Harlow

Chapter 10



Hendrix's POV

The fuck? My Aunty just said Harlow is doing the same as I was at 16 years old. All I know is she better fucken not be. I was a typical 16 year old boy, sleeping with anything with legs. If I find out that Harlow is sleeping around like I use to, I'll flip out. My sister should keep her innocence thank you very fucken much. If that's sexist so be it. My aunt is right though, one of use could of come to tell her about mum but none of us did. We also could of come the first two years on weekends she stuff to check on her, but we had our own lives as well. We let Harlow down but I wouldn't be leaving her here any longer. It's time she came home to be with her family.

"I'm going to head over to that Toby's place and see if she is there. She is coming home with us no matter what" I told them all. "You force her to go and she will hate you even more than she already does" Anita said. "She hates us?" Leo asked. Leo always was the quiet sensitive one. "She wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire" Anita said.

"She doesn't really hate us, she is angry and that will change when she is with us" Kody replied. "Ha you really have no idea who Harlow is anymore. She sure as hell ain't your sweet forgiving little girl you dropped here. Prepare for a fight. You take her from that boy and you will start world war three and you won't win" Anita said before walking out of the kitchen.

"We need to get her home and talk to her calmly. She belongs with us and it's time to bring her home" my dad said. Let's hope this doesn't backfire. We all head out, if Harlow is with that Toby kid then that's where we are heading. We pull up outside the kids house and head to the front door.

Dad knocks on the door and some lady answers "can I help you all?" She asks. "We are looking for Harlow" dad replies. "And you are?" She says. "Oh my bad, I'm her father Jeff" dad replies. She raises her eyebrow and crosses her arms over her chest blocking the doorway. Who the hell does this lady think she is? "Well, I have known that girl for 6 years and never seen you around. Last I heard you left that girl with her aunt. What gives you the right to turn up on my door now?" She says.

Wow this woman has some balls. She is in front of 7 big guys who could literally snap her in half and she sasses out my dad. I'll give Harlow props, she has got some decent people in her corner, but it is now time for her to be with us. "Look lady, we are here for my sister so either move so we can come in or I'll move you" Jax barks out. The woman grabs something off the bench next to her and holds it to Jax's face, "listen here, that girl is like a daughter to me and I'm not scared to smack you if you ever speak to me like that again" she says. Jett starts laughing and I finally see the woman is holding a rolled up magazine holding it towards Jax's face.

"Maybe we should all calm down" I say and step forward. The woman pushes the magazine towards my face but won't move out of the door. "I'm Hendrix, I am Harlow's eldest brother and we just want to talk to her. Do you mind if we come in?" I ask putting on my charm. A car pulls into the driveway and a man steps out of the car and rushes over to the woman in front of us. "Can I help you all?" He asks. "I'm Harlow's father and these are my sons, we are just here to speak with Harlow" dad replies. "That one there threatened me" the woman says while pointing the magazine at Jax who is glaring at her. "Don't you dare take that tone with me young man" the woman says before smacking Jax in the head with the magazine. I can't help it , I start to laugh especially at the face Jax pulls and my brothers do that same. The man grabs the magazine from his wife and throwing it back in the house "Sue go inside, I'll handle this" the man says. Sue nods her head and steps inside.

"Sorry about my wife" the man says, "she is very protective of Harlow and won't allow anyone to hurt her. I'm Steve, Toby's dad" he tells us. "I'm Harlow's dad Jeff and these are Harlow's brothers. We have come to take Harlow home" dad replies. "Right, her aunt knows she is here and said it was fine if we have a small birthday dinner for her tonight. Is there a reason she needs to go tonight?" Steve asks. "We aren't taking her to her aunts place, she is coming home with us" Kody states. "I think you better come in" Steve says before leading us to what looks like a sitting room. We all take a seat and Steve clears his throat. "Where exactly are you taking Harlow?" He asks. "Back with us to our home about 2 hours from here" dad replies. Steve nods his head before saying "you realise separating those kids will push Harlow to the limit and also Toby? Those kids need each other more than you realise. Toby picked Harlow up when she couldn't do it herself when she first got here. We lived next door to Anita and he was there everyday for that girl. We moved away after my eldest son was killed but both kids would run away to each other. They were both 14 so we moved back. Harlow saved Toby from going down the same path as his brother. I don't think any of them will survive if you take her away" Steve says. "I understand, but we need to take her home. She is out drinking and getting tattoos and she is barely 16" dad replies. "That girl has been talking about that tattoo since she was 12 she was getting it one way or another. Look I'm not going to judge but that tattoo means something to her. She finally feels she can be free from caring whether you love her or not. We know what has happened, we helped raise that girl while Anita was at work. She is a good kid but she isn't the same kid you left here. Forcing her back with you isn't that answer. She will resent you more than she does. She doesn't trust any of you and you will be taking her away from her safety. That won't go down well" Steve tells us. "Look we appreciate everything you have done and said but Harlow needs family and stability which we can give her" Dad replies. "She needed you 6 years ago. What she needs now is to feel safe. She has family in us. Your sister never had time for her and neither did any of you. You are 6 years to late" Sue says walking into the room.

"We just want to have a conversation with Harlow. We want her to come home where she belongs. We made mistakes I will admit that but she is still our blood. If you want we can help you move closer so the kids still have each other and help get you another job. We will be taking Harlow with us" I tell these people, they are getting on my nerves. "I'll go wake the kids and get them to come down" Sue says. "I'll come with you" I say standing up and following Sue. I don't trust Harlow not to run with the help of this woman. We get to a black door and Sue softly opens the door. What I see makes my blood boil. There on the bed is my baby sister snuggled into Toby who is shirtless on the bed. Sue snaps a picture next to me while I yell "what the fuck?". Next minute you hear a heard of elephants coming up the stairs and my brothers are soon behind me looking at my sister in bed with a shirtless Toby.
