Violet stared at the file labeled 'DO NOT OPEN.' 

'Screw it.' She thought as she grabbed the file and opened it. Violet scrunched her face in confusion as she found a stack of blank paper. 

Scoffing, she hurriedly went through each sheet of paper. Slowly starting to give up, until she reach basically the end of the stack. 

'Birth date....weight...Hospital...Mother's name...Mother's maiden name...father's name..- wait. Mother's maiden name..?'

Mother's name: Rosaline W. Stacy

Mother's maiden name: Rosaline W. Wilson

Father's name: John F. Stacy

"Why does Wilson sound so familiar..?" Violet mutters, walking over to her laptop. She types in the last name and gasps at the first suggestion. "Trevor Wilson?!" 

"What about Trevor Wilson...?" Her father walks in. He takes a look at her face, "you found out..." 

"Duh. Why didn't y'all tell me my uncle is Trevor Wilson?!" Violet makes a face at him, "I'm enemies with my cousin!! And she probably doesn't even know we are related!" 

"don't be mad at Trevor-" 

"Oh, I'm not mad about him! I'm pissed about my parents lying to me and keeping this a secret from me my whole life!" Frustrated tears left her eyes. "What happened to no secrets...?" 

"You were six when you made that up!" 

"Yeah? And I bet you still kept this from me then." Violet bumps into someone's shoulder as she walked to the front door. "Sorry." She looked back...

"Mom?"

"ViVi.." her mom walked towards her with a hug. Violet let her guard down for half a second, "no." She backed up. 

"Violet?" Her mother asked. 

"No." Violet looked up with tear-clogged vision. 

As Violet sat in the drivers seat, thoughts swarmed her mind about driving back to Julie's house, but decided against them not wanting to drag her into her problems. She opted to drive to place near where Luke and her had their date. Another reason she loved that place is that they had randomly placed a keyboard out in the middle of it.

She placed herself behind the keyboard and let her heart flow. 

 Violet:
I know I disappeared last Saturday
My phone died, it was way past late
But I wouldn't take back the memories we made
I wouldn't change nothing, not for a day

I know I stayed up until 5 am
And woke up foggy in the head
But damn, wouldn't take back what I said to him
Talked 'bout talking without the world listening

I'm sorry if it seems like I've been so bad
Think I'm lying but can you just give me the chance
I'm trying my best just to prove
You can't tell me that this wasn't you

Say don't break yourself
So I go break the rules
It's like I'm fading out
But just fed with fools
Say this bad generation's messing up the plan
It's going by fast so just let me be young while I can
Let me be young while I can

I know the lights were flashing, I called your phone
And said, "the party's dying, can you take me home?"
You think that I'd go back and just wanna fix it
Five years from now I know I'll reminisce it
