The things running through my mind right now makes me feel crazy. It's like at any time I could burst into tears, or just snap.

I can't believe the words that came out of my mother's mouth. It all starting to make sense now.

"I'm so sorry." my mom says pacing back a forth with guilt all over her face.

"Why didn't you tell us?" Penn asks her hands covering her face.

"I just found out, and when I did it wasn't pretty." my mom says rubbing her head in frustration still pacing.

I guess we have a little brother now. Not just that, but our dad could be alive.

I hear my heartbeat in my ears. I can't breath; I feel like I'm trapped. I need to get out, and I need to now.

I get up not saying a word. I need to be strong, but I'm weak. I'm too weak to fight anymore; my hearts done.

"Chloe, please don't be upset with my I wanted to tell you both." my mom says seeing that I'm up and ready to walk away from it all.

"I love you star." I say walking to the front door.

"Mommy, you're just like a star." I tell her walking towards my bedroom.

"How sweetie?" she asks looking at me with a smile on her face.

"You're always do so much for others even when you get nothing in return. I want to be like you mommy. You shine even in the darkest times." I tell her walking into my room.

I finally make it out the door taking a deep breath. I don't know what to do, so I do what I do best: disappear.

I walk down the street thinking of all the things that just happened.

My dad could be alive? How is that even possible? Didn't we go to a funeral?

She said it wasn't real that someone made it up. Why would someone do that to two little girls?

My heart feels as though it's been dragged through the mud, stomped on and set on fire.

Chris did this he did all of it. He took my dad away, and then forced my mom into marriage.

She told us that she didn't love Chris, and that he was just using her to get to our dad.

He was trying to figure out something, but what could be so important?

My phone has rang numerous of times, but I didn't check to see who it was I just kept walking.

After a while it was just me and my thoughts. I never did like being alone with my thoughts it always made me feel crazy. I would think of the strangest scenarios, but never did I think of this happening.

My phone starting to ring again,  but this time I pulled it out of my pocket to see it was James.

"Hey." I say answering the phone.

"Babe, are you alright?" James ask with concerned laced in his voice.

"I'm fine." I tell him even though he can't see me I know he knows I'm lying.

"Where are you?" he asks sighing.

"In a park." I tell him being vague.

"Babygirl I'm serious." he warns.

"I'm at Law park." I tell him with as little attitude as possible.

"I'm on my way please don't move." he says as I hear his engine roar to life.

"Okay." I say knowing he's only doing this because he cares.

"You know your sister called me?" he asks me.

"No, how did she even get your number." I ask him shocked at his small confession.

"She got it so I could get the videos from her, and because she knew if you weren't talking to her you would talk to me." he states confidently which makes me want to hang up in his face to prove them wrong, but I can't.

I just want to be alone, but I know I have to stop running away from my problems. Time to deal with things one step at a time.

"Baby, you can look up now." James says, so I do.

There he is with a small smile that doesn't reach his eyes.

"Hey," I say trying to make myself not seem weak.

"Come here." he says opening his arms big enough for me.

I get up from the bench I just sat on, and walk into his arms. I get that same feeling; safe.

"I'm here okay?" he says brushing my hair with his hand.

"Yes sir." I say looking up at him smiling a bit.

"See there's my girl." he says grabbing my hand walking us towards his car.

"My sister tell you what happened?" I ask curious.

"Nope, she said that's your choice." he tells me opening door to the passenger side allowing me to get in.

He really is something special. Why would anyone think otherwise?

They don't see what I see. I see him for who he really is not just some mistakes he has made.

"What you want to do?" J asks getting into the driver's seat.

"About what?" I ask looking at him more clueless than ever.

"Do you want me to drop you off at your mom's or go with you? Either way you're back." he states matter of factly.

"And why is that?" I ask giving him an attitude.

"Princess, it's not going to work on me. I'm doing this for your benefit." he tells me looking into my eyes giving me this look.

"Why you always do that ole ugly kid?" I ask him and he laughs mumbling something coherent.

"Why you dating me then?" he asks pouting making his lips even more noticeable.

"You have something I haven't seen in someone in years." I tell him thinking of my dad.

"That's a good thing right?" he asks his light brown eyes fill of hope.

"Babe, it's a great thing." I tell him leaning forward kissing his nose.

"Such a tease." he says laughing sitting back in his seat.

"Nu uh just guy start the car, and take me to my mom's house." I tell him looking at the missed calls and messages I received.

"You going to give me the address?" he asks with a faint smirk on his lips probably because I'm taking his advice.

"Yes captain." I say putting the address into his GPS.

I really could just give him the directions, but I don't want to be wrong.

As soon as I put in the address we took off. We weren't talking or making any contact.

I was looking out the window trying to think of what was about to happen. I knew for sure I need J by my side; if he isn't there I'd just do the same thing again.

"Chloe, we're here." James says grabbing my hand lightly squeezing it.

"James, do you mind coming in with me?" I ask him taking a shaky breath.

"Anything for you princess." he says getting out of the car and coming over to my side.

"It seems like we are moving too fast." I tell him climbing out of the car.

"I know, but you know I wouldn't do anything to break that steel heart of yours." he says jokingly but I know he's serious.

"I wouldn't break yours either." I tell him hugging his back while he was walking forward.

"You ready for another memorable moment?" he asks glancing at the door and then at me.

"Aww little my little scaredy cat." I cooed making him turn to face me.

"I'm not scared." he states trying to reassure himself.

"Then knock." I tell him and he spins on his heels hesitating to knock, but finally does.

"That wasn't so hard now was it?" I ask him giggly a bit as the door knob jiggles.

"Chloe, where have you been? Wait who's this?" my mom asks opening the door before he can answer me.

"James, her boyfriend." he says holding out his hand for her to shake.
