Disclaimer: I still don't own anything! Just the ideas in my mind
After realizing that they were in fact the babies that she has given up many years ago, they all agreed on a reunion that would happen in a couple weeks and she gave them her address. Eric hung up the phone and looked at his brother and Julie
"I can't believe that we talked to our real mother" said Eric
"I know, I thought that she died a long time ago" said Jimmy
"That's what I always thought...until she came to our door" said Julie just as surprised
"I don't know how I'm going to tell my mom…she won't want to hear that we are meeting our real mother" said Eric
"I know, but I think that it is our right to know…right mom?" asked Jimmy
"Your father won't agree but I think that it is your right to know your real mother" said Julie looking at her son and Eric
Eric realized that it was getting later in the day and that his mother would be home in a couple of hours, so he needed to leave.
"I got to go...thanks for telling me about her coming" said Eric as he got up off the couch
Julie nodded and Jimmy got up and walked Eric to the door
"Thank you" said Jimmy "for everything"
"That's what brothers do…no need to thank me" said Eric "keep in touch, we have that meeting soon"
Jimmy smiled at his brother and then Eric walked outside to the car and made his way back to Smallville.
Summers House
Eric reached his house and was surprised that it had gotten dark so quickly, he parked the car and walked up to the house which was all lit up which indicated that his mother was home. Eric walked in and found his mother in the living room.
"Hi Mom…can I talk to you about something" asked Eric
"Sure…sit down" she said patting the couch next to her
"I was just with Jimmy and his mother….and our real mother came by their house while Jimmy was over here...we talked to her and she wants to see us and we're going in a few weeks" said Eric
"How dare you…you don't know her…you barely know him" she said getting angry
"Mom, I don't know why you are getting so upset...I thought you liked Jimmy" Eric said
"Like him? I don't know him…I was only nice to him because he's your brother allegedly and no other reason than that" said Rebecca
"Allegedly? Mom, really…he is my brother and I think that we are old enough to decide whether or not we can go and see her" Eric said getting up
"Where are you going? We aren't done talking about this yet!" Rebecca said
"Out…and I'm done listening to you" said Eric
Eric grabbed the keys and slammed the door, he checked the trunk of the car to check for his duffle bag of clothes that he always had in there for emergencies, he then got in the car, and pulled out and started down the dark and quiet road. Eric drove for a while and reached a familiar neighborhood and pulled in a familiar driveway, he stopped the car, turned if off, and then walked up to the door and rang the bell.
"Surprise…" said Eric
"Long time no see…" said Jimmy jokingly "come on in"
"Thanks…let me just get something from the car" said Eric
Jimmy left the front door open as he watched his brother walk into the darkness to the car. Eric got his duffle bag and went back into the house…
"You told her…didn't you?" asked Jimmy after he closed and locked the door
"Yup…she doesn't want me to go and now she doesn't believe you're my brother" said Eric yawning
"It's just the anger talking…you will work it out" said Jimmy heading to the living room
Eric realized that it was nearing midnight and he had to go to school tomorrow, he said goodnight to his brother as Jimmy headed upstairs.
Smallville High-Monday Afternoon
Eric reluctantly walked into the Torch newspaper office after school was over, he hoped to find Chloe but found Clark instead.
"Hi Eric" said Clark who was typing away at a computer "is everything okay?"
"Yeah, I just thought that I would find Chloe here…I need to ask her something" he said
"She should be back soon, take a seat" said Clark smiling "I'm just working on a paper"
Eric smiled back at Clark and sat down at one of the computers and waited for Chloe
"Eric...I didn't see you there, you scared me" said Chloe as she walked into the room
"I didn't mean to scare you Chloe..." said Eric nicely "I just wanted to ask you something"
Chloe took a seat next to Clark and looked at Eric while Clark typed away at his computer
"I was wondering if you could help me find information about someone in Metropolis, I don't have a last name, just a first name and address" said Eric
"Of course I can, I am an expert at finding people" said Chloe smiling at him
Eric walked over to Chloe's computer and gave her the information that he had, after searching all the websites that she knew she was unable to find any information which she found rather strange
"Strange…it's like she doesn't want any information to be found about her, not online anyway not even a last name with that address...who is she anyway?" asked Chloe
"Chloe….that's not your business" said Clark who was listening
"It's my mother…" said Eric getting up "thanks for the help Chloe…Clark"
Eric left the Torch office and sighed, he had no choice but to have to wait for the meeting to find out more about his real mother and why she gave them up so many years ago. Eric made his way from school, when he got home where as always he found an empty house, and he was glad. He put his school supplies in his room and grabbed the phone and brought it into the living room and dialed his brother's number
"Hello?" said Jimmy from his house
"Hey Jimmy, its Eric" said Eric
"Hey...you left really early this morning for school" asked Jimmy
"Yeah I know but that's not why I called, I just wanted to tell you that I couldn't find any information about mom online, it's like she doesn't want to be found" said Eric
"That's interesting…usually you can find anyone on the Internet" said Jimmy
"I know…unless she has multiple identities" said Eric
That's the last thing we need…haven't we had enough to deal with" said Jimmy
A Few Weeks Later
Eric spent the night before the meeting at Jimmy's house, he was still at odds with his mother who barely looked at him when he went out the door to go to Metropolis. Jimmy tossed and turned in his bed the entire night, while Eric slept soundly on the couch, they both expected the best and the worst of their meeting with their real mother.
The Next Day
"I don't know…I don't think this is a good idea" said Jimmy that morning
"It's a little too late now…she's expecting us" said Eric looking at him
"I know…but after all these years there is nothing she can do for us" said Jimmy
"Exactly…its not like she is going to give us anything…she couldn't even give us a home when we were born" said Eric
"Maybe it's not to late…maybe we can find out what happened to her and our real father" said Jimmy
Eric and Jimmy finished their breakfast quickly and then remembering the piece of paper with the address on it, Jimmy grabbed it and said "goodbye" to his mother and father and met Eric in the car.
"You ready to face the truth?" asked Eric after they started down the road
"No...not really" said Jimmy looking scared
"Me either" said Eric
Eric and Jimmy reached the address that was listed on the piece of paper and they were confused by what they saw before them
"This can't be right…I was expecting...I don't know, a box with a phone and that's it" said Eric as he pulled up the driveway of the mansion
"I know…this isn't right at all" said Jimmy
Eric parked the car and they were about to get out when a very rich looking woman with a pink robe came out smiling
"Boys! I've been expecting you!" Amanda said as they got out of the car
Having no idea what was going on, Eric and Jimmy followed her into the house…
"Lock the door" she said to her butler
"We don't plan on staying long" said Eric getting nervous
"Don't worry…I plan on keeping you here for a long time" she said looking at them
