Chapter 5
It wasn't that late when Kyle arrived home so everyone was still up.
"Hey mate, your Uncle is staying on a motel with your cousins." Heath smiles.
Kyle just nods in response.
"Your cousin Anton is awesome, he is a really good MMA fighter." Casey grins.
"Yea." Kyle replies.
"It's funny how you are all related." Heath laughs.
"Yea your cousins are huge, and look at you" Casey laughs.
Everything just hit Kyle hard and he was sick of it, for the first time he let his guard down.
"Shut up okay, I know their huge can we just stop talking about it!" Kyle yells and rushes outside.
Brax and Heath rush outside to check on their brother.
"Mate?" Heath asks.
Kyle felt like he wanted to tell his brothers.
"You've been acting wierd lately." Brax frowns.
"Look guys I'm fine." Kyle smiles.
"You sure?" Heath asks.
"Yep." Kyle sighs.
Kyle knew that he should tell his brothers but he didn't want them to think he was weak and that he couldn't fight his own battles.
"Fine mate, i'm going to Yabbie Creak with Ricky all day tomorrow so just keep the place tidy. " Brax sighs.
"Wait where are you going Heath?" Kyle asks.
"To see Darcy. " Heath smiles.
"And Casey?" Kyle mumbles.
"Out with Sasha, Rosie and Dex all day. " Brax smiles.
"We called your Uncle and he's coming over so don't worry you won't be alone." Heath grins.
"He's coming here and none of you guys are home." Kyle mutters.
"Yea, whats the issue Kylie." Heath smiles.
"Nothing." Kyle forces a smile.
"Well I'm going to bed." Kyle fake yawns and rushes off to his bedroom.
Brax looks at Heath.
"Something is up." Brax frowns.
"Brax, he's fine just relax." Heath laughs.
In Kyle's room, Kyle was dreading the day to come, his Uncle and cousins would lay into him so bad, the last time Kyle didn't do something his Uncle told him to do he was left with his life hanging in the balance.
flashback
15 year old Kyle was playing on his guitar in his closet sized room when there was a knock at the door.
"Kylie, dad wants you." Anton grunts.
Kyle put down his gutair and went downstairs.
"Kyle get over here you little shit." Duncan snarls.
Kyle slowly makes his way to his Uncle.
" I told you to not eat unless i give you permission" Duncan snarls grabbing Kyle by the shirt.
"I'm sorry." Kyle mumbles.
" oh you're sorry that fixes it." Duncan hisses throwing Kyle to the ground.
"Please." Kyle begs.
"you are pathetic, 15 years old and you look like you're about to cry." Duncan snarls.
He starts to kick Kyle in the ribs really hard.
" Please." Kyle begs again on the verge of tears.
He then grabs Kyle and bodyslams him to the ground.
"Ahhhhhhh." Kyle screams as the pain in his body increases.
Over and over his uncle kept hitting him the last thing Kyle remembers was seeing his uncles fist coming straight at his left eye.
end of flashback
Kyle took off his shirt and turns towards the mirror and looked to his torso it was so bruised with big purple bruises that his Uncle and cousins have given him since they have been here.
Kyle checked his pockets for his phone.
" Seriously." Kyle mumbles he had left his phone at work.
He grabbed a t-shirt and his jacket and walked out to the lounge.
" I'll be back soon. " Kyle mumbles.
" Where are you going? " Bianca asks.
"Left my phone at work." Kyle sighs.
"Take the Ute. " Ricky smiles.
"Na I'll walk, i feel like a nice walk." Kyle smiles.
"But you walked home from work." Bianca laughs.
Kyle just shrugs.
"Fine but don't be too late it's about to get bad out there. " Ricky smiles.
"I'll be home in plenty of time don't worry mum." Kyle laughs and ducks to avoid a pillow being thrown at him.
Kyle shut the front door and started walking towards Angelos, he hated that he still had to act like there was nothing wrong but as he kept walking he decided screw it he was going to tell Brax and Heath as soon as he got home that means his uncle wouldn't be able to hurt him anymore, sure it would look like he was a wimp but Kyle knew what his Uncle and cousins were capable of and Kyle knew that they would be their absolute worst tomorrow.
Kyle was unlocking the surf club doors to open the restaurant when there was a knock on his head which made him loose conciseness but not before he realised he was dragged into a car.
Later on in the Braxton house, Brax was freaking out.
"Where the fuck is he." Brax frowns.
" Who?" Heath asks.
" Kyle, the girls said that he was going to the restaurant to pick up his phone and he's not back yet." Brax frowns.
" How long ago did he leave?" Heath asks.
" Ricky said a hour ago." Brax sighs He was worried for his younger brother.
" Have you tried to call him?" Heath asks.
" No the thought didn't cross my mind." Brax mutters sarcastically.
" Of course of tried to call him you idiot it was the first thing i did. " Brax frowns.
Casey comes in from his room.
"Hey, where's Kyle? " Casey asks.
"We don't know." Brax mumbles.
"Let's hope he's okay, let's go to bed I'm sure he'll be back later." Heath sighs.
Casey headed off to his room followed by Heath, but Brax stayed up, he was worried for Kyle.
After another 2 hours he got extremely worried and woke Heath up.
Meanwhile Kyle was slowly waking up.
"Dad, he's awake." Anton comes over and grab Kyle by the hood of his jacket and pulls him to his feet.
"Where's my money." Duncan snarls.
"I don't have it. " Kyle mumbles.
"You stupid boy, Anton warned you." Duncan laughs as Kyle tries to get away from him.
He twists Kyle's arm across his back until Kyle screams with pain.
Duncan then throws Kyle towards the ground and grins at his sons.
" Do your worst boys, there's no doubt Kylie will tell his big brothers the first chance he gets." Duncan laughs.
Suddenly all three of the boys start punching and kicking Kyle.
Kyle does he's absolute best to stay awake but the pain is too much for him and he drifts into darkness.
