What now??

Chapter 12

/////Stevie pov//////

I woke up in a strange room. I big window to let the light in across from the bed and then three doors I am guess one for the bathroom and one to go to hall way. I don't know which the other was but I decided to find a bath room. I opened the middle one and found a hallway. I opened the second to find a bathroom. I when to the bathroom and look at the mirror. I what a mess. My hair was fell out of. My ponytail and I saw tear stains on my checks and my eyes where still red. I wondered what happened last night but then i heared Dylan's voice? What?

"Stevie are you in there?" He asked well knocking on the door. Then I remembered. Great.

"Yea."

I stepped out and got a big hug from Dylan. It felt good the last time someone cared to give me a hug well beside my brother. Was at my parents funeral.

"Stevie do you want to talk about what happened last night?" Now or later. Now,

"Sure, can I have breakfast first, though?"

He laughed "no matter what you always think of food."

"Yep" I said with a smile. We walked down stairs where his mom was making pancakes.

"I hope you like pancakes sweetie."

"I do, thank you" she handed me a plate and I sat down and ate. I was hungry. When I was done I realized it was Tuesday.

"Want about school?"

"I called in sick for both of you. You guys had a long night." She answered.

"Thank you,"

"Stew do you want to talk now?" Dylan asked.

"Now, I want to get it over with." I would not tell but he probably won't stop talking about it and I figured the secret was safe.

"You sure?"

"Yes, promise you will keep it a secret."

" yes"

"Ok, when I turned 15, my parents had to leave on a business trip...." Might as well start from the beginning "I was opening my brothers gift when we got a call from the police department. They said that my parents died from a volcano eruption. There body's where not found. None of my family wanted me thought they wanted TJ. He said he will only go where I go. We when to the orphanage on second street. I had a hard time, I was a daddy's girl so it was hard. The only thing that helped was art and music."

"That is why you listen to a lot of music."

"Yea, I had a hard time but when you asked me out things started looking up. I made a few friends. I smiled more I laught for the first time since the day. What happened last night was my brother and I got in a fight. He did not want us to be dating so we were yelling and I told him I was happy and going back to being the real me, I actual started to care about people things that I lost when they died are coming back. I was happy. He was still mad. I tried to leave but he grabbed my wrist and held it. He also said that mom and dad would be mad at me because I was not listening to him. He grabbed my harm because right as he said that he saw hurt in my eyes. I grabbed my bag and ran away. I called you because you were the only person I trusted." When I as done they were both silent.

I waited a minute or two and then Dylan spoke up.

"They were people like that who died and they where on the new, Caleb and Diana Marcus. Was that?" He did not need to finish asking I knew the question.

"Yes"

"You really live in that orphanage?"

"Yes"

//////Dylan pov////////

"Yes" she whispered.

How could this beautiful girl live there and was homeless. She had no parents yet she was able to hold her head up. She put up with the harsh comments I gave her when she came here. I messed up. I should have been nice not mean to her.

"I sorry" was all I can say.

"Don't be the last thing I need is pity. I have had to much of that." She demanded.

"Ok"

"Besides when we moved there TJ made a deal I would try to get along with people and he will adopt me when he is 18. So next year when he turns 18 he will get me out of that place."

"Ok, how bot we watch a movie."

"That sounds good. I have to go to work." Said mom she had not heated the story thank goodness.

"What movie?" She asked as we entered the living room.

"What is your favorite?"

"Do you have wreck-it-Ralph?"

"Surprising it doesn't surprise me that you like that movie."

"Do you have it."

"Yes"

We sat there and watched it I was siting on the couch with her leaning on my shoulder. We had agreed that she wound go 'home' after dinner.

I enjoyed the movie, two hours later I heard two little boy voices come from the entry room. Great time. And the then I heard my older brother come to. He was 18 then the little twin boys were 6. They walked in to the living room and saw us.

"Who's that?" One of them asked.

"Hi, I am Stevie."

She greeted then.

"Hi, I am gabe" said one of the twins.

"Are you jack?" She asked the oldest brother.

"Yes."

"I am TJ sister. Stevie."

"Wow, you should have geared your brother he was panicking that you weren't at school."

"Yea, I should go back. Bye Dylan. Thank you so much, I feel better." She kissed me in the cheek and grabbed her bag.

"Bye" she walked out of the door and I hoped she was really getting better.
