꧁Elise POV꧂

"Morning, Miss.Mercier." I feel a light feather like hand move hair on my face.

I scrunch my eyes and stretch with my eyes closed. Deciding to face the bright light my window offers, I squint my eyes slowly to be greeted by my mother- my mother?

I open my eyes fully and in a second she vanishes. My heart races and I breathe heavily.

"Mom. Mom? Mom!" I sob while I repeat the word that used to comfort me so much.

My door bursts open and I see my older brother stand in the door way.

Tears clouding my eyes, he makes his way over to me in a swift motion. His arms widen and I limply lay in them.

"I-I saw her. She-" I whimper out.

"Sh-Shush. It's okay." He coos.

My head lays in his neck making it wet.

"Hey! How about we eat some pancakes!" He tries to cheer me up. I look at him blankly until he says "I'll make them."

I smile lightly and nod my head eagerly.

We make our way down the stairs toward the kitchen. It's very large like everything in our house. I'm not sure what my dads occupation is. Being the youngest I've always been in the dark.

I have three older brothers.

Gervais is the oldest, he's 26. My second oldest is Lionel and he's 25. The one making me pancakes is Tyson. He's closer to my age being 23. I'm 21 about to turn 22 in two months. It'll be my 4th birthday with out my mom.

"Earth to Elise?" Tyson waves a hand in-front of my face.

I zoom back in to see all his ingredients spread out on the counter ready for him.

"Sorry what?" I scratch my head confused.

"I asked if you wanted any fruit in them." He chuckles.

"Oh! U-Uh.... ya, blueberries!" I reply.

"Alright!" He claps his hands and gets to work.

While he cooks I sit on a bar stool and look out at the drizzly day.

I stare until a heavenly waft of air gets sucked up by my nose greedily. I turn my face to the smell and follow it to the stove.

"Smells good right?" Tyson smirks.

"Yes!" I say excitedly.

"Don't give him an even bigger head then he already has."  Gervais walks in.

Unlike me and Tyson, he has on clothes and not pajamas on.

"Not a fan of sleeping in?" I say looking at his dress pants and shirt.

"I'm being productive- unlike you two bums." He says, snatching a blueberry from a bowl next to the stove.

"Whatever." I snatch the blueberry from his fingers and pop it in my mouth with an overly annoying smile.

"I was attending business with dad." He narrows his eyes at me.

"What do you guys do with dad?" I ask curiously while hopping onto the kitchen island in the middle of the kitchen. The big white marble island is cold and spreads goosebumps on my thighs.

"Business." They reply at the same time with the same monotonous voice.

I scrunch my eyebrows unsatisfied with their answers.

"Yeah. I know that but what?" I say in duh voice.

"You know the rule El." Lionel strolls in. He's also dressed in business like clothes.

I roll my eyes and huff.

"I'm not making pancakes for you connards." Tyson flips the last pancake.
(assholes)

I laugh while taking a plate Tyson made for me. They watch me take my plate to the table enviously, and I sit and stick my tongue out at them.

"vous pouvez faire votre propre." I shrug.
(you can make your own)

Tyson ends up making them pancakes out of the kindness in his heart.

They end up practically inhaling it because as soon as they sit down they get a phone call, and have  "more business to attend."

After they leave Tyson sits next to me.

"What are your plans for today?" I ask Tyson.

"I have to run some errands for dad."

"errands?" I ask confused.

"Rule one."

"Ugh! I don't get why you guys have to keep thing from me! It's so annoying!" I grumble.

"Sorry sis. Dad's orders." He pecks my cheek before leaving. "Remember to text dad if you're going somewhere!" He reminds me.

Rule one- don't ask about business.
Rule two- always tell where your going.

Why the rules exist is beyond me. I only have been told them since I was born.

Scrolling through my phone I decide to go to the mall. I'm bored and shopping always occupies my mind for a while.
