Chapter 4

I can't believe that he heard me. I didn't even know that I had made any noise and now the whole family knows. I can't ever face them again. I think I might just leave a message Mrs Burke and tell her that I won't be able to come in today.

I go to reach for the phone when there is a knock on the door.

"Lianna! Could you get that?!" My mum shouts from the kitchen.

"Lianna! Door!" My dad shouts from his place in front of the TV.

I love how I am up in my bedroom and the rest of my family are down stares, yet they still expect me to answer the door. I swear they think that I am their slave sometimes.

There is another knock at the door and my family calls out to me again.

"Ok, ok! I'm coming!" I yell and stomp down the stairs letting them know that I am angry at them.

I sigh as I open the door.

I suck in my breath as I see Veronica, Missy, Brittany and Tori, stood in the doorway. I groan thinking that they are going to talk about last night or have a go at me for having an argument with their brother.

"Listen-"I start but Missy cuts me off.

"Where sorry about our brother, he can be an absolute twat sometimes." I can't help myself when I grin at what Missy just said.

"Well, I'm sorry for ruining your first night here." I apologise, blushing at the thought of what went down last night.

"Like Missy said, it was our brother who was in the wrong last night, and don't worry he got a sock in the ear last night from our grandma." Tori pipes up.

"So to make it up to you for our brother being a total doosh, we decided to have a girl's day out. So get dressed because we are going to a spa, then on a shopping spree!" Tori squeals and you can tell that she is really excited by how she bounces up and down.

"I'm sorry I can't, but I hope you enjoy yourselves." I go to close the door but Brittany puts her foot in the way.

"Why?" She asks simply, staring me in the eye, like she is trying to look into my mind.

"Uh, well... uhm, I've got to sort all of the animals out for Mrs Burke-"Veronica cuts me off.

"We've already spoken to grandma, and she says that it is fine." She says, sharing a smug look with her sisters.

"Ok, but uh, I haven't got any money-"Veronica cuts me off once again.

"We'll pay; it's our treat for the way our brother treated you last night." Tori says with an apologetic smile on her face.

"But-"Seriously, will these girls not let me finish a full sentence?!

"Shh, it doesn't matter what excuse you come up with; you are coming with us. Even if we have to strap you to a wheel chair and push you everywhere on it." Missy says, and I can tell by the glint in her eyes that she means it.

"Listen, I'm not into all of that girly stuff." I say because I really don't want to go and just the thought of trying on dresses and spending a day in the spa just makes my skin crawl; I would rather muck out the horses then do any girly stuff.

"I don't care. And you never know, you might actually like getting your nails done and buying new clothes." Brittany says with a bright smile on her face.

"I highly doubt that." I mutter to myself.

"That's it." Missy and Veronica say at the same time as they look at each other.
