"Baby I can't be what you want me to be..." Don't Leave ft. Ellie Goulding~Seven Lions
I ran out of the hospital.
"(F/N)!!" Tadashi said, I ignored him. I had to but there was one person I couldn't ignore. I ran down the halls trying to find the exit, but through my blind fury I was looking for someone. Someone I knew.
"B-Brandon!" I said. Suddenly I hit something hard Brandon was knocked onto the floor the same time as me. I came closer to him.
"I think I know who did it!" I said happy that I had good news for him. His blank expression morphed into something I'd never seen. Pure hatred.
"Yeah, it was YOU! If I hadn't been talking to you I could've protected Skylar. She would still be alive! But you got in my way!!!" He screamed. I stared at him shocked. No one had ever yelled at me that way no one had ever blamed me for someone else's death. No one. Brandon grabbed the collar of my shirt and raised me up, I let him, I was limp. "You killed her, you put my brother's in the ER. This is all your fault!" He growled.
"(F/-" I heard Tadashi screaming my name. He had stopped abruptly, then I had dropped. Brandon stood on the floor across from me and Tadashi stood above him. He had punched him. Tadashi had punched Brandon. "(F/N) are you okay?" He looked at me worried.
"I'm fine. But Brandon-"
"Is a jerk, did he hurt you?" He asked. I shook my head. Brandon slowly got up and his eyes met mine and then he stormed off. Why, why did I just make things worse for me?
"I'm sorry." I whispered to the Brandon that wasn't there.
"How'd you get here?" Tadashi asked. His hands gripped my shoulders shaking me. I was in a daze. I shook my head.
"Limo. My dad." I muttered. He laughed.
"I came with Aunt Cass." He said. We both walked towards the entrance/exit, his hand wrapped protectively around my waist.

Two days. Two days since I'd spoken to Brandon, since Haru had a relapse into mayhem. Two days since I had clarity, I used that computer after hours of wondering if it was safe. Finally I took a chance and turned the thing on.
That man had been true to his word. Quickly I had accustomed myself to this laptop. I searched up my parents names and everything came up. Everything. A family picture I remember so clearly came up, I blinked back the tears.
I was scrolling through the history of my family when a thought popped in my head. I searched up the murder case of my parents and brother. Although they didn't die at the same time, I was positive that they were linked. Who wanted my family dead?
There was a long list of possible suspects. The most suspected were never even cleared, they just dropped the case. My fists clenched. One was the clerk who checked us in, another had been labeled as a staff worker who had found their bodies and us, and the last was a man of never hear of. AK. He was never officially a suspect but he had been a competitor of my fathers business.
AK. I'd never heard of that name. There was no picture, no contacts, no background. The man was nothing. Was he the one who'd shot my parents, set that orphanage on fire, killed Skylar?...
I clenched my fists. AK I'd have to remember that. AK...AK...

I stared at the stuff out in the living room. We were leaving for London, and despite what had happened Brandon had not dropped out of the vacation. I was still nervous about going back to the hospital.
"Hi!" I had never been so happy. Makoto. I had face timed him, he was still in the hospital.
"How are you? You were in the ER when I came last so I couldn't see you." I said.
"Yeah, I'm good. It just hurts a little when I take big breaths."
The color drained from my face.
"I'm sorry." I said.
"What? This?" He asked. Making a cross across his chest. I nodded looking away.
"Yes. You have that because of me." I said.
"No I don't. I chose myself to protect Skylar, and even though she's gone and I'm here doesn't mean it's your fault."
"I wish I was there." I said.
"Why aren't you?" He asked. I looked away from the camera. "Why? (F/N)!" He said. I turned.
"brandon." I said quietly.
"Oh."
"He blames me for killing his girlfriend and hurting you both. And I believe him." I thought I'd keep it a secret but here I was telling him.
"Really? That idiot!" A new voice said. The camera swerved away from Makoto'd face and focused on another familiar face.
"Yeah, I can't believe he did that." Makoto said.
"Trust me. He's gonna get an earful from the both of us!" Haru said. I smiled.
"I don't think you need to do that." I said.
"Yes we do. He's scaring you away, that I will not tolerate." Haru countered. I shook my head.
"I invited him to London, and hasn't said he won't go."
Both boys were silent.
"That sneaky bastard!!!" Haru screamed. I laughed.
"I'm coming." He said. I stopped.
"What?" Makoto and me said.
"Yes, I'll come so I can make sure he doesn't make a fool of himself by hurting you." I raised a brow.
"It's fine. Tadashi's coming." I said.
"Yep, I'm coming." Haru said. "I'm gonna go pack now. BYE (F/N)!!" He said leaving the frame of the camera.
I sighed.
"Idiot." Makoto said. I laughed.
"He just wants to be with you. That's all." He said.
"I don't think that's it."
"But he's wasn't lying about Brandon. Even if it was uncalled for he's mad at you, Haru has a right to worry about you. I am too." He said turning a little red.
"It's like the last time I got hurt, you guys were such pushovers." I teased.
"We were not!" He said.
"Makoto?! You okay, I heard you just came out of the ER how––who are you talking to?" A voice said.
"No one." Makoto replied. Before Makoto could hide the phone it was ripped away from him, the camera settled on Brandon.
"Why the hell are you talking to him? You ruined his life, stop trying to make it seem like you care."
"BRANDON! Give it back!" Makoto said.
"Leave him and Haru alone. I never wanna see your face again." And with that the call ended.
