Celebrate The Way That Night Hides Scars
Chapter 2
*Tay’s Person POV*
It had been three days since the kids had gone to see their mother’s grave, in that time Andy stayed locked in his room, only talking to his twin and I tried to stay alert for the demon I saw that day in the cemetery. I hadn’t seen much of my mother since Ben told her what happened. I didn’t quite understand. Why would Uncle Mike do that? He was one of the nicest people I knew. He even stopped drinking shortly after Ashley was born; at least that’s what everyone tells me. My mother tells her differently. She told me that when no one is around he has a secret hiding place for his alcohol.
I had been sitting in my room trying to figure it all out when I heard the front door open and Erin say, “Welcome back baby! We miss you.”
“I missed you guys to, where is everyone? Tay! Andy! Ben! I’m home.” I jumped up from my bed and started to run downstairs to see dad when something tripped me and held me down. I tried to scream out but couldn’t. A black mist was surrounding me and holding me. All I could do was watch.
First Ben came down and hugged their dad and welcomed him back.
“I’ve got a gift for you.” Tony said as he pulled out a shirt from his bag. “It’s..”
“It’s ‘Uncle Ben and Danny”!” He yelled snatching the shirt from him. Each of the kids was named after band members/ close friends that helped their parents or had impacted their parents. Ben’s real name Benjamin Daniel Perry. His first name was Benjamin and Daniel was well Danny from Asking Alexandria.
Neither Uncle Ben nor Danny stopped by much, but they were always in communication with Ben. They Skyped every other night and texted almost constantly. He looked up to them so much.
I was a little jealous; I would love to have a relationship like that with my aunts. My Aunt Lights used to talk to me quite a bit, until her and Beau had their baby Rocket, which I helped name. They were busy quite a bit so I forgave them.
As Ben talked to their dad about how the tour went, Andy came in through the front door. It took everyone by surprise; they all thought he was in his room.
“Andrew Matthew Perry what the hell is that?” Tony said, referring to the lit cigarette in his mouth.
“What the fuck it look like old man? You know just as well as I do what this is.” Andy said taking a puff and blowing it right in Erin’s face.
“What the actually fuck Andy? That was uncalled for, now put it out and apologize.” Their father told him sternly.
He took another long drag, “No.”
*Andy’s POV*
He had left his friends house after swiping a few cigs from his friend’s parents and headed home. Once he arrived home, he saw his dad’s car was there. ‘Fuck’ he thought to himself. He lit up a cig and went in prepared for the fight to come.

I took another long drag, “No.”
Before his father could say anything else he walked away, Ben grabbed me around my arm. “Dude, what the hell is up with you?”
“Back the fuck off bro. I’m tired of their shit.” I told my twin, motioning to Erin and Tony. I shrugged my brother off and headed to my room, leaving smoke in my wake.
*Ben’s POV*
I stood there, stumped at his brother. What had gotten into him? Yeah everyone knew that he didn’t like Erin and he blamed their dad for their mother’s death, but he never was this open about it. He normally wrote out everything in his song book. He had been acting really strange since they had gone to go see their mom.
First he was spending all of his time sneaking out and doing God knows what, he never ate anymore, and now he was smoking. This was unlike him and I was so conflicted on what to do, I love my brother, but I was slowly losing touch with him.
Before I could dwell on it any longer, Erin cleared her throat and asked, “Ben honey, where is your sister?”
That was a good question. Normally she would be in their dad’s arms by now. “She was in her room, I’ll go get her. She might be taking a nap. I don’t think she has been feeling well lately.” Tony and Erin nodded as he headed up stairs to her room. As I got to the top of the stairs I saw her lying on the floor.
“TAY WHATS WRONG?!” I yelled shaking her.
She was shaking and crying, “Ben!” she sobbed, wrapping her arms around my neck, “I was so scared, I could see and hear everything but I couldn’t move or yell. Something tripped me and held me here. Ben I’m scared.”
At this point both Tony and Erin were up the stairs with them asking what was wrong. The only one missing from the picture was Andy.
