Kyle and Casey were sitting awkwardly on the couch, they were only thirty minutes into their two-hour lock-in.
"I am really sorry Kyle, about what I said about your Mum and all the things that I said about you and that I teased you for being bullied." Casey sighs knowing that he doesn't deserve full forgiveness but he did want Kyle to know that he was regretting it.
"It's alright Case, I get it Tamara and I dating is hard on you." Kyle huffs and avoids Casey's eyes. Mentioning Tamara probably wasn't such a good idea.
"It's no excuse Kyle and I know it I was just so angry." Casey sighs. he knew all along that it was wrong to treat Kyle and Tamara the way that he did but he just couldn't stop himself from saying it, he was so angry.
"YOU WERE ANGRY! That's your reason!" Kyle yells he was furious, High School was hell for him and Casey's excuse for teasing I'm about it was that he was angry.
"Yes, and I'm sorry alright!" Casey sighs, he knew that he had some making up to do with Kyle.
"You're sorry well isn't that just great! I was bullied so and although High School and it was brutal, there were 10 of them! Do you really think that it was funny? 10 kids! When you get picked on by that amount of people you feel powerless and you know that you cant do anything to stop it so you just have to stand there and cope it. Everyday Case!" Kyle yells and gets frustrated and starts pacing. He was so angry but he was also emotional talking about High School. He knew that he had accepted Casey's apology but he just had to get all this off his chest.
"Kyle, I'm an idiot okay. I'm sorry, please I know that it will take you a bit to fully forgive me or forget what happened, I just need to know that you will. you're my brother and I know I've screwed up but I would love a chance to fix it." Casey sighs really hoping that Kyle will be able to give him a chance, he had been stupid and Casey knew that. He wanted to have Kyle in his life as a brother.
Kyle runs his hands through his hair and turns to his brother and sits back next to him. "I'd like that Casey and I'm sorry as well. I know that the way I handled it wasn't the best. I need you to know that Tamara and I never intended to hurt you." Kyle sighs and looks at Casey nervously, he was wondering if Casey was going to turn back on him at the mention of Tamara.
"Cheers Kyle, can I ask you a question?" Casey asks. He needed to know something. he had to know this.
"Yea." Kyle sighs.
"Why didn't you just tell someone?" Casey asks, he was sure that if he was treated as horribly as Kyle was he would have told someone. Anyone! He would want it to end.
"Teachers really liked them, all of them so they hid it really well, everything that they shoved me in my locker or in bins they would just sweet talk their way out of being caught or even sometimes blame others. Once they shoved me in a bin and blamed it on another kid, he ended up getting expelled, they just did what they wanted when they wanted to do it, it sucked. I couldn't do anything." Kyle sighs and cracks his knuckles in the attempt to not concentrate too much on what he was talking about.
"But what about your foster family, surely your foster siblings went to the same school as you and saw how you were treated and surely they stood up for you." Casey sighs, he was sure that if someone who actually knew him saw how he was treated then they'd help him.
Kyle laughs a sad little laugh. "They couldn't care less, they even picked on me at home." Kyle sighs and turns lightly to Casey. "No one ever stuck up for me, I guess that's why I wanted Brax to love me the way that he loves you guys, he was the first person since my Mum died to really be there for me." Kyle sighs drop his head again, all he wanted was love from his eldest brother. He had lived without it in his life for so long.
"That must have sucked, sorry to hear that you went through that." Casey sighs, he didn't know that it was all that serious. He couldn't imagine going through something like that.
"Yea it really did suck and it's all good Case." Kyle sighs, he didn't understand why he was picked on and especially didn't understand why no one helped him.
"I'm sure Brax and Heath would have beaten them all up if you would have been with us." Casey smiles lightly at Kyle who smirks lightly back.
"That's comforting." Kyle laughs lightly and shows Casey lightly. "You should make a day job out of making pep talks." He smirks.
Casey smirks lightly at his brother before shoving him back. "Shut up." he laughs lightly and pins Kyle down to the couch. "Do you give?" he asks.
"No!" Kyle smirks and rolls over so that Casey lands on the floor. he smirks down at his younger brother. "Hows the weather down there?' he asks laughing lightly at his younger brother.
"Same as you, we are inside," Casey replies cheekily grinning at his older brother causing them both to laugh.
In the shared house everyone was listening to the laughter coming from the flat.
"Sounds like it's going well." Ricky smiles and sits down on the couch next to Tamara who looks nervous. "Tam its going to be okay, look those two boofheads are going to make up and then it'll all get easier." She smiles lightly at Tamara and runs her back lightly.
"I just want my baby to grow up in a nice family environment, you no one with no drama, one without any conflict." Tamara starts only to be interrupted by Brax.
"Tamara if no drama is what you are looking for in a family then you've picked the wrong family but you know that Kyle will do everything in his power to make sure that this baby grows up in a loving family." Brax sighs, his half-brother had had a hard life growing up but that meant that he really wanted a better life for his kids.
"I know that Kyle will try but this whole thing with Casey, it's scaring me if the kid is Caseys, then Kyle won't be the Dad, he will be my babies stepdad slash father figure slash uncle, how can my baby grow up like that." Tamara sighs, she was so scared about what her babies life would be like, it wasn't like that she could say that Casey couldn't see the baby if he did end up being the Dad.
"The boys are big on family, they will fix it. Casey just needs to grow up and Kyle just needs to forgive him, which he will and if they don't then I will bang there heads together." Brax sighs and grabs a beer for himself and Heath.
"Yea, your right." Tamara smiles lightly. She knew that they were right she just had to take a breath and realize that.
"It happens." Brax smiles and sits back down keeping half an eye on what was going on in the flat.
Kyle and Casey were now seriously bored, why was there lock in for two hours. one hour would have been long enough, but no their older brothers were so annoying that they just had to make it a long time.
"So why do we have to stay in her for another hour." Casey huffs and looks out the window half tempted to take a run for it. Him and Kyle had sorted out their differences and they were all good now so why couldn't they leave.
"Because our brothers and major pains in the butt." Kyle huffs from the couch and leans over and looks through the window as well. "You know that if we do make a run for it they really will bash our heads together." He sighs lightly and starts channel surfing. Nothing good was on!
"We could bash their heads together." Casey smiles lightly, he knew that it wasn't a good idea. He also knew that if they actually did it then they'd end up worse.
'Sure, then they'll start planning our funerals." Kyle claims dramatically. He knew that they wouldn't actually hurt them but knowing Heath he would be tempted.
"Oh come on stop being such a drama queen, look Heaths keys are on the table lets nab them and go to town." Casey smiles grabbing the keys and holds them up. "Bags driving." He smiles lightly.
"So you want us to not only sneak out but take Heaths car and I thought that you stopped wanting me dead." Kyle smiles lightly only to slump down and look at the clock, the time hadn't changed much.
"I told you to stop being so dramatic now come on, it'll be fun and we will be bonding." Casey smiles and twirls the keys around his finger.
"This is a bad idea." Kyle sighs but pushes himself up, him and Casey crouch low to the ground to hide from the view of the window and go get in Heaths car which luckily for them was parked in the street rather than the driveway and they jump in.
"See we're safe." Casey laughs and starts to drive towards town.
Sorry this chapter is shorter and that it took me so long to post. I hope you liked it though. I decided that Kyle and Casey should make up because I just love brotherly bonding and want to have some between the two youngest Braxton's, especially because I love to write them complaining about the two older Braxton brothers. Some of this bonding is going to be while they are in town.
