Step Brothers

Chapter 9

Lake's POV

I was walking home with my new friend Leta and Calvin with his new girlfriend Ashley.

I was telling them my life story, on the walk home.

"That sounds terrible, maybe that baby brother pipsqueak that you said was never in a coma should have been." I was getting mad at Ashley, because I was always glad he wasn't put in a coma.

"Babe, that's not right, can you not say that stuff about our little brother."

Cal saying that calmed me down a little, until Seth Andrews caught up with us. He's Cal and my "friend", but I can't stand him, I don't think Calvin can either, because he's always talking about Landan.

"Reword, Landan is Lake's little brother and Calvin's step brother." Seth laughed and I punched him in the shoulder, just "playing".

"Ow, dude, what was that for.? Seth whined.

"Sorry, it was an "accident", but for real though. DON'T TALK ABOUT MY BROTHER!" I pulled him up too my face by his shirt.

He nodded his head frantically as we got to our door.

"Wait here we'll be right back." Calvin said as we each went to our rooms.

Landan's POV

I heard Calvin and Lake come home so I ran down to see my two oldest brothers.

When I got to the living room, I saw it was full of a bunch of teens, but none of them were my brothers.

I tried to go back to my room but I was dragged back by one of the teens.

I was shaking with fear, and anger, I hoped one of my brothers would save me.

I was getting beat up by these guys, but didn't cry, I was used to it because of my dad.

"Those two brothers of yours would choose us over you anyday." The boy out of the two beating me up said, and made my eyes teary.

"Liar, our brothers would choose us over you two, any day!"

I looked over and saw the shouter was Braylon.

He walked over and yanked me away from them beating me up. I watched as Bray shoved all the kids and led me to the kitchen for some ice.

"You're an idiot, you know that." Braylon said as he made me an ice pack.

"What do you mean?" I asked as I took a seat on the counter.

"You could have taken them, and you know it. Look kid you've been the a lot and you can take a lot of shit, but baby bro you're not indescribable." He told me as he stuck the ice on my wounds.

" I'm sorry, but they were Calvin's and Lake's friends and what if they got mad at me." I look down.

"You know they would take your side. You know what, I'm gonna tell them what happened."

I jumped down and ran over to him.

"Please don't, I'll defend myself against them. I'll tell them if it gets to bad." I begged.

"Ok but if it's not fixed and you don't tell them, I'm gonna take things into my hands." After saying that Braylon went walking to his room.

I walking back to the living room and saw Calvin and Lake, so I tried to walk away.

"Hey little bro, wait up come meet some people." Calvin called me.

I looked down as I walked to them.

"WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU!" Lake shouted as he jerked my head up.

"I-I..... I fell down the stairs, ..... and bruised myself up." I was trying to make a story.

Lake didn't really look like he believed my story, but he went along anyway.

"Well kid, this is Seth our "friend", Ashley Calvin's girlfriend, and Leta a friend of mine."

I nodded and went back to my room.

As I sat there trying to fix up my wounds, I heard an angry growl.

I popped my head up to see Treyton.

"Who the fuck hurt you, and don't tell me you just fell, because that's a lie!" Treyton yelled at me.

I flinched at the sound of my brother upset and yelling.

"Their friends hurt me but they don't know." I mumble.

"What?" He sat on my bed next to me.

"Lake and Calvin's friends hurt me, except for Leta, but she didn't notice her music was too loud, but they don't know they were in their rooms and they were all in the living room."

"We're telling them." Trey looked down at me.

"NO! Please, what if they choose those guys over me, I mean one is Calvin's girlfriend." I begged.

I leaned on Treyton's shoulder and he stroked my hair, trying to calm me down.

"They wouldn't choose anyone over you, especially Lake. We're your brothers we love you." Treyton gave me a soft smile.

"I love you guys too." I hug my older brother.

I walked down stairs again, but this time Leon, and Gavin were shouting at the two teens.

I ran over there and pulled my brothers back.

"What are you guys doing?" I asked.

"We saw what they did." Leo said.

"And we tried to help." Gav said.

I looked at my feet as my two oldest brothers walked up.

"What are they talking about?" Calvin asked.

"Yeah all day you've been acting weird, and I want to know right now what's going on." Lake demanded.

I looked up at my brother, giving him a look saying 'don't you do it don't you pick me up.' Because when he demands me to tell him something he picks me up and won't put me down until I tell him everything.

He ignored my face and picked me up anyway.

"Put me down."

"Not until you tell me everything."

"Ok, so Leta was listening to music on the couch she legit had nothing to do with it. But Seth and Ashley started to beat me up, and I didn't fight back because I didn't want you guys mad at me, but after all that the told me you two would choose them over me any day. And that's when Braylon saved me." I explain everything.

"WAIT SO BRAYLON KNEW HE IS SO DEAD!" Lake looked furious.

"Don't get mad at our brothers they all might have known but they wanted to tell you but I begged them not too." I looked up at them.

Lake and Calvin pushed me infront of them.

"Ashley we're done." Calvin smiled.

"And we give you full permission to beat their asses, and by the way Seth you were never our friend. Lake said and gave an evil smile.

"This will be fun."

I run at the two and start fighting.Seth was so beat, he had a broken leg, brother arm, and a fractured ankle. Ashley was just bruised pretty bad.

"We would never choose anyone over our baby brothers."
