“How’s Tom?”

I turn my head around to see only my twin coming into the kitchen having asked that question....

Turning back round I continue to concentrate on mixing this milkshake that I’ve made for the little boy...

“Okay...I guess..” I tell him vaguely...this is like our second conversation since last night....if you count two words as a conversation...

I hear Seth sigh and he comes to stand beside me “Poor boy.....what’s mom said?” He asks as I feel his eyes on me...

I shrug again lightly answering vaguely “That it could be something he ate last night...” I tell him “And to give him rest...”

Seth nods.....eyes adverting from me for a second, then back to me....”Lexi...?” he trails off....

I let out a sigh, taking the spoon out of the cup dropping it into the sink as I’ve finished mixing the milk “What?” I say a bit too sharply turning around holding the cup and looking to my twin boredly....

Seth looks at me with a small frown “What’s wrong?....what have I done?”

I nearly roll my eyes at that, if he doesn’t know what....then why does he expect me to tell him?...surely he can work it out himself....seeing as I thought he would tell me when we got home last night, that didn’t happen.....so if he doesn’t know...then I’m not telling him...

Brushing past him I ignore his question, walking out of the kitchen towards the stairs, with Tom’s cold drink in my hand....

“Lexi?...please....what is it?....are just worried about Tom?...because don’t be, he’ll be fine..”

“No...no...it’s not just Tom” I cut him off narrowing my eyes as I climb the stairs, with him following

“Then what?” he asks, again.

“Oh I dunno.... maybe because instead of having someone you trust tell you something important....you have to find out yourself....but then they don’t even admit it!...” I ramble out annoyed now

“Just forget it Seth.....I’ve got to see Tom” I tell him reaching the top of the stairs....and turning in the direction of Tom’s room.

Sighing to myself, I shake my head.....I’ll deal with Seth later.....because right now, this little man is more important...

Creeking open the bedroom door quietly, I enter a dim light room. The curtains drawn and only the night light glowing, giving just enough light....

I tip toe in, seeing a figure curled up on the bed I creep towards it, placing the glass on the bedside table...before gazing down at the sleeping boy....

I sigh silently to myself, biting my lip as I see that instead of the peaceful, adorable sleeping face of Tom...I see a screwed up pained one....as he sleeps...

I sigh gain, kneeling down at his bedside, reaching my hand out and gently bushing his hair to the side...hearing his quiet little snores tells me he’s asleep, even if it’s not a peaceful one, at least he’s asleep.....he need it.

Last night was, to put it bluntly, chaos.

Tom was up half the night, crying. As much as it me to hear his cries throughout the house....I just couldn’t go into his room, seeing him in pain is like torture. Pure, bittersweet torture.

Mom took care of him, as well as some of my brothers, not knowing what’s wrong, except that he has a horrible stomach ache....and was sick a couple of times, maybe down to the crying, or the pain. But either way..... mom thinks it’s possibly food poising, he must have eaten something dodgy last night because we didn’t have an eye on him all the time, so who knows....

But if he’s no better by tomorrow.... mom’s gunna go to the doctors I think.

Stroking down the side of his cute little cheek.....He suddenly whimpers in his sleep and my hand freezes as his body tenses...curling up again...

“Tom?” I whisper quietly...wondering if he’s actually awake...

A mumbling noise comes from his mouth and I see his eye lids flutter, so now I know he’s waking up...

“Tom?” I whisper again, carrying on stroking his cheek

His eyes peel open, the usual bright baby blue eyes of his are still bright...but you can see the pain in them...

“Tom? Honey....” I whisper trailing off as my voice breaks, hate seeing him like this...I sigh, standing up before gently scooping him up into my arms before sitting back down on his bed, getting comfy and having the small boy laying with me...his head buried into my chest as I cradle him, like a baby really....his hands still clamped around his belly, as if their permanently glued there....

I rock him gently, soothing him....hoping this will help as I rest my head on top of his.....

He’ll be okay....

“Lex”

I close my eyes silently sighing as I hear Seth enter my room shutting the door behind him....

Great, he’s found me.

I slowly raise my head from only staring blankly at some work for school...that I haven’t even started and look up to where my twin stands....

“You’re avoiding me” he tells me not as a question but as a statement...

I shrug moving my gaze back down to my empty work “And so what if I am?”

“Lexxii!” He groans running a hand through his hair looking at me with almost pleading eyes “Look...I’m sorry for whatever I’ve done...but please, stop acting like this, you’re making me feel the same way...”

