Chapter 4
Laura's P.O.V.
"My brother sat down beside me and Yumi on my other side.
"Laura, can you tell me what happened?" Bo questioned. I just nodded because I wasn't sure if my voice would work right. Then he asked if I would tell him what happened. I just couldn't. I didn't move or say anything, and I know it tore Bo up, so I could tell just by listing to him speak. Then he said that if couldn't tell him to please talk to Yumi or Aelita about what Odd said. He had started to rub my back to get me to calm down. Normally my brother can get me to calm down, but Odd's yelling at me keeps playing in my head. Was Odd even sorry that he yelled? Did he even love me to begin with, or he just wanted to feel important?
Bo started to speak again. "I'm your brother. I promised to watch out for you and take care of you and I will. I promise."
"Laura, are you hungry? Yumi said. "Today's lunch is some what eatable today." She laughed to try to get me in a better mood.
"Are you sure about that?" My brother chuckled. His laugh is just like Dad's. I think that's why I always trust my brother.
"I can leave if you just want to speak with Yumi. If that would be easier on you because I don't want to see you hurt. It hurts me too."
I had quit crying, and noticed that I was a little hungry, so I looked over to see what my brother had brought me for lunch. It was chicken fingers and a potato with a salad and a brownie for desert and chocolate milk to drink.
My brother saw me looking over at the food and asked me if I wanted him to bring me my food. I nodded and he got up and brought it over.
"Do you want me to leave for awhile? I don't mind if you just want to talk with Yumi." Bo said.
"Please, I just need time to gather my thoughts. Just promise me you want cause any trouble." I pleaded with him.
"If it helps you feel better, then I won't hurt Odd, not yet anyways. I am gonna ask him what he said though. Is that alright? Bo asked.
"Ok, just no violence I have seen how you get when you are mad and when someone hurts me even a little. Laura said sadly.
"For you, Sis, I will try a lot harder not to fight." My brother said smiling a smile. I know he is still fighting in his heart to become who he once was.
I got up and hugged my brother and went and sat back down with Yumi to eat. Bo had taken his food and left to go eat. I sat down and started to eat some of the salad my brother had brought me. He is always looking out for me and I know I am safe when he is around.
"Laura?" Yumi said making me snapping back to reality.
"Sorry Yumi, I was thinking."
"Well will you tell me what happened with Odd? Yumi asked. I looked at her and figured that Bo wouldn't eaves drop on me, so I told her what happened. After explaining it to Yumi, boy ,she was pissed. She had never heard of Odd doing that before.
"I couldn't believe it either." I said while fighting tears back.
Just then there was a knock at my brother door. I was about to ask who it was, but the door opened and Aelita came in though. She was more of sister to Bo and me. Bo told her to call him big bro or brother if she wanted, and she usually does. Bo's heart healed a lot that day finding out we had family. Be told Aelita the same thing he told me when we found each other. You are my family, and I will watch out for and protect you. My brother is just like our dad. He will stand up for his family and fight till his body should quit, and then keep going.
"Bo told me that you and Odd had a fight, Laura. I am sorry." Aelita said. I got up, hugged Yumi and her, and told them thanks for being my friends.
"Bo only told me what he saw, and he asked if I would come to talk with you too." Aelita said.
"Thanks Aelita. How was the movie with Jeremy?" I asked. I was hoping to try to change the subject.
"It was great." Aelita said, "But I am here to see how you are doing."
I knew she wasn't going to give up so I told her what I told Yumi. Now Aelita looked mad and I had never heard her cuss before. It threw Yumi and me for a loop to hear that word some out of her mouth so I decided to have a little fun with her.
"Aelita, do you use that mouth to kiss Jeremy with?" I asked. She just turned as red as a beet.
Yumi and I were laughing our heads off.
"I am kidding, Aelita." I said.
She just looked at the ground for a minute and was about to say some thing when her phone went off.
She said it was Jeremy.
"Hello" she answered but before she could say anything else her face turned white.
"What is it? An XANA attack?" I asked hoping to let off a little steam. She hung up her phone and said we need to get to the park now.
"Why? What is wrong?" I asked. She started to relay Jeremy's message.
"Bo is about to square off with Odd and Ulrich, and he couldn't stop him. He said Odd wouldn't shut up and Ulrich sided with Odd."
"Oh my goodness! Bo could kill them. We got to hurry" said Yumi as we ran out of my brother's dorm to get to the park.
Yumi and I were the first to get there to see Odd and Ulrich both on the ground and Bo still standing ready to keep fighting. Jeremy was staying out of the way. Yumi and I ran and got between Bo, Odd and Ulrich. I grabbed my brother arm and begged him to please stop.
"Bo, you promised me that you weren't gonna fight." I pleaded with tears in my eyes, "Bo looked at me" I said, and then I saw that his eyes were like ice. He had no feeling what so ever but as soon as he locked eyes with me they returned to the eyes of my brother. I could see that he was sorry about breaking his promise to me. He pulled me into a hug and started to say he was sorry over and over. I just held onto him trying to get my brother to calm down.
But what I heard next was shocking.
