Sarah POV:
As Jett continues to stare at me I am thinking of a million different ways this conversation could go. Right as I open my mouth to say something Jett turns around and yells,
"Hunter! Come here, Sarah is on the phone!"
I can feel my eyes widen, my pulse quicken. I'm thinking to myself, shit! This isn't going to be good!
"Jett I-"
He snaps his head back around and gives me a look, a look I've never seen before from him. He wasn't just mad, he was furious. And I could feel my fear rise, which I know is stupid. He would never hurt me in a million years, but it's that look, the same look I get daily from my parents and him, it sends me into a almost panic attack. He must have noticed because almost instantly his face changing to one of comfort. Then what felt like hours later, Hunter comes in and jumps onto the bed next to Jett. Hunter smiles at me and waves, but right as he is about to say something his eyes go wide and he says,
"Sarah, who in the hell hit you?"
I look away and try and hide my face, desperately trying to hide what they have already have seen, as I say,
"No one, like I told Jettson, I fell in the shower and hit my head on the wall handle. Nothing else!"
Hunter just raises a eyebrow and hums then says,
"I have been to that house for as long as I have been alive, your shower doesn't have that Sarah. So tell me, was it your mom or your dad?"
I sit there, with my mouth open, wondering how the hell did he know. I could feel the walls inside me that kept me going start to break down as my eyes filled with tears. I want to tell them everything but I just couldn't get it to come out. The more I tried the harder it become and I started to cry. While both the boys looked worried, scared even seeing as I never cry. I was their rock after all. I was finally able to open my mouth and say,
"Both, but mom is more of the hitter, when she loses control of her temper. Which has gotten worse since-, but dad is way more mental, honestly telling me I am a waste of space, a disappointment and way too stupid to be his. He has only shoved my up onto walls or out of his way. Things were never happy in this house, but it got worse after I gave up a scholarship to go pro...mom has hated me more then before ever since. She wanted me to go to Law school like she did, and to make something of myself, and not be someone that her world looked down upon."
The boys looked horrified. Their normally tan skin was pure white. Jett opened his mouth,
"Wh...so this has been going on 3 years, and we never notice? You never told us? Sarah, we would have helped, gotten you out of there! Please, please tell me she doesn't hit you often...please."
As I stare, I just shake my head and don't say a word. All is silent for what seems like hours till suddenly Hunter sits up and runs his hand through his hair and sighs. I look at him and say,
"I'm sorry Hunter, I never wanted to pull you guys into this. You have more than enough on you alls plate. I don't want to be a burden."
Both boys heads snap to me so fast it was practically a blur, and Jett practically yells,
"No! You will never be a burden to us! We are a damn family, we have to stick together! And I think I can speak for Hunter here that we are not letting you stay there anymore!"
My eyes go wide and I stutter,
"What, what do you mean? I have nowhere to go! I have no real friends here, and no family here anymore so where in the hell am I supposed to go Jett! I don't make enough money to live on my own if I want to make my dreams possible!"
Everyone goes silent for a few seconds, then Jett starts to grin like the dweeb he is and looks at his brother with a raised eyebrow and says,
"You thinking what I'm thinking mate? She would definitely make it here with her talent and skills."
I just can feel myself getting more and more confused as they go back and forth talking. The more they talk, the more excited they got, and the more confused I got. I think to myself, why am I getting a bad feeling about all this? When Jett turns around wildly and had a crazed look on his face and says,
"It's final, your coming to live with us. And we are not giving you the option to say no! Pack you stuff and I will book your flight!"
I just sit there, in shock thinking, woah, wait what? They want me to do what? And stutter out,
"What? You want to to just jump ship? What about my bike? Or the sponsors I have here? I don't have enough money saved up to start over like that!"
Jett just laughs softly, shakes his head and says,
"Honey, we got you. After everything you have done for us, by being our rock to helping our dad work on our bikes so we could train. Giving up on your time to train as well. Let us help you for a change. And your bike would be coming in freight. We have it all figured out! And you will have access to our training place so you can become a even bigger badass on a bike then you already are. Just say yes, get your ass on the plane and be happy and carefree. Because you deserve the world Sarah."
I sit there, looking at these two crazy but loving boys in front of me. For the first time in my life I felt honest and true hope. Hope for a better life, hope for a family who cares, hope for my dreams to come true. And before I had the time to change my mind, I say,
"Ok, Guess they will have to make room for another crazy Aussie!"
As the boys cheer and start to get everything organized I can help but think,
Well, here I come America, hope your ready for this train wreck!
