Chapter 15

I was so nervous.I was sitting in Brian's car with him.He told Jace and Justin to go in.Today is the day.

"So max,its very simple,if they ask you something you answer.Tell them everything your parents did to you.If you get too uncomfortable look at Jace I think he'll help".I relax when he said Jace's name.

"Okay".I took a deep breath.

"Okay you got this kid".he ruffled my hair.

We got out of the car and went inside,there wasn't a lot of people here about 30-35.There was a table at the front where my lawyer and i sat.I look over at the other table where my parents and their lawyer sat.I don't even know why they have a lawyer.My mother look at me and rolled her eyes.My dad kept a straight face.

"All rise for the entry of judge Simpson".

Everyone stood and the judge came in,he nod and everyone sat down.

I look at jace who was sitting between his parents.He gave me a smile and I relax more.

After all those stupid talks my lawyer got up.

"I will now call Junior Jackson to the stand".My dad got up lazily.

"Place your hand on the bible".

My dad place his hand on the bible the officer held out to him.

"Repeat after me,I promise to tell the truth,the whole truth and nothing but the truth".

"I promise to tell the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth".

The way my dad smirk I know he won't tell the truth.

"Now Mr.Jackson,you're the father of Cody max Jackson?".

"Obviously".my dad replied.

"Answer the question properly".the judge said sternly.

"Yes".

"And you love you son?".

"Yep".

liar.

"So you wouldn't do anything to hurt your son?".

"I would never hurt my son".

lies

"Really?So on October third you never put a gun to your son's head?".

"No I didn't".

"Is that the truth?".

"Yes it is".

"The whole truth?".

"Judge he's pressuring the man".my parents lawyer stood up.

"I'm finish for now".my lawyer said and sat down.

"I will now call Cody Jackson to the stand".my parents lawyer said.

I nervously got up and slowly walk to the stand.The officer smile at me and held out the bible.

"I promise to tell the truth,the whole truth and nothing but the truth".I said.

He smile and went back to his place.

"Cody Jackson,you were at an orphanage?".

"Yes".

"Why?".

"I ran away".

"Why?".

I was going to give him a sarcastic answer but thought about it.

"My parents were abusing me".

"Why?".

"There isn't a good reason,my mom said that she didn't wanted a child,my dad never really like me but the abusing started when I was eleven".

"Did your dad put a gun to your head?".

"Yes".

"Why are you not dead then".if I was not in the pace I would have laugh at what he said.

I raise a brow at him."would you let someone shoot you?I kick him in his shin and ran.That was the day I ran away".

"How do we know you're telling the truth?".

I look over at the crowd,I was getting nervous,my eyes landed on jack,tent the at jace.He smile and mouthed 'i love you'.I took a deep breath and smile.

"Why would I lie about getting abuse,why would I run away for no reason,I'm not desperate for attention and I know how serious this is".

"Then why are you smiling?".he raise a brow.

I look at jace who was still smiling.

"Because my boyfriend just told me he loves me".

"Who's your boyfriend?".he raise a brow

I pointed at jace.

"Fucking faggot!".my dad yelled.

"What was that Mr.Jackson?".the judge ask

"I'm going to beat the hell out of you when this shit is ov-".

I stuck my tongue out at him ,he's just realizing what he's saying.

$$$$$$$

The jury handed the envelop to the judge.

"We found the defendant guilty for the murder of 30 year old Rojay Jackson for attemptive murder of 15 year old Cody Jackson and the abuse of Cody Jackson.You're sentence to life in prison without parole ".he knock his hammer on the table and my dad started acting out.

"Fuck you,he's a faggot!".

I wanted to laugh but I held it back,I just smile.I'm free from my parents,my mom will have a court day next week but I don't care I'm free!I ran into jace waiting arms.

"You did it".he ruffled my hair.

Everyone else hug me.Ms Kay came over to us.

"Well um....Cody I need to talk to you".

I nod and let go of Jace's hand.We went outside the room.

"You have a new family that wants to adopt you".she smile"I promise you will like this one".

"Okay when will I see them?".

"We could leave now.."

"I'm going to say bye to them".

She nod and I walk back over to the group.

"I have to go,a new family wants to adopt me".

Jace pulled me in from a kiss and I blush but kiss back.Seriously....in from of his parents.

"You're coming too Jackson".Ms.Kay point and jack groan.

He hug tent and wave at the others.

Jack and I talk to whole car ride about what my new family would look like,if they were nice.When we reach the orphanage Ms.kay turn to us.

"Why don't you go pack,then you will meet your new parents and Jackson you do the same".

"Why am I packing?".Jack ask

"Should we see the parents first?".

"You'll getting adopted too Jackson and trust me max you'll love your new parents".

Jack and I look at each other but didn't move until Ms.Kay gave us a little push.

Jack and I pack in silence.When we were done our bags were taken away from us by the security and Ms.Kay came to us.

"Jack I want you to be a very good boy,stay out of trouble and please go to bed on time.You were annoying but you were one of my favorites".

"Max,its been less than two months but you're my favorite.Stay out of trouble and love that boyfriend of yours".

"We will miss you".we said in unison.She gave us both a hug,making us breathe heavily.

She open her office door to her office and I gasp when I saw my new family.

There stood jace between Justin and Brian.Trent stood between two man,his dads I guess.I didn't move.I look at jack and he was looking at me,his face expression told me what he was think 'what is going to here?'.

"W-what?"I stuttered.

"Max,jack these are your new parents and their sons".Ms.Kay said.

I smile,I couldn't believe it,I was getting adopted by my boyfriends family.That walk over to us since we weren't making a move,I immediately wrap my arms around jace.I want to cry but just sobs came out.I am so happy right now.

$$$$$$$$$

Jace and I were on his bed in his room,well our room.There is a lot more rooms but jace decided. Justin and Brian are having a game night tomorrow night to bring together the two families.

Jace is now telling me how all this happen.

"Trent came out to his dads and they wanted to meet jack,he told them he was an orphan and the wanted to meet him Trent secretly followed Jack and let his parents saw him and they like Jack.I don't want my boyfriend in an orphanage or near his parents,I want him in my arms,every night,on my chest. I want to wake up to him every morning and fall asleep with him".

I snuggle closer to him,I really love jace.

"I love you".I mumbled and kiss his neck.

"Show me".he move and got on top of me,removing his shirt.

"Gladly".
