The Brothers

This one is going to be in Eli's point of view.

"Fine, I'll go, I'm sorry Ruby." I had said as I walked out of the bedroom I had given Ruby.

Why the f**k had I actually told her what had happened that night. Why did I have to mess up the best friendship that I had ever had with someone just because I let my heart do the talking. I was stupid that's why.

I walked out of the house slamming the door and walking out to the woods where I took my poor anger out on some tree. My fists collided with it, marking up the bark but I felt absolutely no pain, The anger that was pouring through me was enough to fully mask the pain that I would have felt. I screamed and yelled as each one of my fists collided with the tree.

I heard a soft chuckle from behind a tree, but I paid no attention to it until a figure emerged from behind the tree.

"Letting our anger get the best of us are we?" The voice spoke.

He was not the person that I needed to see right about now. In-fact he was the one that I needed to avoid.

"What the f**k do you want?" I all but growled.

"To talk, after all we are-"

I cut him off.

"Don't you dare say it Mason. Don't f*****g speak another word. I ought' to kill you after what I found out. Why the f**k are you here?" I spat angrily.

This only made him laugh more, "Darling brother Eli. I have come to take back what's mine of course. Ruby. You see we had a tad bit of a misunderstanding. She ran away and I just knew that she would be back here with you."

"Mason, you are not to lay a f*****g finger on her. Do you understand me."

I was thrown up against a tree by Mason and held by my neck.

"Don't forget little brother, I will kill you. I am a lot stronger than you are. Due to a little mishap.
I could kill you if I just moved my hand the wrong way." Mason hissed.

"I don't care if you try to kill me, you are not going to get your hands on Ruby, do you understand me you a*****e."

"Eli, listen to me. She isn't even worth your time. Do you understand that you have just gave away the biggest and one of the only secrets that you have kept from her for a while now. About that night, she probably want's nothing to do with you. She probably hates your slimy filthy guts. Have you considered that much?" Mason smirked as if he had just won the battle.

"Right Mason and think about what you did to her, do you think she honestly likes you any better? You raped her. How could she ever even begin to love someone like you. someone who took away her innocence." I spat.

"Little do you realize brother, we both share a secret, one that I can give away just as easily as I breathe." He chuckled.

"You wouldn't do that Mason. Even you aren't that low."

"Oh but I am."

"No you are not Mason."

"Watch me."

The next thing I know it's lights out for me.

I woke up the next morning out on the cold floor of the woods, rain was steadily pouring around me in a heavy rain. I groaned and rubbed my head trying to think of what happened then it came back to me.

My backstabbing egotistical brother. Mason.

He probably has my precious Ruby right now. Doing God only know's what to her.

I ran quickly back up to the house moving as fast as my feet would take me and rushing into her bedroom.

A sigh of relief overcame me when I saw a sleeping Ruby bundled up under the covers with a content look on her face.

Thank God. Was all that I could think at that moment in time, she was safe but only for now. I knew what had to come next. I would have to either tell her every last detail and risk her walking out of my life forever.

Or I could flee.
