Chapter 3: He Gets a Say!? Jake Speaks His Own Words!
^ Above is a picture of Moon. I kind of imagined her different, but this is what she actually looks like. So, uh, that's all! Let's get going on the chapter! Yay! Here we go!
-Jake's POV-
'What in the world am I doing!?' I think as I say something that even scares me.
"So, you finally wake up. 'Bout time." I say like I'm some creepy villain from movies, and such.
"What do you want from me!?" Moon yells standing up on my now open palm.
"I don't know. My body just got me up, and isn't listening to me." I state staring at her before realizing I just spoke what I was thinking. My face goes from a frown to a complete shocked face, suddenly I hear screaming and look down realizing I had dropped my hand that was holding Moon. Immediately I shoot my hand down below her, and catch her with an open palm. As soon as she lands she curls up into a ball though. She mutters something, but it's too quiet to hear it.
-Moon's POV-
Jake just said that his body wasn't listening to him. What does he mean by that? He's always been mean to me from the first day I laid eyes on him. When i first saw his eyes i thought something was weird, cause we both have the same eyes color, and it's the exact same shade too. That's what made me think that we were related, but of course, I don't even know who my parents are, or what they even look like. As soon as I thought that, I pushed away that we could be related.
But, back on track, the next thing I know is that he's shocked, and I'm falling. I start screaming, and he rushes a hand out to get me after he realizes that I'm falling. I land in his hand, but immediately curl up into a ball.
"Please don't hurt me." I mutter repeatedly, but, something that I didn't expect to happen, I feel something rub my back in circles. It feels so good that I unroll from my ball and relax. After a few minutes, I dose off. I know this because the next thing I know is that I wake up still in Jake's hand.
"Wha-What happened?" I ask groggily while rubbing the back of my head.
"You passed out a few minutes ago. Are you ok?" Jake asks rubbing my back with one of his fingures again.
"I think so, yeah, I am." I say taking a few deep breaths. I had no idea what to say. 1. Jake can finally speak how he wants, and isn't being controlled. 2. He feels closer than a friend, he, feels like a brother. 3. I haven't ever seen him like this. Whenever I'm around he would always yell, or threaten me. None of this makes any sense!
-Jake's POV-
After Moon wakes up after passing out, 15 minutes pass, and she seems to have forgotten what happened.
"Wha-What happened?" she asks while rubbing the back of her head. I guess she doesn't rub her eyes like everyone else does, but, mom doesn't rub her eyes either. Hmm, that's something I'll ask her later.
"You passed out a few minutes ago. Are you ok?" I ask then start to rub her back with my finger to help her relax a little bit more.
"I think so, yeah, I am." she says before trying to calm down with some deep breaths.
I've never had a proper conversation before now with her. I wonder why. But before I can think anymore, and with the silence, I don't like it.
"So, what happened to you before starting middle school?" I ask remembering one of the questions that I had wanted to ask.
She's deep in thought, and then she looks up at me with eyes filled with sadness. Instead of letting her talk I start talking again.
"Have you really gone through 37 foster families?" I ask remembering what I last saw in the papers before school started again.
"Uh, you could make it 40 now. I've been placed with families around here so I can still go to school. I wish they hadn't found me though. They just got in contact with one of my parents, somehow, they want to actually take me in. I don't understand it. But now, I'll never get to meet them. That's all I ever truly wanted, was to know who my true family is. Guess I can't now, if I'm discovered by anyone, I'll be going to the lab to get tested on." Moon says looking down. She starts twiddling with her thumbs, and it makes me smile.
"I'm sure that you'll get to meet them." I say before I hear a knock on my door, and I look at Moon, and she looks at me. The best thing I can do is put her behind my pillow. I get up slowly, and then tell her to hide as soon as I put her down by my pillow.
"Hold on!" I call making sure that Moon is hidden well enough.
"Let me in! Jake!" my mom's voice sounds from outside my door.
"Come in!" I holler and unlock my door.
"I need to talk with you." mom says coming in and sitting on my bed.
"What about?" I ask sitting down next to her.
"You know that story that I told you about how a princess lost her baby?" she asks.
"Yeah, what about it? It's just a story." I say with a questioning look on my face.
"Actually, it's not just a story. I may not be a princess, but I did lose my baby. You would've had a twin, but she had to stay at the hospital all the time. One day, when I went to check up on her, the doctors said that they had put her in foster care. I was so heart broken I couldn't handle myself. Well, I just found her again." mom states with a happy smile.
"What do you mean, you just found her? Did you just find her in another home, or something?" I ask then remembering what Moon just said a few minutes ago.
"No, I found the foster home she was just in last month. But, now that, that family left her, we get to be a family again." She says. My face is full of shock, but what shocks me even more is what her name is, "Her name is, Moon Allen Kate Destor. That's her full name. Yours is, Jake Allen Kate Destor. Everything but the first name are the same. Also, I'm pregnant." mom states now hugging me. I'm too shocked to even hug back.
"Wait, so, the girl from the paper, is, *gulps* my twin!?" I half yell half scream.
"Yes." mom replies before letting go of me, and I pass out.
-Moon's POV-
I'm just as shocked as Jake looks. We're TWINS!? That has got to be the weirdest thing, but the moment I laid eyes on Jake, I felt a spark, and I fell in love. I'm in love with my twin! THAT ISN'T POSSIBLE!
I see him pass out, and then his/our mom runs out of the room to call 911, but that's all I remember because I pass out too.
Welp, we get to find out what happens to Jake next chapter! Oh boy, I made this hectic. I hope you still like it. Thanks for reading, please leave a vote, and or a comment letting me know what you think, that's all for now! Bye!~
