Brothers Best Friend❁ A Joe Sugg FanFic

Zoe's POV
A police officer opened the door as I stood up out of bed.
I had just a been discharged, but had no idea how I was going to get out.
I tried calling my mum and dad, but no answer. So instead I turned my brother.
I left him a voice mail as the officers patiently waited.
"Sorry about that..." I smiled.
"So I'm here to get your statement and Marcus' about the night you were attacked"
"I didn't say I was attacked?"
"Okay, well then maybe you can explain the bruises and Marcus' broken bones?" he pulled out a pen and notepad.
I remembered it clearly.

I impatiently banged on Marcus and Alex's apartment door.
"Open up!" Marcus opened the door smiling.
"Where is she!" I ran in pushing past Marcus.
"What's wrong with you, Zoe?" Marcus said calmly.
"I need to find her, she destroyed me, she destroyed Joe!"
"What are you talking about?"
I pulled him into the kitchen and hold onto him as I breathed in and then out again.
The backdoor opened and within seconds Marcus was on the floor and a guy with a mask was hitting and hitting him, before I could move or even scream I was also attacked and knocked out.
After that I remembered nothing.

I told him everything, everything I could remember.
He left and with that I limped out searching for Joe.
He's so useless, sometimes I wish he wasn't so like himself.
I followed the corridor down to the exit leading to the lift.
I pressed the button for the lift and waited while the number at the top went from ground floor, all the way to the top and then my floor.
I took the lift down and went to find Marcus' room to see if Joe was there.
I opened the door and saw Marcus getting up and standing.
"Marc!" I rushed over to him.
He fell towards me as I caught him.
"What are you doing?"
"Alex sent me this voicemail" he got his phone out and got the voicemail up.
"Hey M, I just wanted you to know that whatever happens you are the most important person in my life and I'd do anything to keep you safe and to protect you. I have gotten myself into something I don't regret but will do very very soon. I'm down the police station and I'll see you later, bye Love you"
I frown and watch Marcus sweat with worry.
"Can you take me to the police station?"
"We will have to get a taxi, but maybe Joe is down there with her?"
"Why would he?"
"Don't ask questions, come on"
Arriving at the police station I saw Alfie in handcuffs walking into the cell area.
"I don't understand... Alf?" I walked towards him.
He looked away.
"I'm sorry about Joe..."
"What?"
Alfie was shoved away as I search for Joe.
"Do you have anyone name Joseph Sugg in this station?"
"I'm sorry mam we don't"
"What about an Alexis Butler?" Marcus said over my shoulder.
"Well she is here and is being spoken to about an incident--" I run as the man points while speaking.
"Zoe!" Marcus calls after me.
"You'll get yourself arrested!" I stopped and stayed stiff.
He's right.
I can't react.
I need to focus on Joe.
Walking back to the man at the desk I asked about Alfie Deyes.
"When you've arrested Alfie and locked him up for good, could you check for some DNA of Alfie Deyes because that is not him..." I walked away and out of the doors, tears staining my eyes.
Marcus comforted me.
I waited outside for Alexis to walk out.
Marcus sat with me as I tapped my foot impatiently for ten minutes.
I looked around and up to the sky, when I heard doors slam.
It was Alexis.
She stumbled out crying.
Marcus ran over to her and hugged her.
"Marcus..." she quickly wiped them away, thinking we didn't see.
"What's happened...?" I asked quietly.
"Zoe..."
I looked down at the ground and asked again.
"What's happened Alex?"
Nothing was said for a while when I yelled at the top of my lungs.
"ANSWER MY QUESTION, PLEASE!" My voice cracked as I burst and had to walk away.
A hand was placed on my shoulder.
Marcus.
It spun me around and I saw Alexis.
My face screw up, but I couldn't hold it.
"I'm so sorry Zoe!" Alexis stood in front of me cried so hard.
I nodded as another tear fell.
"Me too..." I finally spat out.
I hugged her, not too sure if that's what she wanted, but she hugged back.
I smiled into her warm beige jumper.
I held her hands and sat her on a bench with Marcus beside her and she told the story.
After knowing what Alfie did to my helpless brother, it made me want to assault him inside of the police station.
"But Alex, why were you crying?" Marcus turned me around.
She stuttered.
"I-I was just so stressed and seeing Joe being beaten up was even worse..." Alex looked down at the floor.
I looked across to Marcus and pulled her up.
"Let's go to see Joe" I smiled at everyone.
I could sense something going on with Alex but I just didn't know what.
We get to the hospital and find Joe.
He's lying in a bed, eyes wide open watching the door.
I run in to his side.
"Zo!" He smiles brightly and I hug him gently.
"Marcus, Alex!" He sees them come in.
"You scared us a bunch, man!" Marcus stood at the bottom of the bed.
"I'm so glad your looking better, and I'm really really sorry I couldn't do anything when he was pushing me away" her voice drifted off.
She stood smiling at him while he stared and smiled back.
"Okay what is going on right now?" Marcus stopped them.
"What?" Joe moved awkwardly.
"I think our little brother and sister are..."
"Together?"
