDN'T. SHE ASKED ME NOT TO. I JUST RESPECTED HER WISHES. WHY ARE YOU SO GOD DAMNED DEFENSIVE? Michael interrupted our bickering "guys, Marley is crying.."

Jermaine came flying down the steps "Baby girl, are you alright?!" he hugged her and they sat on the floor. Marley was sobbing into him and he just kept reassuring her everything would be okay. They talked, kissed, and Jermaine wiped all her tears "there's no need to cry, pretty girl. Okay?" She nodded and smiled a little.

Like you know that sad smile you make when someone catches you crying and tells a joke to cheer you up? That one.

He kissed her forehead "now, which one of y'all made her cry like that?" Michael and Marlon comforted Marley and I sighed "I did. I was arguing with La Toya about Marley's cuts.." Jermaine gasped "her what?" Marley looked at "I-I'm sorry.." he hugged her "it's alright.. don't apologize." He kissed her again. La Toya sighed "It was our fault. I can get defensive, hotheaded.. along with a ton of other adjectives" she sighed. I nodded "we shouldn't have been yelling.."

Marley stood up and hugged La Toya "You're so great. You're sweet and protective and a great friend." She walked over to me and hugged me "you're so kind. You're just so chill and I would go to you with almost any problem. Okay? You're both just so helpful and just awesome!" She smiled at us and walked to the kitchen.

La Toya giggled "Her hugs are the best" Jermaine nodded "and her head" Michael looked at him, confused "how is her head superior?" Marlon looked at him "Ya nasty" I rolled my eyes "she never-" Jermaine sighed "I was joking! Jokes jokes. But when she does, I'll tell you allllllll about it" La Toya rolled her eyes "Y'all are a bunch of perverts! Michael looking up her dress, Jermaine joking about getting the sloppy toppy, I saw Marlon checking her out. And Tito.. I've got nothing on you yet- YET! But, I'm watching you.." she walked off to the kitchen with Marley. I giggled "Let's head out y'all" we all laughed and went home.
