Brandon POV

I've noticed a change in Jeremy he seems more quiet than he usually is. He spends days alone trapping himself in his bunk isolating himself away from everyone. I always ask him if he's ok and he always responds with "I'm fine" this biggest lie anyone could tell. And it hurts....it hurts to see my brother like this.

"Maybe you should talk to him Brandon" suggested Ash
"I've tried Ash but he pushes me away and isolates himself, I've even noticed he's wearing longer sleeves now I don't even wanna imagine what he's been doing" I responded.

"Oh god what am I supposed to do guys?!" I said as my voice began to break, I sat down on the couch running my hands in my hair. Nikki sat down next to me and pulled me into a hug.
"It'll be ok" he whispered but I highly doubt it.

"Why don't us three go out for a couple of hours....maybe he'll talk to you then when we're not around" suggested Trixx.
"I can try" I muttered
"Good luck" said Ash walking over kissing the top of my head before they all left leaving me and Jeremy alone.

I turned around and decided to head to the bunks. I paused in my tracks as I head sniffles like someone had been crying. I walked over to Jeremy's bunk before opening the curtain.

Jeremy was lying in a ball, makeup smudged around his eyes and tears falling down his face. "Make some room" I said.
Jeremy knew I wasn't going to leave until I got an answer. He knew that from experience from when we were younger he was even the same for me always stubborn when I wouldn't tell him why I'm upset or if something was bothering me.

He shuffled back a little leaving me space to climb into the bunk. I climbed in before lying down and turning to face him. "Come on Jer what's wrong?" I asked, I hate seeing him like this.

"I.....I feel so alone" he started
"I feel like....no one even notices when I'm around and it makes me wonder does anyone actually give a shit about me?" He continued.

"I sound so selfish and stupid!" He began to cry, covering his face with his sleeves harshly wiping away his tears causing him to smudge his makeup more.
"You don't sound stupid but you're wrong" I responded.

"W-what do you mean?" He asked
"Well....the guys are worried about you, they know that something is not right and there worried, we're all worried.....look at Ash she absolutely adores you and is always wanting to talk to you to make sure that your ok and Nikki fucking loves you! We haven't been in the band for that long and Nikki sees you as his best friend....the guys love you Jer and I hate seeing my brother like this"

Jeremy was silent hugging his own body as he started to take in what I said. "Yeah...,yeah you're right....I'm sorry" he muttered.
"Wanna come out the bunk and watch some movies?" I suggested.
Jeremy nodded his head wiping the tears away before I climbed out the bunk with Jeremy following behind.

I turned round and watched as he climbed out the bunk before standing in front of me "come here" I whispered before wrapping my arms around him. He gripped onto my shirt, burying his head in the embrace before we pulled away "the smudged makeup is a good look on you"
"Shut up" he chuckled showing the smile we haven't seen in a long time before heading into the bus lounge.

We were in the middle of watching a movie when Ash, Nikki and Trixx came back. "Hey you're out the bunk!" Cheered Trixx
"Yeah I came out my nest" chuckled Jeremy who seemed more happier than before maybe he realised that I was right and that they all care for him he just didn't realise it.

"You ok?" Asked Ash
Jeremy nodded his head "y-yeah I'm sorry that I haven't been myself over the last couple of days" he apologised although he didn't need to.
"Hey it's ok" responded Ash.
"Jeremy is back!" Cheered Nikki running over pulling Jeremy into a tight hug. Jeremy laughed before patting his back before Nikki pulled away.

Everyone decided to sit down to join in watching the movie something that we usually did every night but it hasn't really been the same because Jeremy had been hiding away in his bunk, so it was great to have him back.
"Brandon?"
"Yeah?" I asked looking at him
"Thank you" he said giving a soft smile.
I gave a soft smile in return before placing my arms over Jeremy's shoulder and pulling him closer to me. Jeremy placed his head on my shoulder before looking up at me with a smile.

It was great to have my brother back.
