Family (IM5/David Scarzone/Will Jay/Dalton Rapattoni Fic) [ON HIATUS]

Chapter Ten- Memories

Approximately 7 years ago [I swear this was a coincidence]

"Kids, meet your new brother! This is David!" Mr. Pendery announced as he and his wife walked into the house with a nine year old boy.

"A new brother? Yay!" The youngest said, hopping up and down and practically jumping on top of the older boy. "My name's Dana and I'm this many!"

He held up five fingers and the nine-year old responded by giving him a high five.

"No silly, I wasn't givin' you a fiver, I was tellin' you that I am that much old." Dana giggled

"Oh! Oh! I'm Cole and this is Dalton and we're twins!" Cole interrupted the one-way conversation

"We're not twins Cole! I'm older than you!" Dalton frowned and smacked his brother upside the head

"No hitting. S'not nice." Will mumbled, not looking up from his fiddling hands, the seven year old was never good with new people.

"Guys! Give the dude some personal space! He's nine for Pete's sake he doesn't need all of you tormenting him!" Gabe huffed as he got the boy out from the Pendery barricade. "My name's Gabe, I'm your big bro now I guess. That kid is Will, he's very shy so you shouldn't talk to him for about another week or so."

"Gabe! Will can make friends!" Mrs. Pendery scolded, shooing the Hispanic away.

"Yeah! I can make friends!" Will grumbled, avoiding eye contact. "I have Bob and Mr. Tiger."

"Bob is imaginary and Mr. Tiger is a stuffed animal." Dalton told his younger brother

"Nuh-uh, yesterday, Bob and Mr. Tiger and Will and Cole and I had a party and none of you were invited and then Bob broke mom's special vase." Dana pointed out, Cole glared at him and he remembered that he wasn't supposed to share that information so he covered his mouth with one hand. "Oopsie."

"Bob did what?!" The children's mom was quite mad when she heard that. "Well then, I'm afraid Bob will have to have lovely chat with me in his room, with no television or friends over for a week."

Mrs. Pendery took Cole by the ear and dragged him away. The boy whined and followed reluctantly.

"No mom! That's not Bob, that's Cole!" Will yelled but shut his mouth closed when he remembered the stranger in the house.

The nine-year old was giggling. He caught the Hispanic and Asian staring at him so he smiled really wide.

"Wait, does he, is he gonna have his own room?" Dana asked his dad

"Uh, no actually. He's going to share a room with you and Will's gonna move into the extra office."

"Bro bro! Me an' my new bro bro! We're gonna have lots of fun together! Oh oh! We should play hide and seek because Will just liked to play hide and never come out!" Dana clapped excitedly

David made a face of confusion, "Come out? Is Will gay?"

"What's gay? I think that means happy right? I guess he is then? Biggest bro bro! What's gay mean?"

"Gay means you love the same gender, if you were gay then you'd love boys." Gabe said, Dalton, he and Will were talking a bit earlier and weren't paying attention so Gabe gave Dana a strange look afterwards.

"Yes! He is then David, b'cause be loves us and we're boys!"

"Oh okay." David smiled but he was still confused

"Wait, who's gay?" Dalton asked

"Will!" Dana burst out happily

"Am not." Will frowned, he had heard a couple things from some of the people in his class about gay people, he didn't want to be treated like them.

"That's okay Will, I think I'm bi, which is half gay." David reassured the younger boy

"Oh, okay. Then I'm gay too."

"I wanna be gay!" Dana screamed

"No, you're too young to decide that." Gabe said. "Why the heck are we talking about this?"

"That's a bad word Gabey McGaberson." Dana wagged his finger.

"Oh just go and help Will pack and David unpack." Gabe shooed the three boys away and turned back to Dalton to continue their conversation.

Dana led the way with his head held high and a grin on his lips as he walked. He opened the door to his room and showed David.

"This is my room but now it's yours b'cause Willy is gon' move out now. Is gon' be great!" Dana clapped as he tried to move Will's bed all by himself.

"Dana! What're you doing! Will's not moving out yet! Someone just has to sleep in the sleeping bag today!" Their dad had walked in.

"I wanna do it!" Dana screeched and tried reaching for the bag at the top of his closet. "Bag, bag, bag, bag."

"I wanna help." Will pouted, he climbed onto a stepping stool and could almost reach it, but it was too far up.

Mr. Pendery just stood, watching his two youngest boys trying to get the bag but failing. He chuckled as his newest son started to help as well. He was waiting for them to just ask him for help.

Suddenly, David got Will onto his shoulders and they got the bag. Surprised at this, Mr. Pendery was speechless. He had not expected that if he was honest. That his new son and shyest son would get along so well as to automatically have a sense of teamwork in each other.

"I'll just leave you to decide then." The older man said finally, walking out.

"Me! You can sleep in my bed Davey, then I can sleep on the floor!" Dana clapped again.

"Alright, that's fine with me." David shrugged.

The three walked out of the room to see all of their brothers at the kitchen table.

"Welcome to the family by the way David." Dalton smiled.

"My pleasure." The Italian boy shrugged. "So, like we're family then?"

"Yeah and families stick together." Cole added.

"Okay, so nothing will happen between us then?" Dana asked

"No, nothing. We'll be a happy family forever and ever." Gabe smiled
