I must had fallen asleep sometime during the drive, because the next thing know is Derek lightly shacking my shoulder telling me that we had stopped for the night. I looked up at his face and smiled. Still don't know how I got so lucky.
"Derek? Where are we?" I looked out the open side door. I was dark but not pitch black. I didn't know if it was early morning or late night, not like I really cared.
"We're still in Pennsylvania, but we are a long ways away from where we were…Dads been driving day. Its what….10:47 right now. You have been sleeping the whole time pretty much." He chuckled and kissed my nose.
"Awwee, aint this sweet? Get a room you two." And that could be the one and only Victoria Enright.
"We will as soon as we get outa the van," I said without completely realizing it. When I did im sure I was doing my tomato impression…again.
"Well just keep it down then, cuz I really don't need to hear it," she winked at me and I blushed harder, if that's possible.
I could hear Simon and Kit talking outside the van. I could distinctly hear what they were saying but I knew it was them. I saw Aunt Lauren walk around the van to the back door. Derek moved us gently out of the way just as the door opened and my aunts head popped in to grab the stuff that we would need for night.
I jumped from Derek's grasp and grabbed my bag, then jumped out the back door so I could help bring it into the hotel.
I held Tori, Simons, and my bags while they carried in the cooler. I got my first real look at the hotel. It was better than the motel we had stayed at, but not as good as a 3 star.
We got to the front desk and checked in. We had 2 rooms again ( sad face) but there was a room joining the two (YAY!) that me and Derek would share seeing there was only one bed in each room.
When we got to the rooms, I went into the one where Tori and Aunt lauren would be sharing, plopped Tori's seemingly heavy bag down, went through the joint room, plopped mine on the couch, then went to Simon and Kits room with Smons bag.
"Thanks Chloe," he said with a smile. Kit walked up behind me and Simons face fell, not enough for kit to notic, but enough that I did.
"No problem Simon. Hey you wanna help me with my stuff? That rooms pretty small so I don't know where to put it," I tried to keep it light. I needed to talk to him, but I knew that if we tried to in hear he would be very reluctant to tell me anything.
"Ummm, Sure?" he followed me to the middle room and closed the door behind him.
"Simon…what's wrong? You haven't been yourself since last night, or this morning, or…whatever you know what I mean. What happened?" I sat down on the couch next to my bag. I noticed that Derek's bag was on the floor across the room. Where was he? No back on topic. I had t figure out what was bugging Simon.
"Well, its nothing really. Just…." When he saw my face he trailed off. He knew I knew there was something going on. " Fine. Chloe…I don't think I can trust my dad anymore. He lied to me about so many things! He never told me that I had a sister, and I ALWAYS wanted one! He knew my mom was going to die and he just failed to mention that to me or Derek! He didn't even tell Derek that his strength may increase to accede normal werewolf's, and that I may or may not have side effects because of his fucking group of Scientists! I just feel like he has been lying to me my whole life! When I found out that Tori was my half-sister I was overjoyed, then I remembered that why I hadn't known I had a sister…because of my sneaky fucking father!" He was crying full out by the end. He was sitting next to me so I pulled him into a tight hug just as I had the morning before. Wow, was it really just this morning that we had done this? It had been less then 24 hours ago that my friends that are like family to me found out that they were family. That we had to run from our 'safe spot' because of something that smelt like me was chasseing us. That me and Derek had finally gotten a step ahead with our relationship.

I walked up behind Chloe and was looking at Simon. I was going to talk to him about what had happened today. But as I neared them Simons face fell ever-so slightly, but enough for me to notice. He looked at Chloe again. She said something about him helping her with her stuff, and they left. The door closed softly, then silence.
I walked up to the door slowly, incase Derek was in there and was listing for movement, and pressed my ear to the door. What I heard, I don't even know what it did to me but I was frozen. 'He lied to me about so many things! He never told me that I had a sister, and I ALWAYS wanted one! He knew my mom was going to die and he just failed to mention that to me or Derek! He didn't even tell Derek that his strength may increase to accede normal werewolf's, and that I may or may not have side effects because of his fucking group of Scientists! I just feel like he has been lying to me my whole life! When I found out that Tori was my half-sister I was overjoyed, then I remembered that why I hadn't known I had a sister…because of my sneaky fucking father!'
Did he really think that of me? How did he even find out about Tori? Did he really think he couldn't trust me? God! I must be the worlds worst father! I had lied to my boys but it was to keep them safe. I did it so they wouldn't worry about there mother. So they wouldn't worry about there half-sister. I did it out for their benefit…or so I thought. It turns out it all backfired on me…as (anyone know what Simons moms name is?) my wife always said it would. I loved my boys, I really did. But if they thought they couldn't trust me then that was up to them, and I would have to deal with the consequences that I had caused.

I was still crying into Chloe's shoulder when Derek walked in with a bag of chips and pop in his hands. He only had to look at us once before he dropped his stuff and came over to us. He moved Chloe's suitcase and sat on her other side and wrapped his arm around her and me. I looked up at Chloe to see that she was crying to. Wth? Why was she crying?
"Chloe?*Sniff* Why are you crying? Did I *sniff* do something?" I pulled away from her shoulder, but she just tightened the hug, and Derek gripped my shoulder and pulled me back into the group hug.
"No Simon. You didn't do anything at all. You know me, emotional wreck." She laughed, but it didn't reach her eyes. She was sad for me? Or was she just saying that? " I was thinking of my mom and dad after you were done talking…they did they same thing. Mom never told me about the supernatural and never told dad. Dad never told me…well anything really. And I…j-just reall-ly miss t-th-them." She was balling know. Derek and I both held her closer, which caused us to smack our heads together, but neither of us really cared, we just wanted to help Chloe. Derek had a reason though. They were together. And me…I was just the stupid little brother crushing on his brothers girl. Yay…that made me feel good about myself.
