"Sweetie, let me explain." She begs as I feel tears forming in my eyes. I just nod, not trusting the words to come out of my mouth.
"When I was trying to get custody of you, your social worker gave me the birth certificate and told me about your biological father. We tried for years to track him down. There was no luck which means he is either dead or in witness protection. I'm so sorry I never told you. Please understand where I'm coming from." She begs, I can hear the sadness lacing her voice. I nod.

"I- I do understand why you wouldn't tell me. It's just so surprising." I say quietly.
"So this means that Brady isn't my full brother." I state sadly.

"Hey, that's not a problem. I'm not related to you by blood at all but we are okay." Ashton says rubbing my back. I nod.

"I'm sorry I went a little crazy. I'm just surprised."

"It's okay sweetie. Anyone of us would have done the same thing."

"Hey Skylar, what's this?" Louis asks. I look to see him holding a stack of papers. I sigh.

"Those would be all my prescriptions and diagnoses forms."I explain taking the stack away from him and flipping through them.
"This is for my anxiety medicine, depression medication, mood swings." I name off all the prescription.

"How many illnesses do you have?" He asks curiously. Ashton slaps him on the head making me laugh.

"It's fine Ash. He's curious and I have no problem talking about it." I say.
"I was diagnosed with three forms of anxiety, depression, anorexia, anger issues, ADD, trust problems, PTSD and was classified as suicidal all in four years." I explain making his and Luke's eyes widen.

"I never knew all that." Luke whispers. I shrug.

"I don't really hide it. Anxiety obvious, depression obvious, anorexia you never witnessed, anger not really, ADD kind of grew out of, trust DEFINITELY, PTSD the doctors and suicidal... Is just... Yeah." I say not really knowing how to explain it. He nods and I put away the files.
"I think that's enough for today. How about we all go to sleep and enjoy our last day here tomorrow?" I propose and Everyone nods. Since tomorrow our last day in Australia, we decided to just have a chill day at the house before we go back to LA and the boys have endless amounts of interviews. Since I've been back the past month, conspiracies and news articles have been something we had to deal with everyday. We never confirmed or denied anything, in fact we haven't spoken out about it at all. The only other people who know are Luke's family because they called once they saw all the news. We told them about me and Mel and they were understanding. We were actually supposed to visit his parents while we were here in Australia but they had already planned a cruise for this week so we sill just have to wait until Christmas in about two weeks when they can also meet Mel. I bet that will be an... interesting trip to say the least.
