Me and my Benj

Chapter 8

I've been dreading this. They didn't tell me what happened to my mom over the phone so I know it was something bad. I told Mitch and Jerome what happened and they said they'd take me.

We ended up taking Mitch's car. He was driving, I was in the passengers seat and Jerome was in the back.

At the police station I went up to the front desk to talk to them. "I'm Michaela Brisbane." I say. In case you didn't know. My last name is Brisbane.

"Yes. Follow me." The guy at the front desk says standing up and walking down a hallway. I beckon Jerome and Mitch to follow. He took me to this room that had a lady behind the desk. She was the chief of police.

"Miss. Brisbane," she says, "take a seat." I do so. "I'm sorry to tell you this but, your mothers dead." I stand up tears streaming down my face already.

"She was murdered." The chief says. I fall down but Mitch catches me. He holds me in his arms as I sob into his chest.

"By who," I ask the chief, "who killed my mother?" I can barely talk because I'm so choked up. I sob in between every other word. I couldn't stop.

"Your father," she says, "he admitted it to us." I cry even more.

"Thanks for letting us know." Mitch says picking me up and carrying me bridal style out to the car. I sob into his shoulder. At the house Mitch picks me up and carries me into my bedroom.
Jerome follows.

Mitch sets me down on my bed and they both enclose me in a hug.

"I have no family anymore," I say, "my dads not my dad anymore and my moms... gone." I sobs more forcefully when I say gone.

"You have us." Jerome says

"Yeah," Mitch says, "and we're never going to leave you."

"I love you guys." I say.

"We love you too." They say together. I kiss Jerome on the cheek and Mitch on the lips. I smile. For the first time in an hour.

Jerome got tired so he went up to bed. Mitch stayed with me. He stayed the whole night. We cuddled again. My mom may be gone but at least I got Mitch.

"I love you Mitch." I say before I close my eyes.

"I love you too." He says. I smile. I soon drift off to sleep.

A/N oh what happened here? Her mom died? Oh how sad. :,( Wanna know how she died? What happens between Jerome and Nicole? You'll find out. Soon.

Sorry for the short chapter. But you'll have to admit. A lot happened.
