✅ Overprotective Brother 2// Z.H, D.S ✅

"Why'd you have to say that Zach" He asks

"I-I didn't mean it. She was just frustrating me cause like she says she's okay but we know Daniel we know she isn't. I didn't want to yell or make her cry"

"I know what you're feeling. I just wish this could all be over and she could be fine. I have great regrets over how I was as a brother and I really wish I could change what happened "

"You guys can't blame yourselves for what happened. She was in a bad spot already." Jonah tells them

"Yeah and you especially can't blame yourselves for how she is now. No ones to blame for how she's feeling. Not even her." Jack adds

"The Brain is weird and messed up. But don't worry she'll get better. You just have to go slow with everything. Especially the eating thing." Corbyn finishes

"But she has to eat it's what the nurse said"

"Yeah well you can't force food down her throat. You have to go slow. She just got out of everything and she hasn't had food in a while. I mean as long as she eats one thing she'll be fine. And Daniel you said she had soup earlier"

"Yeah well I want her to eat more"

"You have to ease into it. I promise you if you go slow she'll slowly want to eat."

"And Zach you have to not tell her that she's not okay. Depression is like a mind game. The more she hears she's not okay the worse she's going to get. If you let her believe she's okay she'll get better."

"I know I feel so bad for what I said. Daniel I'm sorry if that made everything worse"

"Zach it's fine I'm glad you wanted her to eat I just wish-"

"I didn't say what I said I know I wish the same thing"

"I'm sorry again"

"It's fine again"

"Wait where is she?"

"Sleeping in m-"

"DANIIIIII"

"In my room" he sighs and walks up in his room

"Yes"

"I want brother-sister cuddle time" she pouts and Daniel lays next to her

"Yay" she lays her head on Daniels chest with her arm around him

"Are you still upset?" Daniel asks

"A little I miss my Zachy though. I don't like fighting with him"

"Well he doesn't like fighting with you either. How about I go bring him up here and he can take you into your guys's room"

"No our cuddle session isn't done"

"When is it over"

"When I want it to be" she closes her eyes and drifts off to sleep again

Daniel takes out his phone and texts Zach

D- Hey come upstairs and get Julia please. She wants to cuddle with me right now and then later be with u but if u come up she'll def leave with u

Z- okay I'll be up in a second

Right after Zach zooms up the stairs and into Daniels room

He gives Daniel a silent hello and picks up Julia taking her into their room

As soon as she is laid down she opens her eyes

"Zachy!!!"

"Hi"

"I'm sorry i yelled at you"

"I'm sorry I made you upset"

"It's okay I still love you"

"I love you too let's go to sleep okay"

She nods and quickly climbs under their covers. Zach follows and lays down next to her. Putting the heavy, warm blankets on both of their bodies Zach kisses her cheek.

Julia cuddles up to Zach the same way she did to Daniel but much better and kisses him tiredly before falling asleep

"I love you and I will help you get better. I'll be there every step of the way goodnight baby" Zach whispers kissing her forehead before falling asleep him self
