Amelia's P.O.V

I opened the letter but quickly shut it when I heard someone downstairs

"For fuck sake" I muttered before shoving the letter in my bra and closing the drawers. I ran out of the office and locked the doors in a hurry

I ran down the steps but bumped into a rock hard wall.

Wait never mind that's a chest I feel

Dylan's P.O.V

She looked up at me with her beautiful innocent brown eyes giving me a small smile as I stared at her in confusion and adoration

"What was the noise?" She said looking at me now with a frown on her face

"I couldn't find anything but why were you up?" I said not telling her the truth

Someone was definitely outside but they got away before I could catch them. I got scared thinking it's someone coming to get Amelia and kidnap her or something but I pushed that aside and looked back at the little girl who was pushed against my chest.

"Oh I was trying to find the bathroom still haven't found it though" She said bringing her fingers to her ear piercing. Something I've noticed that she does a lot around me.

"Oh I'm sorry here let me show you" i said putting my hand on her lower back guiding her to the bathroom she thanked me before closing the door.

Not wanting to be a creep I walked back downstairs and sat down on the floor sorting out the mess we made with all the pens and papers.

A few minutes later she came down the steps and sent me a small smile

"Hey Dyl Chris is coming to pick me up in five so I better go down to that house" she said bending down picking up the papers to take home

"Okay and it's fine I'll keep the papers safe here, I guess I'll see you later" I said smiling at her

She nodded her head giving me a hug muttering a small bye before leaving.

Amelia's P.O.V

I looked through the windows to see that he sat down on the couch before making a run for it. I ran down to the next street where Brandon was sat in the car.

I quickly jumped in and we went down the street. Soon enough we made it back home, as is stepped in everyone was there all my brothers, cousins, Dante and Grant.

"Show us the letters" Adam said in his deep scary voice

I put my hand in my bra which Dante smirked at until dean pushed him making him fall to the ground. I laughed before taking the paper out handing it to Adam.

He opened the letter and read it firstly with furrowed brows then slowly his eyes widened as he looked up to all of us.

I furrowed my brows but snatched it out of his hands and read it

Dear Ivan

I beg of you please let me meet my son. You've taken everything from me my families legacy my money my house but please don't take away my child from me forever. After giving birth I woke up in a house with some money and a small note saying how you've taken Dylan and fled from the country and that I shouldn't look for you. You can't do that to me you can't take away my baby, I will find you and nothing will stop me.

From Elise

My jaw dropped as I finished reading out the letter to everyone. I looked up to see that everyone had shocked expressions mirroring my own.

"So Dylan's mum isn't the women who ran the mafia with Ivan?" Jackson said

"The mafia is actually Elise's and Ivan stole it off her?" Jason said

"Why hasn't Elise come back to get it?" Elliot said furrowing his brows

"Maybe she was threatened?" I said looking up to meet everyone's faces

"Do you think Dylan knows about Elise?" Chris questioned to which I shook my head

"Were there any more letters?" Grant asked

"Yh but I only brought this one" I said putting the paper up

"When are you going to Dylan's house again?" Dante asked

"we still haven't finished the project, so soon" I said nodding my head

"Once we get all the information then we will try find Elise" Adam said standing up

I nodded my head once again as did the others before we all went our separate ways

I went upstairs and called Liam

"Are u okay? Are u alive? What am I saying of course ur alive otherwise why would u be calling me, you won't be injured cuz then u wouldn't be calling me-"

I cut his rambling off with a small laugh

"I'm fine Liam don't worry babes" I then got cut off by the door slamming open

"Who the fuck are you calling babes" Dean said marching towards me putting his hand out trying to take my phone but I quickly jumped up and put it far out of his reach

"who do you think you are barging into my room like that" I said narrowing my eyes at him

"Everyone get in here now Amelia just called someone babes" he shouted making my eyes widen

In less that 3 seconds I heard many footsteps on the stairs and 2 seconds later every guy in the house was in my room glaring at me

