Chapter 11

She was totally different from the present she just was. She was..........

Beatrice!!!

**Beatrice's POV **

I stood up and removed my wig and then my lenses . While I was doing this Hayden was trying to understand what was happening.

As I was done' BEATRICE' was the only thing I heard and then I was engulfed in a tight hug by none other than Blake.

“You are alive. You are our Beatrice. You are finally with us. I missed you. I'm never letting you leave again.” he started saying these words , still holding me.

On the other hand Hayden was just there staring at me. And I was very uncomfortable. After living with my so called parents I'm not comfortable with any physical touch.

Hayden sensed my discomfort and asked Blake to leave me.

He looked at Hayden confused and then saw my hands in fists .

Blake left me and sat in his original position after saying a small sorry.

“If it is some kind of joke than please tell me in advance ” said Hayden suddenly.

Blake looked towards him astonished.

“What are you saying? Are you out of your mind. She is clearly our Beatrice can't you see ”he said.

“You know that this is not the first time that a girl has come claiming that she is Beatrice ,looking like her exactly, giving us hope and then crushing it” he answered Blake.

“Look I know that. But they were different they used to try their best to make us believe that they are her but she didn't even try……”

“Yes that's the point ,she never tried but why now?” he said cutting Blake and looking at me.

“Why tell us now?” he asked me.

I looked at them for a few minutes and started regretting my decision.

“I shouldn't have done that. I'm sorry just forget what happened. I'll just leave” I said standing up.

I was stupid telling them about my real identity they clear don't believe me.

“Stop” said Hayden. I didn't.

“Please” he said again with pain in his voice. I stopped.

“I know you think I don't belive you but that's it I do believe you and that's why I'm afraid that if it turned out to be false then……. You finally gave me a true hope………” by now he was crying.

I'm not good with emotions.

"What do you want me to do to make you believe?" I asked him.

I can't belive this I'm doing this .

Usually I'm not a kind of person

to give people a second chance but seeing Hayden like this I just can't help this.

He looked at me,wiped his tears and then started thinking. After some time he said “If you are really our Beatrice , my Beatrice tell us our nickname . The one that she gave us.” he asked with hope in his eyes.

I didn't say anything.

The hope in his eyes was vanishing.

I sighed.

“When I was a baby I couldn't pronounce your name or Blake's so I used to call you hayD and him lakey.” I stopped.

I didn't speak for a while.

"That was the basic

information. Our Beatrice gave us other name. Do you know them?" He asked.

I didn't reply.

After some time. He stood up and said“See that was the information that can be obtained from anywhere but the real nicknames that she gave us are only known by us. And you clearly don't seem to know them ………”

“When I grew up a little” I started cutting him “ and I was able to speak your names clearly, I still used to call you hayD and lakey. Your cousins also started teasing you so I gave you both different nicknames . Yours became D because I used to call you hayD and his became key because I used to call him lakey and I thought these names were cool”

“Because you thought these names were cool”Hayden Blake and I said at the same time. By now they both were crying.

“You..you a-are really h-her!”Hayden said crying.

“Can I hug you?” he asked.

I just nodded.

He came and gave me a short and tight hug.

He then wiped his tears and fixed his hairs. As he was about to speak when the doorbell rang.

“Stay here”he ordered.

He and Blake went to the door and opened the door.

“Hello sir.” said the voice from the door. Alex.

“Who are you??” Blake asked them .

“Sir we're here to kidnap you” said the other voice . Zach.

I supressed my laugh. I mean who say that!.

I went towards the door and stood behind them. Hearing Zach they both went on alert.

“Wait you are informing us about our kidnapping?” asked Blake.

“Yes sir we are very professional kidnappers .” replied Alex.

I scoffed.

This seemed to shift their attention towards me.

“Ah and there is our target ”said Alex with a smirk on his face and pointing towards me.

Both Hayden and Blake shielded me.

Seeing this Alex and Zach started laughing. Hayden and Blake were confused.

I couldn't stop and giggled. Hearing my giggling Hayden asked me “Care to explain?”

I stopped giggling.

I nodded and walked towards the sitting area. Alex and Zach invited themselves in and followed me. Blake and Hayden also came.

"Let me go first" said Alex.

“I'm Alex Smith.”

“I'm Zachary Smith.”

“Blake”

“Hayden”

“you two are brothers?” asked Hayden

“yes” Alex replied.

"They're your?" Asked Zach

"Cous-"blake was about to say when I cut him and said “Brothers. They are my brothers.”

They all started chatting .Mostly my brothers interrogating Alex and Zach.

**Alex's POV**

We invited ourselves in and went to the sitting area. There we introduced ourselves. When Zach asked her what was they to her she replied 'Brothers'.

“Looks like you and Aiden got some competition ” Zach teased me.

Aiden and I are like brothers to her. We know her from childhood. Zach ,me and Beatrice are of same age group including Samantha. Rest were older than us.

We started chatting. It was basically the 'brothers' interrogating us.

We all were sitting together and Beatrice was sitting separately.

All of the sudden she stood up and excused herself for restroom.

“Let me” Zach said and went after her.

We both knew what happened. She was thinking or shoul I say overthinking. Right now she must be questioning her own decision and blaming herself for being weak.

When Zach went after her Hayden looked at me confused.

Now I can seriously talk to them.

“Look I know that you guys love her and care for her and all but you guys don't know her or understand her so let me give you a advice dare to hurt her in any way and I'll personally kill you.”

As I just finished my advice Zach and Beatrice came to the room.

“All ok ?” asked Zach

“Perfect ”I replied.
