Ch 6
I See You in My Dreams
"Kate Sanders."
"Very funny. Really. Who is it?"
"I wasn't kidding."
"Oh my fuckin' God! You're really serious! How the hell did you find out?"
"The adoption agency just told me last week. I had to wait for the perfect time to tell you. Please don't be mad at me."
"I'm more hurt. Who was her daddy?"
"I'd rather not tell you. You'd really hate me."
"Try me."
"It's Ethan Craft's dad."
"Holy shit! Ethan and Kate are related? That's fuckin' wrong! Does she know?"
"No, but I'm going to tell her," she said, walking to the phone and calling Kate.
(INTO PHONE)
"Hello, Kate? It's Mrs. McGuire. I need to tell you something. Can you come over here? Okay. Thanks! Bye!"
A few minutes later, the doorbell rang.
"Hello Kate," I said, answering the door. "My mom needs to talk to you, and you might want to sit down. It's so shocking that I almost passed out. Just hear her out."
"Whatever, Lizzie. What, did she forget how to make my famous choco-drop cookies? Well, I don't give out the recipe, and I don't eat carbs, so I probably need to be going," she said, as she stood up to leave. This is gonna be harder than I expected. "Kate, sit your ass down and listen to what my mother has to say."
"Fine. Just stop being such a bitch!"
"That's enough, Lizzie and Kate. I need to tell you something. This is gonna change your whole life. And it has nothing to do with cookies. Have you ever seen pictures of when you were being born?"
"No, and that's asking a question, not telling me something. And what does that have to do with you?"
"Have you ever seen pictures of your mother pregnant?"
"No. She said that she refused for my father to let her remember being as big as a whale."
"This is gonna take a while, so just listen, don't talk. I remember when your mother was pregnant. She was in college, and much of the sorority party girl. One night, she went in a club, got drunk, and went to a complete stranger's hotel, where she had sex and conceived you. She decided while she was pregnant that she couldn't take care of you, so she put you up for adoption. It really hurt to give you up, but she was very happy when she found out that you and your new parents moved into town. That girl was me. I'm your biological mother, and your new mother made me promise that if I ever saw you not to tell you until you were 17. You'll be 17 on your birthday."
"No, I'll be 16, just like Lizzie."
"No. Your parents told you that you were a year younger, and you stayed back in Kindergarten, so you're 18 next Wednesday on June 26, the same day as Lizzie."
"My birthday is May 18, Mrs. McGuire. While this was an interesting story, I need to be going. My mother should have supper ready about now. Nice to see you, anyway. See ya round, Lizzie."
"Bye, Kate," I said. She doesn't believe Mama! "She doesn't believe you, Mom. I'm sorry. What are you gonna do?"
"Nothing to do until her parents tell her the truth. But until then, I need to tell you the rest of the story."
"The rest of the story?! I thought that that was it!"
"No. I forgot one small thing, well, one small person. I had twins."
"Oh my God! Are you serious? Where is my other sister?"
"Not sister, brother. He was born two minutes after Kate."
"Who is he?"
"His name...........is...................."she gulped, "Ethan Craft," she said, and prepared for me to totally lose my mind.
"Hell no! He can't be my brother! Stop lying! It's not funny any more. It lost the fun when Kate left. Tell the truth, who is it?"
"Elizabeth Brooke McGuire, I'm telling you the truth! I'm tired of hiding the letters and pretending that I only had two children. I had four, and I love all four of them."
"So you're saying that I was in love with my brother?"
"Half-brother, but yes. I'm sorry that you had to find out this way. I really didn't want you to find out this way. I planned to tell you when you turned 17, but I decided it would be best if I didn't, since the twins will be 17 in a few weeks."
(AT KATE'S HOUSE)
NO ONE'S POV
"Mom. You'll never believe what that kooky Mrs. McGuire told me. She said that I was adopted and that she was my birth mom," Kate said, as her mother dropped a crystal platter, shattering it into tiny pieces on the floor.
"Damnit," she said, putting a cloth onto her bleeding arm. "I was hoping that she hadn't told you yet, but I guess it's time for you to know the whole story. Come sit on the couch, and I'll explain everything."
"Now you're telling me all that shit? Not funny. Tell me the truth, by God, right now!" Kate screamed, tearing up and sitting on the couch.
"Kate, your father and I really love each other, and wanted a baby. We tried for two years, and the doctors said that he had a low sperm count, so we might never be able to conceive. We went to the hospital to see if there was anything they could do so we could have a baby. They said that it would be expensive, but we did this complicated procedure that was supposed to fertilize an egg and then insert it into me. We did that, but it was a miscarriage.
