Finding Ava

Chapter 6

I'm awakened by Aaron gently shaking my arm. I slowly opened my eyes, trying to adjust to the bright sunlight beaming on my face. When I finally got them to open I realized we were at Aaron's friend Vin house. Its a nice, three story bricked house with three garages. I loved coming here and play with the twins. The oldest son is hot as fuck and has the most gorgeous eyes I've ever seen.

I gathered all of my things together and opened the door, stepping out of the car into the hot, blazing sun. I helped Aaron get our suitcases out of the trunk, and Vin came outside to help us.

"Hey guys!" he smiles warmly.

"Hey!" we say in unison.

"Oh no. Let me get that for you." He pushes us aside and grabs our suitcases. "Go on inside." We walked towards the house and the twins came running towards me.

"Ava!" they squealed hugging my legs.

"Hey cuties!" I smiled, bending down to hug them. "I missed you guys!"

"We missed you too!" I grab both of their hands and walk inside of the house. They pulled me into the living room where their mother and brother were. I couldn't help but giggle.

"Hey Ava. How are you sweetie?" Ariel says standing up, giving me a hug.

"Hey. I'm fine, how are you?"

"I'm good. Its nice to see your pretty face around here again." she smiles.

"You too." I smile back. Blake stands up and walks towards me with a smile on his face. His beautiful ocean blue eyes looked so amazing. I smiled back at him, as we gave each other a hug.

"What's up? Long time, no see." Blake says.

"I know. I've been hella busy for the past year with school and everything. But you still could've called or texted me if you wanted to talk to me that bad." I tease him. He chuckles and rolls his eyes at me.

I sat down on the floor with the twins to play with them. They were building these little forts and knocked them down when they're done.

"Ava I put your things in the room you slept in last time." Vin informs me.

"Ok, thanks Vin." I thank him.

"You're welcome sweetie."

A loud crashing sound is heard by Justin and Jason from knocking over their fort. They laughed and began to build the fort all over again. I really enjoy watching them play. It makes me wish that I had small siblings.

About an hour later I went upstairs to change because I needed to get used to this California heat again. I changed into my volleyball shorts and a crop tank top. Blake and I took the twins out in the backyard to play on their playground set. They wanted to get on the swings first so I helped Justin get on the swing, while Blake helped Jason. Once they were on we began to push them.

"Don't forget to swing your legs in and out." Blake instructs them. They do exactly what they're told and tells us to push them higher. Their giggles filled the air making Blake and I laugh with them. I freaking love them! They're the most adorable kids ever.

"Higher!" they giggle out. We pushed them a little higher and they were having the most fun in their lives.

"So what's been up with you?" Blake asks.

"Not much, but I just find out something that I'd rather tell you later than right now." I explain to him and he nods. "What about you?"

"I've been busy with school and everything."

"You go to USC, right?" I ask.

"Yeah." he nods his head and I do the same.

The twins wanted to get off the swings and play on the slide. "Can you come down with me?" Justin asks pulling my arm. I smiled down at him.

"Sure." I shrug. We go at the top of the slide and I sit down as Justin sits between my legs. "Ready?" I ask him. He quickly nods. I give us a push and we make our way down the slide.

"That was fun! Again! Again!" he shouts clapping his hands together.

After playing outside with the twins for a good two hours we went back inside to have a little snack. Ariel made these wraps with guacamole. I was surprised that Justin and Jason liked them. Little kids barely eat their veggies.

The wraps were amazingly delicious, the twins and I got another one. Blake, Aaron, and Vin got three while Ariel just ate one. It was so good!

"That was amazing Ariel." Aaron says wiping his mouth with a napkin.

"Thanks. I try my best." Ariel giggles, showing her perfect teeth. I got up from my seat and threw my trash away, then went upstairs to lay down.

I grabbed my portable charger out of my bag and connected it to my phone. I laid down on the familiar, soft bed and turned on the tv. Before I could even get comfortable there was a knock at the door.

"Come in!" I called out. The door swung open and Blake walked in. He sat at the bottom of the bed facing me.

"I was wondering if you wanted to tell me about the thing you just find out about? You don't have to if you don't want to." he says.

For a minute I didn't know what he was talking about but it came to me. "Oh. Um sure." I say sitting up. I cleared my throat before speaking. "Well...basically I just found out that Aaron isn't my father. I kind of figured it out myself because we stopped at the gas station and I saw these missing person posters. It was a little girl who looked just like me so I started reading her information. It said that she has a birthmark on the side of her neck and I have one too. So...yeah that's the story." I explain.

"Wow." Blake says looking completely shocked.

"But he says he really didn't kidnap me because my mother left me to drown in a lake and he saved me."

"Are you ok with everything?" I nod, as a single tear rolled down my cheek. Blake caught it before it fell on my arm.

"I'm sorry. I'm just a little emotional right now." I choke out.

"Its fine. You don't have to be sorry." he says wiping away my tears.

I managed, to stop crying a few minutes later and fixed my face. I'm such a total mess. Its so embarrassing. Blake laid with me until I fell asleep. I needed to take a nap and sleep this stuff off.
