Elis POV
"Hey guys pancakes are...OH MY GOD!" As soon as I heard the door slam I froze
"Oh, please please tell me I just imagined that" I said outloud
"Eli?" Clare finally said in a small voice
"Yeah?" I looked down at claires face after several moments, her cheeks burning red, her mouth slightly open from shock and her eyes bigger then Id ever seen them staring at the door
"Um, I love you, but Im going to need you to get off of me,"
"Uhh what? oh yeah, ok." I sat up then , I had never been walked in on before, how do I handle this situation? I was in the middle of thinking this, when we heard a knock on the door, I looked over to clare who had managed to already get dressed, I quickly threw on some jeans and a shirt and slowly opened the door standing face to face with my sister. "Hello Elizabeth, what can I do for you"
"Hello Elijah" she replied looking at me awkwardly"I just came back to tell you that pancakes are ready if you would like to come down for some,"
"Thank you, We would love some we will be right down."
"Alright, Ill see you then" She turned and walked away clearly confused as too why we were both being so formal and well weird.
"That was, different" Clare suddenly said from behind me,
"Yeah, we get formal when were nervous,"
"Should we go get this over with?" she asked me, I wanted to say no, we should just run away and forget my sister exists, but I didnt,
"I guess so"
As we walked down the stairs I could hear Liz getting breakfast on the table, setting up dishes, and putting pans in the dishwasher, we turned the corner to the dining room, and took our seats, when Liz came into the room silence was all we could hear, it felt like hours with the three of us just sitting in silence, someone had to break the tension, this was ridiculous...
"Well, this is super awkward," I looked over at Clare who was the one to finally say something, and started laughing. So did Liz and Clare.
"Maybe next time close your door?" Liz finally said looking at me with a goldsworthy smirk on her face,
"Maybe next time knock?" I replied, the same smirk on her face.
"I would have, had your door been closed," she replied getting up to put her dishes in the sink.
"Hey Liz?" I quickly yelled remembering something i had wanted to ask her but had forgotten about in the mornings...events.
"What?"
"How did things go with the lawyer last night?"
"Oh, they went good, you have to sign this paper that i brought home becuause your over 16, but once you sign it, you are officialy under the gardianship and custody of Miss. Elizabeth Goldsworthy, or at least thats how the lawyer said it." She replied with a big smile on her face.
"And then its over? no courts, no more lawyers?" I asked hopefull
"And its over," she said "Now im going to go do the dishes, why dont you two just go upstairs and finish what i interupted before breakfast" she finished laughing.
"Oh my god Liz, could you be anymore embarrasing?" I practically shrieked looking over at Clare who as usual turned bright red right away
"I could always break out the baby photos if you think thatll work," She yelled from the kitchen
"Were going upstairs! dont bother us!"
:"Oh dont worry, Im never going near your room again."
******OK ok i know this chapter kinda sucks, but I was just trying to get back into the hang of writing it out, i promise they will get better, and maybe we will even get to see Liz's boyfriend? who knowssssssss.****************