"We were about to give up, when the doctor mentioned adoption. We said that if there was nothing else we could do, then we would. We wanted the baby to have our genes, but we knew that that was almost impossible. We told him that we were willing to adopt. He told us the story of a 21-year old who had gotten pregnant and that was putting the baby up for adoption. We immediately started working on the paperwork to make us able to adopt. We were approved, and when your mother had you, we got to take you home. She asked us to take care of you and that maybe someday that you could be re-united. We told her that it probably wouldn't happen, but we weren't gonna keep you two apart. We ended up living in the same town, and every month she has written a letter. She asked us to give you the letters when you turn 17. We never opened the letters, but we just decided last month to call her and tell her that we wanted her to tell you the story. We just thought that you would believe her. I guess I can give you the letters she's written, if you want them, or you can go over there and talk to her yourself."
"I think I'll talk to her myself. I love you," she said, tears streaming freely down her face. 'This is true' she thought 'So Lizzie and I are sisters. Great!' "Bye Mom. I'll be back later."
"Okay Katie, I love you too," she replied, crying also. 'I knew that she would have to be told sometime' she thought.
(AT LIZZIE'S HOUSE)
LIZZIE'S POV
"Mom, that's just wrong," I said, crying, and not wanting to hear what she had to say about Ethan being my brother.
"Hey Mrs. McGuire, Lizzie," Kate said, letting herself in and ignoring my shouting.
"I'm ready for the rest of the story now, if you still want to tell it to me."
"I'll always want to tell it to you, Katie."
"That's what my mom calls me."
"Yes, and that's what I called you when I held you for the first and only time. I called you that when I was pregnant with you and your brother."
"So Ethan is my brother! Who does he live with?"
"He lives with your biological father. He wanted to have full custody of him, and I knew I couldn't bear to have one and not the other. He adopted your brother. You're really gonna love who it is."
"No you're not Kate," I said, causing her to raise her eyebrows and just roll her eyes.
"Who is it?"
"It's Ethan Craft."
"Oh my God! That's bullshit! You've got to be kidding me. There's no way."
"Kate, I'm sorry that your boyfriend happens to be your twin brother. I have the duplication of your birth certificates to prove it. Please don't be mad at me. I couldn't bear to tell you, and you have a better life now. And in the letters I have written you every month since you were born, it explains that. But I doubt that you've gotten those, or you would've known the truth long before now."
"I never was allowed to read those letters. I didn't even know about them."
"Well, in them is fifty dollars from every month. I knew that I wouldn't get to spend it on you, but that you would sooner or later need it. Ethan, Lizzie, and Matt all receive fifty dollars every month. I put Lizzie and Matt's in separate bank accounts. I will not let them get into it until they graduate. You, on the other hand, could spend it now, but considering how much it is, I figure you might want to invest it."
"My mom said that I could read the letters when I get ready to, so I'll probably read them tonight."
"You can stay over if you want, I'm sure you and Lizzie will have a lot of talking to do."
"Where does this put us?"
"Well, I'm not your mom, that's Anita, legally. And Rick is your father, legally, but Matthew is your biological father. He loves you, too. I've often considered what would've happened if I married him, but I know that I wouldn't have Lizzie or Matt, and I love them very much. I love you just as much. But now I need to tell you something else."
"Is it more bad news?"
"Not exactly. I also talked to your mother about some more things, and we decided that if you wanted to live with me, or at least visit, that it would be okay. We decided that you couldn't possibly choose to go back to me, and that you couldn't leave her, so you could just spend time with both families, birth and adopted. And if it's not too much, my parents want to see you and your brother. They never got to see you, since you were taken away two minutes after you were born. Your brother doesn't know you're his sister yet, so I think it would be best if his parents explained the story to him. Of course Tawny never adopted him, but I gave up all rights to him, so I didn't have to pay child support. Matthew was fully understanding of that. He has plenty of money and I don't, so he understood my choice to give you two up. He only wished he could've adopted you, too. Then maybe you wouldn't have gone through all you've gone through. I just hope that you don't hate me or your parents. And I want you to know that I love you. I love you as much as I love Lizzie, and every night I hoped that you would some day be able to know that I am your biological mother and that you were adopted."
"It's just hard for me to react. I'm sad that they hid it from me for so long. I figured that they would've told me this before now, but that just proves they're them. They've been out of the country two weeks of the month since as long as I can remember. I just wish that Amy was still my cousin. As mean as she is, I really love her."
