Chapter 1: Blast From The Past
It was a cold afternoon in Detroit while Thanksgiving food was being prepared at the Mercer home. There were four Mercer brothers: Bobby, the oldest and most protective of his family, Jeremiah, second oldest and always the thinker of the group, Angel, third oldest, ex-marine and playboy, and Jack, the youngest and a rock star. People might haved looked at them and wondered how they were related because Bobby and Jack were white and Angel and Jerry were black. Once they found out who their mother was, they understood. Evelyn Mercer, a saint in most eyes. She took in those four boys and called them her own.
Less than a year ago, she was killed by some hired thugs. Her four sons went out to get revenge, getting the youngest shot in the process. He was lucky enough to have survived. Evelyn was the only women who really cared about them, thought Jerry had his wife, Camille and his two daughters Daniella and Amelia and Angel had his girlfriend Sofi, or as Bobby calls her La Vida Loca. Jack never really had a girlfriend and because of that he earned the name Fairy. Bobby wasn't really the type to have a girlfriend. He had been in love once. He thought she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Her name was Faith. They had met in high school and started off with a bad start.
Flashback
"Quiet everyone." said Mr.Robins. "I said QUIET!" That shut everyone up. "Thank you. We have a new student. Her name is Faith Williams." Faith was 5'7 with waist lenght light brown hair, creamy white skin, hypnotizing green eyes and pouty red lips. "Say hello to Faith everyone." No one said a word. "I said SAY HELLO!" yelled Mr.Robins. "HI FAITH." everyone yelled.
"Ok Faith you can go sit next to Bobby, over there." He pointed to a boy sitting with his feet up on the desk and his hands behind his head. He was a little darker than Faith, had a hint of a goatee on his chin, dark brown hair slicked back to perfection, and hazel brown eyes. "Ey Mr.Robins, I don't need nobody sittin next me. I need my space. Sit her over there next to Jackie." replied Bobby.
"Mr. Mercer I will put her anywhere I want to. Deal with it or come to detention today after school." ordered Mr. Robins. Faith walked over to the seat and sat down. "Look I don't want to sit next to you either. So just suck it up. I rather be sitting over there with Jack." said Faith. Bobby just ignored her. "You know what, I will." She stood up and took the seat next to Jack. "Hi, I'm Faith."
"Jack Mercer. So what brings you over here?" asked Jack.
"That dick over there." She pointed to where Bobby was sitting.
"Oh you mean my brother? He's a dick sometimes. Don't worry about him."
"Your brother? Tell me your nothing like him."
"None of use are as stubborn as him. My other brothers are over there, Angel and Jerry." He pointed to the table near Bobby where Faith saw two black guys. "We're adopted."
"Oh."
"Ok class settle down time to start class." said Mr. Robins. And with that the bell rang. "Shit second ime this week. I'm gonna be fired." mumbled Mr. Robins. As everyone let the class, Jack caught up to Faith. "Hey Faith!"
"Yeah?" she answered.
"You wanna come over and have dinner at my house?
"Won't your mom mind?"
"No. She's the sweetest woman in the world. And she loves when we bring people over."
"Ok then. What time should I come by?"
"Around seven."
"Ok I'll be there."
"Alright see ya later."
"Bye."
It was around 6:30 when Jack got home and Bobby called him into the kitchen. "Ey Fairy where you been? Ain't been sucking dick again have you?"
"Fuck you. I was talking to that new girl Faith and I invited her over for dinner."
"Why you invite her over here?"
"Because I felt like pissin you off Bobby."
"Whatever." Minutes later and the doorbell rang. "I got it." yelled Jack. Jack opened the door and welcomed Faith inside.
"Hey Jack." said Faith.
"Hey. I want you to meet my mom and my brothers. Ma!" A woman came out of the kitchen and smiled warmly at the two of them. "Ma, this is Faith from school. She's new here."
"Hello Faith! It's always nice to see new faces around here." She gave Faith a hug, which startled her but then she warmly returned it.
"Hello Ms. Mercer. It's nice to meet you."
"Please dear call me Evelyn. And here are my other sons Angel, Jerry and Bobby, if you haven't met them already."
"Hey your that new girl from class today, huh?" asked Angel.
"Yea. Hi, nice to meet you both. Hello again, Bobby."
"Hi Faith." muttered Bobby. "Boys go wash up for dinner." said Evelyn.
"Uh, Faith. Sorry if I was bein rude to you today." said Bobby
"It's ok. I forgive you." replied Faith, while smiling at him. She watched him walk up stairs to go wash up. "So it seems that my son likes you." said Evelyn.
"What? No I don't think so."
"I can tell he does."
"Really?"
"Yes."Soon Evelyn heard thumping noise upstairs. "Oh dear they've been up there too long. Could you go get them and tell them dinner's ready?"
"Ok." She walked ustairs and went to Jack and Angel's room first. "Hey Jack, Angel it's time to eat." All she got was a muffled response. Next room she went to was Jerrys. "Jerry it's time to eat."
"Alright. I'll be down in a minute." answered Jerry. The last room she went to was Bobby's." Hey Bobby food's ready." No reply. "Bobby?" She was about to open the door when Bobby opened it. "Oh. Um food's ready."
"Ok. Faith Come're a sec." He led her into his room and shut the door. As he turned around he was pushed against the door. "Ooh fiesty." said Bobby. Faith just laughed and kissed him. Things were just gettin hot when "Bobby, Faith your food's gettin cold!" yelled Evelyn. They laughed and finall went downstairs.
End Flashback
A year later, Faith moved away to California and left a heart broken Bobby.
"Bobby, I'm goin to get some drinks." said Jack as he was going out the door. "Ey, be careful. And take a gun with you just in case!" yelled Bobby.
As Jack stepped out into the cold air, he saw a woman across the street putting boxes away inside of a house. Must be a new neighbor. Though Jack. As she started to walk towards the house, it looked like she was gonna slip carrying a huge box. Jack ran over to help her before she fell. "Uh, do you need some help?" asked Jack.
"No it's ok but thank you." replied the woman. As Jack started to walk away, he heard a loud crash. He turned around to see the woman laying on the ground with the box next to her. He ran next to her and helped her up. "Thank you so much- Jackie?"
"Faith? Is that you?" asked Jack.
"The one and only! Come here, give me a hug!" As they embraced, Jack suddenly winced in pain. "Jack are you ok?"
"Yea it's just that my shoulder isn't entirely healed yet."
"Oh yeah, I heard ehat happened here last year. I'm so sorry."
"I know. But, uh, he you wanna see my brothers? They're inside the house."
"Yeah okay." They walked up to the house and was greeted by Angel. "Hey Jackie who's this?" asked Angel. "Angel this is Faith, I'm sure you remember her." replied Jack.
"Oh, Faith! Hey girl. Don't just stand there, give a brotha some love." As Faith walked to Angel, she saw Jerry coming down the stairs. "Faith, is that you?" asked Jerry.
"Yep! How you been Jerry." She walks over to him and gives him a hug. "I've been good. Nice to see you again. You should stay for dinner." said Jerry.
"I think I will." She turned to the stairs and saw Bobby standing at the top. "Hi Bobby."
"Faith?" asked Bobby.
