10 - The Bonding.
Back to Charlie's POV:
I had cried myself to sleep that night, like I had done many a night when I was younger. I woke up with Jim sitting next to my bed with his mouth hanging wide open. It was a prime opertunity to pull a prank, but after last night I didn't dare do anything.
I hope out of bed and find the kitchen easily. Once I find it, I see that Jesse is already awake.
"Morning," I start. "I'm sorry about last night."
"It's ok," he responds."I would be like that too if I was in your situation."
"Thanks. So what is in this kitchen?"
"Basically anything you want."
I open the fridge to see it filled to the brim with food. I end up picking out some eggs and toast.
"You want eggs," I ask.
"Sure, might as well have some," he says.
I cracked 3 eggs in a pan that Jesse gave me. In no time they were done and the bread had just popped out of the toaster.
"Should I wake Jim," I ask. "I mean...dad..."
"No, he'll wake up at one point," Jesse answers. We'd down at the table. "So tell me about yourself."
"Well, my full name is, now is, Charlie Ava Moriarty. I play almost every instrument you could think off. I sing at a pizzeria by Sherlock's. I have a boyfriend named Asher Black. I'm not that interesting."
"By the sound of it you are."
"How about you? What's your story?"
Jesse looked like a young Jim Moriarty, but he didn't have the insanity in his eyes that my dad did. Even though he was a year younger than me, he looked my age and acted my age. Probably because of the war he was brought up with a criminal. I wasn't sure if it was heathy, but I was looking forward to learning more about him.
"I was born a little more than a year after you. I grew up with my Jim and our mom for a year, but then Tori suddenly disappeared and was deaned dead. So I've been living with our dad and Sebatian most of the time."
"You don't sound too shabby yourself," I state.
Just then I could hear the front door open. I leaned back in my chair to see Sebastian.
"Hey guys. What are you doing," Sebatian asks as he walks into the kitchen.
"Planning to maliciously murder some important figures in society," I respond with a smirk.
"Oh, cool," Sebastian says. He stops himself then turns back around with a half astonished and worried look. "Wait a minute, what did you just say?!?!"
"You heard me, I said we are planning to maliciously murder important figures in society."
I could see Jesse in the corner of my eye trying its hardest not to burst out laughing.
"Honey," Sebastian says as he kneels down in front if me. "I know it's hard to adjust, but that isn't the way to do it."
"We just thought it would be fun to follow on our father' footsteps since, you know, he's such a good role model."
"I know you know that's what we do, but I don't condon it in any shape or form."
"Goodmorning,"Jim says as he enters the kitchen fully ready for the day with his hair slicked back and in a suit.
"Good to see your finally up," I say.
"Is something wrong," Jim asks once he notices that Sebastian is kneeling I front of me.
"Your kids think that you're a good role model and want to follow on your footsteps," Sebatian answers.
I had lost it at that point and doubled over in a laughing fit, and so had Jesse.
"I'm dying! I'm dying of laughter! You guys are so gullible," I say between spats of laughter.
"Me too! We're both dead," Jesse says. "Did you seriously think we thought that was a good idea?!?"
"Well, ummmm, you never know. I was just worried that Charlie wasn't ok," Sebastian says embarrassed as he scratches the back of his head.
"I'm not that emotionally unstable. I've been though enough that not a lot of things phase me," I inform.
Just then I got a call from Asher. I picked it up and left the kitchen.
"Hey Asher," I start.
"Hey, umm, there's something u have to tell you," he says.
Oh no...