"Well, actually, she is your cousin. Your aunt that is her mother is my cousin. She's just like a 3rd cousin, not a 1st one. But she's still related to you, never-the-less. I told her when I met her at a family reunion to take care of you, and I explained the story to her. She was very understanding, and she took care of you in her own way. I love her to death, and she knew how much I still love you, so she was very understanding and made sure nothing too bad happened to you."
"Wow. Everyone knew about this except for me and Ethan."
"I didn't know," I said, making Mama and Kate jump, for they had forgotten I was here.
"I just found out that I was your sister about three hours ago when Mama got me at Miranda's. She sorta spilled the beans and then decided that it was time to call you and tell you."
"Lizzie, Kate, would you be okay staying here while I go and talk to Matthew about Ethan? I need to figure out what we're gonna do, and I can't do it over the phone. Plus, I gotta tell Ethan about him being adopted and your brother and everything. He'll hear the same thing as you, so I don't think I should bring you two along."
"Sure Mom," Kate said, shocking even me. I'll never get used to her calling my mama Mom. I don't think I'm ready to not be the oldest anymore.
"Bye Mama. Love you. See ya later."
"Love you two. I'll be back later," she said, closing the door and leaving me and Kate home alone.
"Kate, what are you gonna do?"
"What do you mean?"
"What the hell do you think I mean? I mean are you gonna let Mama adopt you back or stay with your parents, and what about Ethan? Ya'll have screwed way more times that I could count, and now you found out that you're brother and sister. It's so wrong! There's no way that you can stay going out, and ya'll aren't friends, you just date. Ya'll are the perfect couple, too. That's the part that disturbs me. Ya'll are picture perfect. I couldn't possibly be able to guess you were twins. And what about the baby?"
"Well, I don't know about the parents. I'm gonna have to end it with Ethan. Gosh! There's way too much physical attraction. I think I'm gonna go screw him one more time before everyone finds out about us being related. And about the baby; your mom must've left plenty of money for me, so I'll use it to raise the baby on. My parents are about ready to kick me out," she said, breaking down again. "They don't understand that I only did what I did so there would be someone to love me. I know that the baby will love me way more than they ever did. All they did was give me money. They called that love, but as Mia says 'I shouldn't have to search the streets for affection' which I did. The only part that really bothers me is who the baby's daddy is. Don't you know?"
"I've heard."
"Well, yeah. I'm very ashamed of that, but for those brief minutes, I felt like my problems slipped away. When he was inside me, I knew he wasn't just trying to have the big "O", but I knew that he really wanted to have a real relationship. He wasn't like the other guys that I was with for those few minutes. If I had to have picked the one that was the most special to me, then it would've been him."
"For my sake, please tell me who you're talking about."
"I'm ashamed to say this too, but it was Larry."
"Oh my gosh! That's weird. I would've expected his to be the worst. I mean, wasn't he, like a virgin?"
"He was until he screwed me. That was $1,000 worth of love. Best money I ever made."
"Please, Kate. You may soon be my sister, but that doesn't mean that I want to know all about your sex life. That'll be for the next time we're together. I'll have one by then."
"What the hell are you talking about? I thought that you and Gordo were all hot and heavy. It seems like you two have taken the relationship as far as it will go. Everyone thinks that you're gonna be pregnant next. I don't, because I know that Gordo is too smart to make that stupid of a mistake, and I figure that you'd be on the pill."
"Well, we just recently decided to take it all the way, last night, to tell you the truth. We want our first time to be special, and we don't want to rush. We're not like most couples, in case you didn't notice. We know that sex carries too many responsibilities. I know that we're gonna use a condom and the pill. I'm not gonna get pregnant. I don't want to make that stupid mistake," I said, before I remembered that Kate was beside me, and very pregnant. "Oh God! I'm so sorry Kate! I forgot that you're pregnant!"
"I'm glad that someone could, but I can't and I won't ever be able to. But I'm glad you reminded me of that mistake I made!" she said, as she ran to the door and, before I knew it, was out of sight. I really need to talk to Gordo. I just need him to hold me, and make all my problems go away.
"RING RING!" The phone sounded, right as I was clicking for the speed dial that would connect me to Gordo.
"Hey Gordo," I said, glancing at the caller id. Who else would call from his house?
"Hey Lizzie! Are you in too much trouble with the bitch?"
