13 - Me

"Do you want to go and eat?" I attempt again to get Luke downstairs.

1:57pm

Shit, only 3 more minutes until Jai comes, I need to get Luke there.

"You have to get something in your stomach" I continue.

Luke sniffs and shook his head, rubbing one eye with his hand.

"Luke ple-"

"Shut up! Shut the fuck up!" He shouted, his face getting red and tears welling up in his eyes as he shouted.

"I, uh, I, " I was lost for words.

"Ugh, I'm sorry." He calms down.

"I guess it would be nice to have something to drink after all of this." He suggests and we finally made our way down the elevator.

1:59pm.. Perfect.

I quickly run and get him water from the cafeteria and run back to Luke who was still standing in front of the elevator. I handed him the water and he took and long, slow sip. "Okay let me back up."

"Just wait" I try to stall him, where the heck is Jai?
"No! I look and feel like shit!" He attempts to get out of my grip but I hold on to him tightly, preventing him from slipping away.

"Fuck this!" He scoffs and gets free and walks towards the elevator.
This was all going in slow motion, no, stop Luke, stop!

"Luke?" A voice cracked behind us both. Luke froze and I turned around to see Jai, bent over, hands on his knees, gasping for air.
"It's me." He mumbled.
Luke's lips quivered.
I ran around to the front of Luke and he stood still, like a robot.
"Luke, turn around." I smile.
"Luke!" Jai shouted from behind him. He was about ten metres away.

~3RD PERSON P.O.V~
Luke stood as still as a rock.
Jai suddenly collapsed to the ground, head buried in his hands.
Luke turned around at a quick speed and ran as fast as lightning to Jai and stood upon him, looking down at him.
Jai looked up with his red eyes and he breathed heavily.
"I-it's me." He stuttered again.

Luke held out a hand to Jai and he accepted. Luke pulled him up.
Jai, with no hesitation wrapped his arms around his brother.
Luke had no actions to be placed, he represented a statue.
"Luke?" Jai looked up.
Luke looked back. "Brother, I need you." Luke spoke with a bland voice. He turned around to Lily. "Can Jai and I talk in your counselling room?" He asked. Lily just nodded and Luke pulled Jai into the elevator.

Once they were in, Luke smashed Jai up to the cushioned wall. The security guards had a 15 minutes break so they weren't in the elevator.
"I'm glad you have returned, you can help me now." He heavily breathed, smirking at his brother who was scared shitless.

"Um, with what?" Jai quietly spoke. "I need to kill."
