22-year-old Kyle Braxton woke up in the morning and he was thinking of Tamara. He loved her and he wanted her but his brother Casey wanted her as well, and of course Brax and Heath wanted her to be with Casey. Couldn't they see that he loved her to bits, that she was his life? At work, in bed and all during the day the only thing that was going through his head was Tamara. He heard a knock on his door.

"Oi, you're opening up the restaurant!" Brax yells through the door. Kyle rolled his eyes, this was ridiculous he had had about 5 hours sleep by the time he had finally got home, had something to eat and showered and now it was 7:40 and here Brax was banging on his door telling him he's opening up the restaurant, He had other staff. Why'd it always have to be him?

"I closed up last night, I got in at 1!" Kyle yells back. He was sick of Brax using him as a puppet sometimes.

"Well, I'm your boss, so get your butt out of bed before I kick it!" Brax hisses.

Kyle rested his head on his pillow. Why couldn't he be older than Brax, Brax and Heath always threatened him especially at the moment with all the love triangle drama going on with Case and Tamara.

"On the count of 10, you better be out here." Brax hisses. Kyle mimicked his brother feeling childish back frankly he didn't care he had only had 5 hours sleep and he was exhausted. He was being ruled by the big brother. Kyle thought it was ridiculous at times what Brax asked of him especially when he got nothing out of it.

"One, two" Brax warns.

Kyle wondered if Brax was really counting down or if he was just bluffing he lay on the bed getting as much rest as he could.

"Three." Brax hisses.

Okay so maybe he was serious and Kyle thought he better get moving soon.

"Four," Brax yells.

Kyle shoves the blankets off him and sat up, running a hand through his hair. He thought he better get moving Brax was always one to keep his promises even the threatening kind.

"Five." Brax hisses.

Sighing he pushes himself out of bed. He was so tired his body was sore and overworked, couldn't Brax see that. No, because Brax was probably too angry at him to care.

"Six, Seven," Brax yells through the door.

Kyle changes into his work clothes, why did he have to do it, He worked a double shift yesterday and nearly fainted serving a customer now he had to open up. Everything was about Casey. If Casey wasn't happy no one was.

"EIGHT." Brax hisses.

Kyle opened the door. Staring at his brother with his famous death glare.

"Happy." He sighs.

"Watch the cheek, Kyle." Brax hisses.

Kyle rolls his eyes. Brax was really in a bad mood this morning and it wasn't even eight.

"Why are you in such a foul mood?" Kyle groans.

"Because you are still hanging about with Tamara and it's getting close to serious." Brax hisses

Kyle rolled his eyes Brax was really frustrating him now. Of course, it was about Tamara, Kyle was sick of standing up for himself about this.

"I love her, I'm not apologizing for that." Kyle hisses.

Brax thumps him on the head.

"Casey's your brother and you stole his girl, forgive me if I want an apology" Brax hisses.

Kyle rubs his head, Brax had given him a fair big thump and it kinda hurt.

"It's always about Casey, isn't it! I love Tamara and she might love me back so I don't frankly give a damn what you all think because she is the first girl in a long time that I have fallen in love with! I care for her. What about Casey and Sasha, he dumped her, broke her heart all to be with Tamara and he's didn't get half the abuse I'm getting.

"Just get to work we'll finish this conversation when you get back, oh and Kyle you're working a double shift today" Brax hisses.

"Are you kidding you can't do that." Kyle groans. He wasn't rostered on for another double shift.

"Hey, Brax I'm off to work." Casey sighs shoulder barging Kyle on the way out. Which of course was unnoticed by Brax.

"See ya Case, we'll fix this issue later, oh I can and I will Kyle now get to work." Brax hisses.

"I need to finish getting ready," Kyle grunts making his way to the bathroom.

He had worked so hard to be apart of this family and then it plummeted all because he wanted to be with a girl he really liked. Who would he choose he had always wanted a real family, growing up in a foster home does that to you but what if Tamara was the one, He quickly cleaned his teeth and did his hair. He sighed loudly what if it got to the point where he had to choose between the family that he had always wanted and the girl of his dreams. Why was his life so complicated.

He makes his way back to the lounge.

"See ya Brax." Kyle sighs heading out the door.

Brax looked up momentarily but then looked at his magazine again. Ricky was listening to the conversation between Brax and Kyle from the flat and gave Kyle a small wave and smile as he went.

"Brax." She sighs sitting next to her boyfriend.

"I don't want to hear it, Rick." He grunts continuing to look at the magazine.

"Well you're going to, look Kyle's 22 he's basically still a kid, you know he's always felt something for Tamara, even when she hated him he adored her." Ricky sighs trying to show it to Brax from Kyle's perspective.

"So he had a stupid crush how's that my problem." Brax grunts, he hated seeing his little brother hurt and his other little brother being with his ex-girlfriend would cause that.

"He's your brother as well Brax. Don't forget that, He's a Braxton and you guys are the only family he's got at least you all have Cheryl, Kyle doesn't Kyle has no one but you guys to look after him " Ricky hisses, she loved Casey but she also loved Kyle and she just wished that Brax and Heath would not try to make Casey happy but Kyle as well.

"Yea he's my brother that stole my other brother's girl." Brax hisses, he didn't know why Ricky couldn't understand that he didn't want Kyle and Tamara together for Casey's sake.

"Answer me this Brax what if Kyle had Tamara first and he was the one with a broken heart, would you feel different." Ricky sighs and grabs her board to go for a surf.

Brax sits back in his chair, maybe he wasn't treating Kyle like a brother but he was still with the girl that Casey loved. Why did Kyle and Casey have to be in a love triangle? It was obvious that Tamara loved them both, they are both good blokes who care for her. but they were brothers. Brax knew that he had to understand that Tamara had a say in this as well. If she was with Kyle it was because she loved him not because Kyle wanted to hurt Casey.

"You can't help who you fall in love with," Brax whispers remembering Kyle telling him that a while ago when things were even more complicated.

Sighing he grabbed his keys and decided that it was time to sort this out.
