The Way Home (A Cimorelli Fanfic)

Chapter 5

Lyanna's POV

Dad, Mike, Alex and Bobby brought the rented van and car back to the owner and they came back to Bobby's house in the tour bus. When I got in the bus, I must say; I was impressed. In the first area are on the left and the right a large couch. A small kitchen on the very end of the right couch and there are two tables which you can collapse from the left wall. When you go through a door there are 15 bunk beds. 3 bed above each other, 9 on the left of the bus, 6 on the right. On the right is also a small bathroom and a closet. In the very end on the bus is another sitting area and a table is standing in the middle.

Lauren shows met in which beds everyone sleeps when we have to ride at night. I sleep in one of the middle bunks, Lisa and Lauren have dumped their bags on it but they quickly remove them so I can sleep in the bed. Lauren has the bunk above me and Lisa sleeps beneath me.

'What do you think?' Amy grins at me. 'This is so cool! And the bus is very large!' I exclaim happily. 'Wait until you've spend a few days in here with 13 people, it's not always that cool.' Alex warns me and Dani shoves him. 'Hey! It's always fun with us!' While those two are bickering I walk back to the first area and see that Lisa is scrolling on her phone while sitting on the couch and Kath is writing in one of her journals at one of the tables. I close the door behind me and sit down next to Lisa. 'Hey, have you put your stuff in your bunk?' She asks nicely and puts her phone away as I nod at her. 'Yeah, I can't wait until we get the rest of my stuff and leave this place.' I sigh and she puts her hand on my thigh. 'We will, mom and dad are already informing the driver, so we will leave anytime soon.' I look at her hand and blush a bit. 'I hope so' I finally get out, hoping that my older sister didn't hear the nervousness in my voice. She is about to say something when my mom opens the door from the driver's seat to the "living room" 'Were going to leave now!' She says and Joey, Nick and Christian burst into the room as well. Mike soon follows together with Christina and Bobby and dad takes the seat next to the driver. 'The police is already there, you guys can go in, let's go.' He says sternly and we drive to the house.

It must have looked weird. I have lived in a very small neighborhood where everyone knows each other. If there is something going on with a family most of the neighbors know it before you can say "problem". So when a tour bus drove into my street almost everyone went outside. The driver, whose name is David, parked the car right in front of the house that I called home for almost 18 years. We all get out and a lot of neighbors have now walked over to my front yard. 'I want to go with you.' Bobby stands in front of me and clenches his fists. 'No, Bob, you can't the police only wants my sisters and I in there.' I take his hands and squeeze them. 'But-' He starts again and I put my hand on his lips. 'Shh. I'm going to be fine.' I let go of him and the girls and I walk to the door and I ring the bell. Bella opens the door and looks at me disapprovingly. 'I thought I told you to go alone?' She asks me with her cold voice. 'Yes, but you were talking about calling the police, you never mentioned my sisters.' I tell her with no emotion in my voice. I see her flinch at the word "sisters" and she gives the girls a death glare. 'Fine, come in.' We walk through the hall to the living room and see Jake standing in the middle. 'There you are.' He fakes a smile and opens his arms, but I do not walk over to him and give him a hug. 'Very well, you will have a lot of questions, but please let us explain.' He tells me with a soft voice, he sits down and pats on the couch next to him, but I so not sit down. I stay standing with my sisters. Bella joins Jake and he starts telling.

'I was in love with your mother, Lynne. She was a fine women and to be honest the first few times we saw each other I tried to get into her pants.' He grins when he sees mine and my sisters' expressions. 'Your dad, Michael, stopped me every time. I forced my beloved Lynne into a relationship, because I thought she would eventually love me. But I was wrong. One night I almost had sex with her, but of course Michael had to burst in. He took her with him and gave me a black eye. From that moment on I was broken. Lynne married the asshole and two years later they had their first son. I was already planning on breaking Lynne's heart just like she did to me, but when I found my new love, Bella, we got even more obsessed with it. Bella wanted to punish her and what is more devastating than losing a child? We knew she was pregnant, so first we planned on killing the child. But then I thought of something more painful for Lynne. We decided to kidnap the child and send pictures with a letter every year. In that way she would be reminded of her loss every year. You were born and we found out you had a twin sister, which would make it even more devastating. We would separate the twins. We loved seeing her so hopeless, she was a mess around that time. She never gave up on you, but eventually she didn't grief as much as she did in the first years. That's why we turned on you. We wanted to act like you were our child, but you acted and looked so much like her that we couldn't. You remind me so much of her, so that's why we beat you.'
