Chereads / Hidden Eyes / Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

It's the day before mom's birthday and the event for animal cruelty, it's just the crack of dawn. I slowly climb out of bed and stripped my clothes off and took a quick shower. After putting on some ripped jeans and low cut v-neck shirt and socks. I headed downstairs and see everyone else eating breakfast.

"Well I be damn, you guys are already up and eating haha" I came and join them and ate a bowl of cereal and some yogurt. The others went to pack their bags, while I finish up and hurry to go pack my bag. I put some clothes in my bag and the new outfit I'm going to wear tomorrow. I head downstairs with my bag as the others came downstairs and joined us.

Stacey whispers in my hear "You got mom's gift we made her".

I nodded my head and showed her where I had it at in my bag. We waited for mom and dad to come down the hall from their room.

"David! Can you get the truck ready for me. Were almost finished packing." dad yells down the hall from their room.

David hurries outside and gets the truck ready and we load our bags and all got in the truck. We wait for our parents and David thought it be a good idea to take a photo of all us together in the truck. Even though we all scattered and squished together. Yet we manage to take the photo in time mom and dad coming outside to the truck.

They loaded their bags and got in and dad started driving to the helipad. He said it be easier to get their and everything if we took a helicopter. Dad pulls into airfield and our body guards and driver are waiting for us. We get out and climbed on board while our bags are being loaded and the truck being taken back to the house. Our body guards join us and the helicopter starts up and then 10 minutes later we are lifting off heading to NYC.

About 45 minutes later we arrived in NYC and getting ready to land at one of the helipads that's on the river. When we touched down our truck is waiting for us and we get out hurry to it cause it's windy and starting to rain. We get settled in the truck and everything is loaded as we drive off to the hotel.

"So dad, what is the room situations? Like who is sharing rooms and everything?" Stacey asks while texting on her phone.

"Well you three get yall own room and Brandon and Abby are staying in the suit with us." he tells her smiling at us.

We cheered and I text Court.

Cody: We just got to the city and on the way to the hotel. You find anything to wear?

I sit my phone down and look at the city as it starts to rain. Then my phone goes off.

Courtney: Yes!! it took three days but I did, and we are already at the hotel. It's so cool it's being held at one of the ones yall own. It makes it easier.

Cody: That is true haha, I'll see you in a few.

As we make our way through traffic finally reaching the hotel. One of the nicest ones in NYC and has great views. We climb out as we get to the the front and our luggage is unloaded. Dad heads inside as we get our stuff.

We head inside and wait for dad to get our rooms, all the hotel staff greats us and welcomes us. They handed us fresh baked cookies and milk, we thank them and everything. Fresh chocolate chip cookies are the best and they handed one to dad when he came over with our room keys.

"Ok Cody, David and Stacey yall are on floor 45 rooms 4510, 4511, 4512. and we be down the hall in room 4523." dad tells us as he hand us our room keys and then eats his cookie.

We head to the elevators and got in and rode up to the 45th floor. After about 2 minutes we reach the floor and we all went to our rooms. I went to my room 4510 and open the door and stepped inside. It was beautiful decorated and it reminds me of how all the hotels are. Dad always made sure everything is perfect and mom helped make sure. I laid on the bed and left my bag by the door.

I grab my phone and texted Court my room number and then put my phone down and started to put away my clothes for now. There was a knock on my door and I go answer it.

I open and get tackled into a hug by Courtney "Cody!!!!" she yells when she sees me.

Courtney has short black hair naturally but she likes to change her hair color a lot. But this time it's her natural hair color, she has that full face that flows well with her body, even though she gets haters cause she'll wear clothing that according to them should only be for thin girls. But she doesn't let that stop her from doing what she wants. Plus she's an amazing cook.

I hug her back "Hey Court!!" I say and let her in my room.

She looks around my room "Your room is nice! The view and bathroom are amazing." she looks out the window at central park.

I join her and there was another knock on my door and I go to answer and let in my David and Stacey. Court goes and hugs them both to death.

"I miss you guys!!" she tells them and we catch up a little bit and head downstairs to meet Danny.

We get in the elevator and head downstairs to the lobby and relax and smiled at everyone. Stacey watching the front door for any sign of Danny, and we just watch her.

"Sis you better calm down before you explode before you even see him." David tells her laughing.

Before she got the chance to say something smart back to him, Danny walks through the door and she runs jumping in his arm hugging him. All three of us take a pic to embarrass her later on, but also to cherish the moment. We watch them hug each other tight before we help him to their room.

Daniel or Danny, is a actor in tv shows and some movies. He has light brown hair that gives you the surfer dude vibe, he has an athletic built. Which works for her cause you'll see them working out together and everything.

They get to their room and we go join them and work on what we going to do for the night till tomorrow. Stacey helps Danny set his clothes out for tomorrow, while David and I figure out what to do.

"I think we should get pizza and watch movies and maybe some junk food. You know just be normal" I suggested to them.

They took a minute before they reply, and they all thought it be a good idea. So we got our coats and headed downstairs to head to the store. We stepped outside and see it pouring down rain, and look for the closest store.

"Hey Court how come on Kelly isn't with you right now? I thought she be with you and trying to escape from helping the event set up." David ask, which is a good question and point. She always tried getting out of setting up events.

As we hurry down the street towards the store she tells us "I thought so to, but she is with her mom helping her set up. I was hoping she would want to spend time with me since we don't get to come too NYC that much."

