Harry Styles's P.O.V

"Hey little brother!" Edward greets, walking over to me and wrapping a long arm around my shoulders patronizingly.

Ed is six foot four and towers over both me and Marcel, who are average five foot eleven. Alex is six foot even being the only one big enough to force him to stop whatever he is doing. It would take both Marcel and me to subdue Ward we only slow him down. Tattoos mostly cover his arms from the shoulder down, and top torso. I can't complain too much since Edward doesn't have many piercings.

Two little silver studs are all my oldest brother in regards to holes in his body.

"Hi." My voice flattens in annoyance, "Not so happy to see me huh brother?" Ed fakes hurt removing his arm from around my shoulders and placing it onto his heart.

"You have been MIA for over a week I was expecting a dead body to show up at my door." I admit turning around to face the eldest Styles, "Mom had people out looking for you, I told her it was a waste of time. For you would show up whenever you felt like it." venom drips from my teeth.

"I'm hurt by that Hazza if you went missing, I would go looking for you." Ward leans backward, his hand remaining over his heart.

"Sure you would if you weren't out banging some poor girl." I huff, "Is that what you think about me?" My older brother starts to pout.

"Ya, it is, till a burning bush shows up in the middle of my room telling me you're going to change I don't frankly believe it." I spit, "I have to go to school bye." I pack a simple sandwich I made the night before.

Gathering up a bottle of water and my books, I head out the door leaving my twin to ponder on what I said.

Getting to the bus stop in time a little part of guilt pokes at me. Maybe I was a little rash, but everything I said is true. If Edward doesn't like it he can either change or shut up. That is how my whole childhood into adulthood relationship has been with him ever since I was born. All that has changed is my willing to put up with Ed's impure acts.

I remember when our mother got sick and I stayed home taking care of her. All my brother did was ran off for a month and a half, our dad searched everywhere for him! Dad almost got killed by a local gang looking for his eldest son! Anytime after that, I haven't been so forgiving and blind to Ward's acts of brotherly love. One day it will come to bite him back for all the wrong he has done.

My thoughts get forced away as the bus approaches just on time, the doors part in front of me. Jumping onto the top step, I walk inside the public transport. I keep my backpack tightly held against me for a form of protection from the many stares. Traveling silently to the back of this transit, I take a seat next to a window. Sliding my pack off my shoulder, I place it sideways between my knees.

Our transporter sinks as more teenagers enter, I wiggle closer to the window hoping to ignore them. Only it's very hard to when they are yelling and carrying on like savages. My hands shake as I curl them into tight balls trying to control a strong urge boiling up inside. The couples sit down in pairs continue to talk only a little using a more inside voice. I take a deep inhale and a slow exhale as I uncurl my fists.