"No, actually, she told me some of the most horrible news I've heard," I said, as I explained the whole problem to him. He said that he would come by and that we should talk about us and stop worrying about the problems going on with everyone else. A few minutes after I hung up with an "I can't wait to see you, sexy. I love you! Bye!" he was at my house, wrapping his arms around me and kissing me passionately, making all my problems go away. I could barely keep from going farther. Before I knew it, my shirt was unbuttoned, and his pants were unzipped. All I could say was "Don't hurt me. Take me," and all he said in reply was "I'd never hurt you."
We quickly took off the rest of our clothes, and we were lost in a world of moans and heavy breathing, as we slowly lost our virginity together.
"Kate Sanders."
"Very funny. Really. Who is it?"
"I wasn't kidding."
"Oh my fuckin' God! You're really serious! How the hell did you find out?"
"The adoption agency just told me last week. I had to wait for the perfect time to tell you. Please don't be mad at me."
"I'm more hurt. Who was her daddy?"
"I'd rather not tell you. You'd really hate me."
"Try me."
"It's Ethan Craft's dad."
"Holy shit! Ethan and Kate are related? That's fuckin' wrong! Does she know?"
"No, but I'm going to tell her," she said, walking to the phone and calling Kate.

"Hello, Kate? It's Mrs. McGuire. I need to tell you something. Can you come over here? Okay. Thanks! Bye!"
A few minutes later, the doorbell rang.
"Hello Kate," I said, answering the door. "My mom needs to talk to you, and you might want to sit down. It's so shocking that I almost passed out. Just hear her out."
"Whatever, Lizzie. What, did she forget how to make my famous choco-drop cookies? Well, I don't give out the recipe, and I don't eat carbs, so I probably need to be going," she said, as she stood up to leave. This is gonna be harder than I expected. "Kate, sit your ass down and listen to what my mother has to say."
"Fine. Just stop being such a bitch!"
"That's enough, Lizzie and Kate. I need to tell you something. This is gonna change your whole life. And it has nothing to do with cookies. Have you ever seen pictures of when you were being born?"

He wasn't like the other guys that I was with for those few minutes. If I had to have picked the one that was the most special to me, then it would've been him."
"For my sake, please tell me who you're talking about."
"I'm ashamed to say this too, but it was Larry."
"Oh my gosh! That's weird. I would've expected his to be the worst. I mean, wasn't he, like a virgin?"
"He was until he screwed me. That was $1,000 worth of love. Best money I ever made."
"Please, Kate. You may soon be my sister, but that doesn't mean that I want to know all about your sex life. That'll be for the next time we're together. I'll have one by then."
"What the hell are you talking about? I thought that you and Gordo were all hot and heavy. It seems like you two have taken the relationship as far as it will go. Everyone thinks that you're gonna be pregnant next. I don't, because I know that Gordo is too smart to make that stupid of a mistake, and I figure that you'd be on the pill."
"Well, we just recently decided to take it all the way, last night, to tell you the truth. We want our first time to be special, and we don't want to rush. We're not like most couples, in case you didn't notice. We know that sex carries too many responsibilities. I know that we're gonna use a condom and the pill. I'm not gonna get pregnant. I don't want to make that stupid mistake," I said, before I remembered that Kate was beside me, and very pregnant. "Oh God! I'm so sorry Kate! I forgot that you're pregnant!"
"I'm glad that someone could, but I can't and I won't ever be able to. But I'm glad you reminded me of that mistake I made!" she said, as she ran to the door and, before I knew it, was out of sight. I really need to talk to Gordo. I just need him to hold me, and make all my problems go away.
"RING RING!" The phone sounded, right as I was clicking for the speed dial that would connect me to Gordo.
"Hey Gordo," I said, glancing at the caller id. Who else would call from his house?
"Hey Lizzie! Are you in too much trouble with the bitch?"
"No, actually, she told me some of the most horrible news I've heard," I said, as I explained the whole problem to him. He said that he would come by and that we should talk about us and stop worrying about the problems going on with everyone else. A few minutes after I hung up with an "I can't wait to see you, sexy. I love you! Bye!" he was at my house, wrapping his arms around me and kissing me passionately, making all my problems go away. I could barely keep from going farther. Before I knew it, my shirt was unbuttoned, and his pants were unzipped. All I could say was "Don't hurt me. Take me," and all he said in reply was "I'd never hurt you."
We quickly took off the rest of our clothes, and we were lost in a world of moans and heavy breathing, as we slowly lost our virginity together.
