The Same - Janoskians/Luke and Jai Brooks Fanfic

Chapter 2 - Sharing Secrets

Jai's POV

I woke up feeling like absolute shit, again. Ever since I turned 18, which was like a week ago, i've been really down and just angry a lot. Another thing I can add to the 'I have no I idea why' list.

I made my way to the kitchen, not to be greeted by the smell of pancakes, or the bright face of my mother, no. I was greeted by mum and Beau, sitting on the couch, fear in mums eyes, and confusion in Beau's. "Jai." She said politely. "You may want to sit down." I walked over and sat next to my brother. "What's going-" "Shh! If I knew I would tell you." He hissed.

Mum cleared her throat. "Boys, I just got some news, some, strange, strange news." I gulped, this wasn't good, the tone of her voice told me something was up. "You know how your father, my husband left us?" Beau tensed beside me, so I patted him on the back. "Calm down." I whispered, his shoulders lowering at the tone of my voice, but his jaw was still clenched together.

"He didn't exactly leave, ugh, how do I say this?" She paused. "Empty handed." I stayed quiet. I was expecting her to say we were millionares and he took shit loads of our money, and that's why we were, and still kinda are, struggling.

But no, sadly, it was worse than that.

She reached out and grabbed my hands. "Jai, you have to promise me you won't be upset, okay?" I nodded, shaking slightly. "O-Okay." She looked down. "Your father left us taking something, well, someone." She trailed off. "Jai, you know how you're sensitive to the word twin?" I cringed at the word. "Have you ever wondered why?" I nodded, I obviously have.

She looked at us both. "He took your brother boys." I felt a lump in my throat. This couldn't be happening, this can't be happening. "But, not just your brother Jai." She sighed, running her hands through her hair. "He took your twin Jai," My heart stopped. "And I let him."

Luke's POV

"FUCK!" Dad screamed, kicking me again and again. "SHE KNOWS YOU EXSIST! SHE REMEMBERS YOU! FUCK!" As he was about to kick me again, I grabbed his foot and stopped him. "WHO!" I screamed back, slowly standing up. He was shocked, totally stunned that I had stood up against him.

He punched me so hard I fell back down again. "I DIDN'T ASK YOU TO SPEAK YA' FUCKING DOG!" I kept my mouth shut. "And as for WHO knows your petty exsistence, your bitch of a mother!" I felt a lump in my throat. "W-What?" I whispered, kneeling so I wasn't exactly lying down at his mercy.

He sighed. "I don't know how she was even able to contact me, let along talk me into saying you were still here with me, all grown up and 'okay'!" I rolled my eyes at the last thing he said. "And I couldn't lie to her, I still love her I just had to leave, having Beau was a handful, then you and Jaidon came along and I just couldn't do it anymore! I needed out."

I stared at him, tears were threatening to spill. "Who are Beau and J-Jaidon?" I asked quietly. He looked at me, almost with sympathy. "Your brothers." The gentleness in his voice made my break down in tears. He crouched down next to me, and as he was thrusting his hand towards me I screamed. "PLEASE, NOT NOW, PLEASE!"

His hand jerked back, tears building up in his eyes. "You're actually that scared of me, you won't even let me hug you?" I swallowed the lump in my throat, and crawled away slowly, my crumpled body aching all over. "ANSWER ME!" He shouted, punching me in the gut several times.

He suddenly backed away, staring at me, fear in his eyes? "What?" I mumbled. He fell to his knees just beside me, wiping away the blood spilling out of my mouth. "Why did I just do that?" I stayed quiet and looked down. Scissors appeared in his hands, and I burst out in tears yet again. "N-NO! NOT AGAIN!" I pleaded.

Pain rose in his eyes as he looked at me, not cutting me, not inflicting pain, but cutting my bloodied t-shirt. He pulled it off and looked at all the bruises, the cuts the scars, as I stayed crumpled up in the corner. "Luke i'm... i'm so s-sorry." He stuttered, forcing me to turn around, studying the huge scar on my back.

I was then rolled back over, a knife now in dads hand, and him looking carefully at my torso. "Dad." I mumbled quietly. "What are you-" I stopped talking as I felt a searing pain in my stomach. I looked down and saw my father, my flesh and blood, carving into my skin with a knife.

