章節 140: Chapter 2.61
"So, Will, if they ask you two attend and testify in court, would you be able to do that. It would help with the case."
I nodded, "it'll be hard, especially with him in the room, but yeah. I'll do it."
"Is it necessary?"
I looked to Alex in surprise. Why would he care?
"It might be."
Alex sighed as he moved his gaze to Elijah, "he will be very busy starting tomorrow. He won't have time."
"Busy?" Asher asked with worry as he looked to me.
"He will begin testing and experiments to try to cure destined partnership."
"Experiments? You make him sound like a test rat."
Alex stared down Hunter through the screen, "well he is."
"EXCUSE ME?!" Hunter growled as he stood up.
"Hunt!" I insisted, causing everyone to stop and look to me. "He is experimenting on himself too. He's just moronic when it comes to words."
Zara and Trey looked to me in shock, "he's right." Trey sighed, "our brother also has a destined partner. He has been experimenting on himself for years. He actually has a contract with a university for his experiment. I promise, Will will be taken care of and not harmed."
"Hopefully."
I smacked Alex's arm and he looked to me in shock, "I will be fine, guys."
Asher sighed, "we were thinking that it may be helpful for us to come and help you out. I could move out there and..."
I cleared my throat, "Ash, no. I appreciate your concern but I need time. I need to relearn how to stand on my own two feet and determine what I want from my life. Maybe in the future, but right now, I need time to heal."
He smiled sadly, "I understand, but we want you to contact us every day. We're worried."
Zara smiled towards me, "you really have some amazing friends."
I nodded, "I'm lucky."
"Well, I think it would be good to let everyone rest. Its been quite a hard day for all of you. And Will also has to prepare for the kids beginning their new schools tomorrow."
"Alright, well keep us updated on how it goes."
"I will."
"Later," Zara said before hanging up the call. She sat back down and looked to me sweetly. "I'll help you get the twins to school and Addie to daycare."
"I'll go and help the teens with setting up at their new school." Trey smiled, "we're lucky that Wren will be a familiar face for the twins at school and the teens will have Iris."
"When that's done, we're going to the lab."
I stood, "sounds good. 'Night." I left the living room and went to my bedroom.
I struggled to get to sleep, but listening to Addie's quiet breathing finally did the trick. I continually woke up from nightmares of the past, making it so I barely got any rest.
In the morning, I got Addie ready before going and checking on the twins. When I came into their room, they smiled my way before rushing over to me. "Look at my new dress!" Ashley sang as her smile broadened. The mid-calf length navy dress with sunflowers on it made her look like an actually kid her age, unlike the uniform they used to wear. I was startled in shock as Archer rushed over, grabbed the bottom of Ashley's dress, and threw it over her head.
"It even has shorts!" He said with excitement as I saw the navy shorts attached to the inside of the dress.
Ashley fixed the dress into its rightful place as Archer put his hands on his hips. He puffed out his chest, making a pose like he was a super hero.
"Trey got me this shirt with a great white shark on it!"
I laughed as I felt some of my stress melt away, "you both look awesome. I know you're going to impress your new classmates."
Ashley rushed over and took Addie from me before letting out a giggly squeal, "you look so cute!"
I looked over as Wren came in and huffed with pride as she crossed her arms and presented a large smirk. "I picked it out! The pink and blue striped dress is my favorite."
"Food's ready!" I followed the kids as they rushed out of the room and to the kitchen. "Mornin'."
I nodded to Trey, "smells good."
He smirked, "glad to hear it." He handed me a plate of food and I sat at their large table between the twins, since they scooted apart and gestured for me. I smiled to Zara as she put one of Addie's bottles and a cup of coffee in front of me. She sat beside Wren, across from us.
"I had a feeling you'd like that dress," Zara said as she looked to Iris when she sat on the open spot next to her. "Iris picked out that one."
Ashley perked up and looked to Iris, "I love it! Sunflowers are my favorite flower." She smiled sweetly, "thanks for getting it for me."
Iris blushed slightly as she looked down to her plate. "I'm glad."
"Iris and Sam also picked out your shirts." Wren said as she looked to Chase and Emit, who sat beside Ashley. The spot beside Archer was filled as Trey came over.
"Sam?" Chase asked asked as he looked to Iris. She was bright red on her entire face and ears.
"Sam is Iris' girlfriend." Zara said with a smile, "she is also going to help you guys around the high school."
"That tomboy needs to mark you already."
Iris glared at Alex when he sat down beside her, "we want to take our time."
I tossed a grape, making Alex jump slightly as it hit his plate. I couldn't fight a smile at his angry gaze that shot to me. "They need to wait until they're ready. It shows how mature they are."
"Are you marked yet, Chase?"
Chase blushed slightly as Emit kissed his cheek, "not yet. We plan to, but promised Will we would wait until we both were really sure."
I smiled to them before smiling to Iris as she looked to me with surprise, "I didn't find the right one until way after high school."
"You're destined partner took his time."
I frowned towards him, "I didn't say it was him. I said the right one, not the forced one."
"Its that Asher guy, right?"
I paused and felt the twins and boys waiting for my response. There's no point in lying, "yeah, its him."
"So, if the experiments are successful, you're going to be with him?"
I shook my head towards Zara and felt everyone looked to me with surprise, "probably not. I want him to find the right one for him. I don't think its me."
After a moment of silence, Trey cleared his throat. "Finish quickly kids. We all need to leave in 5 minutes."

K_B_Bloom Hi all! I wanted to let y'all know that things will be changing with my work. Don't worry, I'm NOT stopping this story! I've prided myself on posting a chapter daily, but I've been receiving a LOT of negative comments that are finally getting to me.
I will be posting as frequently as I can, but it will not be daily. I have a few other stories I have neglected and have a lot of editing I have not had time to do. Sorry for disappointing, but I hope this change will be resolved soon.
