So hope you guys liked the last chapter, im just getting started so just wait for all the twists and turns in the plot. Read and Review if your liking it guys! dont own anything except bently!
Bently's POV-
Mr Elm walked over to me, smile on face, hand outstretched.
"Bently! i see you made the trip okay my dear?" i gave a shrug.
"I get motion sickness sometimes so it wasnt that great," i kicked a pebble with my shoe.
"Ah i have a feeling that your a bit anxious about todays meeting," I shrugged again and he just smiled in answer.
"Your bags have already been brought inside and taken to your room, would you like a tour before lunch? i expect you'll want to change or relax before your brothers come to see you," I just looked up at him again and sighed.
"Yeah i guess so, whats there even to do around here?" his eyes lit up.
"Anything that you set your wildest dreams to, its here and yours for the taking," he said sweeping his hand around the house and its grounds, for the first time that day i smiled.
"I think I'll just take the directions to my room first,"
"I can do that," he smiled in response.
We entered the beautifully decorated mansion, it looked old on the outside but inside it was all brand new and had a modern design to it, everything also smelled new, like no one had lived there yet, and i doubt they had by the looks of things.
We walked through a entry way and came to a set of glass plated stairs to the right of the entryway, taking them two at a time i made it to the top before Mr Elm, i walked through what looked to be a loungeroom and stopped when i got to a hallway that branched off, i waited for Mr Elm to catch up.
"Yours is the one at the end," he said poiting to the double doors.
I ran to it excited to see what it would look like, when i opened the doors i got quite a shock, it was extravagant and huge, although it lacked in decorations.
My boxes of possesions were littered around the floor in piles and i walked around them as i marvelled the vast room, the walls behind the huge queensized bed were black with silver spiral design on them.
There was a huge black framed antique mirror above the head rest of the bed and two silver and black lamps sitting on matching bedside tables beside the bed, i looked at the room for a second, finally nodding in acceptance, i liked it.
Mr Elm cleared his throat from behind me.
"Lunch is in an hour Bently, I'll come and get you when it is if you'd like?" I was barley paying attention as i mumbled yeah okay, nodding.
I decided id use the hour to unpack some of my possesions and before long my room was finished, I was just about to sit down on my newley made bed when there was a knock at the door before it opend to reveal Mr Elm again.
He smiled warmley at me, before a frown appeard on his face.
"They will be a little later then expected, your lunch is waiting downstairs, they'll be here by around 3 oclock," I sighed, What had i honestly been expecting, I swallowed hard the knot that was forming in my throat that had made me feel uneasy this whole time and shook my head.
"Alright then, well i guess i'll have lunch and venture around the property," i rolled onto my stomach about to slide off the bed when I heard a crinkle of paper underneath me, I sat up quicly and removed James' still unopened letter.
I looked at it as Mr Elm stood waiting for me, i looked up at him after I had looked at the letter again.
"You know he loved you very much Bently," he smiled sadley.
"Mmm I'm sure," I said before tossing it onto the bedside table and finally getting up and following the old man downstairs.
After half an hour of having lunch with him, as id asked him to keep me company, he suggested i venture around the property on one of the horses the stable out the back kept.
I pondered it for a second, I liked horses, they were intelligent and rather smart animals, I smiled and agreed with his idea.
Before long i was on the back of one of the sleak shiny mares, riding through the back woods at first at a slow pace and then up to a canter, before long i became slightly lost and swore.
I decided id head back the way I'd come but not making any success, i soon became worried so i stopped the horse and listend to the woods seeing if there were any sounds i could distinguish from the usual nature calls.
After a couple of moments i heard a car buzz past on a nearby road, so i galloped as fast as possible towards the road before the car became out of earshot and i wouldnt find the road.
The road came up all to soon and i had trouble slowing the horse before we reached it, i panicked as it became scared and ran out onto the road, there was already 3 cars speeding down the road from one direction, but it was still a car.
I became scared and almost burst into tears as i tried steering the horse back to the side of the road, the 2 back cars became aware that they were coming up to a horse on the road but one still hadnt slowed.
Finally the horse moved to one side of the road away from the cars, but as soon as one had sped passed, it bucked in panick.
I cried out as i grasped at the ranes to hold on, my grip slipping and limbs flailing everywhere, i slid down the saddle falling backwards and hit the road with a thump of pain, after that everything seemed to go black.
