Nat's POV (brads sister)
Brads been crying in his room for over three hours and he's been singing the same song over and over again. Mum told me to leave him alone and let him calm down and if he needs us he'll come down but its been three hours.
I decided to tell our mum I'm going to my room but on the way to my room I hear something smash in brads room and even louder sobbing. I walk in to see my younger brother sitting on the floor with red puffy eyes and pieces of glass around him sobbing into his hands.
He looks up once I step in the room. "Go away" he sternly says but I know he's breaking down just like when our Nan died. What has happened to him.
Instead of leaving I walked over to him and ingulfed him with a hug. He just sat there and sobbed into my chest. I try and try to calm him down but his sobs just get louder and louder.
"Do you want to talk about it maybe it will help" I ask stroking his curls like I used to do when we where younger and he fell and hurt himself.
He nodded but looked hesitant to tell me.
"I'm gay"he stated. "Is that what your crying about Brad do you like mum and dad will disown you or something because they won't they'll love you no matter what sexuality you are"I replied.
He shook his head. "I didn't finish" he implied. I nod to guesture to carry on.
"Well there's this guy in school called Connor Ball and he's the geek of the school and he is someone who James, Tris and I used to bully but things started to changed. I started liking him and hating seeing him in pain, I asked James to stop but he didn't he punched and kicked him until he blacked out. I offered to take him home and I found out he self harms because of us, my heart shattered knowing that he was hurting himself because of me. We kissed and I enjoyed it and so did he, we hung out more and got closer it was going well. Until today when I asked him to be my boyfriend and he ran off and left me alone in the streets." He sobbed harder.
"Oh Brad its gonna be okay I promise maybe he just needs time if he loves you he'll come back and if he doesn't it was never meant to be" I kiss his curls and sit there cuddling my little brother for at least another two hours.
So I decided you should all see what Brad is like from a different view and not gonna lie I did shed I tear writing that chapter I hope you all like it and there will be a knew one out soon
