It was a 12 hour flight. "Ugh this flight is so long" emily complained "I know but where almost there" I said "we have 2 hours left" emily looked at me "you know this flight isn't that bad as long as I'm with you" she smiled, I smiled back Emily laid her head on me then fell asleep. Once we got there, there was a limo waiting for us "we're here for you?" Asked the driver "what okay?" I said confused then he opened the doors we looked at each other then hopped in. He brought us to a beautiful white house with 3 stories. "Woah who's house is this?" We asked "this is your fathers" said the driver then he dove off. "Oh no" I said looking at my phone "what?" Asked Emily "jaz ia calling I forgot to tell her I left with you" I said "what!?" Said Emily "you didn't tell her!?" Yelled Emily "no I guess I forgot" I said shrugging my shoulders "answer it!" Yelled Emily "fine, fine I will" I said then I answered the phone. "Hello" I said calmly "Millie where are you!." Yelled jaz "I'm sorry I forgot to tell you" I said "tell me what?!" Jaz yelled "we found a clue at the lake, it was two tickets to Jazmin island" I said "You're in Jazmin island?!" "Yeah they brought us to this house they said it's mine" I said "what!? I'm coming now!" Jaz said then Hung up.

Once we got inside there was someone waiting for us. It was a boy around our age "hello" the boy said "um hi" I answered "what are you doing here?" Asked Emily "my dad works here so I live here" the boy had brown curly hair with bright green eyes. He was wearing a black hoodie with white jeans. "Oh sorry I'm Max'' said the boy as he stuck out his Hand. I shook his hand then replied "I'm Millie and this is Emily" I said pointing to Emily. "That a pretty name" max paused "Millie" he continued I smiled "thanks I like your name to" I said max blushed. Emily looked from max then to me. Her eyes filled with jealousy Until she said "we should probably get to sleep, we have had a long day" Emily smiled nervously. "Right um this way" max led us to our room. When we walked in there were two twin sized beds and a desk. "If you guys like I can show you"-Emily cut him off "we're fine thank you" Emily grabbed my hand then stepped back max nodded then left. I stepped back "What's your problem!?" I asked Emily "why are you being a jerk to him" I asked Emily stared at me with tears in her eyes then left the room. I ran after her but she slammed the door behind her. I stared at the door confused. "What's her problem?" I said out loud. About an hour later I heard a knock on my door. "Max?" I said max opened the door "Emily's crying in the bathroom, she's been locked in there for an hour now" he said "oh my god I don't even know why she's mad" I said as I walked past him to the bathroom. I knocked on the door "Emily open up"I said "fine" she said Emily opened the door her eyes were as red as a tomato you could tell she's been crying. "Why are you crying?" I asked "let's just eat lunch okay" she said I nodded. We walked down stairs to see Max sitting at the table with another boy around jaz's age. "Nice of you to finally join us," Grayson said. I smiled "this is my brother Grayson," Max said, pointing to Grayson. "Hi im Grayson" "nice to meet you Greyson me and Emily said "we'll should we get eating?l asked Max "sure I'm hungry," Grayson said.

After dinner I was putting my plate in the sink when max came In "Can you help in the meat freezer?" asked max "sure" I said as I followed him. We walked into the freezer "so what do you need help with?" I asked "I need help lifting this pallet" max replied I nodded. I walked over to the pallet as the door slammed behind me. I jumped as I turned around. I ran to the door and tried to open it "it's locked!" I said looking at max "what!" Max ran to the door and tried to open it but I wouldn't budge. I panicked and so did max but after a while we stopped. I walked over and stood in front of the wall. Max walked over to me "you know after a while it's not that bad" max said as I looked up at him I never realized how tall he was. "Yeah it's pretty peaceful" I replied joyfully max took two steps closer we were inches apart. "You look very pretty today," he complimented me. "Thanks," I said chivering "are you okay?" He asked "yeah I'm just really cold" I said he looked at me then learned forward and hugged me, I hugged him back. We stood there for a good minute before I pulled back as I looked down "what's the matter" he asked as he lifted my chin to face him out faces where inched apart "I just worried about em" I said looking into his bright green eyes "I know what will help take your mind off of her'' he said softly "what?" I asked softly, he leaned in and kissed me. I wanted to pull back but I didn't. I kissed him back. I pulled back the slightest bit "I hear breathing" I said softly he turned his head away to the door then came back "I think we're alone" he said he leaned in but I pulled away "no we're not alone" I said. I slipped away and walked to the door I peaked out the window it was Grayson he was looking at me I turned away to max "there someone looking at me" I said max walked over he looked out the window then grabbed my hand and pulled me to the wall next to the door I looked at him and took a breath, "grayson " he said quietly. I heard the door unlocking. A head peaked through "grayson." Max softly as he pulled away from my hand.

