"Hey mom, you want to come over to Brooke's for dinner? Her stepmom wants to meet you."

"Oh! Yes! I'll make something and come right over!" She said excitedly. We were currently sitting on my bedroom floor with the phone on speaker mode.

"Okay and Brooke wants you to bring the others too."

"Of course! We'll be over as soon as we can!"

"Okay mom. Bye."

"Bye sweetie!"

He hung the phone up and looked at me. "So what do you think is going to happen?"

"I don't know. I guess anything at this point."

"I'm excited!" He said smiling.

"Me too!" I said laughing.

I was watching TV with Ashton when the doorbell rang. I ran to answer it.

"Hey!" I said as Theresa wrapped me in a hug.

"Hey sweet pea!"

"Brookelyn! Who's here?" I heard Janet yell.

"Ashton's mom."

Janet walked in smiling. "Well hello I-" She stopped short and her eyes got wide. I looked at Theresa and hers were wide too.

"You?! You're Brooke's step mother?!" Theresa screeched.

"This whole time you only lived two minutes away from me?" Janet yelled back.

"You guys know each other?" Ashton asked.

Theresa turned to her kids smiling. "Kids, I'd like you to meet your lovely auntie Janet." She said smiling sarcastically.

All of our jaws dropped. They're sisters...

"I thought I got rid of you years ago, baby sis."

"I thought so too when you decided to run away and get knocked up." Theresa laughed.

"Oh shut up. You act like you're so much better, but you got knocked up too!"

Henry cut in. "Wait! I'm a bastard baby?"

"Yes, but I love you and your dad is your real dad so don't worry." Theresa said. Right as she did Jim came in carrying some stuff.

"Jim! How nice to see you again!" Janet said.

He looked up and sort of yelled in fright. "Wow Janet. It's been a while, you scared the hell out of me."

Her evil smile turned down. "It has been a while, but not long enough."

"We haven't seen you since the wedding. You were the one wearing black right?" He asked, throwing his arm around Theresa.

"Yes, and I got the hell out of there as soon as I could. It was appalling."

"Well nobody missed you, sister dear!"

"You were always the favorite."

"Oh here we go." Theresa said in an exasperated tone. (I might add though, that the rest of us were standing there with our mouths still hanging open.)

"Mom and dad liked you the best! There's no way you can deny it!"

"Yeah I can! Because if you weren't always such a complaining bitch maybe people would like you more! I mean the first guy that knocked you up left you and you had to give up the baby and then you managed to get knocked up with my lovely niece Monica, but then he left you and you found an idiot dumb enough to marry you. No offence Brooke." She said because she called my father an idiot.
