Hanna sat down on the couch and looked at me. Her hair was full of ringlets and her ear had gold dangling earrings hanging on them. There was a locket hanging on her neck.

“Okay, you have a boyfriend that must’ve bought you all this stuff? Or were you paid that much because of choreographing a music video or movie?”

“No. Dad bought me all these stuff”

I gave her a confused look and so did Nathan.

“You didn’t read the news? Two weeks ago, Paige and Caylah were cleaning out things from the basement and found your old things. And behind one of dad’s drawings were letters from him. Caroline checks the mail every time and when she finds a letter for you she hides them behind dad’s drawings. Somehow Paige and Caylah also found an information slip that said the house and everything Caroline says she owns is for the four of us. Not for Caroline. Now Paige and Caylah live with us and we’re still looking for you. Dad’s agents are still looking for you but I ended up being the first one to find you”

The boys had a sad look on their eyes. This also meant something. If dad’s alive and his agents are searching for me, this means I needed to come with Hanna.

“Please Han; don’t tell dad I’m here. I wanna stay with all the boys longer and even Nathan. Our relationship has only been three days”

“Fine, I won’t. But someday you need to show up” 

I nodded and looked at all of them.

“I think I’m not hungry anymore”

Siva ran to the guesthouse being followed by Max and Tom. I followed them and gave the three of them a sad look.

“Okay, I might be living with different people soon but I’m not going sooner or later. I’ll spend more time with you; I might even come to tour”

“We never got to know you that much. Only Tom and Nathan know you that well”

We made a huge group hug and sat down on the guest bed beside each other while I was sitting in the middle.

“She’s my sister, don’t worry. We can trust her”

“We’re not talking about Hanna, we’re talking about you. How if she tells your father that you’re with us. What will we do? I mean you’ve only been Tom’s sister for three years. And at the end of summer, you’re going to college”

Max was right. If this summer ended, I’m gonna have to go through college without them. Nathan and I have been planning about college for a long time but he ended up being famous so we don’t get to end up going to college together. But my school was only in London, they can visit my flat anytime. College wasn’t always the time I was waiting for. After college, I get to work. Now, Nathan is a famous singer that travels around the world being well known to all the girls he doesn’t even know. Silence filled the atmosphere; we all were just looking at each other until we burst out laughing.

“C’mon squirt”

Tom put his arm around my shoulder as we walked out the guesthouse. Kelsey and Nathan were the only ones in the living room.

“Where are Hanna and Jay?”

“Out on a date, apparently Jay has finally made the move”

“Are you serious? Their first date is different, it’s in-”

“A dance”

Nathan had a suspicious grin plastered on his lips. Siva wiggled his eyebrows and Max gave him a thumbs-up, Tom raised one eye-brow while smiling.

“Okay, is this a boy-to-boy contact?”

“No. We all are going to that dance, even though Max and Siva are going alone”

“Oh no, Nareesha is coming over in 3…2…1”

The door burst open revealing Nareesha, I think.

“Hey Siva”

She ran to Siva whose arms were open for her.

“Hi you must be Lea. I’m Nareesha. So, Tom I heard this dance from outside, whose Max going with?”

Max shrugged and crashed on the couch holding the remote control.

“You guys go ahead, I’m staying here”

It was a summer’s dance. I could see Jay and Hanna from where I was standing. Nathan put his hand around my waist while I was talking to Kelsey and Nareesha. Since I met the two of them, we all were already really close. They were like sisters. Well, Kelsey’s gonna be my sister if Tom ever makes the move. Since the twenty-fifth of May, I was always wishing to finally meet the boys, their girlfriends and also Kelsey. Tom was always talking about her when he would be home by Christmas. Well, he only would be home once. Two girls approached us and smiled. 

“You don’t remember us do you?”

My eyes widen. I stood up and embraced the two of them in a hug.

“Girls, these are my step-sisters – Paige and Caylah. Paige, Caylah these are my friends Kelsey and Nareesha”

“Hey Paige, hey Caylah”

Nathan greeted before standing up and joining the boys’ mischief on the cove. Yes, we were at the beach. It’s been a very long time since I’ve been at the each, actually. The last time I went to the beach was when I was escaping my math teacher two years ago. I was always busy with work I didn’t have time to go to the beach.

“Paige, Caylah, who are you going in with the dance?”

“Our boyfriend”

They answered in unison.

“Dad doesn’t know I’m here, right?”

Paige shook her head and sat down beside me.

“His agents think your dead cause they’ve been searching around England and every house but there isn’t a sign of you. Until now, they’re still searching for you; he said he wouldn’t give up until he finds you”

“Just promise me you wouldn’t tell him. C’mon, let’s join the boys”

Well, there we found Paige and Caylah. Hanna was still in our house talking to Jay in the living room. Nathan and I were in my room still talking about me being in college after summer. I was already enrolled there, Tom paid for my bills and I’m done. All I need is to be there before the third of September and we’re done.

“Why won’t you just study in Abbeydale? That way I can visit you when I go home. Maybe even America”

“That’s not possible Nathan. Tom already paid for the bills I needed to pay and I’m leaving at the third day of September. So, we have nothing to do with that one”

He pecked my lips lightly and stood me up from his lap.

“I’m having a long talk with your brother”

He went out my room and closed the door behind him. I crashed on my bed and screamed at my pillow letting out the stress between Nathan, Hanna, Tom and my dad.

“Stop screaming at your pillow. If your pillow had ears it would’ve gone deaf, you can scream in this house anytime you want”
