Flashbacks (Sequel to From A broken home )

I'm back

"Come on, talk to me" Austin said following me as I was walking away. I didn't answer, I just kept walking with my arms hugging my sides. He sighed and jogged so he was in front of me.

"I'm sorry okay? I know what I said was wrong and I shouldn't have tried to push you so hard to do something that you didn't want to do" he apologized.

I looked up at him, my eyes glassy with tears. I don't know what to do. I mean he is here, apologizing. Which is better than Adam is trying to do. "I I forgive you" you said, my throat still cracking as I tried not to cry.

He smiled and opened his arms for a hug. I shuffled forward into his arms and let him hug me. "I promise I won't ever try to force you to do something you feel uncomfortable with again. I'm so so sorry y/n" he whispered.

I nodded my head as a signal that I agreed. "I-" I started.

"What the hell are you doing here?" We heard voice yell across the lot. He immediately let go of me and whipped his head towards the source of noise. When I had cleared my eyes of the tears, I could see who it was. It was a very angry Adam who was getting closer by the second. We both just stared side by side at my approaching brother unable to form any sentence.

"I thought I told you I didn't want you here Jacob. Y/n come over here, you don't have to talk to him" he said reaching for my arm to pull me away.

I had finally snapped out of my daze and realized how this must've looked. I pulled my arm out of his grasp "No Adam it's okay-"

"Okay? I know you don't remember anything, but what that man did to you was not okay" he said raising his voice.

"I know what Jacob did to me. But you don't understand-" I said.

"Don't understand-" He said, but this time I got to interrupted him.

"Yes you don't. That's what I said isn't it?" I said raising my voice over his. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes for a second before adding in a calmer voice "This is not Jacob. This is his twin, Austin."

Adams face turned from mine to Austins.

"I know I should've contacted you in a better way, but I ran out of ideas. I could've just walked in there and introduced myself as myself. Not calling you on Jacobs' phone" Austin explained.

I know I should've tried to keep from laughing, and I did. Kinda. I just couldn't help it, I was already in a state so I found everything funny. "Wait so you called my brother on his phone" I asked when I had stopped laughing, which wasn't hard.

He smiled and rubbed the back of his neck "Yeah, like I said not my best plan"

"It really wasn't" I agreed.

"Look I ran out of ideas and I was desperate" he pleaded.

"And why did you have to see us so badly" Adam asked. I see he was out of his shock, and embarrassment, of think that he was Jacob.

"Um I thought y/n had a right to know that my brother is on trial. And I wanted her to testify but she didn't. I was just apologizing for trying to force her" Austin explained. He was so much more mature than his brother.

"Is he really? That's amazing" Adam said smiling.

Austin gave a weak smile. It is his brother so I understand that he wouldn't use the word 'amazing' to describe it. But I also know that he wants his brother put away.
