I am back from the dead.
Missed you guys ❤️

————————————————
You're Amelia's niece. Your mother is Nancy Shepherd (unfortunately) and as a result you don't get to see Amelia often. You hate this because Amelia is the only cool one in your family. She gets you. The others don't. You're the epitome of teenage angst, just like Amelia was. You think of yourself as a black sheep.

Finally it's thanksgiving. You're not particularly excited for the holiday you're just excited for the family get-together so you and Amelia can go hang out in the kitchen eating the ice cream from the tub before the others get a look in. As sad as it sounds, the highlight of your year is when you get to spend time with the one person who understands you.

The drive to your grandmothers house isn't a long one because your mother liked to be local at all times. You often thought of her as a suck up in that respect. You're the first ones to arrive. It was going to be a weird one this year without your uncle. He was pretty chill, but he couldn't understand you either.

Agonising hours pass and there's still no sign of Amelia. Everyone has already started to eat. She's... not coming?... Maybe she just got held up at the hospital? She wouldn't leave you... right? She knows how much you need her at these things... But it's not like she could get the wrong day... it's a national holiday...

You decided to text her.

Y/N: Hey Amelia where are you?

Amelia: Decided to skip it this year kiddo. I'll still FaceTime though?

Y/N: You're kidding.

Amelia: Didn't fancy the discussion over my recent breakup.

Y/N: They're too busy discussing my weight anyway so thanks for that.

You're annoyed. Not at her. You can't exactly blame her for not wanting to be here. Just the situation. That's when Amelia texts back.

Amelia: Ok I'm coming to save you.

What on Earth is she planning...

She shows up half an hour later with a man you've never seen before? You freeze when you open the door.

"Um... Amelia? What are you doing?" You're happy to see her but God are you scared about what crazy plan she's about to act on.

"This is OWEN" she says loudly for the family in the dining room to hear.

You knew damn well this man was not her ex boyfriend Owen. You'd seen the real Owen on FaceTime with Amelia. You frown at her and look the man up and down, giving a slight look of distaste.

"Hey be nice!" Amelia swats you. You scowl at her.

"Explain." You stare at her.

"So this is my friend from work... link..." she whispers so the others can't hear.

You raise an eyebrow. "Your NAME is link?" You say incredulously.

"Yep. Well... my real names Atticus Lincoln but-"

You snicker. "Gay ass-"

Amelia swats you again but you manoeuvre her gesture into a hug. "I'm glad you showed"

"Let's brave the interrogators" she grimaces.

It's not long before you two leave fake Owen / Link in the dining room with the others, letting him get picked apart by the vultures. You and Amelia head to the kitchen.
