Zeke's POV
************
The next afternoon,I saw a foreign man sneak into my brother's ward. I just went out to get him something to nibble on and some cat food and this random b**** strode into the room as if he owns the place.I just leaned against the door and tried to hear the conversation. I realized that it was ajar so I tried to see what was happening through the door. I turned on my recorder.
"So,kid?"He asked my little brother and he sat on the edge of his bed. My brother looked up but he didn't say anything. He couldn't reply because his voice was still hoarse.
Then..I saw the man slap him hard. "Are you a mute?"He chuckled sadistically,holding my brother's chin. The echo was so loud it's still buzzing in my ears.
I bared my teeth and glared at the man. He's lucky I don't just snap. I bite. So damn lucky,I swear. (I don't have sarcasm,I own it).
The man started unbuttoning my brother's shirt and he stroked his waist. "A fever? You're body temperature is high,"He smirked,rubbing his nipples.
I saw my brother try to push him away and he got slapped again. I would've burst into the room if I didn't have as much patience. I would have killed him for hitting a kid he doesn't even know.
I was already on boiling point when I saw him pull down my Little Angel's pants and underwear before he started to fondle him. "N-no. I-I want m-my b-brother,"He croaked,too weak to do anything else.
The man only licked his shaft and replied,"Hush. Or you'll get it bad,". The minute I saw him unbuckle his pants,I couldn't take it anymore! To see my Little Angel,my sweet baby to be touched by someone else!
I barged into the room. I threw the bag of food on the table and I saw my brother who looked at me pathetically. The man must've given him a drug. I yelled cuss words at the damn bloody b****.
You don't know what I said,I swear. I dragged the idiot away from my brother and I beat him up. I took extra curtain cords that were on the shelf and I bound his wrists and ankles tightly together. Then,I turned the recording off.
Then,I decided to check on my Little Angel. The moment I got close to him,he hugged me. I gasped and felt a little happy because,excluding the times he was a kid,this was the first time he's ever hugged me.
I hugged him back and I felt tears on my sleeve. "Are you alright?"I asked him,hugging him tightly. Oh,who the f*** am I kidding! Of course he ain't alright!
He shook his head and tightened his grip. It's a little tempting,seeing that he's naked. But,today,I'll be nice and I won't show contempt for him. I hugged him until I heard the door creak open.
Sh*t. Mom and Stepdad are here. I saw my mom about to yell at me and slap me but my stepdad stopped her and pointed at the man on the floor. She huffed and spoke to me. "What happened?".
I told her everything I saw with my dark turqoise eyes. She gasped and stared at Adam,who still clung to me tightly. "B****,"I heard her mumble under her breath and she directed her scowl at the molester. And I passed the recording to her.
My stepfather said nothing. But he smiled at me instead of giving me the usual cold shoulder. "Maybe,I should leave,"I whispered to my brother and I stood up. But,he pulled me down and continued hugging me,tearing up a little.
I could've gaped. He had never wanted my affection. He had never wanted my touch. Why now? I felt a little bit more happier and I hugged him back.
"Zeke darling?"Mom asked,directing the question at me. It's the first time she used a 'sweet name' on me. I hummed and looked at her. "Your stepfather and I are going to take this idiot to the police station. May you look after your little brother?".
I nodded and my stepfather seized the molester's arms and he walked out. Mom kissed Adam on the forehead. And she kissed me on the cheek. "Thank you,my dear,"She smiled and she left the room.
I hugged my little brother even more tightly as the door shut closed. "Zeke,p-please....cleanse m-me,"My Little Angel stuttered,snuggling into my arm. "You want me to give you a bath?"I asked,a little confused.
"N-no. You know what I m-mean. We always d-do it,"He replied,holding onto me. "But,you're tired! If you still want to though,I'll give a bath then I'll heat up your dinner afterwards. I'll be as gentle as possible,".
He nodded and that evening,he allowed me to make a mess of him. I carried him out of the bathroom. His hair was still a little wet but he didn't care.
I heated up the rice and chicken with terryaki that I bought for him and I layed it on a tray for him. He looked at me. "W-what'll you eat?"He asked me,chewing slowly on his food.
"That doesn't matter. As long as you've eaten,it's fine with me,"I replied,setting doen the cat food and water for Joules. He mewed at me and rubbed himself against my legs.
I went over to the groceries that I bought and I unwrapped a cheese bun from it's waxed paper and I bit into it. "S-surely that's not enough!"My Little Angel gasped as he saw me eating a plain bun.
"Nah. Looking after you is more important. To me,you're my first priority,"I smiled and continued to munch on my bread and cheese. He just stared at me but I saw a little smile spread across that delicate face of his.
He continued to eat slowly. And as I started to clean up,I realised that he left a few chicken wings aside. "Are you not that hungry today?"I asked,turning to him. "T-That's not mine. I've k-kept them for you,"He croaked,calling for his cat to the bed.
I blushed and I kissed his forehead. "Thank you,Little Angel,". I really thought that I should give them to him but if I did,I might hurt his feelings so I ate them quietly before resuming the cleaning up.
"Why're you so affectionate today?"I asked,sitting on the bed next to him. "B-because,I wouldn't h-have known what would h-happen to me i-if you didn't come along,"He replied,leaning on me.
I pulled him closer and eventually kissed him passionately. I could feel him kiss back for once. I pulled away and I hugged him. Today,he was begging for my touch.
He practically came to me and asked for 53x. I gave it to him. And now,he couldn't have been happier. That night,Mom and Stepdad still weren't back. But,I'll still look after my little brother.
"Goodnight,Zeke,"He whispered sleepily and he kissed me on the cheek. "Goodnight,Little Angel,"I smiled and kissed him back before I fell asleep next to him.
