Brother

Jay's pov :

We were chit chatting at the dining table when we heard the door knocked and Aidan went to open the door, I noticed that Jacob was not being himself at all this day and I kept on wondering what's wrong with him the whole time is he shy around new people ? no i don't really think so because I was a new person for him too at some point and he did not behave that way so it's kinda weird.

As if it wasn't weird enough when Aidan opened the door and started talking to the person on the door which was Chase by the way, the boy literally ran out of the room to the bathroom without saying a word and I know for sure that it's not because of the food or his personal needs something is extremely wrong today and I need him to be honest with me about it.

Chase's pov :

My mom came home late from work like the usual and while preparing the dinner she realised that there's no salt and she needed some right away so the solution was to go and grab some from our neighbours Jay and Aidan, I didn't mind going because they're literally next door so I did exactly that and while talking to Aidan I saw someone going out so fast from the kitchen to the bathroom and it didn't seem like it was Jay at all because this boy is shorter.

" You're having a new roommate ?", I'm not usually that curious at all but it was eating me alive this time for no reason at all.

" Oh no it's just Jay's friend a boy named Jacob", Aidan said while asking me to come in while he goes to bring me the salt but I couldn't move when I heard his name can it be him ? all what I did as a response was to hum I felt like my mind froze and was all over the place just by hearing his name and I wasn't ready to face him if it was really him.

Just a couple of seconds went by and Jay came to me asking why am I standing like a statu at the door, and I didn't know what to say really I just smiled saying that I'll just take the salt so no need to come in, and before he could say anything else Aidan came with the salt so I took it and waved them goodbye to go back home as soon as possible .

Jay's pov :

"Why is he acting like that ? he was totally normal when he came", I usually would just shrug it off but this time Aidan is right from what I saw Chase is not that kind of person so why would he be acting that strange and it's not only him Jacob just came out of the bathroom when he heard the door slam shut.

" Jacob are you okay ?", he's clearly not but it's his choice to talk about it or not I know how stressful it is when someone is pushing you to talk and I won't do that to him.

" Yeah don't worry I'm fine anyways where were we ?", as expected he changed the topic and started talking about random shit to avoid discussing his weird behaviour.

Sissel's pov :

I was laying on my bed when Chase suddenly entered my room and started whisper shouting at me, "do you know any of Jay's friends", Jay's friends ? why does he need to know anout Jay's friends and does he have any friends other than Aidan ?

" I know just Aidan why is that question?", Chase sighted and looked at me right in the eyes saying that he thinks that Jacob is Jay's friend and that he's possibly 10 feet away from us as we spoke.

" It can't be true you're just tripping he can't comeback into this place at all and you know that", it's impossible that Jacob will ever go back any where near this place even though the things that Chase told me right now can point to him being at Jay's place but I can't see that happening my brother can't go back walking to the place that made him live in hell.
