“She’s sick- Jude. I mean dying sick so I can’t really blame her for not wanting to spill all the family secrets,” Ellie sighed. She wanted more information just as much if not more than Jude. “All she told me is that the boy was her son and she didn’t want to get into it.”

"I know El... but I think that is an even stronger reason for her to tell you. Before it's too late for either of you to get answers." Jude didn't want to push the issue too hard. It wasn't Ellie's fault her mother wouldn't tell. "What are we going to do? I can't be his friend and keep such a big piece of information to myself. I'm not good with secrets."

[ellie-mcargent]

“My mom admitted to the photo but- she wouldn’t tell me much of anything else.”

[judebxrry]

“She just flat out refused to tell you? She needs to explain, you have a right to know. And so does Abel.” Jude quickly became close friends with the neighbors and it was difficult to keep such a big secret.

ellie-mcargent :

You really are Sherlock Berry.

Thank you, Jude. Have I told you lately that you’re my favourite?

I never thought there would be a time that my investigative skills would actually be useful.

A few times lately. It’s really no problem. You are my best friend and I would do anything to help you out.

[judebxrry]

So after hours of plotting I managed to get a barely blurry picture of the photograph you needed.

I hope it helps you get some answers.

linden: i’d dare him to not laugh for one minute

[judebxrry]

ellie-mcargent :

My fair mistake, I never know how far you want to go with these bits. That means I have to get a photo of the photo. Or take the original for next time I go down there.

Yeah. I can understand why my past actions would cause that. I’ll get the photo if you want. I’m supposed to go watch a football game at his house on Sunday.

ellie-mcargent :

As long as you don’t smoke it in the apartment. Don’t say anything to him until I figure this all out, I don’t want freak him out just in case I’m wrong. I don’t even know how to bring this up to my mom, I mean what if she lies to me?

The pipe is for show not use. My lungs have to be in perfect condition in order to be the best athlete. Your temporary secret is safe with me. Be direct. She can’t possibly deny photo evidence. 

[judebxrry]

ellie-mcargent :

It is very funny that you believe that, darling. You have your detective hat, don’t ya? I’ll call her as soon as possible.

I’ll be the one laughing one day. Of course I do. And my Sherlock Holmes pipe.

[judebxrry]

ellie-mcargent :

Usually I would tease you about that phrase but it is sci-fi freaky. I don’t know, I’ll have to talk to her.

You tease but one day it will be a phrase used worldwide. Duh. We have to get to the bottom of this asap.

[judebxrry]

ellie-mcargent :

He- he has a picture of my mom and him as like a baby. He said it was his mother. I didn’t push it because I didn’t want to seem like an insane person. But I’ve been looking at it- and it is my mom. I didn’t even know she lived here before.

Wow. Yeah - I mean he might be your brother. Actually probably is your brother. This is sci-fi freaky. Why wouldn’t your mom tell you about him?

[judebxrry]

ellie-mcargent :

I think our neighbour is… My brother

Abel? Really El I’m totally for conspiracy theories but that is quite far out there. Why do you think that?

[judebxrry]

max-brry :

Of course, how can anyone not miss this? Wow, it’s like you haven’t even tried. I’ll always have your back, so did you find booze?

It’s literally impossible. I think that after all of the time I would know whether or not I had a chance. Plus I’m okay with us only being friends. She’s the greatest friend anyone could ever have. Yes I did. Half a bottle of rum.

[judebxrry]

max-brry :

True, but she’s not my baby brother and I wanted to check in on you and Ellie. See if there’s any babies running about yet. You guys have been cohabiting for basically a year, so I think it’s fair to assume you guys are finally together.  I’m sure you’ll get better, you always do. When’s your first game?

Valid point. I’ve been missing you anyways. No. That would be a very false assumption. Ellie doesn’t like me in any way that isn’t friendly you know that. Thanks for the vote of confidence. Dad has been on my ass about it. A couple of months from now.

[judebxrry]

max-brry :

Lame, I should’ve gone to see Pepper instead. How is the season going?

Pepper lives closer to you so it would have been a shorter more worthwhile trip. It’s alright. My statistics could be more impressive. I have to work on stepping my game up. 

[max-brry]

I need a drink, had the longest shift of my life.

[judebxrry]

Maybe El has a bottle hidden around here. Unfortunately I can’t drink at all while training.
