In the middle of the night while he's deep asleep, Mackie's phone rings waking him up, grabbing it he looks at Harley's name on the screen confused. "Harley?" He answers in his sleeping voice

"Get up I need your help,"

"Harley, why are you calling me right now?" Especially since they haven't spoken in weeks

"Come on Mack don't act like I haven't woken you up around this time before, I'm sending you an address I'm stuck here I need you to pick me up." Mackie thinks about it and even though Harley has yet to apologize for being a jerk and he's ignored Mackie for weeks, Mackie knows he can't just leave him.

"All right send me the address."

"Cool thanks, bro."

"Yeah" Mackie gets up, turning his lamp on he quietly gets dressed then heads to the bathroom to splash some water on his face before leaving. Driving about 40 minutes away, Mackie pulls up to the dark house Harley described in his text. Waiting for a few minutes, he calls Harley but he doesn't answer. "What the fuck" he sighs getting out of the car, walking up to the house Mackie looks around but can't see a thing, going to knock on the door he doesn't get a chance because it swings open. "Harley, what the fuck man?"

"Yo get in here I wanna show you something," Harley walks away.

"What is this place?" Mackie follows "Harley!" Walking behind his brother down a hall Mackie is confused by what's going on,

Stopping at a door Harley turns to him "come here" Harley calls Mackie over, going up to him Mackie watches Harley open the door and turn the light on. There's a girl sleeping in the bed, Mackie turns to Harley, "check it so I had a delivery for some guys right and they tell me to bring it here, I walk in and they're drinking with this chick. Then they take her to her room and shit just went down" he laughs.

"Fuck are you talking about?"

"When they were done they're like your turn, and just left so figured I'd call you."

"Harley, what the fuck is she ok?" Mackie rushes in the room to look at the lifeless girl on the bed half naked.

"If this is what it takes to get you back bro, then it's what I'm fucking doing." Grabbing the door Harley shuts it

He runs towards it and pulls but fails, "Harley open the fucking door!" Mackie bangs on it "What the fuck is wrong with you?!" He shouts

"Fuck her Mack! Fuck her until you're straight again!" He yells on the other side of the door

"HARLEY WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR!"

"NOT UNTIL YOU STOP BEING A FAG!"

Getting angry Mackie picks up a chair from the room throwing it at the door breaking it, "OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR HARLEY!" He starts to ram it "NOW!" Taking the restraints off the knob Harley opens it and Mackie attacks him, punching his brother Mackie doesn't hold back. "And you call me the sick one?" He asks as Harley's on the floor coughing up blood, "never fucking talk to me again."

About to leave he remembers the girl on the bed, walking past Harley he stands next to her "hey?" He shakes her but she doesn't move, feeling guilty about leaving her there Mackie picks her up carrying her to his car.

3:30 in the morning his phone rings while he sleeps, Ben turns reaching as it vibrates under his pillow. Not bothering to open his eyes he places the phone on his face, "hello" he answers asleep.

"I'm outside," he hears Mackie

"What?" Ben sits up "why?"

"Come out for a second I need to talk,"

"Okay be right down..." hanging up Ben puts on his sneakers, tiptoeing down to the door Ben sneaks outside to find Mackie standing near his car on the sidewalk. "What's up?" He comes closer seeing blood on Mackie's jacket, "what happened?"

"Harley tried to force me to rape someone."

"What?" Ben asks confused

"He called me to pick him up somewhere but it was a setup, he locked me in a room with her" Mackie points to the girl passed out in his back seat.

Ben gasps "who is she?"

"I don't know" he shrugs, "but I think she's hurt though."

"You should take her to the hospital"

Nodding "ok, sorry I woke you up."

"It's ok" turning around Ben pulls Mackie close hugging him, "this is so messed up, I'm sorry these last few weeks have been so hard. You don't deserve it"

Taking a breath Mackie feels a little better getting a hug from Ben, "thank you, I'll call you in the morning."

They let go and Mackie walks to the driver side "be safe" Ben says as he gets in.

Driving the girl to the hospital Mackie stays with her until morning, leaving when he thinks it's ok Mackie takes the drive home to think. He is pissed and nothing will make what happened last night right, he didn't expect his own brother would do something like that to him. Mackie always knew Harley was twisted but this was new, he wanted nothing to do with him anymore, so walking into his house to find his brother sitting at the table eating sets him off.

"Where have you been?" His mom asks turning to him not expecting him to be charging for Harley. Yanking him out of the chair Mackie balls his fist and begins punching Harley, "HEY!" Their mom jumps rushing in to stop it, she yanks Mackie off as he tries to continue hitting Harley who isn't even fighting back.

"See what I mean?" Harley backs up with a grin cleaning his bloody lip, "I call him to talk last night and he attacks me."

"What?!" Mackie barks "you fucking liar! He's lying" Mackie tries to reach for him again but his mom stands between them.

"Tell me what happened," she demands.

"He called me in the middle of the night to pick him up at this weird house and when I finally found him, he locked me in a room with this passed out girl and told me to have sex with her!"

"What?" His mom looks at Harley

"He's lying ma why would I do something like that?"

"Harley stop lying! Mom, I spent the night at the hospital to make sure that girl was ok, he's sick!"

"What's going on?" Their dad walks in

"Mackenzie is saying that Harley locked him in a room with an unconscious girl to sleep with,"

"Why would he do that?"

"I didn't dad" Harley continues to lie, "he's lying because that's all Mackie does, I bet he didn't even tell you guys that he has a boyfriend," Mackie's dad looks at him. "Yep picks him up for school every day, probably having sex with the little fag too-"

"Shut the fuck up!" Mackie charges but is pulled back by his dad

"If you're lying Mackie-" his dad starts

"I'm not! Why would I fucking lie?" Turning to his mom "mom you believe me, right? I wouldn't lie about this you know me!"

"I'm just trying to understand why Harley would do something like that?"

Feeling like no ones on his side Mackie yanks himself away from his dad who was still holding him back, frustrated he stares at his family as they're turning their backs on him. "Oh god he's gonna cry" Harley chuckles

"I'm done" he sighs, "I'm moving out" Mackie decides walking out of the kitchen.

"No you're not" his mom follows, going to his room Mackie gets a duffle bag shoving clothes from his closet into it. "Stop! What are you doing?" His mom yanks the clothes from him

"I don't care if you guys don't believe me but I'm not staying in this house anymore not with him." He continues to walk around grabbing things

"Ken, please let's talk first you can't just decide to leave your family!"

"What family?! Harley's a fucking psycho, and dad doesn't even talk to me anymore let alone look at me. He won't even let the boys near me, I feel like a fucking stranger here" he zips the bag.

"What about me?" His mom asks as tears fill her eyes, "you can't do this."

"I'm sorry, mom" he hugs her, "I'll still be at work but for now I'm getting away from here." He shoves his computer and books in his backpack, picking up both bags "can you take the bike to the shop for me?" He hands her the key and she takes it.

Walking out of the room his dad and brother stand there watching, "I'm leaving unless you have anything you want to say," he stops in front of his dad.

But he says nothing "say something!" His mom cries but his dad stays quiet so he walks to the door leaving without looking back.
