Chapter Thirteen

The drive to Cara was excruciatingly long. At some point I fell asleep. The music faded in a far distance and my vision became blurry as i drifted off to sleep.

James sang to the music playing in the car. Machine Gun Kelly is a heavy metal artist and I must say James has such good taste in music but I'd prefer Lucas Coly and Shawn Mendes those are my top favourite artists. Their music is so realistically relatable.

"Dude wake up" James begin shaking me with all his force as he mumbled words I could not understand. i think he wasn't speaking English. "Leave me alone." I said waving my right hand in his face. "Idiot get your ass up. We here!" He screams dragging me out of the car. I don't know where 'here' is exactly but if this is where Cara is then that's a good sign.

"Uncle Cy look there's my mom. Uncle Cy!" Cara shouts from the front door. Who the hell is uncle Cy anyway and why Is she calling these men uncle they just a few years older than her? "Wait...what... She's your mom...but you're too old to be her daughter." I hear the guy Cy says.

The moment I end up at the front door Cara grabs me in a tight hug. Surly I know she is not going to leave my side after I have been away from her for about almost a week now. "Alexis I missed you so much, don't leave again with that dweeb." Cara tells me, mocking Mitch. Mitch looks in my direction and rolls his eyes then laughs.

"Oh come on Cee I'm not that annoying." Mitch sarcastically says with laughter as a tear rolled down his left cheek. "Really? Then stop calling me that stupid pet nickname you gave me."Cara suggests, crossing her arms in front of her chest in a anger manner. All I could do was erupt in fits of laughter at just seeing how adorable Mitch and Cara is acting. Clearly Cara likes the fact that Mitch has given her a nickname by she won't tell him that of cause. Teenagers

these days. Urgh they too cute for me.

"You have a daughter?" A guy from behind me questions causing me to jump out of shock. "What the hell? Don't do that!" I said swatting him with my left hand. Gosh I hate when people walk up on me like that it's just terrifying. "Answer the question Lexi." he demands looking at me with concern in his eyes. I dearly missed him and I know him and I have alot to catch up on but now's not the time. "No she was kidnapped just like me. I took her in." I explained then walked off and joined Cara and James.

James had Cara on his lap even though she's to old to be sitting on someone's lap. They were talking about Al the things she learnt while we were not here and of cause she was nagging about how annoying Mitch was. "Alexis Look James bought me a designer hoodie. Don't I look cute?" Cara asks me as she spins around. Before I could answer her Mitch beats me to it. "You're too old to be cute." he said. This remark made Cara so angry that she began hitting and pulling his hair. This went on for some time and a few glasses even broke. Cyrus was screaming towards them, telling them to stop but they did not listen. They kept play fighting. Once they stopped to take a break they just went at it again and again and again.

"Okay, Okay stop what I was trying to say is that you're beautiful and not cute because woman are not cute but beautiful." Mitch says surrendering his hands in the air. Mitch's hair is all messy and his face is red also there was scratch marks all over his chest and yes he was bare chested for some unknown reason.

"Can someone tell me why we at Cyrus's place again?" I asked to whoever was listening.

Everyone looked in my direction and just stared at me as if I already knew the answers. "Well since he is your brother and he has his own house I thought that maybe it's best you and Cara live with him." James explains walking towards the back door. He takes out the cigarette from behind his ear, places it in his mouth then removed his leather jacket and takes the lighter out. James placed the Jacket on the kitchen counter and looks at me with an unintended look on his face. "What? No you can't just make these kind of decisions without consulting me first." I said with fury, storming off to James car. James ran after me screaming. "Yes I can. It's better this way."

"I'm not staying here." I roared opening the cars door as I got in I slammed the door close behind me. "Get out of the car Alexis!" James screams banging on the door.

I left him standing the for about an hour. I did not care if I was wasting his time. It's not his responsibility to make decisions for Cara and I, also since when does he knows what's best. Clearly he hasn't made such good choices so far. His the reason I'm here in this damn country in the first place. I can't even think straight when I'm around him.

Cyrus has some agenda. My brother has become friends with shady people and it got me resenting him even if I missed him all these years, even if I just found out that his alive. What if he is the reasons why our parents are dead. Maybe it was no accident and he somehow got rid of all the evidence. Cyrus is a different person. His not my brother that I know he was supposed to be if that makes even sense. I can't live with a killer.
