Chapter 1.33: A Night to Remember

-

"So how about grilled cheese for our midnight snack?" Seth asked, looking very unsure of himself in the kitchen. Isobel laughed, he really didn't know how to cook. 

 "Sounds good to me," Isobel said with a yawn. They had both ordered appetizers and then left the restaurant because of how expensive it was. "Sounds perfect," she corrected herself. She had to admit she was somewhat nervous about him cooking from the freaked out look Valentine was giving him.

 "Are you sure you don't want me to cook?" Isobel asked him. He nodded, grinning from ear to ear because it was going well. "He says he can do it," she told Valentine, who laughed nervously. Isobel went over and sat down next to his sister. She was watching some kind of soap opera.

 "This shit is funny," Valentine said, grinning at Isobel. Valentine had been more than happy to help the two of them communicate without Hayden knowing which was great. 

 A few minutes later there was a horrible high pitch shrieking sound filled the small house they were all and the house filled with smoke. "Oh my fucking God! I knew he couldn't do it! Shit!" Valentine said, jumping off the couch. 

"Oh shit! Oh shit!" Seth yelled out, freaking out worse than Valentine and Isobel were. "I thought I had it! I really did!" he yelled. Isobel wasn't sure if she should laugh or run out the door screaming.

So instead she grabbed the fire extinguisher because both of them were still having a moment and the fire was getting worse.

    Uh Oh! I hope nothing bad happens other than a ruined sandwich and stove!

    I miss firefighters. This chapter is funny. I'm still very interested to see what Isobel's family thinks of her being at this house.

Chapter 1.47: A Tragic Past

Tabitha "Daddy, can we talk?" I asked. I kept thinking about what I overheard mother saying to this boy, and I couldn't believe it. If what she said was true, then I had two siblings I didn't know about and it was kind of upsetting. All I've ever been told was that I was an only child, and now it's like my whole world turned upside down. "Yes sweetheart?" Daddy asked, smiling at me. I always loved how he talked to me, like I was the only thing that mattered. I smiled, but then shook my head. "Who are Joseph and Valentine?" I asked. I wasn't sure what I was expecting to hear but I sure didn't expect to see the color drain from his face. He looked genuinely afraid, but of what? "Where did you hear about them?" Daddy asked me, and I frowned. "Mother was talking to someone, I think his name was Hayden or something?" I asked, shrugging. The boy wasn't important but the names were, the names of

Authors Note: This chapter starts Serene into the story, or more accurately her point of view. Now that Toby is dead, she officially gets her debut! Also, their wonderful new house they live in is thanks to Glenkarri from the D.N.A team! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mama decided it was best if they move, because papa and the old house was too sad. The old house was filled with the haunting old tunes of the piano, the laughter from when he told us silly jokes and the sweet sound of his voice when he read her bedtime stories. This house, it meant nothing to Serene. It wasn't where her papa was, and it wasn't where she wanted to be.    This house made her feel so lonely, so alone. She had been so sad, and cried all the time at first but now she was angry. She was so angry at her mama; it was all her fault that papa died. Serene had heard something, a very bad something and it changed everything.  --------------

Valentine "Umm, I don't know. I wasn't there when my papa died. Why are you asking all these questions?" Serene asked me. I couldn't really tell a ten year old that I wasn't sure why her father died. Hell, I couldn't tell her anything because I didn't want her to say anything to anyone. The last thing I needed was something to happen to Isobel's little sister. "Just making sure everything in the case is all good to go," I said, smiling. I really hoped Serene isn't that bright, maybe my bullshit lie won't be seen through and I can convince her not to worry. "Really, I'm just doing my job. Rookie work, ya know?" I said. "So, nothing new came up?" Serene asked. I had to admit I was surprised by her question, maybe she knew something wasn't adding up and she could help me. "You live with my sister right?" she asked. "Yeah," I answered. "Keeping her safe?"
