"What are you doing here?" Ashton stood up once he saw Liam walking to Luke's grass and looking at Ashton.
"Ashton."
"Don't even start, I don't want to talk to you." Ashton spat.
"I have a lot to tell you. Just give me-"
"No."
"I'm afraid I have to." Liam couldn't be nice anymore. He walked to Ashton until they were standing infront of each other and his eyes didnt showed regret anymore.
"Come with me."
"You promised to leave me alone-"
"I want to keep my promise but I can't just.. I have to tell you everything."
"What else is there to tell?"
"You won't like most of it but there's things your parents asked me to do-"
"Don't talk about them."
"Ashton-"
"Just leave." Ashton took a step back.
"One day with me. It'll be hard and you will get angry a lot but we can work on that too." Liam spoke softly,
Ashton stayed silent, feeling the warmth tingling in his fingertips. He was still mad at Luke and leaving seemed good right now.
And he wanted to know everything, even if he couldn't hold it.
"Ashton."
"I don't know." He looked at him.
He walked back when he felt his body starting to burn, trying not to get angry.
"Ashton I can help you control those powers."
"Let it out slowly, its like releasing some of your strenght." Liam walked closer to him.
"Just inhale, don't hold your breath," Liam kept explaining.
"I think staying away from him will make it stop." Luke walked out of the house.
"He has to-"
"You're doing it to him. The trigger is anger."
"Ashton," Liam turned his gaze back to Ashton.
"We're brothers. If we won't stick to each other-"
"Don't." Ashton glared at him now.
"We're not family Liam, family won't do what you did."
"Family will do anything to protect each other."
"You coming?" Liam asked after a few moments of silence.
Ashton nodded and Liam smiled. He walked inside to take shoes and Luke followed him inside.
****
Ashton was silent and so as Liam as they walked side by side down the street. Liam had so much to say but now when Ashton was finally ready to listen to him, he didn't knew from where to begin.
"Your mother was your real mother."
"I don't know why during the years Ben raised you like you were his son but he did."
"I wanted to tell you all of those years but I didn't knew if you were an immortal as well. I knew for sure that we share the same father but I didn't knew how you turned out to be."
"So how did you know?" Ashton spoke for the first time.
"When they separated us from our parents, and we were living under the same roof I took s sample of your blood and took it outside for a friend to check."
"You can't just sense it?"
"No,"
"Luke said he sensed something different in my blood."
"That's because he's a vampire. Their crave for blood is what makes them sharp."
"About Luke," Liam spoke after a minute of silent, "Is he forcing you to stay?"
"Not anymore." Ashton shoke his head.
"I think you should leave. You can come stay with me-"
"I greed to talk to you Liam, not to forgive you."
"I know. But Luke? I don't see a good ending to that."
"Neither am I."
"Ashton please-"
"Just drop it, I'm not coming to stay with you.
"Okay," Liam pursed his lips, "I don't know how much Luke's know, but he can't know about you and the fact he is, is bad."
"Why?"
"Because he's a vampire Ashton, they can't be trusted."
"So as immortals."
Liam stopped walking and grabbed Ashton shoulders, facing and glaring at him.
"I'm seriouse Ashton, stop acting out and listen to me."
"What else?" Ashton sighed.
"You need to learn how to control your powers and stay low. Forever."
"How do I control them?"
"Its mainly through your feeilng. But its not just about restraining them them, its mostly about channel them."
Liam then jumped out of the road and started walking toward the trees line but Ashton didn't follow. He stood and stared at his back until Liam turned to look at him.
"Come on,"
"Last time I walked into the woods, I got attacked by a wolf."
"Well now you're with me so you'll be fine."
"Maybe we should just stay on the road."
"Ashton don't worry." Liam urged and Ashton gave up. He walked after him and let him lead them deeper into the woods.
"It'll be fine."
Its was already getting darker outside and Liam kept leading them in the woods, looking like he had a specific spot he wanted to get to.
"Where are we going?"
"I have something to show you."
"Today?" Ashton looked over his shoulder.
"Yes. You'de like it, I'm sure."
"I thought I agreed on talking." Ashton said and Liam smiled.
