Weightless (All Time Low)

Hold On 'Til May

A.G.

Shitshitshitshit.
Nate's gone and now I'm freaking out.
I don't even know the kid well, but he was pretty fucking rad.
Viv isn't talking, she's just biting her nails anxiously and looking out the window.
And of fucking course we have to hit a series of red lights.

"Just fucking drive through them, the streets are empty. I want my fucking brother back." Viv says angrily, looking as if she's ready to kill everyone in sight. I speed up, going through all of the red lights.
"Stop." She says quickly.
I slam on the brakes, causing us to jerk forward. Viv throws open the door, running out of the car and running towards a house quickly.
"LET HIM OUT, YOU BASTARD!" She shouts, slamming on the door.
A man about my height opens the door, smiling evilly at her. I walk up to the door, motioning for Tyler to follow behind slowly.
"Back the fuck up from her or I'll kick your ass." I snap at the man at the door, who took a step toward Viv.
He smirks at me, and I turn my head to mouth Dial 911 at Tyler. The man starts shouting at me, but I can't understand him. I watch Viv put her hands to her face and that's when I see a bruised Nate standing in the doorway. Nate dashes out of the house and into Tyler's arms; I watch as the man takes Viv inside, causing me to scream her name.

"The police have him in jail, Viv is at the station." Tyler says.
"She's okay?" I ask, looking up at him.
"She's okay," Tyler confirms.
"I fucking hate that guy, how the hell am I his son?" Tyler adds.
"Y'know, Ty, he's away now." I reply.
"You think I don't get that? Before anyone else came into the house he was so normal, once mom got pregnant and had mood swings he began to get pissed at her and drink every night. When Nate was born dad took all of his anger out on mom, then when Nate was old enough, dad started to abuse Nate. Our family adopted Viv when Nate turned five, thinking another girl in the house would calm dad down. My father beat Nate and Viv senseless, I was just there, watching and waiting. I couldn't do anything. He would force me to watch by tying me up and setting me on the couch. You don't know how hard it was to watch Viv and Nate get beaten until they passed out every day. It's my fault this all happened, I acted out when mom got pregnant and dad was mad at me, so he drank. His drinking lead to drunk beatings on my mother. Beatings on my mother turned into emotional abuse to me, neglect and verbal abuse. After verbally abusing me, he turned to four-year-old Nate. Then we adopted Viv and he turned on her." Tyler says, tear streaming down his face afterwards.
"I'm sorry you had to go through all of that, Tyler. You seem to be a strong guy and I know you'll be able to move on from the past. Look forward to the future, don't dwell on things that may have happened then." I reply, giving Tyler a bro-hug. He nods and smiles through his tears, sniffling a little bit.
"Let's go get Viv." He says, and I follow him out the door.
