Keira

Chapter 21 Just Like Dad

I hanged out in my room for a moment trying to calm down before grabbing my bag and slipping my shoes on. I hurried down the steps "Kiera," I hear Mom call as I walk by the kitchen and dining room opening. I stop in my tracks turning around to see Mom, Mr. Andrew, and Preston all sitting at the table while my brothers have their shoes and bags on ready to go. "Will you please explain to your brothers that they need to eat," Mom asked of me, I looked to the boys "nah will just pick up donuts," I said the boys smiled and ran out the house. "Enjoy your breakfast devil," I said referring to what Matty called Preston a few moment ago, I then walked out the house unlocking my car. The boys climbed in as I see Tony, Jazzy, and Clara waiting to see what the hell is going on in my family.
"Your mom is dating Preston's dad," Jazzy asked in complete shock "like I seriously can't believe this doesn't she realize what an ass Preston has been to not just you but all of us including his well his ex best friends," Jazzy began to ramble but Tony places a hand on her shoulder. "Breath Jaz," Tony reminded her, she then took a deep breath "I still can't understand how you can talk that much in one breath," Clara said with an amazed look on her face. "We are going to get donuts," I tell my friends "will follow you," Tony told me, I nodded my head before getting into my car with my brothers. Clara and Jazzy got into Tony's car we all pulled out and headed to get donuts before school started.
While my brothers are I told Tony, Jazzy, and Clara everything that happened between my mom and me which they seemed shocked about how far my mom and me both took it. "I can't believe she threatened that," Tony said shocked "I couldn't either," I said with a bored expression on my face but truthfully I was sad. I loved my mom and we rarely ever fought and when we did we both always felt bad and apologized literally at the same time always. But this time I doubt it will as simple as that anymore. "But you also shouldn't have mentioned the stereotype either," Clara said calling me out "yeah I know I was just angry," I said with a sigh "don't feel too bad Kiera," Jazzy told me placing a hand on mine. I smiled softly at her "hard not to," I said with all honesty.
"Don't worry Kiera," I suddenly hear Matty said I turn around to see him and my brothers all standing behind me "it is weird but if Mom likes the devil's dad. We will just have to put with it," Charlie said "or we could get rid of them," Ryan said Quinton elbowed Ryan in the gut "ow," Ryan said "why is my twin an idiot," Quinton asked with a sigh. "Hey I'm not an idiot," Ryan yelled "could have fooled me," Alexander said "hey," Ryan yelled. I laughed everyone looking to me in shock, cause I don't laugh often. I then got on my knees and pulled my five idiot lovable brothers into a group hug. They quickly hugged me back.
Even though none of my brothers knew our dad like I did, I think they are more like him than I ever will be. In looks and personality. With their sarcastic, rude, playful, yet caring nature and in their physical features I saw Dad. That's probably why they matter the most to me is they are what I have left of my dad. Sure I have my memories of us together, but in truth they were the pure essence of Dad. Ryan has Dad's bad mouth, Quinton has Dad's smarts, Charlie has Dad's sarcasm, Alexander is just as athletic as Dad was, and Matty, Matty has Dad's kind heart.
I stood up scrambling Charlie's hair as I looked down at them "just like Dad," I said with a smile on my face. "You boys are just like Dad," I said the boys all smiled with pride before hugging me again I hugged them back. I hope you are proud Dad because you got some badass kids that are everything you were.
