Everything's not what it seems

Harvey's POV
I can't lie, Liv's chocolate crunch was actually really good. "What time is it?" Liv asked.

"Like 7." I said. "why?"

"I need to go walk Penny and Daisy, anyone want to come with with me?"she asked.

"Me!" Charlotte said excited. "I'm going to meet Penny and Daisy!"

"You love my dogs more than you love me." Liv laughed trying to act offended. The rest of us all said we wanted to go. "so that's one Charlotte, a Harvey, Max, Tom, Dobby, Elmo and a Tilly and Leo on the side." Liv said acting like she worked in a restaurant.

"You forgot about our drinks, Pippa and Freddie." I laughed joining in.

"Ok, lets get going to mine." Liv laughed, we all got our shoes on, clipped Pippa and Freddie's leads on and left to Liv's house. When we arrived there was a car outside, Liv looked confused. Her and Charlotte walked up to the door, Liv unlocked the door and dropped to her knees. "No way! I can't believe you're here! I thought after you moved I'd never see you again, well in person, we still call everyday."

Liv's POV
Sorry about the POV switch, it's just I want to add more to this chapter because I don't like lots of short chapters.

After I opened the door I saw Taome. Taome used to live down the road from me, we never spoke because she is 3 years younger than me but after we found eachothers fan pages and began messaging on there's and became comfortable with eachother we shared our addresses and it tuned out she lived down the road, only a month after we realised that, her parents moved up north to Morecambe. This was 2 years ago and we had only seen each other once after this, that was at the tour where Max, Harvey and Jayden sung Electric before it was released. That was also the first time I met Charlotte, we had met a few other times after that.

Harvey's POV
Yes we're back to Harvey's, I just wanted to add it in, and unfortunately it isn't true, we haven't met get but we will be meeting August 2021 for the boys 'This Is Not A phase' tour!!!!!! Any who back to the story. (Editing author here! Wow this is old tour got postponed until April 2022 😭 I met Taome in August 2021, then surprised for her birthday March 2022, i then saw her again April 2022 for TINAP tour, and charlotte surprised me there. Since then I've seen Charlotte again, June 2022, and October 2022 for a village event, and a sellebrity soccer match!)

Liv and Charlotte hugged the girl, who I'm guessing was Taome, once Caitlin had seen her she ran up to her too. "I've missed you guys! Also Liv, Penny and Daisy are adorable." Taome said.

"Wow so you love my dogs more than you love me too." Liv laughed. "Now let's go walk the dogs, then I can show you guys something I promised the last time we met up." She said.

"Ok. I'm very intrigued because I have no clue what your on about." I said, laughing slightly.

Liv got Penny and Daisy's leads on them and we all got walking, once we got on the field where Max and I first met Liv, we sat down and began talking to Taome, getting to know her. That was until Daisy began barking because she wanted a stick. Tom went to grab her a stick then screamed like a girl because Daisy went for it before he picked it up. "Probably should have told you, she gets it herself you just point at it." Liv laughed, as did the rest of us and Penny began rolling around making a weird noise, it was almost as if she was laughing too.

After chatting for a while we decided to go back. "So Liv, what's this thing you want to show us?" Max asked just as intrigued as I was.

"Well it's only 2 players so we'll have rounds, like a championship." She started. "It's Mario Cart, but on a Nintendo 64, I think that's what it is. It's an old one. Everyone else can occupy yourselves, I have plenty of books, you have your phones, and I can plait anyone's hair that asks." Liv said.

"Oooo, this'll be fun. Plait Dumb and Dumbers hair!" Tom said.

"Who are they?" I asked confused.

"Just proved my point." Tom laughed, as did everyone else.

"Well thats just rude." I huffed and sat down, trying to hide the smirk growing on my face because that was a good one.

"Can you plait my hair?" Tilly asked Liv.

"Of course Tills." She responded, Tilly sat on Livs bed with her back to us all and Liv began plaiting Tillys hair. About half way through, she realised she had forgotten to do something. "I forgot to set the game up! Give me a sec Tills." Liv laughed, plugged the game into her computer and set it all up for us. "There you go, have fun whilst I finish Tillys hair." We thanked her and began playing.
These were the duos:
Tom and Leo- Leo won
Max and Charlotte- Max won
Dobby and Caitlin- Dobby won
Tilly and Taome- Tilly won, by a long shot
Me and Liv- Liv won

The next set of duos were:
Leo and Max- Max won
Dobby and Tilly- Tilly won

Max and Tilly then went against each other and Tilly won, yet again. Finally Liv went against Tilly.

"The overall winner of this mini championship is... Miss Ava Matilda Mills. Congrats Tilly!" I cheered and hugged her. "Your prize is, you get to pick whatever films you like until the end of the week." I said.

"Today is Sunday, it's the end of the week." Tilly said laughing.

"You catch on quick, fine you can have until the end of next week." I laughed, the truth is I forgot it was Sunday. I looked at the time and it was almost 9 o'clock. "Woah we were playing for a long time. I think we should get home, you two have got school tomorrow," I pointed to Tilly and Leo. "You have high school tomorrow," I pointed to Liv. "We have college tomorrow," I pointed between myself, Max, Tom, Dobby and Caitlin. "And I guess you two are just catching up tomorrow." I said to Charlotte and Taome.

"I think if it's ok with Livs school I'm going to tag along to her lessons, I mean we both are doing our GCSEs." Charlotte said.

"I'll get my mum to email Mr Mason, my head of year, and ask." Liv said.

"I thought you were our age." I said to Charlotte.

"I am, it's called being Dyslexic and failing English." She laughed.

"Fair enough." Tom laughed. "And I'm helping Livs videography class again tomorrow. Liv don't forget your memory stick, you know Mr Barker wants it in tomorrow, he said you'd more than likely forget." He added on.

"Thanks for reminding me Tom, I almost forgot, so he's right." Liv said, laughing slightly and gave Tom a smile and a hug. I got this weird feeling in my stomach, jealousy? No, surely not, I've not known Liv long enough to love her, no matter what I think.

A/N writing about Daisy kills me, that's why I don't mention the dogs that much. She passed back in October 2020 and I miss her a lot. Writing about her helps me remember the happy things, but it also makes me miss her more. Since this chapter was originally published I've also lost Tilly and Penny. Tilly passed February 2021, just under a week after my birthday, and Penny was put down December 23rd 2022. Penny had throat cancer and being 13 we didn't want to put her through treatments, she was on meds to try and slow the growth but it got to the point where if we kept her alive, she would be in pain.
