Please Don't Hide Anything From Us

•~Many Things~•

'No. Not yet. But I'll tell them sooner!' Thorn thought.

"Is there something wrong Thorn?" Cyclone question made Thorn snapped back to reality.

"Oh... Nope! Just thinking bout something," Thorn reply.

"Don't think to much or you'll get another headache," Thunderstorm said as he patted Thorn's head. He went over to the sofa and sat beside Earthquake. Well- technically he made Earthquake sleep in his lap. He caress Earthquake's head.

Thorn chuckles seeing this. He knew how protective the oldest is to his family. It's rare seeing him showing affection you know!

"Here, eat this Thornie," Cyclone said as he feed the little brother in front of him. Thorn just open his mouth as Cyclone feed him the food.

Thorn smiles. If it's rare seeing Thunderstorm showing affection, then it's more rare seeing Cyclone being mature and act like his age. Usually, you could only see this side of him when Earthquake is sick or tired. Thorn let out a small laughs. How he wish his family can just smile without having any problems...

Thunderstorm caress Earthquake's hair as he takes few glances at his other two little brothers. Then he notices that Earthquake eyes are swollen. And tired. He sighs.

'Cries? What did he and Thorn talk about? Why isn't he telling me anything anymore? Am I too controlling? Too protective? That he can't trust me anymore?' Thunderstorm ask himself as he rubbed Earthquake's cheek.

He stares at Earthquake's face. Bruise on his eye, and a clean cut on his forehead, hidden well by his hair. Thunderstorm then take Earthquake's hand and roll his sleeve up. A scar. The scar that Earthquake claim to not know the one who did it.

All of this and he can't even do anything. Can't protect. Can't tell. Can't find the culprit. Can't be a big brother.

'You used to tell me everything when we're younger... Except when you're in trouble... But you're so good at lying that sometimes I can't seem to find what's wrong... It's the same situation now... Why won't you tell me...? Was I not worthy of your trust? Do you not trust me enough to protect you? Do you feel unsafe with me? I'm sorry...' Thunderstorm gritted his teeth. Then he bit his lips. For a short while and he can already taste the blood in his mouth.

But he didn't even care. Compares to what Earthquake has gone through, this is nothing. That's what he thought.

His head is a mess. But now, he knew what to do. He caresses Earthquake's hair.

'I'll protect you,' he thought to himself.

"How are you feeling, Solar?" Ice asks as he brings a cup of water for Solar who's pinching his forehead.

"Better... I guess," Solar replies as he takes the cup and empty it.

"Man... I always thought twins telepathy is great but sometimes it's also suck," said Blaze as he put his hands on the back of head.

"You're lucky enough our twins telepathy isn't as strong as Solar and Thornie," Ice replies as he rolls his eyes.

"Well- Solar can feel the pain Thornie is feeling while I can feel the emotions you're feeling. Is that not strong enough?" Blaze asks back.

"Well, both of us don't need to feel pain if one of us are sad," Ice replied.

"True true... Speaking of twins telepathy... Does our oldest brothers have them also?" Blaze asks, opening a new topic.
