Charles/Erik, Alex/Any - AU anonymous June 20 2011, 03:13:27 UTC
So we all know Charles met Raven as a kid. But what if after Alex's parents die and he thinks his brother is dead (or is dead even if you want to go that route), he runs into Erik, who knows what it's like to loose parents like that and decides to take the poor boy under his wing. How would this change things? Would Erik hate the world less? Would he have stayed with Charles? Would he be the world's biggest cock block to Alex (my guess is yes!)?

Erik Lensherr loses his family to hate, bullets, gas, and fire. Alex Summers loses his family to a plane crash and the foster care system. When Alex thinks hard, very hard, he can remember the shape of Scott’s smile or the weight of his father’s hand on his hair, but these things are fading like photographs in a fire. Mostly, Alex remembers anger. It twists and snarls inside him like millions of snakes and he wants to scream, to yell, to bash his fists into something solid because it isn’t fairInstead, he starts blowing things up ( ... )

Things go like this for a few weeks. Erik leaves the hotel often and stays out for hours, only to return with that same frown. Alex alternates between sleeping, eating, and watching television. Sometimes, he leaves the room and wanders the hallways, watching the other guests come and go, couples and families and children. He likes to break into the pool after hours - he long ago learned the importance of picking locks - and sit on the deck and watch the water. The humidity almost makes it feel like summer and reminds Alex of half-formed memories of when he had lived in Hawaii with his parents ( ... )

Alex doesn’t know exactly when he starts saying it. This is my brother, Erik. He couldn’t put a date or time on the thing, but if he had to guess, it would be sometime after the incident in the hotel room. Maybe it was their mutual losses or the fact that they were the only freaks of nature that they had met in the world, but something sharpened between them.

This is my brother, Erik. Alex lays awake at night, turning the phrase over in his mind. It feels good. Nobody could ever replace his family. His parents, Scott, they’re irreplaceable, but Erik understands that. Alex isn’t a replacement for Erik’s family either. They’re something different. Something new ( ... )

Alex turns seventeen in Paris. He and Erik get an apartment and Alex has his own bedroom this time. Erik tells him to settle in, to make himself at home, because they might be there for a while. It’s weird, having a bed and a closet all to himself. He spends the first day opening and closing his bedroom door just because he can until he opens it again one time to find Erik standing on the other side, arms crossed over his chest and eyebrows raised ( ... )
