Chapter 31

"Oh my god." I whispered.
"Maybe they're adopting a child for someone else?" Brett guessed. I highly doubt that.
"Thanks for trying to make me feel better, Brett. But why would dad want to hide something like this from me and Rose?"
"Hey, we can't just start assuming things. Why don't you just take a picture of it in case and let's get out of this car." Brett suggested.
"Ugh, I left my phone in my room!"
"We could use my phone. Cr/p, my phone is about to die. Let's hurry up." Brett directed.
I took a picture of the document with Brett's phone.
I went over to the front seat and place my hand on the door handle, trying to open the door. But the door wouldn't open.
I went through my pocket, trying to find the car keys. They weren't in my pocket. "Brett, where are the car keys?" I asked.
"You have them." Brett told me.
"I can't find the car keys!" I panicked. Brett and I searched the whole car for the car keys.
Then realization finally hit me. "I must have dropped the car keys when I was outside!" 
"So we're locked in?" Brett asked. We both looked at each other, our eyes growing wide. All we could hear was the sound of thunder and rain hitting against the floor.
"Brett, try to unlock the car door from the inside!"
"I can't. You need the keys for that." Brett said.
"We. Are. So. Done. For." I said.
"Hey, it's not that bad." Brett commented.
"Brett, we are two teenagers that broke into a car. When Suzan or dad sees us here, imagine how much trouble we are gonna get in." 
"At least we found out what your dad and Suzan have been hiding." Brett reminded.
I sighed. "Yeah."
"We might as well get comfortable." 
We both placed our heads against a side of the car, trying to sleep.
"Brett, I'm sorry for dragging you into my problems. And now you're trapped in a car, thanks to me."
"Don't sweat it, I don't mind. At least I have some alone time with you." Brett yawned, closing his eyes.
My face flushed bright red, but at least Brett couldn't see it because his eyes was closed. I smiled, and took a peek at Brett's face. He was smirking!
I lightly kicked him.
"What was that for?" Brett asked, laughing.
"You know what that was for!" I said, laughing as well.
The rain kinda drifted me off to sleep, and the fact that Brett was next to me.
"I can't believe I got you into this." I whispered.
"Shh, go to sleep." Brett whispered back.

I felt a pat on the shoulder. "Melissa, wake up!" 
My eyes slowly opened. "Huh?"
"Your dad and Suzan are trying to find the car keys!"
My eyes shot open. We both climbed over to the trunk.
"What time is it?" I whispered.
"I think its around 9 right now." Brett answered quietly.
"We're gonna be late for school!"
"Not our biggest problem right now." Crouch down, they're coming this way." Brett told me.
"Derek, I found the car keys!" Suzan screamed in joy.
Suzan opened the door, and sat in the driver's seat.
"Thanks for letting me stay Derek."
"I always accept a beautiful lady into my home." my dad said. My goodness, he's flirting with her!
Suzan blushed. "You are quite a gentlemen. I have to go to work now. Bye Derek!" Suzan said. Brett and I were barely breathing as Suzan drove off to who knows where.
