Harry and Marcel ran found themselves running after Edward in the private airport as the CEO, with his GUCCI suitcase in hand walked emotionlessly towards the jet waiting for him.

"Don't do this Edward!" Marcel mumbled, grasping his brother's shoulder and turning him around.

Edward wobbled in place, turning to look at both Harry and Marcel, their sadness didn't resonate with him. "This is my job Marcel, whether you like it or not, i'm going to China."

Harry, grasped his brother's hand pulling him a step closer to them "don't, fuck the money - we don't need it. We just need each other and Louis. Louis our tiny Omega at home sobbing into your pillow thinking you're abandoning him."

Edward's face briefly morphed from stone cold, to sorrow. However, within a split second, he was turning his back to his brothers. He faced the private jet but didn't move. Just stared at his 10 million dollar plane.

"I love Louis Eddie, don't ruin this, please." Harry mumbled, almost as if he had given up hope.

Edward felt tears fill his eyes as Marcel too began to plead, "I love you Ed, and I just wish you would see how much you mean to us, all of us... because without you, it's just, empty."

Edward bit his lip, dropping his suitcase to the floor and turning back to face his brothers. He finally let his tears fall, his father's words pushed to the back of his mind as in that moment he let the emotions he bottled up free to the world.

Free to his brothers.

"I'm sorry." Edward shook his head, pulling in Harry and Marcel for a loving hug, "I don't know how to... feel and I hurt everyone. I don't want to hurt you anymore, especially not Louis."

Harry smiled, a true smile gracing his face as happiness exploded from within him.

"I love you, Edward, don't you ever doubt that."

Marcel too smiled, finally feeling like change was imminent. 

"You need to tell Louis that too... He's really hurt."

Edward looked down at his feet unsurely, "I wouldn't know where to begin?"

Harry hummed, picking up Edward's suitcase, and guiding his older, yet more fragile brother at that moment to the exit.

"Propose a new beginning. Say sorry. Be honest."

Edward bit his lip, "okay... I'll try."

---

The triplets did end up making their way home. Leaving Edward to unpack his things and gather his thoughts. Louis remained upstairs, sadness still filling his heart as he recalled his fight with the CEO.

Marcel sat drinking his tea in the lounge room with Harry.

"You think we will actually see a change?" Marcel muttered. Voice as quiet as a mouse.

"I think so" Harry nodded in confirmation, snuggling into Marcel. The latter of the two's eyes filled with tears and he began to sniffle with happiness.

Harry smiled, "don't cry, Marcy."

"It's been well over 10 years since I've even seen Edward show emotion, and it hurts knowing i'm the reason for that."

Harry shook his head, taking his brothers hand, "don't say that."

Marcel frowned, "no Harry it's true. I was the one who always teased hi-"

Harry interrupted, "and I am just as guilty. Do not blame yourself, growing up with our father's influence we were not nice people, we really didn't have a good bond. But I know now we have changed. And now hopefully, Edward will too."

Marcel smiled sadly, "we were idiots for teasing him."

A soft, familiar voice broke the silence which followed suit, "idiots for teasing who?"

There, in the doorway, was a red-nosed Louis looking drained. He wore Edward's track pants and hoodie, both way too big for him.

"Hi Marcy, Hi Haz." Louis went to sit on his two lover's laps, welcoming them with a kiss. They hugged him close, never wanting to let go.

It was then that Edward walked into the room. His heart hurt seeing a love so pure between the tree of them. He couldn't help but want to join, however, a worry beyond imagine filled his mind.

A list of what ifs...

"Ed, come be with us," Marcel mumbled.

The Alpha merely shook his head, retreating to his study where he found comfort.

He left the three on the couch with only one sentence, "I'll just ruin the moment somehow... i'm sorry."
