Sam's POV

I woke up but didn't open my eyes. I was so comfy. I rolled over to spread across my bed to find myself falling. I made a squeaking noise when I hit the ground. My eyes shot open to find myself in between the sofa and table in the quiet room. Why am I in here?

I sat up and suddenly everything hit me. The letter from Scott. The letter from Nathan. Still doesn't explain me being in here. The last I remember was reading Nathan's letter. I slowly stood up as a head rush suddenly hit.

As I sat on the sofa the door opened. Mike's head appeared. I smiled at him.
"Sam" he started coming into the room, "you gave us all a scare".
"What happened?" I asked still a bit spaced.
"You finished reading a letter and then passed out in the living room doorway" he explained. I then remember walking to the living room and then waking up.
I nodded but before I said anything Mike said, "do you remember why you fainted?".

I nodded and then my hands went to my pockets. Empty.
"Do you know where my letters are?" I asked checking all my pockets.
"No. Why?".
"They were the reason".
"Who were they from?".
"Um.... Scott and err..."
"Who?".
"My brother, Nathan".

He sat there shocked before saying, "I'll make you a cup of tea. You stay right here" he said before walking out.

Mike's POV

I walked out the quiet room and to the kitchen.
"She awake yet?" Gina said sitting at the table with a magazine.
"Yes" I said filling the kettle and heating it up.
"Well, do you know why she fainted?" She getting up and walking up to me.
"She got a letter from Scott..." I trailed off.
"Oh"
"And Nathan"
"Who?"
"Her brother"
"What?" She exclaimed shocked. I shushed her and got a cup out the cupboard.

"He's contacted her and she's pretty shaken up" I finished making the tea. I signalled for her come along. I glanced in the living room on the way. It was pretty lively but Rick was sat on the sofa with a weird expression on his face. We made it to the quiet room and went inside.

Sam's POV

I sat in with my eyes closed until I heard the door open. They sprung open and in walked Mike and Gina. Gina sat on the sofa giving me a soft smile while Mike passed me the cup of tea. I crossed my legs and let the warmth of the cup travel from my fingers around my body.

"Would you like to talk about it?" Mike asked. I nodded and took a deep breath.

"How did Scoot get permission to contact me?".
"Didn't he say why?" Gina asked.
"Not really. Just that he was sorry and he knows his behaviour was wrong". I took a sip my tea. The warm liquid helped me calm down.
"Do you have the letter" I shook my head no.
"I think I dropped it".
"We'll find it later" Mike said, "what about Nathan, what did he say?".
"That he wants to contact me" I said looking down, "he wrote his number on the letter. He said he found me because of the painting I did in London".

"Well he would. It was all over the news" Gina added. I nodded and carried on drinking my tea.

"So do you want to contact him?" Mike asked. I shrugged as a drank. I moved the cup away from my lips and said, "I'll think about it". They nodded and both stood up.
"We'll leave you in peace" Mike said and outstretched his hand to take the cup which is empty. I handed it him and they left me in peace.

Should I contact him?
He does care about me and he was thinking about me.
What if he's not him and is a imposter?
They're so many doubts and worries but he is brother. They only caring family I have, the only family I have.

I let out a sigh and got up. I need to find the letters. I walked out the quiet and I walked into the living room to find everyone talking, playing pool and watching tv.

"SAM!" a voice shrieked. Before I knew who it was someone had tackled me into a hug. I knew by the dark hair and pink headband it was Carmen.
"Your ok" she said letting go.
"Yep" I answered getting hugged by Tee.
"Why you scare us?" Harry said pulling a face. I kneeled down and hugged him.
"I'm sorry". After a few more hugs and pats on the shoulder I was released.

"Has anyone picked up my letters?" I asked. Everyone shook their heads but Rick stood up and reached into his pocket.
"Here ya go" he said walking over to me and passing them to me.
"You didn't read the other letter right?" I asked scared.
"No". I let a breath of air. I nodded to turn around but he said, "where's my hug?".
I rolled my eyes and turned around and hugged him. We hugged longer than I hugged everyone else but not to long. I then let go and I turned around and left the room.

But on the way out I did see Tee and Tyler smirk at us.
