The Stolen Brothers

Chapter 3: Shopping and Shocking News

Noah Pov

I quickly hid in the small closet in the basement. My dad was looking for me. I don't even know why he was mad at me.

"Noah, where are you God damnit?" He asked, I then heard banging noises and glass breaking. I closed my eyes as tears came down my face.

"Dad, he didn't do it was me." I heard Eli say, then I heard a thump. "Mind your own damn business." Dad said, then I heard loud footsteps coming down the stairs.

I silently began to pray for my dad to go upstairs and forget about hurting me but it was too late the door burst opened. I looked up with tears streaming down my face.

"Now you'll think twice before stealing my food." He said, then that's when I saw the belt.

"No please." I shouted, as I covered my face with my hands.

I gasped as I opened my eyes to find myself not in the closet but in a huge bedroom. I was in the middle of the bed lying between Eli and Milo.

I slowly crawled out of bed and then walked over to the door. I checked to see if I accidentally woke them up but thankfully they were sound asleep. I then continued to find my way over to the bathroom. I opened the first door I saw and slowly opened it to find it was an empty bedroom that probably belonged to me or Milo.

I closed it and was about to walk over to the next door when I saw Henry standing in front of me with his arms crossed. I gulped and looked at his tall frame.

"What are you do- I ignored him and ran over to Eli's bedroom. I quickly opened the door and went on to the bed startling Eli and Milo.

"Are you okay Noah?" Eli asked me, I slowly nodded as I looked at the dark hallway. I then saw Jayden walk past the room I gulped and then looked at Eli who had fallen back asleep along with Milo.

I sighed and stared at the dark hallway waiting for Henry to come into the room and hurt me for snooping around.

Sometime later I heard footsteps coming close. I quickly closed my eyes pretending I was asleep. "Boys, it's time to get up. Grace made breakfast." Cameron told us, I opened my eyes and looked at Eli who stretched his arms out.

He then got up and looked down at me and Milo who were looking at him weirdly. I don't see how he can trust people this easily. Maybe it's the cops who made him trust people.

I hesitantly followed after Eli and Milo as they began to walk away with Cameron. We walked down the white staircase and into a dining room where the rest of Cameron's family members were.

We sat down in the three empty seats that were thankfully next to each other. I sat in the middle between Milo and Eli.

There was a plate in front of us that had some bacon, eggs, and biscuits. And a glass cup filled with milk. I watched as the others ate, then looked at Eki who picked up a piece of bacon and had his mouth opened but he made no movement to eat it.

Instead he looked at Cameron who made no comment about it then Eli hesitantly ate it and I looked at Cameron to see if he was gonna yell at Eli for eating. But he never yelled at him instead he ignored it and ate his own food.

I looked at Milo who shrugged and picked up a piece of bacon and took a bite of some of the eggs. I hesitantly picked up a piece of bacon and began to slowly eat the greasy bacon.

I was gonna grab my now third piece of bacon when my arm accidentally bumped into the glass of milk causing it to drop to the floor it shattered as it hit the wooden floor and the milk spilled out everywhere.
