My Brothers Chapter 1

Drip

In the dark basement there was only the sound of the leaking pipe.

There was a cuddled up small figure shivering in the corner.

Everything hurts in his tiny body and he is trying his best not to cry, he is worried that if his parents heard him they will hit him again.

Earlier today he had an accident, his parents got really angry because of the mess he made and it happened right before their friends were supposed to come.

He was punished for making a mess and for stuttering again.

It’s been few hours since he was thrown into the basement, it’s getting dark and he is getting sleepy.

He tried to stay awake as to not anger them any further but it was getting harder and harder and soon after he couldn’t stay awake and drift off.

On the other side

A man terribly irritated was working in his office.

Hunter Parker [1st Brother] (25)

💭… I wanna go home and take a nice warm bath and rest for the day.

Hunter Parker [1st Brother] (25)

*looks at the clock then at the door*

Hunter Parker [1st Brother] (25)

(sigh) 💭… Is he not done yet too.

Hunter Parker [1st Brother] (25)

💭… he should be by now.

Few minutes later just as Hunter was on the last document his door opened and a charming man with a huge smile on his face entered.

Hunter Parker [1st Brother] (25)

*looks up*

He looked so ready to go home that his face said it all as he looked at Hunter who was still working.

Nicholas Parker [2nd Brother] (24)

*sits on the couch*

Nick always finishes his work before Hunter.

After finishing his work Nick always barge into Hunter’s office to annoy him then leaves.

Today was sort of an off day for Hunter so he decided to carpool with his brother. On normal days they finish at different times and leave separately but for some reason, he wanted to go together today.

Nick was about to mock Hunter when Hunter’s phone rang. Hunter looked at his phone almost ignoring it but then he answered it anyway.

Nicholas Parker [2nd Brother] (24)

*rolls his eyes*

Nicholas Parker [2nd Brother] (24)

💭… why not just take another call at the end of the work right?

Nick was about to give Hunter "the look" that says deal with it later but as he looked at Hunter he saw Hunter’s expression change, his eyes widened and he looked so pale like he just saw a ghost.

Nicholas Parker [2nd Brother] (24)

💭… What have the boys done now, whatever it is it must be pretty bad to get this reaction.

As Nick was about to ask what happened. Hunter whispered so quietly that if Nick wasn’t paying attention he would have missed it.

Hunter Parker [1st Brother] (25)

Noah…

Nicholas Parker [2nd Brother] (24)

*eyes widened*

Nick got up and reached over the phone and put it on speaker.

A lady’s voice came asking how long will it take for them to get to the hospital.

Nicholas Parker [2nd Brother] (24)

*looks at Hunter*

Hunter Parker [1st Brother] (25)

*frozen*

Nicholas Parker [2nd Brother] (24)

(panicked)… Can you repeat yourself.

Courtney Lin {Social worker}

Sir, your little brother Noah has been found.

Hearing Nick’s panicked voice snapped Hunter out of his shock, after processing the news in their system they got all the details from the social worker. They gather their things and head out of the office.

Hunter sent a text to rest of their brothers telling them to get home ASAP.

Nick hurriedly started the car, and the ride home was in silence. Hunter and Nick still couldn’t believe it, they were trying to compose themselves before they met their brothers because they’d have to be strong in front of them.

The social worker said that they would be given more information when they reached the hospital. All they know now is that Noah is hurt, and that is enough to make their blood boil.

At the Parker residence

Everyone is confused. Hunter is a serious man and there has to be something big for him to gather everyone like that. The last time it happened they lost their parents. They can just hope that it isn’t something bad this time.

As the sound of the car SCREECH! all of them looked up at the door, as Hunter and Nick entered, they were bombarded with questions, as they had expected.

Spencer Parker [7th] (16) {Reid twin}

FINALLY!!

Reid Parker [6th] (16) {Spence twin}

(pout)… You guys literally took forever to get home.

Sebastian Parker [5th] (17) {Alex twin}

(worried)… What’s so important that you called us like that?

Alexander Parker [4th] (17) {Seb twin}

(ತ_ತ)… What’s wrong?

Atlas Parker [3rd Brother] (23)

(worried)… Is everything okay?

Nicholas Parker [2nd Brother] (24)

Calm down you guys we have something important to talk about.

Everyone looks at him, Nick starts to sweat.

Nicholas Parker [2nd Brother] (24)

Okay, I am just gonna rip off the bandage…

Nicholas Parker [2nd Brother] (24)

Noah’s been found.

Nick said quicking waiting for their response, Hunter impatiently tapped his foot on the ground, he knew that it would take time for them to process this just like Nick and he did, but they’d have to leave quickly and they couldn’t afford to waste more time here.

Silence

Not one of them moved an inch, everyone seemingly froze on the spot after hearing the news.

Atlas Parker [3rd Brother] (23)

(teary eyes)… You really found him?

Hunter Parker [1st Brother] (25)

Yes, and Atlas you and I will be going to get him… (rubs his back)

Hunter Parker [1st Brother] (25)

While Nick will stay here with the rest of you.

Alexander Parker [4th] (17) {Seb twin}

(angrily)… No!

Spencer Parker [7th] (16) {Reid twin}

Fucking hell, No!

Reid Parker [6th] (16) {Spence twin}

(teary eyes)… Hunter I will come too!

Sebastian Parker [5th] (17) {Alex twin}

ಠ_ಠ… Absolutely Not!

All of them shouted together.

Hunter Parker [1st Brother] (25)

(sigh)… *expected this*

Hunter Parker [1st Brother] (25)

Atlas works with children and he also looks the least intimidating, so he will be coming, and obviously I am going to be his guardian so I have to go.

Hunter Parker [1st Brother] (25)

I don’t want to overwhelm him with all seven of us, so the rest of you are going to stay here and I will keep you all updated on what’s happening, but right now Atlas and I are heading to the airport got it?

Hunter nods his head at Nick, he understood not to say anything to them about the hospital until Atlas and Hunter got there and got more information.

As everybody calmed down Nicholas took them to the kitchen to cook something for them, he also needed to distract himself.

As Hunter and Atlas start walking out of the house, Hunter couldn’t help but hope that his little brother was going to be okay, he hoped that he wasn’t hurt badly.
