Sofia's POV

I was shocked, angry and confused. He practically threw this bomb of information on me and I can't even think straight right now.
Most of my memories about our past are fake and he knew all along!
For the next two hours he continued to explain me everything he knew and what mom and dad had told him. Even James was a little tense hearing all those horrible situations Dereck and I went through.

"I need air and I need to be alone now, so please leave me alone. I'll come back later." I said truthfully. I was feeling dizzy so I went up to the old library. I grabbed a random book and sat on the small couch in the balcony in the second floor.
It was windy and cold.
I remember being here before. The existence of this place and some areas of it were some of the very few memories that my dad didn't manipulated.
I remember the hospital and the relaxation room, both are connected and they're kind of a building separated from the other buildings underground. There's two doors, both placed in the relaxation room, one dark brown and the other black. The brown one connects with the basement of the library, making it the only way to get in. The black one connects to the other buildings and it was always locked. Anyway, I used to spend most of my free time here in the library reading books with Dereck, now it's just me.
Mrs. Anderson who is 57 now, would give us chocolate chips cookies every time we helped her with something or just for behaving good when we were little, she still does and I have to admit, those cookies are the best, they taste so good, if I could marry anything, I would marry Mrs. Anderson's chocolate chip cookies.
I've been planning for a while to ask for a job in a library.

I love it here!

It's quiet, peaceful, comfortable and it smells like cherry because of this candels Mrs. Anderson buys to hide the smell of old books. For me, it is a safe heaven!
I don't mind that dad's secret base is under the library. It upsets me that my own father, brother, mother, even my grandparents too, have lied to me and played with my brain without me having a say in anything. They treat me like if I'm a baby.
Since Dereck told me everything, I have kept having this flashes. I think that they're my memories returning.
I'm gonna have a serious long talk with dad.
I was about to stand up, but I started feeling very sleepy. He can wait a few minutes right? I'm so tired and this couch is so comfy.
I only slept for like three hours when they brought me here.

Before I could change my mind, my eyelids got heavy and I fell into a deep slumber.

James' POV

"She wasn't ready. Now she's freaking out. I shouldn't have said anything." Dereck said with guilty in his eyes. Yes, it was wrong to keep all those important things from her, especially changing her memories, even if it was for her own 'safety'. I wouldn't have done something like that. I woul've help her through it all. But I'm not a father. Maybe in Tom's mind, it was the right decision. I don't know, I guess I'll know when I'm a father.

"Where's Tom? I need to speak with him. It's important." I said standing up.

"He should be in his desk right now making some paper work and investigating about the guy that turned Carl into a vampire. Come. I'll take you to him, but be careful with what you tell him. Its possible that he's still upset about what happened earlier." He said standing up and leading the way. Tom was on his desk reading and writing like a machine, there were also some pictures of people in his computer. Looks like he didn't felt us coming towards him.

Dereck cleared his throat loudly, but Tom kept working, so he stood closer and patted him on the shoulder making Tom rise his head up immediately.

"Oh! Sorry. I didn't noticed you were here. In what can I help you?"
