Casey lay down on the sofa, he was exhausted and his head was banging, he supposed the cold he'd had and surfing was not the best mix. Putting it down to dehydration he'd come home to get a drink and chill out for a bit. He loved living near the beach, the sand and the wave's right on their door step. This finally felt like home. He switched the TV on but as his eyes began to feel heavier and heavier he gave into sleep.
Brax walked in the door and saw his little brother asleep, he smiled to himself, 'he looks just like he did when he was little.' Brax thought to himself. Heath followed him in and saw Casey asleep. He jumped over the back of the sofa landing right on top of him.
'Oi!' Casey shouted, pushing Heath off of him, Brax chortled while Heath was laughing his head off.
'I'm going to my room, got a headache' Casey told Brax, trying to ignore Heath.
…
'Oi, Case! You coming for dinner' yelled Brax.
'Yeah, yeah give me a minute' said Casey waking up to a dull headache, he walked into the room and slumped down on the chair.
'What's up with you?' inquired Brax.
'Headache.' grumbled Casey
'Ya wuss,' said Heath
The brothers sat down in front of the TV and tucked into the pizza, Casey nibbled on his piece, he wasn't actually very hungry, he put it down to the headache and told Brax he was going to bed. Hoping his headache would be gone by tomorrow, he had school and his exams where in a few months.
…
Casey woke up the next morning, to his sheets covered in sweat, he went and took a shower, in attempt to cool down. The cold water felt good against his clammy skin. He stepped out wrapping his towel around the lower half of his sore body and went through for breakfast.
'Case you look awful,' said Brax.
'Thanks,' grumbled Casey, 'Didn't sleep well, was all sweaty, think I've got a temperature, might go back to bed.'
As he turned around Brax saw all the bruises around his spine. 'Oh God, Casey' he said in shock.
'What?' said Casey, turning round to face Brax, feeling very dizzy, he felt himself drop down to the floor
