Rubik's Cube (Joshler)

Josh's POV ~

I've started sleeping a little better the past few days, which I'm extremely grateful for. I still don't know why I had trouble sleeping in the first place but it's in the past, I'm sleeping okay now so I'm not going to worry about it.

Currently me and Tyler are watching the sunset from the back step. My phone goes off and I pick it up off the little table that's next to me to check it.

Jordan: ...hey Josh?

Jordan? Why is Jordan texting me I haven't talked to him in almost 2 years.. Why now?

"Hey Joshie you okay?" Tyler asks looking at me with concern. I nod not really paying attention to what he's saying. Should I answer Jordan? What if he's in trouble? what if he's only texting me to tell me how much he hates me?
"Josh?" Tyler sat up. "Hmm?" I answer still distracted by my thoughts. "What's going on?" he asked. I didn't hear him though. "Josh???" he asked again. "What?" I looked up at him now. "I said what's going on?"

"Um Jordan texted me..." I said scratching the back of my neck. "Jordan as in your brother?" he asked slightly confused. "Yeah."

"Oh... Are you going to answer him?" he questioned. "I.. I don't know... It could be important because he never texts me but what if he just wants to yell at me?" I ask nervously. "You'll never know if you don't reply."

He's right. I nod and take a deep breath typing my response.

Me:.... Hi..
.....why are you messaging me?
I thought you hated me....
I mean I don't know why you hate me...
You didn't message me to yell at me did you?

Jordan: no I didn't message you to yell at you
I don't hate you.

I started feeling slightly angry.

Me: then why the hell did you ignore me for like 2 years!? You and Abby and Ashley you all ignored me! I didn't even do anything! It was that shit excuse for a father that did something not me!

Jordan:... I know... I'm sorry... Were all sorry

Me: yeah sure
I'm not replying anymore bye

Jordan: Josh please! Don't go

Me: Why not?

Jordan: because I'm scared and I don't know what to do!

Me: what are you talking about?

Jordan: dad.. He's been really abusive lately... Worse then he's ever been and he's not only hurting me but also Ash and Abby and I don't know what to do.

Me: he's what!?

Jordan:....
Do you think you could come get us?
Please?
Were all terrified
He's out getting drunk right now and I don't want to be here when he gets back
Please Josh

Me: pack your shit

I pocketed my phone and went into the house. Tyler quickly ran after me.
"What's going on Josh?" he asked. I ran downstairs and quickly pulled on some jeans and a sweater. "Where are you going?" he panicked. "Just get dressed if your coming be quick we don't have a lot of time."I said running upstairs to get the car keys.

"Josh where are you going with those keys?" my mom asked.  "Dads." I answered. "Why on earth are you going to your fathers?" she asked in a slightly angered tone. "Long story.. Explain later.. Got to go.. Love you bye." I gave her a kiss on the forehead and made sure I had everything. Keys, phone, wallet, charger. Check.

Tyler ran up the stairs now dressed.
I started to put on my shoes and Tyler followed. After they were on I ran out to the car with Tyler stumbling behind me to keep up. We got in the car and I quickly pulled out of the driveway and started the long drive to my dads.
