50~Another Family Reunion

We all met at the cemetery after the service

As the pastor spoke his words Ethan and Grayson looked at both caskets as they lowered into the ground

When everyone said there goodbyes, I couldn't help but look at the three empty spaces next to their headstones. I guess they had already planned a place where their children would be buried

After the funeral Brie, Olivia and I walked the twins to their house

We all walked them to the door and hugged them

I hugged Ethan. We part and as I begin to say something he looked at me and said "we'll be ok"

Ethan's POV

After the girls left me and gray started cleaning up the house

"Bella invited us to dinner at her house next week"

Grayson says nothing. He just keeps cleaning and putting stuff away so I decided to do the same

I got tired of it after awhile and said "Gray we have to talk about this"

"I know I just...I just need to think"

I  frown my eyebrows "this isn't just about mom and dad is it?"

He's silent

"What happened between you Brie?" I fold my arms

"I...I don't know. Just let me think" "Gray-"

"I said let me think" he raised his voice

And so I did

Isabella's POV

I came home and saw my dad sitting at the table with his tux still on

Even though he didn't know them very well he still went for Ethan and Grayson's sake

"How are they?" "Fine. I hope"

I hear the doorbell ring and go to answer it

I open it and see a man standing at the door "Isabella?"

"Yeah? Do I know you?"

"I'm Alex. Your brother"

My dad instantly gets up from his chair and runs to the door

Alex looked at him then back at me "May I?" I realized he was still standing there

I move over to the side and let him in. He walks in and takes a seat

At least it's safe to say he's human

We all sit at the table

"I have so many questions. Uh how did you find us?"I go on

"Kate" "Kate?" "We were uh acquaintances and she told me after she left that she was going after you. I got a note last night saying you were alive"

"Speaking of...how are you..." my dad interrupted "a spell. Which I'm assuming is the same thing keeping you two alive"

Ne and my dad look at each other "actually. I'm a vampire. A hybrid if we're getting technical"

"A hybrid? Wait so do I have the curse?" He started to slowly panic

"No" my dad says. "No?" I say

"Alex is your mothers and my son"

"Woah woah woah so you're telling me our mom had two baby daddies" Alex laughs

"No just a psychotic murderous stalker"

Alex stayed with us for a few days and in those days Dad was the most tease I've ever seen him