"it's not what it looks like" he said as he looked from me to him. "It looked like you got yourself locked in the meat freezer" said Grayson "yes! That's what happend" max said in a relief "the you decided to Kiss" grayson mumbled max head looked up at max. Grayson chuckled then he walked towards me "I don't know your intentions with my brother but you better be careful" he whispered in my ear as he hugged me "I'm gryson and you are" grayson said out loud "I'm Millie" I said back "I should get going" I said as I walked as fast as I could to my room. When I walked in I saw Emily sitting on her bed "hey Em, Are you okay?" I asked "yeah I'm fine" said Emily walked over and hugged her "good, now come on it's time to go to sleep I said as I got in my bed Emily nodded then went to sleep. I stayed up all night as my mind filled with thoughts. What just happened with me and max? Do I like him? "Millie wake up" I felt arms on my shoulders. I opened my eyes to see Emily looking at me. "Time to get up" said Emily "oh okay" I said as I got up "it's time for breakfast" Emily said as she walked to the door. "Okay, let me get dressed," I said. After I followed her out the door. At the table I sat down to see Grayson and Max sitting across from me Emily sat next to me. "Nice to see you again, you look lovely today" Max smiled. I smiled back. "Thanks" I replied Emily looked at me then max . "You know what I've had enough" Emily said glaring at Grayson.

"Enough of what" Grayson smiled "your alway flirting with Emily why!" She yelled "there no need to yell" grayson said but Emily cut him off "shut up" said Emily then turned to max. "What is the problem?" Max said "my problem is that you're flirting with my best friend and I don't like it!" Max looked at me then Emily "oh then why did she Kiss me?" Max said the room went silent. Emily turned to me "what is he talking about?" Asked Emily max looked at me "tell her" he said I choked until I finally said "I don't know" I said gryson turned to me "your lying I saw you kissing max in the meat freezer" said Grayson Emily looked at me with tears in her eyes "millie you promised you wouldn't leave me for a boy your promised!?" Emily said "I'm sorry I know I promised but we're just friends and we always I'll be" I said as tears ran down her face. Emily went silent. She was hurt but why? "you're not sorry!" Emily yelled and I stood up and so did she."why are you so upset where friends why can't i date anyone"-"because i like you" Emily blurred out. The inter room was silent max and Grayson looked at each other. "What" I said softly "you l-like me?" I asked softly, stepping closer to her "yes I do I always have" Emily said "I'm sorry but I don't like you back" i said as i took a step back. Then she slapped me and I fell to the floor. Max and Grayson stood up as max ran to me and Grayson ran to Emily. Max helped me up "what is wrong with you?!" Grayson yelled at Emily "don't you dare put your hands on her!" Max yelled as he pushed her away. "Okay she doesn't feel the same but that doesn't give you the right to put your hands on her!" Grayson yelled "I mean he's right I don't feel the same but that's okay" I said Emily looked at me with embarrassment in her eyes. Her face turned "Millie you don't mean that" Emily said tears filling her eyes "I do Emily I'm sorry but it's the truth" i said as I stepped closer I reached out for Emily's hand but she backed up "don't touch me!" She shouted as "Emily please"-"no just leave me alone!" She ran off.
