Gasping as he pulled into an embrace the boy sniffled and held onto his brother equally as firmly.  "Aiden. . ." Closing his eyes the boy felt himself relax a bit as he felt his brother, this man hold him and protecting him.  Feeling something wet against his neck brought the boy back from his own thoughts and he looked up to see a picture of him and Aiden.  It was a week after Daniel had been born and was simple picture of Aiden on the couch holding his baby brother.<br/><br/><i>He's still my big brother.  He still loves me.  I still love him.  I love Aiden. . .<br/>
</i><br/>Shaking his head the boy rubbed his brother's back and kissed his cheek.  Daniel just kneeled there with Aiden, holding onto his brother as he felt himself simply falling apart.  His world falling apart.<br/><br/>Pulling back slightly the boy wiped his brother's eyes and swallowed hard "I love you Aiden, you never have to be afraid of be lost.  I'll always be with you no matter what.  You're the most important in the world to me, nothing will ever change that." Daniel looked his brother in the eye, his eyes puffy and red but also filled with love for Aiden.
