Temptations

Haynes

We sat in the emergency room patiently waiting for some news about Sante. His car was found terribly wrecked to the point he had to get air lifted to the hospital.

He will freak if he found out he was in a public hospital.

Celeste rushed in with her black glasses and black trench coat looking side to to side to find us. I stood up brushing off my suit once her eyes landed on mine.

She rushed over to me before sobbing, "I-I- is this my fault?" She asked me clearly in distress. I couldn't answer her question, "answer me Haynes. Is it my fault." She asked again taking me by my suit.

I broke the eye contact and gave a slight nod making her sob out letting go of me before holding onto her stomach.

"I'm so sorry. Please tell me he's alive?" She stammered as I took her waist. "He's alive Celeste. Stop apologizing, my brother is also struggling with something else." I informed her as she started to hyperventilate.

I looked back at my papa and mammá who was clearly upset, my mammá crying in my pa's hold. I looked back at Celeste and instructed her to breathe.

The doctor came out the double doors making me remove my hold from her and rush over to the doctor, "how's my brother?" I bumrushed him.

"He's doing fine at the moment however he requested no one to see him. He is awake, very upset-"

"What's his room number? Just asking." I gave a small smile, "503-"

Before he could finish I pushed my way past him and rushed between those double doors to see my brother.

"Sir!"

"Haynes!" My mother and father called out but I ignored all of them before opening my brothers room door.

He looked like shit.

His leg propped up in a cast making me snicker from the memories of when we were younger.

"Get out." He rasped and I shook my head before locking the door and sitting down. "She's here-"

"I don't give a shit. Fuck her." He spat, anger clearly written over his face. "What she did was wrong but you got yourself in this position. You wrecked, you drive knowing you're not supposed to drive while having a panic attack brother. Do not play the victim games, she is hurting aswell, she obviously is feeling guilty that she put 'you' into this situation." I spat shutting up my brother from his lousy attitude.

He glared at me and kept his lips puckered before opening, "why do you keep quoting you. She put me in this situation-"

"Brother are you slow? Have you hit your head during the wreck? Did you not hear what I just said? Stop trying to put the blame on her. You are old enough to make right or wrong decisions and what you did was a dumb decision. You let that get in your head? Last time I checked you both aren't even dating- fucking hell, she's dating Marco and that got you triggered out of all the things Diesel?" I finally raised out the seat and stared down at him letting my emotion get the best of me.

His eyebrows furrowed in from the name that I called him. We never call- our family never calls him 'diesel' unless a serious or upset matter.

We call him diesel because his temper could burn and hurt anyone... including Celeste. He would hurt her, he would break her into pieces if he wanted too.

Not physically, mentally.

"She knows what she did. You might not understand, but she knows." He gritted clearly still ignorant not getting the fact that he needs to pay the price for his own consequences.

"When Celeste come in-"

"She's not coming in, period." He interrupted me, his tone harsh leaving me to stare at him in complete embarrassment from how he's acting.

"She's coming in. Stop acting like a bitch. Man this shit up, you're sweating over a fucking broken leg or ankle- whatever you fucking hurt?" I shouted at him before slapping the side of his cast making him hiss.

"I don't want to hear anymore bullshit coming out your mouth or I'll shut it for you and break your other knee, Capito?" I pointed at him and he turned his cheek.

"It's a shame how I have to adult you as my role as a younger brother." I spat letting him digest my words.

I'm his younger brother and I'm correcting his poor behavior. He's acting like a child, this is the lowest I've seen him.

Enola will be soon dealt with.

What came across my mind as I walked towards the waiting room how come he's never held this type of grudge against Enola but when Celeste does something minor he flips out? Weird isn't it.
