• Chapter 8: Dealing with the consequences

Sam's POV

"You kids are lucky that the police were there because if they weren't then you could have been seriously hurt. Incredibly lucky" Mike said to us as we sat on the sofa by the stairs.

He had been pacing back and forth in front of us for about 20 minutes. He's lectured us on being irresponsible, buying games from random strangers and about being lectured by the police. I zoned out about 5 minutes in. Right now I was daydreaming that Olivia was being arrested instead of the two big guys from earlier.

I got knocked out of my daydream by Tyler.
"what?" I asked him. He pointed at Mike. I looked up to see Mike glaring at me. I smiled at him as sweetly as I could.

"Sam you were in charge of these two hooligans and they get in trouble. You are as to blame as them" he said in calm voice but you could hear the anger dripping from his tongue. This scared me a little bit.

"You four go to the living room while I talk to Sam" he continued. Harry, Tee, Johnny and Tyler got up and left giving me sympathetic looks. I smiled at them before they left. I looked up at Mike and waited for the yelling to begin.

It never did.

"Sam, I'm not going to yell any more, I've finished that but I do need you to listen" he began. I nodded at him. "I know its been tough recently. Firstly, moving here and then a few months later going to London for that huge opportunity but I've noticed since you've come back" he said while sitting next to me. I lowered my head expecting something bad.

"Maturity".

"Huh?" I asked shocked. Since when am I mature. We just got into trouble with those to big guys. Ha....back to the daydream.

"Even though you got into trouble, from what the police told me, you helped figure out what to do" I smiled at him, "but", damn.

"Your still in trouble for what happened" Just as he said the front door opened and Rick and Olivia cam round the corner.

"You, Tyler and Johnny are on kitchen duty for a week, all meals" he said patting me on the shoulder. He left going into the office.

"Bad luck Sam" Rick said passing me with Olivia. She smirked at me while grabbing Ricks hand. I groaned and got up from the sofa.  I slowly walked down the corridor to the living room and as soon I walked in Tyler and Johnny looked my way like they were saying, 'how bad?'.

"We're on kitchen duty all week, for all meals" I said sighing and sitting down in on the chairs. They groaned while everyone else laughed.

~Skip to 6:30pm~

"thanks Gina"
"It was great"
"It was lovely"

"thanks" Gina said to everyone else as they left the kitchen after eating tea. Me, Tyler and Johnny were still sitting at the table waiting to start our punishment.

"OK you three, I want this place spotless" she said while leaving. We sighed collectively and got work. Within 15 minutes the whole place was clean. We smiled at each other before going our separt ways. I headed to my bedroom to continue the paining of my walls.

Tyler's POV

I said bye to Sam as she headed upstairs to the attic. I was about to open my bedroom door when it flew open and Olivia walked past me and the stairs. I walked in slowly and saw Rick sitting in the window with his guitar.

"what's up with her?" I asked taking my trainers off.
"She's...annoyed" he said.
"about..."

"I seriously don't know" he said putting his guitar down and laying down on his bed.

"Ok, tell me what happened" I said laying down on my bed too.

"Me and Olivia walked through the door to find Mike telling Sam she was on kitchen duty for a week. I said bad luck to Sam as passing her with Olivia. I felt Olivia grab my hand.  We headed upstairs to my room. We hung out till tea and that's when she went weird. We got back up here and started yelling about loyalty and how I was talking to other people while she was there. It was like she was saying that I can't talk to you lot while she's there. Then she said that maybe I should go out with one of girls here instead her before storming out" he said really quickly.

"From what I picked up she mad at you talking to others but I think you needs a girls opinion" I said to him. He nodded before sitting up. He sat for a minute before mumbling something and leaving.

'I have a slight hunch that this has something to do with Sam' I thought, 'oh well'.
