If I were Zane, I would have ran out of my house the moment that my mother walked in... I would have done so many things differently If I were him.
As I look Zane directly into his bright green eyes, I can't help but thank that lord that I'm not him.
"Who is Lucas?"
Okay... Maybe it would have been better if he did run out of my house.
"Was." I correct him.
Zane lays back onto my bed, still looking up at me, "Was he your dog or something?"
"He was my brother."
"Oh... What happened to him?"
I rest my head on my hand, and look down at him, "How about we start with why your brother ran out of your house screaming?"
Zane scrunches his face up in disgust, "Why ruin a perfectly good conversation with his disgusting presence?"
"Maybe I'm interested in his disgusting presence."
Zane sits up slowly and looks at me with distaste in his eyes, slowly he says, "You like my brother?"
I raise an eyebrow, "After all that I just did, and after everything, you like my brother?"
Zane pushes himself off of my bed and grabs his soaked clothes that are still bunched up in the corner.
I think for a second about what I just said... 'interested in his presence...' 'interested' 'Nash' 'presence'... All of a sudden it clicks, "No!"
Zane gives me a dirty look right before he walks out my door, "Yeah, sure you don't, sweetheart."
I jump off of my bed and follow him as he walks towards the entrance of my house, "Zane, stop, I don't like him at all!"
"Maybe he should be in your presence instead of me!" Zane walks out the door and slams it as he leaves.
"don't be an idiot, get the fuck out there!" my mind screams at me.
I walk out the door only to see that Zane is only passing the barrier of my house, "Zane, stop walking away!" I run after him.
I catch up to him, grab him by the arm, and spin him around.
Zane yanks his arm away from me hard and looks down at me with anger in his eyes, "Why does my brother always get everything?" he shouts, "Why can't I just have this one thing?"
I stare up at Zane as he fumes in anger, but don't make any move to talk, "He knows that I like you, yet he refuses to let you go! He already has mom and dad wrapped around his finger, he already has all of my old friends, the phone I wanted, the computer I wanted, He's had Alexandria many times, he literally has everything! Why can't he just let me have you?" I hear his voice break, "I'm still paying for a mess that I created when I was 13 years old." His voice still has the intensity, but his volume is decreasing, "It's not like I knew any better..."
By this time my jaw had dropped and hit the floor.
I knew that Nash was a complete asshole to his brother, anybody could see that... But I didn't know the extent of what's been happening, "What happened when Nash ran out of the house today?"
Zane presses his lips into a thin line, covers his face with his hand, and though his fingers I hear him mumble out, "He bought cocaine and told my parents that he found it in my drawer."
Zane POV(Earlier that day):
Life never ceases to surprise me.
And as it seems, my brother never ceases to take everything that I have and rip it from the root.
