Ellie was so nervous about telling her brother about Chace, she knew he told everyone else, and she knew that Chace was going to be really mad at her, she was hoping he wasn't going to come around, when he was here she pretended to be asleep.
John was home watching Ellie, while their parents worker and everyone else was at school or work. It was around four o'clock and Chace came down the driveway. Ellie got up on her crutches. She really wasn't suppose to be walking around, but John was upstairs so he wouldn't know. She hobbled over to the window, it was Chace and in the passenger seat was a girl. The girl she assumed was the girl he was dating and living with. She hobbled back to the couch fast, but not with out loosing her balance and falling, her crutches went flying one hit Tucker who yelped and the other one knocked over a lamp. Ellie cringed.
John heard the commotion and came running down the stairs, just as Chace walked in the door.
"John!" yelled Ellie.
Chace took the girl's hand and followed John.
"Ellie" said John as he ran to her.
"What did I say about walking around" asked John.
"Sorry" she said as John picked her up and moved her to the couch.
"You okay?" he asked.
"Ya I'm fine" she said.
"Lets keep you leg elavated" said John putting pillows under her leg. He then picked up the lamp.
"Is Chace in here yet?" asked Ellie concerned.
"Ya I'm right here" said Chace.
Ellie gulped.
"Hi" she said.
"Hi sunshine" said Chace.
John turned around.
"So we finally get to meet the "secret girlfriend" said John.
Chace shot him a look. Ellie hid her face behind a pillow and sunk down in the couch.
"Ellie?" questioned Chace.
"I'm asleep" said Ellie.
"Ellie?" questioned Chace again.
"I'm sorry" said Ellie, "TJ wouldn't stop bothering me, he pushing me on the swing and said he wasn't going to take me inside, unless I told him. I'm so sorry."
Chace calmed himself.
"No its fine" said Chace, "Not your fault, I shouldn't have to told you all this."
"Well anyways this is Annie" said Chace.
"Hi" said Annie.
John went to shake her hand "I'm John."
"Hi" said Ellie.
"And you must be the famous Ellie" said Annie with a big smile
Ellie smiled back.
TJ walked in the door.
"Ellie do me a favor keep Annie company while I talk to John and TJ" said Chace giving John a glare.
"Na I'm good" said John.
Chace grabbed him by the shirt.
They went towards the door, where TJ was. When TJ saw Chace and his look. He got a little scared.
"TJ what the hell's the matter with?" asked Chace.
"What?" asked TJ.
"You forced the secret out of Ellie" said Chace.
"So what" said TJ.
"I'm mad about that but not as mad about the fact that you told everyone else" said Chace.
"Why is it such a big deal" yelled TJ.
"Keep you voice down" said Chace, John tried to walk away, "Your not going anywhere." Chace grab his shirt.
"Why would you tell a twelve year old that anyways" said TJ.
"Because I needed to tell someone and she is the only one that can keep a secret obviously" said Chace.
"She obviously can not" said TJ.
"Only because you threatened her" said Chace.
"Your over reacting" said TJ.
"I am not, and I'm done here, just come say hello and thats it, thats it" said Chace.
"Ya, ya I got it" said TJ.
"And apologize to Ellie" said Chace.
"Why?" questioned TJ.
"Because that was mean" said Chace.
"It was mean" said John.
"Thanks John, but doesn't mean I'm any less mad at you" said Chace.
"Look I didn't know you didn't want everyone to know, all I know is you clearly didn't want mom and dad to know" said John.
"Fine whatever" said Chace.
They headed into the living room mad at each other.
Ellie and Annie were laughing.
"Hi" said Annie, "She was just telling me about you telling her our little secret and everyone finding out and some other funny stories."
"Of course she was" said Chace.
"Hi I'm TJ" said TJ.
"Hi its nice to me you" said Annie shaking his hand.
"Come on Annie I want to show you around before my parents get here" said Chace.
Annie got up and her and Chace left.
TJ kneeled down next to Ellie.
Ellie rolled over.
"Ellie look I'm sorry I should have never tried to get that out you" said TJ, "It was wrong."
"I'm sorry I got you in trouble" said Ellie.
"No I deserve it" said TJ.
Ellie gave him a hug.
"Now get some rest" said TJ he kissed her forehead.
TJ, John, Jesse, and Will were watching TV, Luke was studying and TV, Chace and Annie were in the kitchen making pizza. The parents then walked in. Ellie rolled over.
"I'm asleep" said Ellie.
They all laughed.

"Me to" said TJ.
They all got up and left.
"Hey where are you all going?" asked Nancy.
No one responded.
"Where's Ellie?" asked Edward.
"Asleep" said John.
When they walked in the kitchen, they both almost fainted.
"Hi" said Nancy.
"Mom, dad this is Annie" said Chace.
"Hi dear" said Nancy.
"Hello" said Edward.
Chace then won't on to tell them everything.
