Lucky Number Seven

Tyson 57

The look on Tion's face scared me, the way he said 'Tyson I can't let you do that.' scared me, but what scared me the most was the pain in his eyes. Tion really cared deeply for Seven and I knew that this would destroy there relationship. But on the other hand Seven had to know I couldn't, live with this anymore. I felt like shit everyday for the way I treated Seven and this was the first step in making things right. Tion sat there looking like his mind was going a hundred miles a minute. Tion was so nervous that his hands were shaking, Tion didn't want to have to deal with this. But he had to be adults and accept the consequences for our actions.

"Tion I know you don't want me to tell him but, I have to I owe him that much. And no matter how much we try and down play what happened we can't." I said trying to get him to look me in the eyes.

"You don't understand." Tion said barely above a whisper.

"What don't I understand Tion?" I asked. He looked up at me with glossed over eyes.

"I........ he can't found out. I love Seven more than you know that's my fuckin heart, my best friend, my baby bro. I raised that lil nigga, I taught his ass how to go piss in the toilet, how to say his ABC's, how to ride bike, how to pick up girls, how to play football, basketball, hell I even taught his ass to play baseball. I was there when you broke up with him that nigga broke down in my arms, crying talking bout 'T, man I fucked up bad.' I was always there for Seven then I betray his trust by fucking you, then to make matters worse I'm letting this dude walk around thinking it's Dallas. Tyson he can't find out, it would fucking kill him. Man I should've just left when I had the chance."

"Well you didn't, I didn't force you to stay Tion, I didn't force you to kiss me back, I didn't force you to do anything. So tell me Tion why didn't you leave, why did you let it go as far as it did? Why did............................"

"I was curious aight. I wanted to know what it was about you that had my little brothers mind so fucked up that he stopped eating, stopped sleeping, stopped having a fuckin life. So I tried to find out. And yeah I could've left, but I didn't and now we're in this fucked up situation."

"Tion I gotta tell him." I said looking him in the eyes.

"Why do keep on hurting him more Tyson? Do you get a pleasure outta seeing my brother in pain? Cuz I starting to think you do." I could tell Tion was getting more and more pissed off but I really didn't care anymore, I had to make things right. I think Tion saw it in my eyes that my mind was made up. He sighed and sat back in his seat.

"So I guess your minds made up huh?" Tion said with his arms crossed.

"Yes I going to tell him tonight?" I said. Tion sat up shocked.

"Nah, nah you can't tell him tonight. Tonight is my going away party there's not going to be any chance for you to talk to him. If your going to tell him at last wait until I leave." Tion said.

"I'll think about it Tion but I can't live with this anymore. If I don't tell him soon I'm going to explode."

"I think I should be the one to tell him though. I mean he's already pissed at you and if you tell him he might just try and kill you, let me talk to him." Tion said.

"No I'll tell him, that way like you said he'll take his anger out on me, think of it as my way of apologizing to you as well." I stood up to leave and Tion stood up as well.

"Tyson please don't say anything let me do it and if I chicken out you can deal?" Tion asked.

"Okay you have to tell him tonight though."
