*Jay's Pov*

Sandrelly was dropping us off at our hotel and then heading off to her house but stopped me from going up the steps.

"Grab your stuff and then get back in the car." She said.

"Why?" I asked her.

"You've been asked to stay with her and with the Santos family, you can't say no." Said Darren as he hopped in the back of the jeep.

"Alright. I'll be out in a minute."

I collected my stuff and started to exit my room when Kevin, Adam and Antonio came and jumped on my back.

"Ayyy! He's staying with his girlfriend's family!" Cheered Antonio.

"We're not dating." I said and tried walking to the elevator.

"You break her heart, I'll kill you, man." Said Kim.

"Calm down, you lot. Let the guy go." Said Hank and smiled at me.

When I walked out of the hotel, Sandrelly was blasting music and singing at the top of her lungs with Abi, Darren and Harvey in the back. I sat next to her in the passenger seat after dumping my bag in the boot and smiled at her before she nudged me to sing.

"So shut up and dance with me!" I shouted with the others.

"Don't you dare look back, just keep your eyes on me!" Sung Sandrelly as she looked at me.

"Keep your eyes on the road, Sandrelly."

"You scared of my driving?"

"Not at all. I just don't want to lose you."

"Aww. Cut it out, lovebirds."

"Pick a song, Halstead." Said Sandrelly.

"Nothing depressing." Said Abi.

"How about, this one?" I said as I pressed on the song.

In a matter of seconds, we all had our hands in the arms, singing to the song, apart from Sandrelly of course.

"Running down to the riptide! Taken away from the dark side!" Shouted Darren.

"I wanne be your left hand man!" I shouted.

"I love you, when you're singing that your song." Shouted Sandrelly.

"I got a lump in my throat 'cause!" Shouted Harvey.

"Alright, X Factor, cool it yeah?" Said Pops as we pulled up.

"Sandrelly, you are working. No time for surfing."

"C'mon Pops. Have you seen the waves?" Whined Darren.

"Yeah. The waves. Give her an hour." Said Abi.

"Jay, if you join in on this, I'll kick you out of my house. I don't care if my wife invited you."

"Yes, Sir." I said.

"Oh, what a gentleman. Grab your bags, Jay. Sandrelly will show you around." Said Helena as she walked up to Roberto and patted him on the arm.

"I need her to work."

"Give her an hour to surf and show Jay around and then she will work. It's q-"

"Don't say that word!" Shouted Sandrelly and her father to cut Helena off.

"Yep. Sorry. Enjoy Sandrelly."

I've seen the house before but it was dark. In the light, it's a beauty. The vibe inside was like a beach house. The wood surroundings the house was white and was hiding the brick work. The kitchen was white and cyan. The island was a marble top and the sofa was a nice grey colour.
