Hey so this is my first fic so please be patient with me. Just tell me if I'm inaccurate about something or if there's a problem with my spelling/etc. I really hope someone gets the reference the title is making. Enjoy!
Aunt Ann used to tell me how excited mother and father were when they found out they were going to have us. Of course they were only expecting to become a family of three, not expecting to be adding three identical baby boys. Whenever Aunt Ann told us the story of the day we were born mother and her made it a point to always describe father's face at seeing us, each time with a new dramatic introduction.
Mother and father loved the number three, they thought it was blessed, pretty strange to let people know to be honest but that's what they'd tell us alongside I love you. When asked why they loved it so much father always replied, "Three is suppose to be holy right?"
My brothers and I may all look like fragile identical porcelain dolls, yet besides that fact I was always the one that didn't cost much. Of course I never realized it back then, I always thought we were equal, the same. Just like our looks. But appearances aren't all what they seem and many people, namely the adults in my life, have always talked about it as if it were a truly impossible thing to look pass, even if they try to deny it. They would tell us to, "Never judge a book by it's cover," but I think it's a load of crap when people say that, it's always either the people it doesn't concern or the hypocrites. It's very hard to look pass appearances with such a mindset. Luckily my family never felt the need to feed us that, perhaps they didn't think such a saying should determined our worth. Either way it didn't work out for me, my worth wasn't as much, I wasn't identical to my brothers when you broke through that porcelain skin.
My oldest brother Ciel, the future head of the family, is what you could call a template for us. Astre and I love him so much, but we aren't enough alike him. Ciel is the one that has his future handed right to him, while Astre and I will have to one day leave home and find our own. Ciel has the perfect health, where I'm outright average and Astre is almost always sick.
Poor Astre would have been very great as the head of the family if he wasn't so sickly. It's true he may not have been as social as Ciel due to his illness always keeping him inside, but he was extremely intelligent and usually had much better regards for other people then Ciel. I think that's why Ciel had always been fond of him, he sees just what he is. I know he cares for us both but he has certain strategies to things. I think he saw something in Astre...but it's probably just brotherly love. They really got along so well that sometimes I felt they were closer. I know that was a bit dumb to worry about and that I did do a lot of things with both of them and they had never actually excluded me and made me feel it, but I couldn't help but feel there was a different bond there.
There's only two of us left now though, so I don't have to worry about being left out. One of my brothers is dead while the other already has one foot in the grave. It was all thanks to that month. Many things changed in that short span of time. Ciel was never the same after what happened. But I'd never dare ask what I missed...It's best not to bring memories up and pretend they weren't there to begin with.Note: Sorry this is so short I promise it'd pick up eventually. This just had to be short and sweet, I can't reveal everything right away. But just to let you know Rosier(current perspective) did go through the same things, it's just more complicated for the sake of the plot....