I screamed out in pain, something i've been doing too much lately. I tried to grab the knife from him but stopped trying, the pain was just too bad. "DAD!" I yelped, squirming and sweating. "PLEASE STOP!" I let out another blood curdling scream. After what seemed like ages, he took away the pressure and stared at me sadly. "You'll be free of me in a couple of days Luke." I squinted my eyebrows, tears rolling out of my eyes freely. He has to be bipolar, he HAS to be. I looked down at my torso and could make out what he carved into my skin.

"No more." I said curiously, looking up at him. "What do you mean?" He shook his head and picked me up, my head resting into his neck. He has never been so nice and affectionate, I was actually liking this. He took me to the bathroom and began to fix me up, but left the 'no more' carved into my skin, so it would scar. "So you know forever this will happen no more, I promise." He said, smiling down at me. I wanted to say thankyou, but I just couldn't bring myself to it, not yet anyway.

Jai's POV

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU LET HIM?!" Beau screamed, standing up, shaking with rage. "YOU LET HIM TAKE AWAY MY LITTLE BROTHER, JAI'S TWIN!" I felt bile rising as he said this. I wanted to yell, I wanted to be angry, but the look on mums face I just, couldn't. She looked to guilty and upset.

"HOW COULD YOU!" Beau's voice was shaky, and he was trembling with rage. "Beau, calm down." Mum said calmly, standing up and putting a hand on his shoulder to stop him from pacing around the room. "Please, just hear me out." He sat back down next to me. "Go on." He mumbled, still pissed off.

"Your father, he was difficult, but I did love him a lot, and that's why I married him ." She began. "But then Beau was born, and that's when the trouble began." I glanced at Beau, who's face was blank but his eyes said it all. He was guilty, and was blaming it all on himself. "Your father, Rick is his name, began to change. He was angry a lot, and used to take it out on me, never hitting me, just shouting a lot." She sighed.

"Then the twins came along, and he got really bad then. He bacame bipolar, and started beating me, as well as the verbal abuse too." Beau let out a little yelp, probably remembering a little. "I can't." He mumbled, starting to stand up, but me pulling him back down. "NO JAI FUCK OFF!" He shoved me away and was getting even more angry. "IMAGINE HIM RIGHT NOW MUM, ALL GROWN UP WITH A FATHER, WHO IS ABUSIVE AND BIPOLAR! HOW COULD YOU! HOW COULD YOU LET HIM GROW UP LIKE THAT? IMAGINE HOW FUCKING SHIT LIFE WOULD BE FOR HIM! GOD I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS, I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU RIGHT NOW!"

Beau sat back down, shaking with rage. I was now getting angry, processing everything Beau had said, realising it was all true. "Carry on." Beau mumbled. Mum sighed, staying strong, and continued with the story. "So, just after Jai and his twins birthday-" "JUST TELL US HIS NAME FOR FUCKS SAKE MUM!" I snapped, giving her a glare. She looked startled, and then burst into tears. "Y-You sounded s-so much like h-him!" She cried, burrying her head in her hands.

I went and sat next to her. "Mum, what's his name, and when can we see him." I just now wanted answers. "Yeah, forget about the past, all we should be worrying about is our long lost brother." Beau added, smiling warmly at mum. She took one look at him, and started crying even harder. Beau was shocked and took a step back. "Sorry." He mumbled, looking down. She stood up and hugged him. "Sorry honey you j-just look so much like him." She sniffed, breaking away from the hug.

She looked at me and smiled warmly. "We're flying to London in a few-" Beau screamed so loudly I swear a window could have broken. "LONDON? LONDON?! FUCKING HOT CHICKS WITH ACCENTS AND SNOW YES!" Mum giggled. "Language." Beau smirked. "Yeah mum they speak English too!" He replied cheekily, winking. "Anyway, as I said before we'll be flying to London in a few days and meeting him, then taking him home." I sighed. "His name mum." She looked at me. "Jaidon Domenic Brooks, you will be meeting your twin brother, Luke Anthony Mark Brooks for the first time very soon."
