It was bright in the morning. Brice had gotten up out of bed. He felt tired. “I know those three were doing something. I felt like they kept me up. I heard them laughing and moaning.” Brice got dressed and made his way to Robert’s and Ronnie’s bedroom. He knocked on the door. Robert, Ronnie, and Lacy all had a huge headache.
“Dammit… Who’s knocking?” Ronnie asked feeling too exhausted to get up.
“Dad. Maybe.” Robert answered and sat up. Brice knocked again. “I am coming.” Robert got out of bed slowly and went to the door. He opened it and just peaked his head out the door. Trying to hide himself. “What?”
“Don’t think I don’t know what was going on in here!” Brice glares at him.
“Dad, my head hurts. Can we talk about this later?” Robert just wanted to get back to sleep.
“No. We talk about this right now. You three better get dressed by the time I get back from making breakfast.” Brice walked off. Robert shuts the door.
“He knows?” Ronnie asked.
“I think so. We better hide those beer cans.” Robert said. Lacy was just laying there.
“I am so tired.” She said and was falling back asleep. Robert started to get dressed. After he got dressed he threw Ronnie his clothes. He also threw Lacy’s clothes up on the bed too. Robert started cleaning the mess up they made with the beer cans all over the place. Ronnie got off the bed and started dressing himself. Lacy had passed back out. Feeling very tired and felt like her head was spinning. Ronnie finished getting dressed.
“Help me with Lacy.” Ronnie tells Robert. They both were trying to help her get dressed. After they all were dressed, they shook Lacy. “You need to wake up so we can change the bed sheets.” Ronnie tells her.
“O-Okay…” She got up slowly off the bed and sat down on the floor. Ronnie and Robert began to change the bed sheets. They took the old sheets off and put clean fresh ones on the bed. They ended up putting the dirty sheets in the hamper. Eventually, Brice came back to the bedroom. Lacy had passed back out on the bed. Robert and Ronnie were awake.
“You think I didn’t hear you all last night?” Brice was glaring at Robert and Ronnie.
“Dad, it’s not like we never had sex before. You know about it.” Robert said.
“I am getting pissed off! All three of you need to stop this! You think I really want my two sons sharing one girl?! It’s not normal!” Brice yelled. Lacy woke up from the yelling. She sat up and rubbed her eyes.
“Please stop yelling.” She said. She felt like the room was spinning.
“No! This room stinks! I know you all got into my beer! You all were doing things you weren’t supposed to do!”
“It’s your fault for letting her spend the night with us.” Ronnie said and laughed a little.
“This isn’t funny!” Brice felt like he was getting more angry. “How would you all like it if I ban Lacy from ever coming here?!”
“You can’t do that!” Robert was getting mad now.
“I can! This is my home and I can ban her from stepping foot in here!” Brice threaten. Lacy felt her heart beat fast. She was afraid. Afraid to not be able to see Robert and Ronnie no more. She was also afraid that Brice told her parents and that they were waiting for her to come home to get another lecture.
“Stop it!” Lacy yells. “Please stop it!” They all stare at her. She starts to cry. “I don’t want you yelling at your sons! Please don’t!” Lacy says with tears in her eyes.
“If you didn’t want this to happen, then you shouldn’t have done that last night! Should you?” Brice stared at Lacy.
“Please… Please don’t ban me from coming here!” Lacy says feeling upset. “I know what we did was wrong! It was bad! I just don’t want to be forced to be separate from them! Please!”
“Look, I don’t want you accidently having another accident again. You don’t want to be a teen mom. You were lucky to get out of it before.”
“You call it lucky that I had a miscarriage?” Lacy asked now glaring at Brice.
“You didn’t want the kid and you were too young to even have it anyways. I sure in the hell hope you aren’t pregnant again from all this going on.” Brice responds to her.
“Why do you just yell at us?! We know what we’re doing! We know if we continue what we been doing will cause. We know the consequences! “ Ronnie yells at his dad.
“Are you sure?! Do you really think you can take responsibility if your actions cause her to end up pregnant? Think about the baby?! The baby will be so damned confused on who’s it’s father because the mother couldn’t decide which brother she wanted!” Brice rudely replied to Ronnie.
“Just shut up!” Lacy snaps at Brice. “Shut up! I don’t give a damn! I don’t! I don’t give a damn of what you say! I don’t care if I get pregnant! I don’t give a damn if you think I am weird! I don’t care!” Lacy got up from the bed. “I don’t even care if you blame me for what happened last night! I don’t care anymore! Go ahead and tell my parents! Whatever you do, you can’t stop me from loving your sons! And you sure in the hell can’t do anything if we become of age later!”
“She told him off?” Ronnie thought to himself surprised.
