After Their Story Began

Chapter 48

Xander's POV

"Boy! Wake up." I shaken awake

I open my eyes and am faced with an overweight police officer.

"What's going on?" I attempted but it comes out as a partially coherent slurring of words

"What's your name?"

"Xander Volkov." I answer

"Don't lie to me boy! That's your brother's name? Let me see your ID."

"It's in the glovebox." I say while closing my eyes

He snaps in my face and shakes me

"Stay awake. Your brother who was driving presented me with a license with the name Xander Niccoló Volkov on it. Can you tell me the address?"

I immediately recited our full address and even included my ID number

I memorized it when I was applying for colleges

The officer walked over to the curb where Xavier and the triplets were sitting down with their hands behind their backs

"Do you have a license young man?" The officer asked Xavier

"Of course he does. That's the only reason I drank tonight. He's the DD."

"Xander shut the fuck up!" Xav yelled at me

I was way too tired and drunk to deal with this shit. It was a miracle I was even sitting upright.

"I don't have a license or permit officer."

"So not only are all of you under the influence, you had an intoxicated thirteen year old in the trunk throwing up, while you drove without a license, then when pulled over you presented your twin's license since he's the only person in this car legally allowed to drive?" The officer questioned

I let out an uncontrollable laugh. That recap of events was enough to sober me up

"ARE YOU SHITTING MY DICK RIGHT NOW?! YOU FUCKING LIED ABOUT HAVING YOUR LICENSE, SNUCK MY THIRTEEN YEAR OLD BROTHER INTO THE CAR WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE, GOT HIM SHIT FACED, THEN IMPERSONATED ME WHEN YOU GOT PULLED OVER? ARE YOU STUPID YOU PIECE OF SHIT! I YOU DRANK, I COULD GET A DUI BECAUSE OF YOU. I HAVE A D1 SCHOLARSHIP THAT YOU COULD'VE RUINED. NOT TO MENTION THE FACT YOU COULD'VE KILLED ALL OF US. ESPECIALLY ALESSIO. WHAT IF WE GOT REAR-ENDED? HE WOULD'VE BEEN CRUSHED. HOW COULD YOU BE SO STUPID? I TOLD YOU I DIDNT CARE TO STAY SOBER TONIGHT BUT YOU REASSURED ME YOU WOULD STAY SOBER SO YOU COULD DRIVE US BACK. YOU BETTER HOPE THEY PUT US IN DIFFERENT CELLS BECAUSE IM GONNA KICK YOUR LYING FUCKING ASS!" I screamed at my twin

"Calm down."

"Where is my brother?"

"He was taken to the hospital to get his stomach pumped."

"Can you call my dad?"

"Your twins gave us his number already."

"Me and that boy are adopted. Their family is not ours. Call my dad please."

The officer was fortunately sympathetic to my pleas and uncuffed me before handing me his phone. I dialed dad's number and tried not to shit on the curb

"Hello?"

"Dad, it's me."

"Are you drunk?" He asked in a stern voice

"Mhm but that's not why I'm calling."

"Whose phone is this?"

"The officer's."

"The who-"

"Look Alessio got rushed to the hospital cause I guess he drank a lot."

"What hospital?"
