Lost

The Reveal

Trey's POV

She can't do this.

I will not allow her to see Xavier...

Yes, I do know him; sadly he is my brother.

Foster brother.

I understand that it is very complicated but he put this all on HIMSELF! After his blow up at Rose, he didn't only change in front of her but me and my family. I was an only child and I lived my life just like any 'nerdy' teenager would - my social life was pretty cool, I joined clubs at high school and I met the most wonderful human known to... ME.

Rose - the moment I saw her, I didn't get butterflies in my stomach (that shit is for girls) but I felt a motion through my body like she was a angel right there. All I had to do is go up to her by her locker and say "Hey!" and that I did and it just kicked off from there.

However, my parents wanted to have another child but my mother had something wrong with her uterus which couldn't allow her to have children again after me. It truly broke her apart and caused arguments between her and my father which made him start drinking again. My family was a mess which was so hard for me to deal with at the time until...

One day, I was walking home from school, pasting this tall, average guy with dark brown hair, just strolling by himself. I have seen him in school, always by himself but that was Xavier for you. At the time, I hardly knew him but I knew he had been in foster care since a child and had been moving from place to place - I had a sudden urge to say something to him because he looked very lonely. Gradually walking towards him, I decided to sit down next to him on the edge of the street - he didn't look at me but said

"Who are you?" in a struggled tone.

I supposed he had a troubled past growing up which strongly affected him to become the confused, heartless prick is he today. I told him my name and he turned swiftly and looked at me up and down with a surprised glace - "Wow, I wouldn't have expected you to come and speak to me, You're Trey Pears - the one and only" with a random giggle, I looked at him strange wondering how the hell did he know me? But I reached out my hand and offered him a handshake saying "It's nice to finally meet you bro!" and he accepted it back saying "Same here bro" with a relived and grateful smile. Not going to lie, it was bittersweet, having to step out of your own way to meet someone new, something I have never done before but REGARDLESS of what's happening now, I'm glad I introduced myself.

Days went past and Xavier became my best friend like we were doing so much together - clubbing, studying for finals, playing basketball and more. He was becoming like my own brother, my parents loved his presence and knew about his situation in which they made the important decision to adopt him. That day when everything was finalised, the joy and tears from Xavier were never how I have seen him before, hugging me and my parents - he was so happy and excited and I felt for him because he finally had a home to come to.

He was already friends with Rose and knew about Rose and me although he will look at her as if she didn't deserve to be with me (I never said anything but it was a recurring inside thought... which all makes sense now.) We will all hang out together, creating memories and living life as if it was our last.

HOWEVER...

There is an extent where he had reached and went way past the line and has caused so many problems undescribeable! He began to fall behind in class, forget to complete and hand in assignments, started to disrespect my parents, fight with me (which were not pretty!) and WORSE of all... he had to NERVE to move to Rose, trying to do things to her that no man should ever do - That was the day it changed and...

HIM!

I suddenly became a person I don't EVER want to be again. The anger inside had exploded into something ugly and bloodcurdling which even Xavier didn't seem to like. I wanted to kill him so bad but I wasn't going for jail for him... NO FUCKING WAY! Unfortunately due to his reckless behaviour and attitude, my parents (after many attempts) decided to kick him out of the house; he had lost it and left the house without saying anything but "FUCK YOU!"

.............

Time went past, I graduated from high school and I moved away into my own apartment near Rose and started doing what I do best.

Unexpectedly, a few months ago Rose started receiving calls from this anonymous person.

Who was the fuck was this prick? What the hell did he want with my girl? It bothered me straight away.

She did everything to get rid of him but nothing was working. Until, she finally gave up and answered one of his calls - she was screaming at him because she was scared and confused as to why this person was tormenting her. He was laughing down the phone, acting like this was a sick and twisted game of his and saying "I will never..."

That was it. Everything had stopped for a while. Just like that.

Until today...

I opened the door to view Rose stressing out at the reveal of the anonymous stalker; she was walking up and down, literally pulling her hair out. Xavier seemed to have something for Rose but I would have never thought he would go this far.

"I can't believe this shit! All this time, it was him - Rose! We have to call the police and have him taken away! He is dangerous." I stared at her, freaking out! "He wants something from me Trey and I don't know what it is but it's something! SHIT WHY WON'T HE LEAVE ME ALONE!?" I quickly grabbed her and hugged her close as she began to cry on my shoulder.

We just stood there together, holding close.

She needed me at this point and i was glad i was there right by her side.
