Laura's POV (Yes, it's Laura telling the story)

Where was Alli and Nathan? They should have been back from two hours ago. She texted me that they were on their way home and that they had an... interesting date. She was gonna tell me later. I was sitting in my hotel suite with everyone, preparing for a movie.

"Where's the popcorn?" Tom asked Gaby who was in the small kitchenette popping about seven bowls. Hey, it was a large crowd.

"I'm coming. Relax!" Gaby retorted and went back to the kitchen with Siva.

I was sitting, actually, curled up next to my amazing husband Aaron. Everyone was basically all cozied up with eachother. The couch and beds were strewn with blankets and pillows. Wait. Back to the point. Alli promised that she and Nathan would be back to watch the movie with us. It was GI Joe: Retalliation. Yup, the new GI Joe. There was a knock on the door. Oh, maybe it was Alli. Finally they were here!

"I'll get it!" called Chloe and she got up from her cozy spot next to Nico to answer the door. She opened it and her eyes nearly bugged out of her head. I was shocked as well. Acutally, I think all the girls in the room had their mouths hanging open, much to their boyfriends' dislike. There, with a blue v neck shirt and that amazingly perfect brown hair, stood Alli's brother. It was Anton.

Alli's POV

I can;t believe my phone just died! I just charged it that morning!

"Hey, Nath. Can you text the guys?" I asked, desperate to get out of that car.

"Hee, hee. One problem. I dropped my phone today before our date and it is broken. I was planning to get a new one tommorow." He smiled, emabarrassed. Oh great. I rolled my eyes. YOu have got to be kidding me.

"Wait. Do you have your charger in here?" I asked, hopeful. He shook his head.

"I might have left it at the hotel room. I usually don;t charge my phone in my car. I just jam out to music." Nath hung his head. Perfect! (note the sarcasm.) Great, we were stuck in the middle of nowhere without phones or any way to contact anyone. The last text I sent was to Laura saying we were on our way back. It has been two hours! I promised that i would watch the movie with them. I might have forgot to mention that I also invited my brother. Yeah, well their in for a mighty good surprise. If i do say so myself, my brother was good looking. (I never said that). I zoned out, thinking about the past. I remember when we were still in high school, Chloe ahd the biggest crush on him. SHe was always talking about his "Stunning blue eyes!" or his "Perfect flipped hair!" yeah. She got over that when he left for military school. It wouldn't have happened any way. He thought of her like a little sister. She was my best friend after all. But ever since he got back, girls couldn;t stop looking at him. He couldn;t even walk on the street without someone looking. It got annoying.
