As soon as we got back to the beach house, I took a quick shower and freshened up. I changed into a different outfit, keeping the same hairstyle I wore for the fundraiser, grabbed my phone and went to join the celebrations. 

Dad arrived at the beach house a couple minutes after Mum had dropped me off earlier, so I didn't see him till I was on stage

Dad arrived at the beach house a couple minutes after Mum had dropped me off earlier, so I didn't see him till I was on stage. 

I rounded into the kitchen to see Jeremiah, Belly and Conrad. Jeremiah noticed me first and cheered.

"Oh, here she comes. The pop star, the new singing, dancing sensation," He said like an announcer, "It's Abigail Allegro!" he dragged out my name. 

I laughed shaking my head, "you're so stupid." 

"You, were so good, Abby," Belly complimented as I sat next to Jeremiah on a stool at the breakfast bar. 

"Thanks, did it look okay? I hope I didn't mess up, it's all kind of a blur."

"You were perfect," Conrad said with smile. 

"Thanks Con," I said returning the smile. His smile makes me so weak in the knees that I had to avoid his eyes as I performed, fearing they'd give out. Tearing my gaze from his, I looked at the alcohol and blenders. "What are you making?"

"Pomegranate margaritas," answered Belly.

"With your Dad's good blender?" I questioned to the brothers. "Brave."

"You want some?" Belly asked me.

"She doesn't drink," Conrad answered for me.

"Still?" Jeremiah asked in disbelief. "You don't feel left out?"

I rubbed my chin with my thumb and index finger pretending to think, "Hmm, do I feel left out when I see people drink to the point of not knowing how to walk or talk, speak with no filter, forget the night before, and wake up with a pounding headache to then drink some nasty concoction to remove the hangover? Nope, I'll stick with my Fanta orange."

They chuckled and Conrad started the blender. He joked around, removing his hands from the top.

"No, keep you hands on it," Jeremiah laughed.