I raise my head up again and glare at him “Good!” I snap, he should feel the same, he didn’t tell me!...didn’t tell me he’s with her!...didn’t even give me an excuse to where he was all light last night.....just turned back up a few minutes till we left...smiling like he just won something...

He gave me no explanation.....to why he spent the whole night with her!.....is there something going on there?...because if there is....he didn’t tell me either!

“What is it Lex?...what’s put you in this mood?”

I cross my arms glaring at him “You tell me!” I snap back “You’re the one who went god knows where last night, leaving me alone....having no idea where you went... .you didn’t even tell me!”

Looking at me confused he asks “Tell you what?”

I scoff flapping my arms “Tell you where you were!....instead I had to find out with my own eyes!....suddenly walking out there and spotting you with her!? Seth! Are you mad?......April?!”

I see him stiffen, something flashing in his eyes too quickly for me to pick up on and then he sighs a long sigh, dropping his shoulder “Lex.....I was gunna tell you...”

“Tell me what huh?!” I cut him off “Tell me that you ditched me to be with her?!...some stuck up, evil little bi-“

“No!” Seth cuts in, frowning at me “Don’t call her that...” he mumbles and I blink, staring at him not quite believing I heard what he just said...

“Sorry......what?” I blink shaking my head...

Seth looks back up to me...with a simple look “I said don’t call her that....Lexi you no right to, you hardly know her!....if you gave her a chance then maybe, just maybe you’ll get to like her...”

“What just like you did you mean?..” I scoff rolling my eyes but freeze when I see Seth make no move and look to the ground....

“No....” I whisper, processing everything I just heard in my head, staring at my twin as I get a feel of emotions that I know for sure aren’t mine....

“W-what?...h-how?” I shake my head frowning “Seth....what?”

Hearing him sigh he lifts his head back up to looking at me “Look...I don’t want to argue with you Lex, nothing will change...you’re still going to be number one, I’ll always be here for you.....but...but...”

“You’re going out with April” I say bluntly, finishing of his sentence of once again, knowing that’s what he was going to say.

Glancing at me nervously.....Seth nods his head and just as he does it feels as if I’ve been punched in the gut, punched as some sort of sick Karma....

“I’m sorry I didn’t tell you Lex sooner...I wanted to...but I didn’t know how you’ll react.... I know you don’t really like her much...” that’s an understatement “so....I wasn’t sure...but please Lex, please...for me.....please try and get along...” I look up into his eyes as he grabs my hands, looking down at me with a pleading look....

Chewing the inside of my cheek...I hold back all the angry words and shouts that I want to throw at him, and hold back the urge to run next door and slap the crap out of April....because I know that if I don’t hold them back....it would take longer to make it up to Seth....

So instead...I let out a deep sigh looking to the floor...and ever so slightly...give a tiny nod.

And that’s all it takes for Seth to know what I’m saying, without the need of words.

I’m telling him that’s it’s okay by me.

And in the next moment Seth’s arms wrap around me, wrapping me up into a tight hug “Thank you Lex...” He whispers “love you twin, this won’t change anything...”

I squeeze my eyes shut hugging him back “Love you too...” I whisper out into his neck.....only agreeing with this because I want something good to happen in his life, even if that means dating this evil girl....

But I swear....if she even hurts him in the slightest way....

She’s gunna get it back ten times as worse, and won’t know what’s hit her.

~~~

“No! NO! Listen...he’s ill!...he needs to go see someone! He cannot cope any more the poor thing...”

Rushing down the corridor, all the lights on I come to a halt outside Tom’s room heart pounding as I see that everyone else is up, all crowding the hallway half asleep but alerted...and can hear Tom’s heart clenching cries from inside the room...

“What’s going on?!” I asked panicked wanting to get through into his room....

Charles who is stood at the entrance of his room looks to me with a worried look “It’s Tom...” He tells me “We don’t think he’s got any better....if not worse...”

I feel a my stomach drop and my eyes widen...no, no....not Tom!....he’s gotta be okay!

Shoving my way into the room, even as they try to grab me back...I stop just inside, seeing weirdly enough Noah’s mother, Ruby stood in the room peering worriedly at Tom and also Aston and Blake in the room at my brothers bed side who’s curled up sobbing the bed sheets wet and rolling around in pain, and also my mom’s in here...with a phone clutched at her hand...

“mom?” I ask, my voice slightly raising in alarm...

Turning her head to me...I see she has tears in her eyes, along with a frantic/worried expression as she can’t bare to see her youngest son like this, just like I can’t stand to see my younger brother like this....

And then she speaks a few words that fill my veins with fear....

“I’m calling 911...”
