"Theo." I hear my brothers soft calming yet deep voice. He used to caress my shoulder while I can't stop crying. My face and my body was hurting me so bad. "I promise you they won't hurt you anymore, I'll take care of him." I raise my head and I look into his eyes. He made me shiver. His eyes were filled with uncontrollable rage.

I felt his warm arms around my broken body, cleaning those nasty scars on my nude fragile body. I was feeling the hot water from the shower on my rough skin the dirt was impregnated in my skin. That time I could not say anything, only cry for hours. I felt weary but my brother was there for me.

Only he could understand me and love me. He was the single person that I trusted blindly. "They won't hurt you anymore, I promise you, Theo. So don't cry anymore, your brother will get rid of your pain..."

But now I'm all alone in the whole world I can't cry anymore my tears seemed to dry up and I feel nothing but void.

I open my eyes feeling sick and nearly having the urge to vomit. I noticed I had tear stains on my dull face. It was just another dream. I look around and saw that I only slept ten minutes. I wipe my tears and hide myself under the blanket to not let anyone see me in this state.

Ty would probably laugh at me for weeks. I hear a buzz and I look around. It was my phone. Shaking I pick it up from my jeans pocket and I noticed it's a message from an unknown number.

"Hope you're feeling better today. I told you, if you need help, I'll be there" - Eziel.

Should I reply back? I wondered, trying to forget my dream. He was a stranger who took me, the useless shit out from a puddle without asking me why I was like that. Beside him was another guy, with glasses and looking serious but his face was showing that he could be gentle as well.

He was concerned about Eziel who had a pallid look with skinny body. His eyes had the same deepness and darkness like they were in mine. He had a messy look, like he didn't care about anything anymore. We talked a bit that night. Mostly the other guy talked and asked me questions; I barely said anything. My body was trembling and I had a high fever.

"I'm feeling completely drained but I'm fine." I could have lied telling him that I'm super but for some reason I felt I could trust this stranger.

After a few more minutes I checked my phone and saw a new message. It was short with a single ok and a smiling emoticon. For some reason it made me giggle, not paying any attention to Ty, who was standing in front of me looking at me like he wanted to say something.

"Take a shower then I'm taking you home.'' After saying that he turned his back once again left me with some of his clothes to wear and two pills for my headache. He still had the same pink color in his cheeks. He was acting creepy for some weird unknown reason.

"Why am I here?" I ask him suddenly. "What happened at the party?" I wanted to know. He turns around and he only tells me that I drank like crazy the whole night but Blake was too busy to notice.

"In short... Towards the morning we left early and I forgot to let them all know, so if someone asks, just say that we went to drink coffee nothing less nothing more ." He said looking at me. But I was feeling awkward as if he was looking through my soul at the same time. "I just didn't want you, the idiot, to spoil Blake's good mood. His 18th birthday party for God's sake! "

He then do a move with his hands signaling me to go get a shower. If I think well enough, he's the same Ty but something is different. I felt relieved that I didn't do anything for which I may regret later. I hated how that girl was always around him. I nodded shyly going toward the bathroom as Ty glared at me.

His eyes were soft but had a sad touch in them. I smile and enter, closing the door behind me, I felt that I had forgot something important.

I stand under the shower and turn the knob. The moment the hot water hit my skin I felt more tired than ever. Only wanting to sleep forever and never open my eyes. I wanted to be somewhere where I could be alone. My stomach was hurting so badly my heart aching as well.
