Chapter 10

- Emerson's pov -

My face hurt like a bitch, Mel put a pack of freezer peas on my face to calm down the swelling. I had tears of anger and hurt streaming down  my face as I sat on the kitchen floor with Melanie's arms around me. I felt bad that I hit Sebastian but at the same time I was mad, he didn't have to fucking punch my face.

"Are you okay?" Mel said, we had barely spoken since Seb walked off an hour ago. "I don't know, I'm mad at him but at the same time I threw the first punch." She hugged me tighter. "Let's go to the couch and watch a movie, the floor is cold. Mel got up and put out her hand to pull me up.

After another 2 hours I heard the front door open, it was Rem trying to hold up a very drunk Sebastian. "Uh, can you guys help me?" I ran over to Remington and helped him get Sebastian to the couch.

"He called me super drunk slurring on his words, he said something about a fight and that he was at a bar. I can't take him home like this mom will freak, so I brought him back here." Rem said and then looking at my swollen face. "Did he hit your face???" I nodded. "What the fuck happened?" Rem sat down and I started explaining the whole story.

When I was done explaining Zoe came down the stairs. Her face was puffy and her eyes red, she had definitely been crying. "Are you okay Zoe?" Mel said with worried eyes, she walked over to her step sister and gave her a long hug.

"Uh y-yeah I'm okay, I guess, I can't believe he hit you like that Em." Zoe struggled to talk. I stood up and walked over to her, I gave her a hug and then sat down next to Melanie.

Without realizing it was pretty late at night, me and Mel woke up so late we weren't out of bed before 3 pm and with all the fighting it had gotten late. "I think I'll go to bed, I'm really tired and my face still hurts." I said getting up, Melanie went with me and Rem and Zoe took of Sebastians shoes and slayed him down on the couch.

_-the next day-_

Me and Mel hadn't been to school since before the weekend and with my big black eye I didn't plan on going today either. It was pretty early still so I decided to not wake up Melanie. I got up and pulled out my sketch book from my bag. It felt like forever since I sat down to draw but it had only been a few days. At my old school I was bullied a lot and I would mostly sit by myself drawing.

I hate thinking about all the shit that happened at my last school. I miss being a kid, just being able to be yourself without judgment from the people around you. I sat down by a large window in Mels room, I miss the times when I was younger and me and my brothers were best friends. We had all ways been really close but right before Sebastian started dating Zoe it all changed.

We were in a band, I played the drums, Seb played guitar and Rem sang. I have some of my favorite times during that time. We called ourselves "Kropp circle" I missed having them as my best friends and creating music with them. I still played drums sometimes and I heard Rem sing a lot but I think Sebastian stopped playing guitar even though he's crazy talented.

Honestly I don't know why we stopped, I think stuff just changed when Rem got more interested in getting into girls pants and me and Sebastian started fighting more.

"What you thinking about baby?" I heard Mel say behind me. She sat down next to me and kissed me. "Well actually I was thinking about how much I miss me and my brothers band." I say with a sigh. "Aww, Sebastian told me about it and played some of your old music, you guys were great." "I wish we could go back to that time" I said looking down at my lap. "Do you know if the other guys would wanna do it?" She asked me. "UH DEFINITELY" Rem screamed now standing in Mel's room. "I've missed making music with you idiots, I just thought you wouldn't wanna do it."

I sat with my head on Emerson's shoulder as he and Remi talked about how they missed their old band and wanted to get back together. "Sebastian and I aren't on the best terms right now thought." Emerson said and played with my hair. "You need to start sorting out that stuff because I've been working on some songs lately" Remington said and stood up.

We all went downstairs. Sebastian was sitting with Zoe, they were talking and as we came down they hugged and Sebastian kissed Zoe's forehead as she smiled.

"Uhm Seb, I wanna talk to you" Emerson said. Sebastian noded and they went to the kitchen.

"Okay let me talk" I said. "So I know you don't want me to smoke weed but you don't understand, sometimes stuff gets too much and it's the only thing helping me. You should at least try and understand. You know I struggle, I don't want to fight I need my brother." I was crying"  I- I won't get through all the shit that's happened without y-you" Sebastian hugged me.

"Don't worry, I understand you don't need to say more." He said. Thankgod I hated talking about the stuff I've been through. "There was another thing too" I say. Sebastian lets go of the hug and nods. "Rem come in here now" I say.

"So me and Em were talking about the band, maybe we should get back together. It was so much fun." Remington said. "Oh, I hadn't thought about it"

We talk for maybe an hour. Then we went to the living room where Mel and Zoe were.

"So, we've been talking and well firstly they solved their problems but the important part is that were getting out old band back together." Remington said. "But were changing the name to Palaye Royale" I said with a smile.
