Their Secret » Shaytards

Chapter One

So here's my first story on this account. I hope you all enjoy it and have a fun time reading it. Updates will be slow for now, but I also have another shaytards story on @wanheda_walker.

This is a different kind of story and I haven't really seen many people write about this. (I could just not have found them but whatever) but enjoy.

I waited patiently in the basement, listening to what dad was telling the viewers, about how he was going to be starting another book for everyone who watches these stupid vlogs.

You may be thinking, why is she calling them stupid? She must have the perfect life! But no, if you really knew how it all was you would rather be anyone else than me.

When I was born and they started the vlogs they didn't want the kids in, especially me because I had some issues and would be a little scared of the camera, but eventually Gavin and Avia and Emmi were showing up in the vlogs and I was no where to be seen.

2 years passed and I was still never in the vlogs, mom and dad decided that I shouldn't be for the sake of my anxiety that is only getting worse each day. Instead of explaining why I never showed up or was talked about they thought to keep it a secret. Keep me a secret. I've tried to explain its okay now, I am capable of being in them, but it's too late now. Our secret has gone on too long. Almost 10 years to be exact.

They said because the years were adding up I couldn't be in them anymore, they would lose viewers because they lied and soon we wouldn't have a house because that's what pays our bills.

I sighed as I saw Emmi coming down the stairs, a book in her hands. I sat back, leaning against the wall. My brown orbs watched as I twirled the thin chain around my neck. "He's done."

"Thanks Loofus." I smiled at her as she sat down on the bean bag chair across from me, opening the book, she read the words inside of it. I looked at the front of the book and read the title. Sisters.

I had given her that book once I finished reading it, she was so excited when I handed it to her.
Smiling to myself I looked down at my clothes. Why was I complaining? As much as it sucked that I was not known by people that know the rest of my family, I have clothes, a roof over my head, the dream house we all wanted many years ago.

It sucks that I couldn't go along the journey but this is how it ended up so now I must live with my life and the future that is untold.

"DINNER!" Mom called down to the two of us, snapping Emmi out of her stare from her book. We shared a glance before standing to our feet and heading up the steps to reach our large living room that connected to the kitchen.

Mom smiled weakly at me, looking almost sorry. I shrugged it off and continued to walk, smiling back at her and sitting down at the counter and looking at the meal. It was taco Tuesday.

I grinned widely, this was my favorite meal.

Quickly saying our prayer we dug into our delicious meal, talking amongst each other. Conversations about school and the snow were going on, the mention of what happened to Bronx was brought up, that topic made me almost cry. And one topic that just had to come up was YouTube. I absolutely despised it, not really because of the app in general or how it was run, but because of my story.

I'll admit, I do in fact have my own channel, but I haven't ever published anything, being scared was what stopped me these last couple years.

"Addy, look." Turning to face my younger brother, Brock smiled, his two front teeth missing and a picture in his hands. I took it from his hands and smiled down at it, dad glancing over before talking to mom once again.

Six stick figures were on the page, our names over top of them. Me, Gavin, Avia, Emmi, Brock then Daxton.

"That's awesome Brock." Handing it back he didn't take it. All he did was smile and run back to his seat, "it's yours." He told me sitting on a stool.

I placed it on the marble counter next to me, continuing to eat the tacos that were in front of me. My heart was beating normally, the sound of my families voices ringing through my ears, the sound of my mothers voice was playing in my head. Her brown eyes watched me as I took a bite, she didn't notice that I knew she was watching.

Coughing a bit she turned away, looking over at Avia now, asking her something.

My mind was scattered all over the place as I thought about everything in general. About how I always was hiding and having to hide anytime someone in our family pulled out a camera. This is the life I'll be having for who knows I
how long.

Is this really how I want the rest of my live to be? For it to be hidden? What's the point?

Maybe there's a way to end it all without the viewers being pissed. I hope so.
