Strapped to a Hospital Bed.

Dutch meeting Asher.

 I was hanging out with Greer when a familiar man walked in. 

"Hi, I'm here to check in." He said to the receptionist. 

The receptionist smiled, "Name?" 

The boy sighed, "Asher. Asher Wilkins."

 I looked over at Greer with my eyebrows raised, "Wilkins? As in, Chase's brother?" 

Greer sighed, "Dutchlynn, Chase's family is really... complicated."

 I narrowed my eyes, "Complicated how?"

 She clicked her tongue, "I'll be right back. I'm gonna figure out why Asher is checking into the mental hospital." Greer then walked off, approaching Chase's brother with a smile on her face. 

I scoffed and walked away, immediately going to Chase's room.

I banged on the door endlessly until he answered with a smirk on his face, "You know, our people just knock twice." 

I crossed my arms, "When were you going to tell me that you had a brother?" 

Chase widened his eyes, "How did you know about Micah?"

 I scoffed, "Micah? You have another brother?" 

Chase narrowed his eyes, "Ryker."

 I rolled my eyes, "No!"

 He sighed, "Camryn?" I shook my head and Chase leaned forward, "Asher?"

 I nodded, "Yeah. Why the hell-" 

Chase pulled me into his room, "I'm so sorry. I should've told you about Ashton sooner-" I cut Chase off by slapping him across the face. 

I sucked my teeth, "I don't mean to sound like an obnoxious girlfriend. Mainly because we haven't even established what's going on between... us. But I'd like to know the next time I see someone with the last name 'Wilkins' who isn't you check into the hospital."

 Chase sighed heavily, "Wait, Asher's here? A-at the hospital?"

 I nodded with my arms crossed, "Yeah, I was walking around with G and we watched him check in." 

Chase narrowed his eyes, "Dammit! Listen, I got to go." 

I scoffed, "What?!"

 He looked at me sincerely and cupped my face with his hands, "I promise you, I will explain everything tonight. And by the way, you're hot when you sound like an obnoxious girlfriend."

 I smiled and then sighed, "Go." 

He grinned, "Thank you. I owe you big time." I chuckled as Chase walked out of his own room and began running down the hallways.

 I met Anna at the cafeteria for dinner and slumped down, "Was anyone going to tell me that Chase had a brother here?" 

Anna narrowed her eyes, "Derrick's here?"

 I scoffed, "Derrick? No."

 Maddox raised an eyebrow, "Nate?"

 I widened my eyes, "Jesus, how many brothers does this guy have?"

 Maddox nodded, "You must be talking about Asher." 

I nodded back, "Yeah. And I've heard like ten different names."

 Anna sucked her teeth, "Chase's father... he got around a lot. Most of his kids are the same age."
