Be My Hero»n.g

Chapter 3

I was with my mom, saying a goodbye at the airport. You could tell it was harder for her then for me. She was sobbing, already, while, I haven't shredded a single tear, yet and I probably wouldn't because I'm not that emotional.

"Thanks mom, for everything. Sorry for be such a pain in the ass. I'm also sorry for leaving, but I really wanna meet and get to know my birth-parents. And I wanna start over. Hopefully, California will give me that chance" I stated.

"I love you Ryder. I'll support you through anything you wanna do, in life. If you ever need a place to stay don't hesitate to call" she said.

"I know" I told her. I gave her a hug, which was probably the first one since, my dad.

We exchanged, I love you's and they soon called my flight, for boarding. I got onto my flight and fell asleep immediately, due to the fact, I didn't get any sleep last night cause I was last minute packing.

I woke up when the plane was descending. It was landing. I looked at my phone and it was 9am.

The flight landed and my mom told me, that I'd have to take a taxi to get to the house, for some reason. She gave me a piece of paper, with the address on it.

I finally got out of the airport and into the taxi. I was mostly on my phone.

My twitter has been blowing up with notifications. And I had no clue why.

California was beautiful. During the ride, I saw a lot of beaches, and parks.

I soon arrive at a nice medium size house. I got all my suitcases, payed the driver and went up to the door.

I knocked and it soon opened. I was greeted by a women, that looked a little like me.

"Hi. Umm I'm-" I started but got cut off.

"Ryder?!" She exclaimed and nodded. "Omg! Hi I'm your birth mom. But, if you aren't comfortable with calling me that, you could call me Gina." She introduced. "Come in!"

She said and I entered. "Thank you so much, for letting me stay with you. I really wanted to meet you" I said and she nodded.

"Of course! I did, too" she responded. Wow she was perky, not like me at all. "CAM! SHE'S HERE! Thats your brother, he's older than you." she said to me.

"Oh, I had a younger brother, back in New Jersey" I told her and she nodded.

I saw, a guy, that actually looked a lot like me. "Hey! I'm Cameron, your brother. Your name's Ryder, right?"

"Yea. You guys, can call me Ry, for short. Its kinda freaky, how much, we look alike" I told him.

"I know" he responded.

"Have we ever met before or something. You seem very familiar and the name Cameron Dallas, sounds very familiar." I asked, wondering, where, I've heard his name before.

"Well, I'm well-known on Social Media and stuff like that. I, do vines and youtube videos" he explained to me.

"Oh ya. I have twitter and instagram, your pretty well-known." I told him.

"Yea. I actually tweeted, something about you." he said.

"Is that why, my twitter, has been blowing up" I asked him.

"Probably" he replied and I laughed. California people are way different, than New Jersey people. I think, I'm gonna like it here. "Well, here, I'll show, you, your room" he helped me with my boxes and we got to my room.

"So, sorry, but I have to ask something" I told him and he nodded. "Wheres our dad?"

"Oh, um" he started. "Our parents, divorced, about 15 years ago. After that, he was never around. I haven't seen him since my high school graduation. Which was, 2-3 years ago." He explained.