"Friggin hell i'm 15 I can say babes to anyone I want" I said crossing my arms

"Give me your phone now" Adam said glaring at me

"Ooooo ha ha ur getting shouted at" Liam's voice rang through the phone making everyone's glare soften before Adams hardened again

"Why are you calling boys" he said making me face palm

"I'm sorry did I need your permission to call my bestfriend" I sad sarcastically

"iM sOrRy diD I nE- YES U NEED OUR PERMISSION YOU COULDVE BEEN PREGNANT BY NOW" Dean started screaming as I huffed and sat on my bed

"If I wanted to have sex I would not have it over the phone" I said crossing my arms

"Why do you even know what that means?!" Adam said narrowing his eyes at me

"Friggin hell im 14 not 4 get used to the fact ur little sisters not so little anymore I don't need you guys bossing me around" I said huffing

The whole room went silent as everyone's gaze went to the floor. Adam looked up with a hurt look as he and the rest of the guys walked out of the room

I sighed and went after him

"Adam I'm sorry" I said but he put his hand up making me stay still

"You don't need to apologise your grown and you don't need your older brothers anymore I get it" he said before walking into his room shutting the door in my face

All of a sudden my heart sank. I didn't want him to think I don't need him anymore.

I turned around to see my other brothers staring at me

"I'm sorry guys I didn't mean it like that" I said but they all shook their heads and walked away

Oh for fuck sake

~

I've been sat in my room for an hour on call with Liam. I've told him everything and he was shook. I got off the phone with him a few minutes ago and that uneasy feeling came back to me as I thought about how upset my brothers are

I stood up and walked to Adams room. I opened his door without knocking and found his laying in his bed on his phone. He looked up and sighed as he saw me walking in

"Adam I'm sor-" I began but got cut off

"It doesn't matter" he said rolling over so his back was facing me. I walked over to the bed and sat next to him cross legged facing him.

"No seriously Adam I'm sorry I love you and the others a lot and I'll always need you guys, your my older brothers" I said smiling at him as he looked at me with a blank look

"But your grown now you don't need to suck up to me I get it you don't want us in your business anymore" he said turning over

I sighed and grabbed his shoulders turning him around so he was facing me again

"Adam I am grown but that doesn't mean I don't need you guys anymore I just want to be a little more independent and have some privacy" I said wrapping my arms around him whilst laying my head on his chest so he doesn't move again

I heard him sigh before he wrapped his arms around me too. I heard a sniffle so I looked up to see that Adam had tears streaming down his face. My mouth opened to say something but I decided to keep quiet and just comfort him

I wiped his tears away and kissed his forehead. He then sat up and readjusted himself so he was laying his head on my lap

"It's just after mum and dad passed you were my responsibility and I was always there for you, I hugged you and told you it was okay when you fell off the swings and hurt your knee and I helped you grow up, I even remember you being all nervous when you first started your period to tell me, and when you had the guts to I took you out and bought you everything you wanted" he sad laughing at the end making my eyes glossy as I played the memories in my head

"I didn't want you to feel as if you were alone and you lost everything when our parents died so I tried playing the roll of both mum and dad and then for me to see your growing up and don't need me anymore it saddens me. Your my entire life and I don't want you to not need me anymore because you may not need me but I'll always need you" he finished sitting up wrapping his arms around me before pulling me into his chest

Slowly but surely my tears began falling out even more as did his. We both sobbed in silence as we just held each other.

I felt more arms wrapping around us. Me and him both looked up to see that Chris Danny Jackson and Jason were joining in on the hug too. I smiled but it fell as I saw dean stood at the door looking all awkward not joining in

I sighed and gestured for him to come here. He shook his head and began walking out, I got out of the hug and ran after him.

I turned him around and hugged him placing my head on his chest

"I love you dean" I mumbled into his chest. His whole body stiffened but soon relaxed as he wrapped his arms around me and layed his head on mine

"I love you more" he whispered quietly hugging me tighter
