strong brothers

Twisted turn

                                      Ezra's pov

In other words. Trying to explain what a nemesis is towards Avery isn't such a great idea after all. 'So Percy is nemesis brother?' He asked innocently. 'Percy- what? No, nemesis is a wor- ah never mind.' I sigh. Regretting everything. Avery isn't the smartest and brightest brother I've had, but can you really blame that cutie?

'Nemesis is a nickname for bad guys.' Tyson chimed in while I was halfway through my thoughts. 'Just like how you called Jake, jakey.' He added. 'Oh.' Avery said. Finally realising nemesis was a word and not an actual human being.

I couldn't help but laugh a little when Avery does that same facial expression he always does when he realises something.

It took him awhile to finish the food and I totally understand the hardships of swallowing slumps that were supposed to be "food." But after all. School made it. So my expectations were already down. I guess Silas gotta prepare lunch for us next time... heh. Anyways. Recess was now over, And it was time for hell to continue. But you gotta work hard to reap the rewards... right?

I was wrong. I. Ezra. Somehow managed to get into detention right after school for smacking a random kid in the face. Like. It wasn't even "my" fault.. maybe only 70% of it was actually me. But I couldn't care less since ace got me out immediately after answering the head mistress phone. The magics of the castor brothers is unmatched compared with normal civilians! (Insert evil batman laughter sound)

'Why do you always do this?' Silas scolded me as we arrived home. A warm welcome for me? As expected. "He deserved it! And plus. I barely did a thing." I tried to counter. But knowing Silas, he wouldn't buy it that easily. 'Deserve what? A smack on the face?! You could've gotten jail time if we didn't own the local police department! A broken nose is not nothing!' He shouted back. Controlling his voice to prevent that same incident to happen again. 'Geez.. sorry. Won't do that ever again.' I said. Smiling at him before running off into my room.

Locking the door behind me. I quickly tossed my bag aside. Flopping onto the bed and pulling out my AirPods to turn on some music when someone knocked on my door. Groaning loudly. I got off from the comfort of the bed and reached the door. "Who is it?" I asked. Half expecting it to be Silas here for revenge. But instead of that usual scolding through the door. It was a soft voice calling my name. I immediately opened the door and Avery came crashing into me again. 'Woah there Avery.' I said as he buried his face into my chest. Sobbing almost immediately.

I brought him towards my bed and carried him into my arms before throwing myself gently onto the bed. Rocking him softly while he continued to cry. 'What happened to him?' I mouthed towards my door. Which was named Jake and Cason.

Embarrassed. They hurriedly came into the room and pretended like nothing had happened. 'What are you guys doing?' I asked. This time audible. Both of them just shrugged their shoulders at the same time and sat down on the edge of my bed. I sigh. Looking at them just sitting there.

'What's wrong Avery?' I finally asked. He sniffed and looked up into my eyes. That wet brown eyes almost getting me cooing over him. 'S-Silas was m-mad at you.' He mumbled out. Hiccuping in the process. 'So A-Avery think you sad because you run aw-away!'

'Aww it's okay Avery. Ezra isn't sad! He just wants sleep!' I whispered softly into his ear, while Jake and Cason were Trying to keep their composures together in the background. 'T-then Avery sleeps with you?' He asked. Looking at me again with those darn puppy eyes. 'Awwwwww. Of course you can buddy! Did you take a shower yet? Wait. It doesn't matter. I didn't take a shower myself. I replied back. Smiling at him.

I signalled for Jake and Cason to get out while i laid Avery down on my bed. 'Thank you for caring so much about me Avery.. it really means a lot.' I said. Giving him a kiss on the cheeks. He sniffed again and hugged me tightly. Which reminded me of what I would always do to my stuff animal when I was a kid. 'I got a surprise for you later. I whispered in his ear, but to no avail, he was already sound asleep. 'I guess school today really drained you huh?' I whispered to myself. As I pulled him closer towards me.
