~Brooklyn's POV~
"she's cheating on you Brayden, she's never cared, you don't believe me? folder" I chuck him my phone and speed up the stairs straight into my room. slamming the door shut, I fall on it and find my body sinking to the ground. I hate fighting with anyone, especially my brother, I hate getting into arguments with him but I can't watch him be lead on anymore, Charity will hurt him, just less the sooner he knows.
a sob escaped my lips I felt a tear roll down my cheek, I raised my hand quickly wiping them away. I rose to my feet straightening out my tank top and tugging my shorts down slightly. I slowly start walking around my room while running my fingers through my hair. sighing, I fall on my bed and jump slightly when I hear his voice.
"you boyfriend break up with you or something" I don't have to look at him to know he's smirking. getting off my bed, I walk over to my window and lean on the seal of my window.
"what makes you think I ever had a boyfriend?" I question, my tone saying I'm clearly not interested in dealing with him.
"why wouldn't a stunning girl like you have a boyfriend?" I can't help the blush that creeps onto my face at his comment.
"because" finding myself avoiding his gaze, I take a deep breath and continue, "because I'm just a voice. that's all I am Asher, a voice" I finish finding the confidence to look back up at him.
reaching out, his hand finds its way onto my cheek, blushing a deeper red at his soft hold. " you're clearly not 'just a voice' there is a beautiful girl who happens to have a stunning voice standing right in front of me" his tone was low and soft, also sexy.
gripping his wrist, I pull his hand away from my face and drop my gaze. taking my hand away from him, I close the window and fall back into bed. Rani has left, she would be here otherwise, and I should let Brayden cool down, doing the same myself. grabbing my laptop from my desk, I position myself, back on the wall, knees up, laptop open and resting on them. opening up Google, I click on the 'facebook' tab that was open still on messenger with James.
(J=James, B= Brooklyn)
B- Hey James
J- Hey Brook, what's up?
B- I told Brayden Charity is cheating on him...
J- did he believe it?
B- not until he looked at the evidence
J- how did it go?
B- it ended in a fight
J- like fists or...
B- no, it was just verbal
B- and Asher is being annoying
J- how is Asher being annoying?
B- he's just frustrating
J- how?
B- he's like saying things that are just annoying and frustrating to me
J- where are you?
B- in my room
J- then how is he talking to you?
B- oh, haven't i told you? he's my neighbour and his room is right across from mine, you know that creepy old room.
J- since when?
B- they moved Monday after school
J- why didn't you tell me this sooner?
B- I guess it just passed my mind
J- does Rani know?
B- yes when she came over she saw him and we're having them over for dinner tomorrow
J- another one of you families fancy dinners?
B- yep, "first impressions matter"
J- do you want me to come over?
B- Nah, I might just wait for a bit then try and talk to Brayden
J- hope it goes well
B-thanks, bye
J- bye
I close my laptop and scoot off the edge of my bed, fiddling with my fingers as my feet take me towards my door. I feel a tear slip down my cheek as I replay the argument in my head, the yelling. I saw in his eyes, hate, towards me. he hated me, just hear those words leaving my lips. I never got into an actual fight with him, we only ever got into petty little arguments over nothing. Rani always said we were 'sibling goals' because we never fought, well I guess that changed.
I quickly wipe away the few tears the rolled down my cheek in my thoughts and look up to see I'm standing in front of my door. reluctantly, I reach out and twist the door handle, slowly pulling the door open. in front of me stood Brayden, my phone clenched tightly in his hands, his eyes squeezed closed, a tear falling from his cheek.
"B-Brayden..." my voice was bearly a whisper but he heard me. his eyes slowly open landing on me, fighting back the tears myself.
"Brooklyn, I'm so sorry, I'm sorry for yelling at you, for not believing you, for not listening to you, for-"I cut him off my wrapping my arms tightly around his waist. his arms come around my body, returning my hug, my head resting on his chest.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't all your fault, I'm sorry about Charity too"I respond, my hands gripping the material of his shirt.
"Hey, I should have listened, I always knew it was a posibility I just didn't want to believe it"I feel his fingers combing through my hair.
"what are you going to do now? are you going to break up with her?" I ask, lifting my head to look up at my brother.
"Nah, I'm gonna give her a taste of her own medicine" he replies, a smirk creeping onto his lips.
