At about 6:00 CC started driving back to the house after picking up her kids who fell asleep in the car. I had to give her directions because she didnt know where to go, she is really bad with directions to be honest.
In the car everyone was scilent, Roxy sat on her phone, Pierce, Blaze, and Jay fell asleep. Its really weird not having Carter around.
"And take a left here" i said as we pulled up to the edge of the woods.
"Is this it?" She asked.
"Yep." I said.
"Guys, wake up. Were here." I said lightly patting Pierces chest.
"This isnt exactly how i imagined it" CC said.
"Trust me, none of this is going to how you imagined it." I said.
We began walking through the woods. We all looked terrable;  our eyes red and puffy, our faces pale and expressionless.
"Look. My family isnt exactly the perfect, innocent family.
Jay scoffed "very far from innocent."
"Yeah, Kris and Sam might be scared at first." I said.
She nodded holding the hands of her 2 children.
.
I oppend the door to the smell of.. Waffels? Oh Toby..
"Hey" i was greeted with a swarm of hugs. I guess toby told everyone.
"Hey guys" i smiled hugging everyine back.
I turned to see CC having no reaction to anything.
"Umm, everything ok?"i asked her
"Yes." She smiled.
"trust me, ive seen far worse."
"Well, ok.." i said.
"Toby! Did u make Waffels??" I asked jokingly
"Yes! They are soo much better than  pancakes." He smiled shoving food into his mouth.
I shook my head.
Once everyone got their food we sat down to eat.
As we sat down, slendy came out.
CC's eyes are locked on him.
"S-so what do you guys do for a living?" She asked.
"Uhh.. kill." LJ said.
I shot a glare at him.
"Well, shes already seen us so why shouldnt she know?"
"There are better ways to say that" i said to LJ.
He rolled his eyes.
I look over to see CC holding her children close.
"I- i uhh- have to go.." she said standing up.
"Look, im sorry. I- i should have told u." I started.
"No, its ok. I'll see you later"
I nodded "ok" i understood how scary everything could be, especially with young kids.
I kinda feel bad, i didnt give her any warning about it. I was suprised how well her kids reacted to everything.
I hope she understands, i didnt choose this life, but i wouldnt change it for anything, not even CC. My real mom.