As we reach the store and head inside "That's weird honestly and I didn't think it was supposed to rain like this this week either." I tell them as we look for snacks.

We spend about 10 minutes getting snacks and drinks, we pay for it and hurry back to the hotel and head up to my room and we order a pizza and start trying to finding movies to watch. After awhile we find some movies to watch and the pizza has arrived, we started watching Deadpool and grabbed slices of pizza.

After stuffing our faces and watching several movies, from The Boss, The Spy, and Central Intelligence. Which are very good movies to watch. We all got tired and decided to call it a night and everyone went to their rooms,

"Night everyone." I tell them as I shut the door.

"Night" they all said going off to their own rooms.

I don't remember falling asleep that night, one minute I was shutting the door and the next I'm waking up at 8am. I grab the gift we made mom and went to the others room knocking on their door.

They open the doors "Come on we gotta go tell her happy birthday and give the gift before the event." I tell them and they all put shoes on and hurry with me to our parents room.

We knock on their room door, and dad opens it letting us in "Morning kids, yall sleep good?"

"Yeah I think we all did, we crashed pretty hard haha" David tells him as we head inside. "Is mom here and where are Brandon and Abby?" he ask dad.

"She's here and they are watching cartoons. Why?" he asked, looking at us.

"Well we all made a gift for mom so we wanna give it to her at the start of the day." Stacey tells him and went to get the little ones.

Dad went and got mom and they came sat on the couch while I handed mom the gift we made her. "Happy birthday mom!" we all tell her.

She looks at the gift seeing a photo all of the kids on the beach, then opens it and sees all the things that represent us all and telling her how much we love her. She tears up and comes and hugs us all. We each take turns telling her we love her.

Dad stands up and gets his gift out, "honey I got you something too that I know you will never take off." he tells her and hands it to her.

She opens it and opens the small box and its a necklace with all our birthstones on heart with our names engrave on it. She cried thanking dad for the incredible gift and hugged him tight. We all hugged her in a group hug. After a little bit she stopped crying and thanked us again. We all broke up and went to get ready for the event and agreed on relaxing in here till we have to go.

I went to my room and took a nice shower and sang to myself while I wash my hair and body.

"I come at you like a dark horse, ready for, a perfect storm"

I continue to hum getting out the shower and drying off. I go to put on my clothes from boxers, then I put on my new jeans and then new shirt. I grab my socks and put them on and then my Saint Laurent boots. I keep drying my hair and start to fix it to where it looks nice.

I went with black jeans to go with the burgundy red dress shirt and black tie.

"Oh wow I have to fix my hair it's getting a little long." I say to myself as I grab my wallet and everything and grab my bracelet and necklaces.

I step out my room in time as Danny and  David did. David in his gray dress shirt and tan pants. Danny is wearing a dark green dress shirt and dress pants. We talk a little bit till Stacey steps out in her new silver sequence dress that's floor length and low cut in the front and back, her hair is put up in a french braid. We all head towards our parents room once we stopped staring.

We knock on the door and mom lets us in, she's wearing a beautiful strapless floor length red dress with the necklace dad got her. She had her hair in ringlets down her back.

Dad comes out dressed in a suit with the same color shirt as David. They look so much alike when they wear similar clothing. He looks at us all and is blown away at how we all look amazing. "You all look amazing and beautiful"

We look at him "Dad we have good genes and also we have great taste and style so you know we always try our best." Stacey tells him while smiling.

Brandon and Abby come out in their new outfits. Brandon was in his plaid dress shirt and tan pants, while Abby was wearing a pink fluffy dress. We all take a family photo, and took individual photos. We all talk and watch a little bit of TV till it was time to leave for the event. Trying to get 7 people all to an elevator without forgetting someone is not easy. Especially when two are under the age of 10 but we manage some how though. We rode down the elevator to the lobby and everyone started taking photos of us as we head toward the ballroom.

We reach the ballroom and we took a photo with the professional photographer so we all have an amazing photo for later. Then we started to mingle with everyone then a long time family friend Conrad Hilton came over.

"Anthony and Cassandra Billings, how are you two doing? It's been what a few months since we got together?" he greats our dad and mom.

They catch up and talk and I head over to get a drink and look around. I found Court and Kelly talking to each other and I wave David over. When gets over to me I point towards them and I lead the way.

"Court! You look amazing, love the dress. Kelly, you look amazing as well!" I greeted them both with David behind me.

Court was wearing gold color knee length dress and had her hair up in a bun. As  for Kelly she had her red hair down and is wearing a knee length black dress that hid her body.

He greets them and Court nudges Kelly towards him basically telling him they need to talk. They walk away for some privacy to talk and me and Court walked around talking to other people. I lean into Stacey telling her what is happening.

"Kelly and David went somewhere so they can actually talk. So we should make sure everything is ok." I smile at everyone else no one can notice.

We mingle and Miss Smith, the host of the event comes over.

She's wearing let's just say an ugly shade of brown floor length dress. Since she has red hair it doesn't really suit her, but were not going to tell her that.

"Cody, Stacey how are you? Thank you for coming and isn't David suppose to be here?" she asked while smiling at us.

"Were good, how are you Miss Smith? He is, he's just talking to Kelly in private." I tell her after greeting her.

She nods and sighs "Well I guess it is about time for them to talk everything since she won't be able to hide that she's pregnant at some point."
