Shelby's p.o.v
Skylynn answered her door.
"Hey kids what are you doing here? Did I leave something at the party?" She asked
"No, umm we wanted someone to talk too." Jake said
"Oh! Come in! Come in!" She said opening the door wider
We walked in and sat on her couch.
"So, what's up?" She asked
"We found out that our dad isn't our real.. Dad!" I said tearing up again
"Oh, did you umm did your mom tell you?" She asked
"No, we found a video." Jake said
"Guys, does your mom know your here?"
I shook my head no.
She sighed "don't be mad at your mom, Jacob is the one who said to wait awhile." She said patting my back
"I grew up being lied to my whole life!" I yelled
"What's going on?" Daniel, sky's boyfriend
"The kids found out about.... Jacob." She said
"Oh." He said scratching his neck
"Kids I think you need to go talk to your mom and dad." She said
"HE IS NOT MY DAD!" I yelled
"Then who is?" Sky asked clearly annoyed
"The man you saw on the computer screen?!" She asked throwing her hands up
"Well, yea!" I said
"Is he the one who raised you your whole life?" She asked
"No..." Jake and I said
"Who is?"
"Dad- I mean taylor!" I said
"Dad." Jake said at the same time
"I think jakes following!" Daniel said
"Well, know one asked you!" I snapped
"Excuse me! Don't speak to him like that! Remember you came for MY help!" Skylynn said pointing her finger at me
"Whatever!" I said moving her finger and standing up to leave
"Shelby stop!" Jake said
"No! stay here with THEM! I'm leaving!" I said slamming the door
I ran out of there drive way. I heard jake screaming but I kept running. I ran and ran and ran. I made it to the park and sat on a bench. I held my face and started crying.
"I've been lied too my whole life and no one can understand that!" I said to myself
"I can." A boy said
I jumped and turned around. There was a boy who looked about my age with  brown hair and blue eyes. He looked like someone familiar but I couldn't put my finger on it.
"I'm Alex!" He said sticking out his hand
"Shelby!" I said shaking it
"So, what are you doing here?"
"I just found out I was lied to my whole life!" I said running my hand through my hair
"Santa clause?" He asked
"No." I giggled
"And that still doesn't answer my question." He said smiling showing his perfectly straight teeth
"I just ran away from it all." I said
He nodded
"So, why are you here?" I asked
"Turns out my dad's not dead." He said putting his head down
"That's crazy, cause I just found out mine is!" I said
"No kidding!" He said
"We should head back to our houses." He said after awhile
I nodded "I'm dreading it!" I said standing up
"Me too!" He said as his eyes got wide
"Well, nice meeting you!" I said
"You too, hey give me your number and we can talk!" He said
I smiled and he handed me his phone. I typed in my number and handed it back.
"Bye!" I said
He repeated me and we walk separate ways. He was cute, wait what am I saying I have a boyfriend! I walked back home. After about 10 minuets I was walking up to my door. I got my key from under the flower pot and opened the door. My mom and da- Taylor were sitting on the couch. My mom was tapping her foot.
"WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN!" "He" said standing up
"Nowhere!" I said walking upstairs
"Come down here now!" My mom yelled
"What!" I snapped
"Sit down!" She said pointing to the couch
I rolled my eyes and sat down.
"Now, where were you?!" Taylor said
"Why should I tell you!"
"Because I'm your father!" He yelled
"No your not!" I yelled back
"So those 13 years I raised you means nothing!" He snapped
I didn't know what to say. I rolled my eyes again.
"Shelby he is your dad! I'm sorry that you never met your biological father, but you should be thankful that Taylor treated you like he did! Some kids don't even have a 2 adults to take care of them! I didn't and you know how hard that was!" My mom yelled
"I mean we are basically the same! I have one biologically parent and so did you!" I yelled running to my room
"Shelby Elizabeth Caniff! Get down here right now!" She yelled
"It's whitesides!" I hollered back slamming my door
I locked it then put a chair under the door knob. I went and sat on my bed and cried. I laid down and sobbed. Soon sleep took over.
