X's POV

After Natalie an me cuddled an then we left, we got our stuff for class, after class was over, I walked her to her next class, "I will see you after class!" she giggled I smiled an we went our separate ways. "X what was that all about?" Speed asked, "What nothing!" he stared at me, "I'll tell you later.","What's going on!?" Connor asked an sat behind, "Fine it will soon be around campus anyway, I asked Natalie to be my girlfriend, she is different I mean way different then Annalise, I couldn't ask anyone because everyone says Annalise an me should be together.", Connor almost fell out of his seat, Speed's mouth fell to the floor, "Are you trying to get Annalise jealous, or have her think of something or worse the twins maybe her dad have something done to her maybe a prank.", I thought it over, "What would her dad do, the twins are scared of me an Annalise her pranks are useless, unless she tells her dad to do something for her but she broke up with me, we both still like each other but nothing serious.","Alright class pass your homework to the front then I will pass out your final grades the test you took yesterday will not be on there. X an Speed Racer your uncle wants to see both of you!"

Normal POV

I was in Headmasters office, "Natalie you may go in now!" I nodded an went in, "Natalie nice to see you, please sit."," I'm I in trouble.","No but there is questions I want to ask you,(I nodded) Natalie hows your home life?","Its fine.","Natalie please, this morning we got a call that your home caught fire an that was do to drugs, but your parents passed away, I'm I right", I nodded an said "Five years ago, Will my brother an me lived with are aunt but she's a heavy drinker, an yells a lot. The only reason I came here was that I know a thing or too about cars even though I'm not a driver plus to get away from there. What's going to happen now!" I started to cry if he says I have to go back to my Aunts house I'll run away, he signaled for someone to come in, "What's going on unc!", I heard a voice ask, I turned, "X","Natalie,what's going on!","Family troubles, but anyway Natalie since of what has happened would you like to stay at my house with are family for Thanksgiving!" I looked towards X an Speed, "What's going to happen what about Will, my aunt!","Your brother will be in jail quite a long time, your aunt might go to jail for having him sell an smoke it at her house, we are trying to contact your Aunt to ask for information, but haven't gotten through so I called the police an they said you two are order of the court, til your Aunt found you guys, but if that is the case after you are done here you will be in foster.", X was holding me an trying to calm me down, Speed was sitting on the couch in shock cause he was a foster child but now he has a family, "While since you don't have anyplace to go, would you like to spend thanksgiving with us?", I nodded an I wiped my tears with my jacket.

The next day

"This is going to be exciting, while at least you get to meet my family!", I looked over at X he was playing some game I had, lucky I stole the xbox from my brother before I left, "Yea but won't it be weird that your girlfriend is eating an staying with your family?" I sat down next to him, "No not really, if they do then we will tell them you have family issues an that Spritle wanted you to be closer to the campus. Anyway let me tell you who is all coming, (I nodded) Speed, Spritle, me, dad maybe and my grandparents." I nodded an rested my head on his shoulder. "Hey you two ready?" Speed popped his head in an said, "Yea hold on let me get some stuff from my bathroom!" X nodded an left with his brother.

"Alright everyone buckle up?" Headmaster Spritle said, after I got into the car, Speed an Spritle were up front, me an X were in the back, "It's weird to be in the back, now I kind of know how Speed feels in the back of me on the track." I laughed, "Yea, it is not like you haven't see the back of the mach 6 before!" X ignored his little brother.

After about an hour later we came to a house no wait more like a mansion."OMG, I have never seen anything bigger than my own house since that one time my dad took me to one of his clients houses?","What did your dad do for a living?" Speed asked, "Speed!" Spritle yelled, I laughed, "It's fine headmaster, my dad was a homeowner, an he own or my family own a lot of houses, my mom also sold houses but not a lot she manly did the look of the home to make it look nice, one time my dad an me talked to some really rich person, he had a two sons but I only saw the one, his wife was somewhere but he seemed nice." Speed nodded an we started walking inside, "What about our bags?" I said, "Someone will get those for us!" X said.

After we walked through the door the house was huge, "Welcome home I guess?" someone yelled from down the hall, "Dad?!" said X, I looked at X's face he seemed worried, someone finally walked down the hall, "Speed, I didn't know you were coming?","Yea, I missed my boys!" I looked up to see the legendary Speed Racer Sr. he was everything like I saw on tv, "Awww, Spritle you didn't tell your own mother that she has a granddaughter?" I looked around an saw a woman an a man in there 60's or older walking down the hall, there was too many people in this house, I didn't think so I took off running from the Racer house. "Natalie... Natalie, where you going, STOP,", I did, I turned around an said "No X, sorry I can't stay here, I might do something wrong, there's your dad then some people that could be my grandparents, what will happen when the rest of your family..." I felt X's lips on mine to shut me up, we pulled away. "Natalie, I don't want you to leave, an my grandparents are loco so don't mind them all of us do, the rest of the family is going to love you like I do so don't worry." I slowly breathed, "Wait, your dad. I thought you said he wasn't coming!","We all thought that but I guess he missed us so yea." he kissed my forehead an laced his fingers with mine an walked back to the house.

