Song: Brother - Falling In Reverse
Don't play the song yet!
Description: Logan has never told anyone about or of his brother, Anthony. It just so happens to be the anniversary of when he died and Logan does something special with it.
Warnings: Kind of sad, death mention

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Logan walked through the forest. He was in the imagination to do something. That something was to sing for his beloved brother, Anthony.

Anthony was the reasoning side and taught everything he knew to Logan since Logan was the younger brother. Logan used to be happy and show emotion, but when his brother died, everything changed.

Logan stopped at a small pond. The place where his brother faded. It still looked the same. He sighed and went down on his knees. He put his hands together and prayed.

"I'm sorry I couldn't save you, Ant..." He muttered through his tears. "I wasn't even here when you died."

Patton had been following Logan for an hour but seemed to have gotten lost. He then peered through some bushes and saw Logan on his knees with his hands together. Patton had noticed that Logan looked down and so he wanted to know why. So here he was, watching Logan.

(Start the song)

He heard a low voice start to sing.

"Brother, why'd you have to go?
You left us all so soon.
Remember that song I wrote about your family, years ago?
Well, they're all waiting for you to come home.
What do I do?
What do I say?
And Pure tells me to pray,
So I prayed and prayed,
But the hurt won't go away.
The pain gets worse,
It never stops,
And I asked the Lord for us to swap.
I beg and plead, 'cause you have kids to feed."

Patton got closer and watched silently, a frown on his face.

"Why is it always stormy weather?
And brother, tell me if it all gets better.
Why did you leave?
Why did you die?
You finally made your brother cry.
I know you're watching over us tonight,
And I hope you're watching over us tonight."

Patton looked at him, sadly. Tears in his eyes.

"I'm sorry I missed your call.
I wasn't there for you at all.
And know, I've thought it through,
Maybe if I answered you
That you would still be here all along.
Now, no more calls.
Can't you see,
I took for granted family.
And once they're gone,
You'll never get that back.
No more laughs,
No more hugs,
So hold on to the ones you love.
Your soul is free,
I love you, Anthony." (Totally not a coincidence.)

Patton got closer and was a foot away from Logan.

"And why is it always stormy weather?
And brother, tell me when does it get better?
Why did you leave?
Why did you die?
You finally made your brother cry.
I know you're watching over from above,
So hold on to the ones you love."

Patton couldn't take it anymore, so he hugged Logan from behind. Logan stiffened, but relaxed when he saw who it was.

"Patton... what are you doing here?" Logan asked with tears falling down his face.

"I'm sorry. I just followed you because I was worried about you. You looked down today, so I wanted to know why. Now I know..." Patton explained.

"Patton..." Logan turned and hugged Patton back. "It's not a big deal or anything."

"Yes, it is!" Patton exclaimed. "Logan, I want to help you. Please let me try..."

"...I-if you insist," Logan said.

"Thank you. Now tell me more about your brother."
