Chapter 3:Answer me you giant dildo!

"Guys! Come and get these freakin' boxes from up here!" I shouted down the stairs. I had finished packing all the books in our library into boxes and disassembling book shelves. I heard Max, Ben,AJ, and my other 2 brothers, JT and August.

"All of those boxes on the left and all the shelves are ready to go." I said, waving my hand in a circle in the air.

"Mom ordered sausage pizza for us." August groaned picking up an end of a book shelf.

"'Kay ill be down in a bit." I said, looking over some papers I found in the desk. I pulled a folder out of a bin and saw the title. "Eliza Rose Hughes birth certificate." I pulled it out of its portfolio and it was ripped out of my hands. I looked up to see JT staring at me with the birth certificate in his hands.

"You shouldn't look at this." JT said calmly, trying not to yell at me. JT was the oldest out of the four of us and me being the youngest was the one he was always yelling at.

"Why? It has MY name on it." I said being snarky.

"But you'll get angry," JT muttered, "but that's not gonna be my fault." He took the folder from my hands and shoved the birth certificate back in it and walked towards the door. "I'm giving it back to dad and mom." He said and walked out the door. I rushed to my feet and ran down the back stairwell that only I knew about. I beat JT to the kitchen and went through and just about ran in to him.

"What's on there that'll make me mad?" I asked as Max, August and Ben came into the kitchen and behind them came my parents with pizza boxes and garlic bread. JT put the papers above my head and shook his head no.

"Answer my question you giant dildo!" I shouted at him. He was in shock a moment and that was the two second chance I got.

"Oh god she's going to -" I heard Max say and I tackled JT he hit the couch and I grabbed the papers and ran through the kitchen and into the back stair well and up into the tower of our house. I turned and locked the door behind me. I pulled the paper back out of the folder on the paper it had my name and my dads but not my moms it said Jessica carter not Catherine Willis . What the hell? But that means that..... That's not my mom in my kitchen, eating pizza, pretending to be my mom. Jesus Christ a tear slipped down my cheek. I always thought she was my mom and now I see why JT didn't want me to read this. I put my back against the wall and slid to the floor. I heard the door unlock and saw someone come in but I couldn't tell who because my vision was blurry.

"Oh Eli." Max. It was Max, wait he knew.

"You knew?" I asked my voice wavering as I watched him pick up the folder and look at it.

"Parts yes but I always thought Catherine was your real mom." He put down the papers and wrapped me in his arms he put his forehead on mine.

"Eww cheesy breath." I giggled and tried to pretend I wasn't crying just a few seconds ago.

"You know you love it." He said breathing in my face on purpose. I kissed his cheek, standing on tiptoes.

"Thank you." I whispered in his ear. God it's going to be a long day.
