The Owl's Kitten (VanossGaming)

Chapter four- Idiot!

'Why did you do that!', 'You could have been killed' blah blah blah. Tj as been going off at me for the past hour, she basically my mother. Tj has even hit me a few times and then cried on me, only to yell at me again.

I felt bad, I truly did. 

"I could of lost you..." She sobbed. 

I sighed and squeezed her tightly in an embrace, "I know and I'm sorry, but now you have the Crew after your gang."

Her body tightened under my grip, I wanted to ensure it was going to be okay but going face to face with the crew is a death wish but no matter what I have to protect them.

"Look I can just go back, hand myself over and y-" I stated only to be cut off by Tj screaming, "NO! We will fight, you are one with us. You are an angel and we will fight for you, even through death."

I felt a wetness on my cheek, I was crying.  "Tj I would love to be apart of your gang but I don't want to put you or any of the gang at risk." 

"I love you as my own sister Kat, I would die for you." Tj cried, "I know and I don't want you to ever die for me."

We sat for a little while, talking about a plan. Introducing me to the gang, laughing over memories. We stayed on chatting over memories as she fixed up the burns and small cuts on my wrist, it was a great way to forget what happened while passing time together. I stared at Tj while she carried on about this boy we knew in grade three, I finally realized how much she meant to me and all her little details. 

The way her blue eyes looked as they were the ocean, her short blonde hair bouncing around her face giving her a happy and cheerful look unlike when she was younger where she had black hair like the night giving her a unknown and mysteries look. My eyes glanced towards her arms which were always covered in jumpers when we were young but now she wear funnel shirts that showed her skin but close enough you could spot the scars of self harm. 

She was different now but she was still my Tj, I could never lose her no matter what. Even her laughter brought me peace as it rang through my ears. I laughed along with her as she remembered about the boy in love with me.

"Remember him? He was so small and would always give you flowers!" She giggled.

"Of course I remember him, he had black hair and would kiss my cheek." I replied with a sly smile.

"Oh that's right you two dated but you had to leave, oh that boy was heart broken. I forget his name, something Fong?" she mumbled, "Wait you must know!"

I nodded "Indeed it was Evan Fong, he was the sweetest. Plus he has been my only boyfriend even if we were just in grade four."

Tj gasped and tackled me, our bodies collided with the floor. As I groaned Tj shouted. " Wait you mean to say you haven't done anything with anyone beside Evan Fong from fourth grade!?" She questioned.

I nodded slowly, "Never had the time to fall in love, plus I promised him remember?"

I sat on a small bench, My legs dangling as my small frame barely fit on the thing. I saw him running towards me with tears in his eyes, Tj gave him the news. "No!" He screamed as he hugged me.

"I'm sorry." I whispered. Tears ran down his face, His lips shaking. I sighed and gave him a small box, at first he was confused yet he opened it. Inside was a card drawn by me and a necklace with a locket on it. He always liked owls so I got him one that could open. I stopped him from opening it. 

"Inside there is a photo of you and me from Halloween, I'm on one side and you are on the other. Remember when you were that owl and I was the black cat?" He nodded wiping away his tears. "I'm going to miss you..." He mumbled.

I kissed his cheek as my dads horn rang, " I will always remember you and I will wait for you, I promise Evan. I waved as I ran towards the car. All he could do was squeeze the box and wave goodbye.

"You still like him uh?" Tj laughed. 

My face heated up, "Oh so you do!" She laughed louder. "Shut up." I groaned. 

"You won't even know what he looks like, he could be ugly for all you know." Tj teased. "Looks aren't everything." I stated, she just rolled her eyes. 

I jumped as my laptop went off, "That must be dad." 

I fist bumped her than ran towards the room. I lifted the laptop and accepted the video call, there I saw my dad smiling or so I wished. He had a deadly look, one I have never seen before.

"Hey dad, whats wrong?" I questioned.

He sighed, rubbing his temples. My gut twisted, something was very wrong. I could hear mums cries in the background, dad had tears forming. Chocking for words. "Dad...please whats wrong?" I sobbed.

I was scared. Frightened for what he was about to say. "We found him." He stated.

Now I was confused, "found who? Why is he so important?" 

"Your brother, we finally find him. We never told you about him because we were afraid we would never find him and you would go after him." My breath got caught in my throat. "He is twenty-one now, you're just a few years younger then him. His name is Craig sweetie, apparently he is in a gang in your area. We can't find which one, we believe you can possibly find him and reunite the family. Me and you're mother cannot help because we are being sent on a mission. I will talk when I can."

I nodded as tears streamed down my face, "goodnight dad." I chocked out.

The video called ended, I stared off into space. "I have a older brother?"
