"IM HOME" i shouted as i put my bag down by the door, "am's, could you come here for a minute please?" i heard my mum call, i made my way to the living room, where i find both my parents sitting on the 2 seater sofa, "whats up?" i ask my parents, while sitting on the arm of the one seater sofa, "so.. you know how your mum's family are South African.." my dad starts, "yeah?" i say, confused, "well me and your mum have been speaking to one of your cousins, he lives in london, and we were wondering if you wanted to stay with him for a bit, you can always come back if you don't like it there" my dad finishes, "sure, why not, but wait.. who is he? i don't wanna go stay with someone i don't know" i laugh, "oh you definitely know him ami" my dad chuckles..
"what do you mean?" i give my parents a confused look, "his name is josh.. josh pieters" my mum finishes, "come again?" my mouth drops, THE Josh pieters is my cousin? SORRY WHAT?, "we knew you would be excited" my parents laugh, "w-when do i go?" i stutter, trying to contain my excitement, "you leave on Tuesday" my mum smiles, Wow.. 2 days & i meet one of my all time favourite youtubers.. who turns out to LITERALLY be my cousin... someone is definitely watching over me up there, "you can go do whatever now, to process everything" my parents chuckle, wow this is gonna be the best thing ever.

I smiled, a fresh start is just what i needed, so I decided to text josh, seeing where they were,
ᴀᴍɪ: hey josh, where abouts are you? x❤️
ᴊᴏsʜ💕: just walking into the entrance x💙
ᴀᴍɪ: okay, see you soon x❤️ 𝑅𝑒𝑎𝑑 11:02
i looked up from my phone & smiled, Standing there was Josh Pieters & Jack Maynard, i grabbed my bags & walked over to them, "hey, ami" They both smiled at me, "hey, guys" i smiled back, "here, let us take them" Josh smiled as he & jack took my bags, "you sure?" I smirked, "of course" we smiled at each other, the whole car journey i was daydreaming about how my new life would be..

as we walked into the apartment, i squealed with joy, it was amazing in here, "Conor will be back at about 4 so until then, let me show you your room", josh smiled showing me towards my room, as he opened the door my jaw dropped, "is this okay?" he asked me, "okay? josh this is perfect, thank you so much" i hugged him, he hugged me back smiling, "right, I'll leave you to get settled in then we'll talk about homeschooling" he smiled leaving my room, I've been homeschooled for 5 years now, I'd gotten bullied at my old school, so my parents decided to take me out of school.

i got bored & my phone was on charge, so I decided to go see what josh & jack were up to, I couldn't find jack anywhere, until i came across josh watching tv in the living room, "wheres jack gone?" I asked josh confused, "oh, he's gone to joe's to film a video with him & Mikey" josh grinned, "oh cool, what you watching?" i asked my cousin, "nothing really" he smirked, "oh also, all the boys are going to joe's house tonight, did you wanna come?" josh asked me, "course, gives me a chance to get to know everyone" i smiled, sitting next to josh on the sofa with my lemonade, "is it just the boys going?" i asked josh, "i think Oli is bringing his younger brother james, he's 14" josh replied, "oh yeah, I've seen him on some of Oli's videos before" i smiled.
