Ticking with Love (Ticci-Toby x reader)

Ch. 17

     I was walking to school when I heard my name being called by a male voice, a very familiar one. I knew instantly that it was Mark.
      "Y/n! Hey! Over here!"
      "Hold on little potato I'm coming!" I shouted back walking towards him.
       Today was Tuesday, I take a quick look at my classes for school quickly.

I looked up at Mark and put the list away. He looks back at me and shows a friendly smile.
"Hey I have to tell you something very important." He says, his expression turns into a serious one.
Next to him was Ace, of course, he winked and gave a flirty smile.
"Did you know we're brothers?" Mark says, his serious gaze turning into a playful smile.
I stand there gaping and quickly close my mouth. I look at Ace, then Mark, then Ace, and then Mark.
They both chuckle, Mark putting his hands on his head.
"Wha- Ace why would you stick with Bob then?!" I shout in a whisper.
He sighs and glides his fingers through his blue, silky, hair.
"Well, friendly Bob was a childhood friend. We would always stick with each other and help others... He was really nice back then, really friendly and stuff like that."
I raised an eyebrow but it suddenly turned to confusion.
"How'd he change?" I asked standing straight.
"Well, when we both were 9, Bob kinda fell for a girl although she wasn't as pretty as you." He whispered the last part,"He asked her out but she rejected him and kicked him to the ground, started bullying him. I dunno... something just clicked in his head and he started yelling at her and punching her. He damaged her badly and she kinda had to go to a hospital quickly.
Her mom told his dad about what happened and his dad started lashing out at him. His dad hated him so much that he sent him to a freaking adoption center and Bob never saw his dad again. His mom died in a car crash when he was 3 and the sad part is, he was in the car.
His mom punched the window and it broke, then she told him to run far away. He looked back and well, saw the car explode.
No one came to help because they were driving in the woods back from a little vacation.
His dad was on a business trip and kept blaming Bob for her death. He went threw so much..." Ace looked down and started kicking the ground.
"His dad then started abusing him before he sent him to the adoption center.
Some nice people came and picked him up and they all lived happily, no disruptions. But Bob was never the same again. He was always rude to everyone and he made me and Billy his henchmen. We took orders from him because if we didn't, he would beat us up.
Onetime I didn't want to hurt you, and he locked me in his locker for the rest of the night and left. Luckily the janitor found me but I have to admit his locker is pretty smelly.
Billy was Bobs best friend too. He just took orders from him so he didn't end up like me, getting beat up a lot.
I hated seeing you cry when we bullied you. We were all so young too. I can't believe I followed him..."
I went next to Ace and pat him on the back, giving him a reassuring smile.
     "That must've been so hard to go through y/n. There was one time I turned fully away from him but this happened."
     He pulled his sleeve up revealing a large burn.
    "Oh my gosh." I said sadly,"I didn't know Bob went through all that. I feel so bad for him..."
     Ace sighs, turning away and I hug him. He looked at me surprised but I just stayed still, closing my eyes.
    Mark joins us making it warmer. I smile and so do the two brothers.
    'Hopefully Toby didn't do anything too bad to them.' I thought. Not knowing Toby went beyond and full on murdered them.
     "We should go to class." I say, looking up at the tall boys.
     "Yup your right. Let's go." Mark says and we all walk together, still hugging.