“I don’t understand why you don’t just shut up and leave us alone?!” Lacy rudely said to Brice and then brought Robert over to her and kisses him. Robert was just surprised. She pulled her lips fast from his and then brought Ronnie over and kissed him. She then pulled her lips away from his quickly. “Does it make you mad?! Huh?! Does it?!”
Bryan was overhearing all the arguing but he did what his dad told him to do. Not get into it. Bryan was eating breakfast and just waiting for the others to come down and eat.
“I don’t understand… WHY DON’T YOU JUST LEAVE US ALONE?!” Lacy dashed out the door with tears in her eyes. She went into the bathroom and slammed the door.
“This argument is really going nowhere.” Brice said. “I need to call her parents so they can come and get her.”
“Dad, I know we are all still young, but Ronnie and I smoke. We steal your beer, we curse. Can’t you just give up on discipline us? We aren’t the best teenagers or kids but can’t you just be happy we aren’t going out there stealing?” Robert asked his dad.
“I don’t want you two to grow up being very immature adults.” Brice answers.
“But dad you smoke, drink, cuss. Do we just act similar to you?” Robert asked.
“I would never share a girl with my brother.”
“Yeah, but Michael is our half brother. Mason slept with mom.” Ronnie reminds Brice.
“Your uncle was forced into it when he was young.” Brice response was.
“You really believe that shit?” Robert laughed a little. “Your parents, our grandparents are angry with him because they know the truth. The real truth was that your brother just feels ashamed of it so he lies to you.”
“If he really lied then why don’t he have a relationship with anyone? He acts like he’s too scared to form one because of what happened.” Brice didn’t like what Robert and Ronnie were saying.
“I got to tell you the truth on that, I heard from Michael that his dad used to keep bringing different women home most of the nights.” Robert tells his dad. “I recently heard about it. I think uncle lied to you so you wouldn’t argue with him truthfully.”
“This is nothing to do with what’s been going on with Lacy! You two shouldn’t be doing this with her!” Brice wasn’t exactly sure of what Robert meant. He never knew Mason to lie to him and Mason always seemed quiet. He didn’t know if Robert and Ronnie were just lying to him to get his focus onto Mason instead of them.
Lacy was sitting in the bathroom. Tears were running down her face. “I can’t believe I yelled at their dad like that… My parents are going to be so mad at me… I shouldn’t of gave in last night!” Lacy thought to herself. She felt very upset. Tears just kept coming down her face. She tried to wipe them away, but more came out. She already woke up with a painful headache. Crying was making it feel much worse.
“Dad, I thought you didn’t care when I was dating Lacy? You said I have to take responsibility if anything happens. So, why care what we both do? We can just both take responsibility.” Ronnie said to his dad.
“Yeah, we never were perfect so you might as well hang that one up in trying to make us into little angels.” Robert laughed. “How about doing that with Bryan?” Brice sighs.
“I don’t know what to do with the both of you.” Brice left the bedroom. Lacy came out of the bathroom. She managed to stop her tears and dried them. Brice seen her when she came out of the bathroom.
“I…I am sorry.” Lacy said looking upset. She then looked down. “I really shouldn’t have… yelled like that.”
“It’s alright.” Brice replies and walks away from her. Lacy goes back to the bedroom with Robert and Ronnie.
“Is your dad still mad at us?” Lacy asked.
“Who the hell knows.” Robert said. “I might go clean those bed sheets.” Robert got the dirty bed sheets and left the bedroom.
“I feel tired. “ Lacy laid down on the bed. “My head hurts.”
“Mine does too.” Ronnie started changing his clothes again. He puts on pajamas of his. He wanted something comfortable to wear. “I am resting all day.” Ronnie said as he laid down by Lacy.
“I need to call my mom and dad. I feel like my head hurts too bad though…” Lacy felt like she was going to past out. Robert had started the washer with the bed sheets in it and then went back to the bedroom. “We’re tired. I need to call my house… Tell them I will come home later… Too tired…” Lacy passes out. Ronnie was already passed out next to her. Robert flashes a little smile at Lacy.
“She’s something else.” Robert thought to himself. He left the bedroom and went downstairs in the living room to call up Lacy’s home. He was trying to get a hold of her parents for her to tell them that she was tired to come home at the moment.
“Hello?” Abbilynn answered. “I really need to leave, make this quick.”
“Hey, Lacy is going to stay here and come home later. Maybe tonight.” Robert tells Abbilynn.
“Robert? Oh. That’s fine. I need to get going. Thanks for telling me.” Abbilynn got off the phone with Robert.
“That’s taken care of. I feel like I need to rest too.” Robert was going upstairs and seen his dad.
“I am not even sure what to say anymore between you and Lacy. Ronnie too. I just hope you’re happy.” Brice tells him and went down the steps. Robert finished walking up the steps and went into his bedroom.
“I am happy actually. No matter what. I want to be with Lacy.” Robert thought and smiles a little staring at Lacy who was asleep.
