Chapter 14
Stryker’s P.O.V
What the hell was I thinking? Kissing him again and telling him about my mom. The rest don’t really know the truth about my mom leaving. Well only Hopper does, but not the twins, Codie, Maddie, Rayden, hell even December doesn’t even know. And she’s family.
All I was supposed to do was find him and bring him back. The rest could’ve went, but no my dad made me go find him and the rest look after the kids.

We finally made it back to his grandma’s house. Everyone was waiting inside. I got out and made my way inside. I didn’t even bother waiting for him. After what I did I don’t think I could ever look him in the eye. Sure I’m a bad boy at school and I have reputation to protect, but when I’m around him I don’t care about what others think or how I should be dating the school slut. It’s like common sense leaves the building and is replace by impulse to kiss him whenever I get the chance.
Once I was inside I just walked past the adults that were waiting for Zeke’s arrival. The rest of us were planning on eavesdropping on the conversation that was going to take place.
Before I could make past them, like my plan was, I was stopped by Zeke’s dad.
“Did you find him?” now he cares about him. I mean the guy has been gone for a very long time, from what I could get from the yelling that was going on after Zeke left the house.
“Yeah he’s in the car,” might as well just tell him so I could get a good spot for eavesdropping.

After a few more questions I was free to go, talk about being back at the police station again. I made my way outside to the terrace where Codie, Rayden, Archer, Hopper and Keagan where waiting. Someone is missing.
“Where’s December?” it finally clicked who was missing once I got closer to the group. They were all sitting down and December can never sit when something like this happens. She paces back and forth ‘til someone literally had to stop her.
“She’s over there,” Hopper pointed out towards the backyard where she was in fact pacing back and forth biting her nails. I looked past her and saw that Sage, Lennox, Sam, Lennox’s boyfriend, and Tess, Sage’s fiancée were sitting at the gazebo.
We got to know Sage and Lennox while Zeke’s relatives duke it out. Lennox was obviously gay and he’s with Sam. He told us how he went to juvie for going a joy ride, while he robbed a store for money. He caused a lot of damages while driving recklessly. So he says.
As for Sage he was a druggie and he said he was so close to dying that when he was taken to the hospital his heart actually stopped. He also told us how he met Tess. Together for two years now.
Something else we learnt about them was that Lennox was twenty-two years old and his sibling were Dawn and Dusk, while Sage was a year behind him twenty-one and already to get married. His two younger siblings are Rayne and Cloud.
“How long do you think they are going to be talking for?” Codie asks.
“Who knows?” I went walking past December so I can talk with Lennox and the rest.
“How come you guys are out here and not inside?” once I was in talking range.
“Well once our mom’s saw us and gave us a hug right after they did that they sent us out here,” Sage explain then took a swing at his lit cigarette.
