Zephyrs heart could've been African drums at this point. She had long forgotten the water and her main focus was packing her belongings and making her way to Jacques. Grabbing a pair of Adidas sweats, a black shirt, and Jacques red flannel she pulled on her clothes fast. She had already booked a flight to Los Angeles and the plane left at 3 am. Not only was she burning off adrenaline she was running off of pure anger. She didn't understand how in the matter of two days could Jacques parents go from loving him to hating him. If only they knew how truly talented their son was they would take all this back.

Locking her house up she secured her backpack on her shoulders and made sure her suitcase was tightly closed. Her pace was insane she could've beat Usain in a speed walking contest if that was the case. She had a couple of hours before her flight took off and her mind was set on one destination at the moment. Slamming the door shut to the Jeep Zephyr damn near teleported to Jacques parents house. Shutting the engine off she made a uproar of noise as she not so politely rang her horn. After slamming her car door shut she marched her way to the Webster's front door and knocked heavily on the wooden door.

" Who is it ?! " Jacques dad heavy voice sounded from the other side of the door with authority.

" It's Zephyr ! " she replied with the same tone. If they were going to act this way towards Jacques she had little to no respect for them at this point.

Swinging the door open Jacques old man opened while he sat his baseball bat down. " Little girl do you know what time of night it is making all that damn noise. "

" What did you do ? " Zephyr had no time for games she wanted answers and she demanded them now.

" What are you talking about ? And watch your tone little girl. "

" No, you know exactly what I'm talking about. Why would you do him like that all he ever did was work his ass off. " Her voice raised a few octaves as she responded to well aged man before her.

" Zephyr he waisted our money and lied I will not have a dead beat son in my house. "

" The only thing that is dead beat is your music career just because yours didn't have time to flourish doesn't mean you take it away from you son ! "

Zephyr couldn't stop herself from what she was saying it all came out too fast. Jacques told her how sensitive his dad was about music and how he tried to pursue music and didn't quite work out for him. And by the look on his dads face she knew she had struck a nerve. The old man was shaking like a leaf in a tornado.

" Get out my house now you and that boy of mine could be dead beats together. "

Zephyr couldn't believe the words that fell from the old man lips. Surely he didn't mean surely he remembered what his father did to him he had to remember what that felt like. The creaking of the wooden boards of the stairs alarmed Z that she had an audience. Looking up she locked eyes with the twins and Jacques mother. The looks in the twins eyes held sympathy and disbelief.

Squaring her shoulders Zephyr rolled her neck and cracked her knuckles. Walking towards the door holding in the air in her chest she twisted the knob opening the heavy wooden door. As she crossed the threshold she heard the heavy patter of feet hit the ground.

" Zephyr wait ! " the twins unison voices called out to her in panic.

" Jordan, Josh don't go back in the house. " her voice was heavy with emotion her mind couldn't wrap around what was going on right now.

" Birds ? " Jordan whispered loud enough for only Zephyr and her brother could hear. This made Z look up staring the twins in their eyes.

Josh nodded his head in contentment " Yeah, Birds. "

Jordan and Josh linked their pinky fingers together before kissing the link and holding their joined hands to Zephyr. Giving her a nod the twins both gave a toothy grin. A tear found its way down Zephyr's face as she smiled nodding her head connecting her fingers with theirs. She kissed the link gripping the connection a little tighter.

" Till the wings fall off. "
