Chapter 5

Monday, eugh. Not only did I have to go to school, but I had to tell my friends about the fact that I was fostered. Should be fun. Before I left I made sure I had the papers in my bag. As I walked to school my heart started to beat faster. At least my school didn't have a uniform, so it didn't feel like I was being choked by a tie or a shirt. My friends and I waited outside the school gates, until it was time to go in. And that's where I found them all.

"Hey guys." I said.

"Hey." they replied.

"You owe me an explanation." Hannah said.

"I do?" I asked.

"Yeah. You said you couldn't come to town, and would explain why when you next saw me, which is now. So explain."

"Oh, that, right. Well, um...none of you will believe this, but...um..."

"Spit it out." Katherine smiled.

"I was fostered." I finally told them.

No one spoke.

"Nice joke. But seriously why couldn't you come to town?" Hannah replied.

"I am being serious. I can prove it." I said.

"Go on then."

I pulled out the papers. My ten friends inspected them closely. Eyes went wide when they realised I was being serious.

"When did you find out?" Beth asked me, quietly.

"I got told I was adopted the Saturday we were at the bay, and I got told I was fostered the next day. I also met my actual parents on the Saturday, and that's how I found out." I replied.

"Really?"

I nodded.

"Over the rest of the week I got to know my actual parents, and they seem all right but I just call them by their first names." I said.

"Too right" they agreed.

"What are their names?" Emily asked.

"Jack and Ianto." I replied.

"Wait two guys. You have gay dads." They said.

I nodded again.

Their eyes went wider.

It felt good that I had finally told my friends about all of this, but I couldn't get over the feeling that this was only the beginning, and that things were just about to get worse. Sometimes I wish I was wrong.

For the whole day my friends would ask me questions. Unfortunately it meant other people would over hear the conversation and then start telling everyone. And I mean everyone. People would come up to me and ask if the rumours were true, whilst others taunted me. The ones that taunted were mainly the 'bully's', of whom were all boys, so they got a good kick in the balls. By the end of the day, the whole school knew. I was glad that the hub wasn't that far away.

As I stepped off the platform the pterodactyl (whose name I was told was Myfanwy) landed beside me. She had never done that before. Jack had told me that Myfanwy only liked Ianto, and would only let Ianto near her. Well, I guess he was wrong. I went to touch the prehistoric bird, she made no move to attack me or move away. I stroked the animal. It was amazing; I mean how many people get to say they have been able to touch a pterodactyl. Well saying that, how many people get to say they've seen an actual pterodactyl.

"Well that's new." I heard someone say.

Ianto was making his way towards me, from the archives. The archives were pretty cool, Ianto had shown me it on the tour, and I could see why he didn't let anyone go down there without his supervision.

"That's what I was thinking." I replied.

Myfanwy flew back to her nest. The prehistoric bird was magnificent.

"So how was school?" Ianto asked, as I walked forward to meet him.

"Let's just say, I'm glad the hub isn't too far away." I replied.

"Why, what happened?"

"I told my friends today about what happened over the week, they kept asking me questions. Some people over heard the conversation, spread it round school, people came up to me all day asking if it was true, or they came over to taunt me but they were mainly the 'bully's' and they're all boys, and by the end of the day the whole school knew. So when school was done I was just grateful that I wouldn't have to run 'home' to get away from them." I explained.

"Take no notice of them. The only reason they would be taunting you is because they are insecure little children, that think they have to make everyone around them feel tiny too make themselves feel better. Next time, just punch them, and if you get in trouble tell them to call me."

Ianto always knew the right thing to say, it was good to know that I could go to him with any problem I had and he would give me the right advice. Sure Jack did too, but Ianto was a bit better.

"Well, I did kick them in the balls." I said.

"That's my girl." I heard a new voice say.

Jack was making his way over to Ianto and I.

"Why was the kicking of peoples balls?" Jack asked.

I caught Jack up quickly, and he agreed with what Ianto had told me. It was a shame that I couldn't start calling Jack and Ianto, dad and Tad but it was difficult. But I was sure that I would get there soon enough.

Tuesday wasn't much fun. I had more people bugging me, and I hate it when people bug me. You see I have a short temper, and most times I couldn't handle it well. Unfortunately, today was one of those days. Only one person had to be a total little fuck too make me fly off the handle. To be honest, I hadn't really had the best Monday evening or Tuesday morning. Monday evening Julie and Michael told their family that I found out, and no one was happy with that. And as always I was caught in the middle. I honestly didn't know how I got there this time, but it ended in me having to choose to stay with their family or going back with Jack and Ianto. I was glad that Michael told me to go to my room right after they said that. The little fucker that pissed me off was one of the kids I kicked in the nuts, Tom Greene. He called Jack and Ianto 'a pair of fucking fairies and that everything about them is wrong'. So I punched, and kicked, the living crap out of him, while yelling that everything about him was wrong and that if he couldn't accept two people for who they are then he's a pathetic low life that needed to realise that everyone's different. Tom fought back though, so it wasn't like he was the only one hurt, but to be fair I didn't care that I was hurt. I kicked Tom and started to walk away. It seemed like we had gathered a crowd. One of my friends grabbed my arm. I shook them off and legged it. I climbed over the fence that surrounded the school, and just ran.

I ran as fast as I could. Once the school was out of site I stood still. While standing on the side of the road I was thinking about where I should go. In the end I decided home, my real home.

I didn't take the platform this time. That's how Jack and Ianto knew for certain something was wrong. I didn't realise I was crying, until Jack pointed it out. Hell, I didn't know how I was bleeding or bruised until Ianto pointed it out. Before they asked me any questions they took me to Owen - who was down in the autopsy bay – to check out the cuts.

"What the hell, is it World War Three out there?" Owen asked when he saw me.

"Owen check first, and then ask questions." Jack said.

It took ten minutes before Owen gave the all clear. The three of us went back up to the main hub, where Tosh and Gwen were. Ianto made everyone coffee, and a hot chocolate for me, before the questions started. They asked me what happened and why I was here. Once they knew the full story no one was all that happy, but Jack and Ianto had to be the worst. Both of them looked like they were about to explode, I knew how they felt. They both said that I shouldn't go back to school for a while since the situation that had occurred today was out of hand, and that they would talk to Julie and Michael. They said that while I wasn't at school I could come to the hub more and help out. I liked those ideas very much. I remained at the hub for the rest of the day, and into the night.

I woke up the next day, but not in my room. Though the room I was in looked very familiar. The walls were a light shade of red – not pink, but close – and there was a book shelf full of books. I walked over to the books. Books such as Harry Potter, the Twilight Saga and Morganville Vampires were there. They were three of my favourite series. I found a bag sitting in the far corner; the bag was filled with a spare change of clothes and my toothbrush. So after I did my morning routine I walked out of the room. I was still in the hub. The last thing I remembered was sitting with everyone laughing. They were telling me about some of the aliens they caught and how they caught them, I must have fallen asleep. I then though that the room I was in must have been the room that was used when I was a baby. Jack and Ianto told me that they gave me up when I was a baby, but they weren't very specific. That was something else I had to ask, why they gave me up and how old was I. But I wasn't going to ask today. Though I would ask soon.
