In this Au Felix starts to like Ted as they got older and their both 16 at this time. The Huxley's family still hates Ted and Felix doesn't show that he actually likes Ted though, so it made him feel pretty....Depressed.

||Felix's Perspective||
I hated my brother, Teddy. I wanted nothing to do with him, I just felt like he was a distraction to our family's business and a disgrace to our name. But...Now that we are much older the hatred started to soften, and I began to see how childish i'd been back then and how Teddy could actually feel emotions while I...Couldn't. so i decided i was going to apologize to my brother for everything i had done to him.

I walked into a store to buy my brother an apology gift, because anything can be solved with money...Right? Besides that, i knew exactly what to get for him. I got Ted a small brown bear just like the one Teddy used to carry around when he was in kindergarten and elementary school, Ted had lost the bear to a bully in middle school and Teddy really missed it so I'd brought it home to hide it but when i got home Teddy seemed...Off he was sadder than usual and didn't greet me with his usually warm smile and wave but this time only a little shrug and a bit of a frown.

"Hey Teddy?" I said with worry in my voice, "Hey Felix." Teddy said that with no joy in his voice at all. Now I knew something was really wrong. "Teddy are you okay? You seem sad."I said as i put my hand on my brothers shoulder. "I'm okay just...Tired." No...i knew something was wrong with him but I'm not to good at comforting people, especially Teddy.  the best i could do right now is wait. The next morning on the walk to school my brother was oddly silent and didn't even say his usual "Morning!" To me as we left the house, I hope he's okay by the time school ends...

||Time Skip (:< After school||

Me and Teddy both got into our family's limo and he kept muttering something ever so softly so that I couldn't hear him. I kept trying to talk to him a bit but every time we would end up awkwardly silent after a few, also awkward questions. When we went inside Teddy gave me a big hug, before running up the stairs to and I quote, "put on some more comfortable clothes." I didn't think much of it but soon Ted had been up there for a bit...To long...About 4 minutes to be exact, usually it takes him only 2-3 minutes to get dressed and I wouldn't worry to much if he took a lil longer than normal but today with the way he was acting I grabbed the gift I had gotten him and went up the stairs to check on him. "Teddy?" I said while knocking on his door.....No answer? "Teddy!?" Now I was really worried so I opened the door to see Ted standing up on a chair about to...Hang himself...

"TEDDY!" I pushed him out of the chair, away from the rope and tackled him onto the floor. He looked at me so surprised...either it was because, I just pushed him to the ground in the middle of a suicide attempt, or if it was because the fact that I actually cared if he lived or died, I'll never know. All I do know is that I need to help him, and it needs to be now. "WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!?" He looked off to the side and mumbled "Why...W-Why do you care? Y-You...Hate me. Don't you?" "Ted...Listen. I may not act like it most of the time but...I love you and you mean a lot more to me than you think." Teddy looked bullets at me and began to tear up as I was already, I slowly pulled us up from the floor and still held onto Teddy so he couldn't try to run. "I-I'm sorry Felix I thought...Nobody loved me and well...You and father didn't make that any better, especially when Ozzy started hanging out with his girlfriend more." Ozzy did what! I swear after this I'm gonna kill him, but instead of saying that to Ted's face like an idiot I said "Why...Would he hangout with her more?" "I-I don't know but...Every time I would try and talk to Ozzy she would glare at me and pull Ozzy away from the conversation by either physically pulling him away, or just telling him straight up to stop talking to me." That B*tch...After this I'm going to kill her AND her little boyfriend Ozzy.

"Wow little does she know I could ruin her life in seconds for making a Huxley feel like that, hmph" A small smile appeared on Teddy's face as he sighed and responded "I-Its kinda funny that even in a situation like this you find a way to talk about our family business" He said with a small chuckle escaping his mouth. "I guess your right huh...If...I'm being honest I have been trying to learn how to feel emotions like you do...maybe you could teach me?" Teddys face lit up a bit at the idea and I could tell he was just barely holding himself back from hugging me, but he sighed and quietly said "I'd love to...Brother." A warm smile started to form on my face as I slowly started to remember the small brown bear i had brought as a gift for Teddy. I reached into my pocket and pulled the bear out, and handed it to Teddy. "Y-You...G-Got this? For me?" I nodded thinking he was surprised I even remembered the bear, "Thanks..." He said as he slowly took the bear out of my hands and cuddled it a bit. "Teddy you are the odd one out in the family...But it's because you have something this family never can buy with it's money...Kindness and Empathy. Truly your the one we should be Jealous of..." He gave me a warm smile while pulling me into a hug and I could hear him softly whisper "Thank you." In that moment I thought Maybe...Money...can't buy everything?

End-This just came to me after thinking for a bit and it came out a lot better and cuter than I expected! Also this is why they need to get along it would be so cute! Picture by: DimDawn on Tumblr-||