Calebs POV-
Damon was playing with my stereo controls again trying to find something decent to listen to, I was getting distracted by all his bitching and moaning about nothing good to listen to, i was already nervous, i didnt need this to.
"Damon stop it already! Your distracting me, i cant drive when your whining in my ear," I gave him a stern look.
"Whatever brother, maybe you should just learn to drive better then hey?" he smirked.
"Oh smartass," I laughed back, I turned back to the road just in time to see a horse stumble into the middle of the road and the rider fall off, i swerved just in time to miss the unfortunete person, breaking hard as i did.
I swore loudley and hit the steering wheel, glancing to damon beside me.
"See what your distracting did," I said yelling at him before quickly getting out of the car and running over to the injured rider and her horse.
She was laying half on the road half off the road, she was very small, i however thought it was odd that i didnt recognise her from school.
"Dude you totally killed her," Reid said standing over her, trying to sus out wether she was still breathing.
"Shut up Reid!," i growled in response as i tried to check if she was okay, she was little and had long black hair with olive skin and a sprinkle of freakles across her face, she looked familiar bad i had no idea why.
I unbuckled her helment and pulled it away from her head, slowly seeing a large gash gushing with blood coming from her hairline.
"Shit," I swore, this was all my fault, just cause i wasnt paying attention to the road, this wasnt like me at all.
I quickly picked her up and ran over to my car yelling at damon to open the back door to put her in, while pouge and tyler tried to wrangle the horse back and clam it down, as soon as Pouge got a hold of the lead though he yelled over to be as i slammed that back door and went to climb into the drivers seat.
"Caleb, This horse, its one of yours man, She must be one of the staff from your estate just a couple miles up," I paused for a second, a Danvers estate horse, what would one of the staff be doing riding one of our prize wining horses?
"Okay man, you head back to the estate with it and see if Mr Elms is around, ask him who's horse it is and tell them we're guna be a little later still," Pouge nodded as i shook my head, quickly trying to get my mind back onto the current situation jumping into the drivers seat speeding away from the scene as i did so.
Bently's POV-
I blinked my eyes open, sun shinning into them, i sheilded my eyes as i groaned and rolled over automatically searching for my phone.
A throbbing pain was sent up through my head as i tried to sit up.
I grabbed at my head quickly, hissing in pain as my hand came into contact some sort of wound, i groaned and layed back down, then it all came flashing back.
The cars, The horse and The road, wow good start to Ipswich or what.
I looked around, i was back in my new bedroom, laying under the covers.
I heard my door quietly opened and quicky shuffling of feet, i rolled over to find Mr Elm walking to my side followed by a tall brunette boy with ridiculous blue eyes, he had a concered if not angry look on his face.
"Ah your finally awake my dear, you had quite the accident," he said quickly examining my head, i groaned again as he felt around the now stitched up wound.
"Yeah, figures, the damn horse got spooked and wouldnt get off the road," i said slowly trying to sit up.
"Mmm, maybe we shouldve stuck you on a different horse," he said in concentration still examining my head before finishing up and smiling down at me.
"That horse shouldnt be taken out full stop, father should have had him put down the last time he pulled this stunt with a rider on him," The tall boy that had remained quite spoke up.
"Oh no really, it was my fault, not the horses, please dont do anything to it," i looked up at him scared.
"We arent going to do anything to it, i promise Bently, are we Caleb?" he questioned the boy, and then it all clicked.
"C-Caleb? as in Caleb Danvers, Caleb?" the boy had a sympathetic smile on his face.
"That would be me and your Bently, Sorry about almost running you over with my car," he half chuckled half frowned.
I just sat there stunned in silence, i didnt have a clue what to say, my mouth hanging open, after seeing Mr Elms hopefull expression i quickly closed it and nodded my head.
"Yes, i mean its alright. Umm hi?" I looked up at him again, just staring at him for a minute.
"She sure is an odd one isnt she Mr Elm," Caleb laughed as he watch me gawk at him.
"Runs in the family my boy," The old man said smiling down at me again.
"Why dont i leave you two to get aquainted and I'll go tell the others that she's alright," Caleb nodded.
"Others?" I questioned quickly.
"All in good time Bently, but for now, get to know your brother," He winked before slipping out my bedroom door.