"Grandpops, this is my girlfriend from school Natalie," I smiled at him, "Nice to meet you, X an Speed's grandfather." he laughed an said "Please just call me Pops everyone does, an Natalie this is my wife Speed an Spritle's mom plus the boys grandma, Mama Racer.","Hello Mrs. Racer," she smiled, "No one has called me that since that last interview with Speed, just call me Mama R." I smiled, they were so nice, "Do my eyes need to be changed or is those my two favorite nephews." I turned around to see a guy that looked like Speed Sr. my guess was Racer X the guys uncle Rex, my brother was all about him when Racer X an Speed Sr. use to race. "Rex, long time since we seen you!" Spritle said, Rex walked toward X an me I could tell he was drunk cause I seen Will an his friends plenty of times, X had his arms around my waist "Yea I watched you on TV a couple days ago or was it yesterday I don't know, but who is this pretty young thing?" X pulled me closer to him, "Natalie, my girlfriend Uncle Rex.","Oh, while don't hold her to yourself, let me see her!","No uncle Rex, you're drunk maybe you should go sleep it off awhile!" Rex looked pissed he grabbed X's arm pulled him away from me an he grabbed me, it reminded me of when I was left alone with Will's friends when they use to raped me, "PLEASE, DON'T DO ANYTHING!" I yelled out crying, "Rex, let go of Natalie, an go home," Pop's yelled at his son, he didn't let go only hold tighter I cried harder, X grabbed his uncle's arm an tried to pull it away but failed, "Uncle Rex, let go of Natalie NOW!" X yelled, but didn't listen, "Thats it!" Speed Sr. an Spritle said at the same time, Speed Sr. grabbed his brothers arms an pried it away from my arm, X took my other arm an pulled me away an close to him, Spritle took the other arm an lend him down a hall to a room an placed him there an locked it. "Natalie, are you alright did his grip hurt you?" X asked once his dad an uncle came back, I was still crying my head was on his chest, "I'm fine but scared it brought back memories like I told you." he knew an kept on hugging me an rubbing his hand on my back to calm me down.

LATER ON THAT NIGHT...

X an I where in the kitchen with his grandma, "X sweetie I know you are protecting her but Rex has been sleeping for two almost three now can I speak to her alone, just us girls." he seemed worried but I placed a hand on his arm, he kissed my forehead an left to the living room, "Now, we are alone (Mama R laughed) tell me about yourself?","While there is not much, my parents died when I was ten so me an my brother Will went into foster care but are Aunt on my dad's side found us so we lived with her, but I never liked it, my brother now is in jail for doing something that he shouldn't have done so now after I get done at the academy I have to go back into foster care." a single tear rolled down, "Sweet pea, your life is like a car doing 360's not on purpose," I laughed a little cause that is what you get when you tell your life an get a reason like that from a racer mom, "While I hope you get into a nice family." I smiled I hope I do, "While Sweet pea, what should we make for dinner?" I got out of my seat an started looking around. "I am up for anything, should I or we ask the others?" I ask, "While we could but they would say the same thing you just said up for anything. How about we could make french bread pizza, I could cut the bread into good size pieces, an you can cut up an put the stuff for pizzas into bowls or plates!" I nodded an got to work. About an hour later Speed Sr. came in an said "Mom, pops wants to know what an when dinner is ready?" Mama Racer walked out of the room, I heard her say "Pops Racer, when I say dinner is ready, it's ready alright!" I laughed "Is it always like this?" I ask him, he shooked his head no "Only when his hungry, Natalie I have a question for you?" I looked up from putting pepproni in a bowl, "I heard you from inside the house earlier that your dad was a relator, what was your dad's name?","Well my dad's realtor business name was Homes from the Holidays, his name was Nelson Holiday." he nodded then went digging through a drawer, "Was this your dad!" he showed me a flyer, "Yea, this was one of the flyers my mom designed for the business." I started to cry, "Speed what did you do to her?" Mama R said coming in, "Nothing, X, Speed get in here!", when they came in "Yea dad what is it!" he showed them the flyer, "This is Natalie's dad, I heard her talk about him showing someone a house like this one, I remember looking at this house for are family before Speed Jr. came, Nelson had his daughter with him an I had X with me to look here, Natalie no wonder you look familiar, you an X were inseparable when you two met (I looked at X, he wrapped his arms around me), I promised your dad that X an you would be hanging out together that next weekend, but I had to get away for a while." I looked up at X an then at his dad, I got out of X's arms an left the room. I slammed the door to my room, tears in my eyes, I remember that day X was cute even then, what was strange was that Speed Sr. an dad left that same week, but what happened to dad they found a body but they said it belonged to him. 'Knock, Knock' "Natalie are you alright, you seemed upset after I talked to you?" I walked over to the door an opened it, "Mr. Racer, I know you went into hiding a couple days after you bought this house, but my dad left that same week to show a house somewhere in Cali but he never came back, he got into a wreck but they found a body not him, but then some people came to talk to my mom but when my brother an me came back she was dead, I just was thinking, but do you know what happened?" he had his head down, he then looked up at me with tears coming down, "Natalie your parents dead cause of me, the realtor job was just a cover up, your dad worked for me he was apart of my pit crew him an Sparky has you knew him, he met your mom at the track an so she helped the boys mom Trixie after some people knew about the gasless engine they wanted it gone an destroyed, but the only people that actually knew where me, Trixie, my parents, Spritle an your parents, the real reason your dad left was that he was getting a house so that everyone can leave together just friends, but after I heard that your dad passed but the people that did it didn't leave anything behind. I am sorry. But your dad did say that me an Trixie would be your god parents an so is your brother but after what Spritle told me, his in jail so just you." I looked up at him an smiled, "What will happen now?" I ask "While since what has happened you are now apart of my family but not related, so if you are wondering X an you can still date.","Thanks Speed Sr." he have me a hug, "Hey time for dinner?" Spritle said with his head peeking in, "Spritle I told her what me an you discussed earlier." he nodded "Natalie you are now apart of this family now, you are my god-niece like I told the guys I cannot bended the rules or favors, so don't ask. An welcome to the family!" I must of been smiling from ear to ear, we walked down to the kitchen, I sat next to X.
