I lie awake in bed thinking until I hear Logan walk in.
"Ya not asleep yet kid? it's 1 am"
"I know"
I'm guessing ya don't want to talk about it"
"Oui you are correct" I reply
"Fine kid, call me if ya need me" he says before rolling over and falling asleep. Sometime later after listening to his calm breathing I too fall into a fitful sleep
Dream
A younger Gabe and I 'Looking around the ages 7 and 10' were in a pub and from the surroundings you could tell we weren't in the USA.
"Remember Gabe" I said laughing "You're buying"
"Yeah I remember and you're gonna make me broke over one fluke" he replies jokingly
"Ah but it weren't a fluke and you know it brother"
"I'll beat ya next time"
"Sure ya will" I replied trying to hide my grin as I didn't need Gabe punching me
"Well look what the cat dragged in" a new voice spoke up
"Oh shit" I whispered to Gabe "Dick stepfather's little bastard"
Now it was Gabe's turn to hide a grin
"You two won't be laughing soon I'll kill ya, you two left me and dad as fools"
"Try it bub" I reply releasing my claws
'Oh scary" Tony says before snapping his fingers so that everyone in the room has a gun pointed at us
"Ready little brother" Gabe asks me with his back against mine.
I never understood why him and father sometimes called me Jimmy and why he liked calling me brother so much no one else does that.When I asked he said it was because 'We had one of the strongest bonds he had ever heard of ' I knew what he meant because we may fight a lot but we always ended up having each other's back and always came back for each other.
So I replied "Always brother, till the end"
And with that been said, we fought until every last person in that bar was dead except for Tony and two others. I heard a shot been fired and looked down feeling sudden pain to see a hole in my right shoulder.And then something worse happened, I heard Gabe collapse behind me and in my rage I killed the last two men but Tony ran out the door like the coward he is. Gabe was still down when I turned around and I saw that the bullet has gone through his heart and it wasn't healing.
"Gabe.. no" I sob "Come on wake up, I can't live without you"
Dream fades
"Gabe no,no,no" I said waking up on the floor
'What the f*** just happen' I think
"Are you alright?" Logan asks sitting up in his bed
"Yes"
"Who's Gabe?" he asks cautiously
There is silence as I ignore Logan until he grasps my shoulder and forces me to look at him
"Hey answer me, who's Gabe?"
I sigh "He was my brother"
"Was? What happened to him?"
I look away
"Oliver, what happened to Gabe?"
I turn back around to face Logan before answering "He died, maybe I think he did but I'm not too sure I don't remember" and then I leave the room. I knew I wasn't sleeping again tonight.
Next day
"Why didn't you tell me about him sooner, you clearly knew who he was" Logan said glaring at me angrily as I sat down at the table
"I just don't like to talk about him and I didn't really know that much about him"
"How'd he die?"
I hesitate 'should I tell him? I decide I trust him' "I don't even know if he died, I only assume that he's dead since he's not with me now because we were always together. And if he is dead it's all my fault anyway"
"I didn't ask who killed him I asked how"
"He was shot in the heart and the healing factor didn't work"
"Where was this?"
"I don't know, a bar somewhere though not in the U.S, somewhere like Vietnam or Taiwan.I have no idea why we were there" I answered honestly
"Does it feel good to talk about it?" Logan asks
I scowl "Not really but it's like a huge weight I've been carrying has been lifted"
He nods his head "Still won't talk about Africa?"
I shake my head "Logan I'm just not ready to talk about what happened there, it's not like I don't trust you I have trusted you more that anyone in a long time and anyway it's kinda hard to explain what happened it'll be easier if the professor just looks at the memory and shows you"
"I understand and that can be arranged whenever you're ready, ya know if I knew I could get ya to talk by bringing ya down here I would've done it ages ago"
"Haha real funny, what's there to do in this place?"
He shrugs "We could have a game of football"
"You're on, if you lose you have to buy me a beer"
"Sure kid because there's no way that you are winning and if I win you've got to buy me a beer"
"So basically you're saying we going to a pub either way"
"No you're just paying me what a beer cost"
"Fine let's do this"
Logan's pov
'Why the hell did I say I'll give him a beer I just have to not let him win' I think
In the gym
"Okay kid best of three wins, I'll defend first then you defend the score line is here" I say pointing to the line
"Got it old man"
I scoffed "we'll see who's old after this, ready go!"
Time skip
"Haha sucker you've got to give me a beer" he gloated
"First of all you cheated"
"Yeah, yeah, you never said nothing about not being allowed to pop the ball"
"I didn't think I needed to"
"Well ya did now where's my beer I can't believe it's already 8"
Against my better judgement I actually went through with the deal "Here ya go kid' I say handing him a beer
"Thanks but I won't drink it now, I'll wait till I need it"
"Yeah well it's your bedtime"
"Since when do I have a bedtime"
"Since I want to watch the hockey in peace"
"No way, who's playing?"
"Calgary vs Montreal, now can you please shut up if you're gonna stay out here"
"Yes sir"
