The family pulled up to a rather small house compared to the house they lived in previously though to others in the community would see it as one of the appealing houses in the area.

"Here we are, home sweet home." Kris handed the taxi driver some money and they all hopped out of the cab excited but tired after their 10 hour flight.

"Mum where are we?" Rob questioned, none of us children having a clue where about in the world we were.

"This is Bradford. This is where I grew up. This is my home. Gosh I've missed this place so much, I made so many memories here." She looked around the scenery and made her way to the front door and her three children trailed behind.

A week later and they had settled in to their new home pretty quickly,for once there was no drama and they all had smiles on their faces.

"Guys my best friend still lives across the street you have to meet her, I haven't seen her in years. I bet she has kids too. You lot can make some new friends!" She exclaimed excitedly. All three of the kids rolled their eyes at their mother's enthusiasm. She dragged her family across the street all not amazed one bit. Khloe was shocked her mother even had friends. Kris knocked on the door in a funky little sequence causing Robyn to slightly giggle. The door slowly opened and a pretty middle aged woman stared at Kris with shock. After a few moments of staring they threw their arms around each other squealing. The woman invited them all inside. The house was very small but it felt homely. A nice family home. The woman introduced herself as Trisha Malik, she led them into the living room where four children sat watching TV.

"So this is the troublesome four." Trisha laughed out pointing towards her three daughters and son. The eldest daughter glanced at Robyn staring for a while until she spoke up.

"Oh.My.God. Your Hope! There's a celeb in my house! I need a picture and an autograph!" She screamed out gasping for air. The boy rolled his eyes at his over excited sister causing Robyn to smile.

"So this excited young lady is my eldest daughter Doniya she's 12." Trisha then pointed towards the boy. "This is Zayn he is 11." Zayn smiled in Robyn's direction and Robyn politely smiled back. " Waliyha is 3 and baby Safaa is 3 months old." Trisha spoke out proudly.

"Your kids are beautiful Trish. You've done well." Kris smiled realizing how much she had missed her old school friend. "Well these are my kids this is -" Khloe cut her off.

"I can introduce myself mother" Trisha laughed at her attitude. "I'm Khloe Fenty, the eldest, I'm 12 years old and I'm also the best." Rob started laughing uncontrollably.

"No I think you mean I'm the best. My name is Rob also known as the favourite and I'm 11." All eyes made their way to Robyn and she shuffled on the spot feeling uncomfortable introducing herself.

"Go on Robyn, introduce yourself they won't bite." Kris encouraged.

" I'm Robyn and I'm 10." She quickly looked away feeling very awkward. All the kids sat down together whilst Kris and Trisha had a long catch up with Tea and biscuits.

Doniya, Khloe and Rob were all fighting over the remote control as Doniya was watching Hope and Faith but Khloe and Rob refused to watch more of their sister having enough of it at home. Robyn leant on her elbow her mind drifting off until Zayn poked her in the leg. She quickly looked at him in the corner of her eye and decided to ignore him. He then poked her again and again she continued to ignore his actions. Suddenly he poked her in the weak spot on her side and she tried to squirm away.

"Ticklish I see." Zayn laughed out smiling at her.

"It's not funny." She tried to stay in a serious tone of voice but small chuckles left her lips.

"Fancy playing outside with me?" He asked kindly. She wondered about it but thought why not and followed him out to the backyard.

Robyn was pretty nervous around Zayn at first not knowing what to expect from him but he instantly made her feel welcome and she felt she could be herself around him. The first thing she noticed when they stepped outside was the tree house.

"That is the coolest thing ever. I've never been in one before."

"Go in if you want to." She climbed up Zayn following behind. They sat down and Robyn had a big grin on her face taking in her surroundings. They talked about everything to each other, their families, friends, likes, dislikes and soon enough it was like they had known each other their whole life. Zayn didn't question her once about her celeb lifestyle and that she appreciated.

"I'm going to carve our names in this tree house." Zayn stated which caused Robyn to laugh as it sounded like something a caveman would say. He got a pen and scratched in the wood Zayn + Robyn. They smiled at each other and from that moment on they instantly became best friends.
