"Brother Given to Another Mother"

Finding The Boy.

The night was rainy and cold in Britain, the weather was usually unpredictable and expectedly unpleasant. When Beatrice walked up to Henrys room rather seriously.

"Henry. I think it's time i told you something.", two knocks
Henry answered, a little confused.

"Oh. Come in, Bea." He looked slightly worried as Beatrice clearly had a sadness of fear to say something in her downturned eyes as she looked at henrys eyes, then his feet, then to air.

"Sit down, please." She lightly grabbed his arm, sitting him down next to her.
"Do you want it straight up, or sweet and beating around the bush..?"

"Straight up."

Beatrice sighs heavily. she was hoping for sweet and beat around the bush.
but okay, she shakily said— "Okay. Dad never died, at-least not when we where told he was.he might be dead now, but he wasn't then."

Henry shutters as these words leave her mouth.

"........what." his words are stern and intense. shattering. as he heart was.
"what the fuck.... whyd he do that. Beatrice why do you know. Bea, what the fuck why did he lie. what did i do wrong." his eyes pacing as his pupils dilated. he may have been crying, his mind was lost he didn't even know if he was crying, he was. he was shaking, and playing with his pinky like that one anxiety thing he did, which he never noticed.

"Henry i should've never told you... im so-" her words are gone as her voice cracks. "so sorry." she grabbed his hands trying to hold them to calm him down as he politely took his hands back.

"no. dont be. what else do you have to tell me. explain. what do you know."

"Well, he ran away to not become king he prayed he never became it, and the chance to run away came and he did. he lives in france but we dont know if he changed him name or disappeared or killed himself, but we tracked his son. he lives in britain and goes to a highschool nearby." Beatrice explains, slightly not concentrated and in her own world.

"whats his name, please tell me his name." he says

"Nick. Nick Nelson." the words come out her mouth like shes forced to say them, like she knows who she's talking about.

"Can we find him." henry had some sense or hope in his eyes.

"We can sure try." she smiled at him finally making eye contact with the broken boy, for the first time henry felt some sense of hope or pride that he might have one last connect to his father.

"Can you go now?" he askes her nicely, trying to be sweet as possible.

"Of course." Beatrice gets up and walks away to her room, a faint smile, very faint tho.

He immediately called Alex the minute he left the room.

"I need you in Britain. Please."
"Babe, its 2 in the morning here."
"Alex. Please." his voice was stern with a slight small crack in the middle.
"Fine. Cya in a few hours."

Alex booked the next flight to Britain and boarded a plane in an hour, getting there and immediately running, and he ran, to henrys room faster than he has ever run.

"Im hereee~!" Alex leaned against the door frame to henrys room.
"Come in love, i have so much, as the gays say... tea?" He smiled.

"Oh? Well lets spill" Alex layed on his bed, plopping down as Henry layed reading his book, which he set down when Alex layed down.

"Okay, so. I have a brother—" Alex immediately cut him off
"—Yes Phillip? I know."
"No. His names... Nick? Nick Nelson?" Alex shuttered a bit, he knew that name but couldn't recall where or why.

"Do you know him." Henry asked, suspiciously

"No— i don't know, i've heard the name." Alex opened his phone trying to find if he knew the person. He searched the name on all his socials to see if he could find him somewhere. "...Nevermind, found em."

"THAT QUICK." Henrys eyes widened,
"LISTEN IM EFFICIENT—. Oh my good yall are twins." he showed Henry the photos of him and charlie on his socials.

"HES GAY TOO.? OH MY FUCK." Alex shoved his phone in Henrys face, scrolling. Henry gasped as he saw the photos, he needed to meet this kid.

"Send me his ins—" Henrys phone dinged
"Already did." Alex smiled.

Henrys opened Nicks instagram dms.
And he typed up.

'Hey, this all will sound crazy, and wrong and messed up and all, but im your brother. Yeah, you probably just went insane. But i am. You're a royal! yay? not really but, you are.

he texts back.
'oh, oh shit. yeah ill be there at 2. With Charlie, my boyfriends name is Charlie. Can't wait. xx Nick'
sent, and immediately again,

seen by Henry.

Alex smiled. Henry smiled at him. Causing Alex to smile more, then lean in to kiss him. passionately.

"I love you." Henry smiles.

"I love you more" Alex scruffs Henrys hair affectionately.

"Debatable" Henry looks up at his messed up hair then at Alex.. As Alex fixes his hair for him.
