How did I end up here?

I just heard the front door open and I knew William was home. I was going to greet him until Michael shoved Sammy in my arms and told me to run upstairs to go in his room. So here I was in Michael's room, sitting on the bed with Sammy in my arms. I was listening to Michael and William yell at each other down stairs, I had to plug Sammy's ears because I he would be thinking of the same thing I was.. This reminds me of mom and step-dad..

After a bit Michael came into the room. "Look.. Um.. Father isn't always in the best mood when he comes home from work so you can just.. See him later, ok?" I nod my head and unplug Sammy's ears. "Also you left your phone downstairs, this person keeps calling.. Jonas? Do you know him?" I want to say no, not wanting to relive the worst mistake of my life but I just nod. "Are you guys like dating or something?" Michael asks me and he sits next to me on the bed. "No.. well.. we were but it wasn't for a good reason. It was a mistake and it was my fault. I feel like a horrible person because I didn't date him because I liked him.. I didn't even like him like that.." I mumble out, why am I even telling him this?

"Why were you dating him them..?"

"He looked like you.."

"I.."

"MICHAEL"

William. He just barged through the door and was about to yell until he saw me. "Y/N? Is that you?" "Yes.." I didn't want to show on my face that I was a bit scared. I knew that Michael and William never really got along but I never heard him yell like that. "We'll it's good to see you again.. and Sammy?" "It's good to see you too.. Sammy say hi.." I look down at Sammy on the floor who was playing with one of Michael old toys. He looked up at William and frowned. "Did you kill my sissy?"
..
"Sammy, that isn't very nice accusing him! How did you even learn about her.. um.. Sorry William, my mom must of told him something." I apologize and Sammy just stares up at him. "It's quite alright, I'll be downstairs. Call me if you need anything." I nod and he walks out.

I sigh and look over at Michael who is just staring off into the distance. "Mikey.. I should be getting home soon.." He flinched again after I said that name. "Are you sure you're fine with that nickname?" I ask and he nods. "I just need to get used to it again, when you left the only person who called me that was.. C.C.." He says looking down. "Which reminds me, where is he? I haven't seen him or Eli this whole time." Michael is quiet for a second then he finally says something. "They um.. went to live with our mother??" He didn't look so sure of his answer either but I just nod.

Their mother, I don't remember her much.. I know she was a very beautiful lady though, she wasn't afraid to off that she had money. She always wore some kind of expensive jewelry and makeup. You would look at her maybe and think, 'wow she must be snobby' but she wasn't. I used to look up to her a lot as a kid becuase she was the closest thing to a mother that I had..

"Do you want me to walk you home? You sure have a lot of bags.." Michael breaks the silence and I shrug, "Sure why not."

I look up to the two-story house. It looked the same.. I smiled and looked down at Sammy who looked so much more excited. He hasn't been inside longer than I have so I understand. I looked over at Michael who definitely seemed happier, he's always loved my dad so maybe he visits? "Here, you get behind me. It will make it more of a surprise!" Michael said and I nodded, picking up Sammy. "Alright sounds good!" I say and I get out of sight as Michael knocks on the door.

"Hm..? Oh it's just you Michael. How are you holding up? Is William giving you any problems? Do you need to stay here again?!" "Woah woah.. Calm down Henry, I just have a surprise for you. What was dad talking about? I'll let it go for now but i'll ask about it later. "A surpr-?" "Papa!!" Sammy says jumping out of my arms and runs up to our dad. I sigh, "Sammy you ruined the surprise!"

A bit after a nice reunion and Michael staying over for dinner, Michael left to go to his own house.         Y/N..? Why did you come back..?" Dad said as I came out of Sammy's old room, after I put him to bed. "I couldn't live there anymore.. It was horrible.. I couldn't just leave Sammy with them too!.." I felt frustrated, I don't think they will even look for us. Even if they did, I would just chose to live with Dad. "It's alright Y/N, I'm glad you came back. Plus I think Michael will be more happier now, he's been so down since the accident.." Dad said and I set to the couch next to him. "Dad.. What accident..?" I asked and he looked at the ground. "Michael didn't tell you about C.C and Elizabeth..?" "Of course he did, they went to live with their mother.. What there a reason??"

"That's not true.."
