Samuel's POV

I listen tentatively as Caroline's song plays on the radio, I wait until the end and gasp.

- Wow...that was beautiful. - I say in astonishment.

- Thanks. - smiles Caroline.

What do I say? Should I tell her? I mean, it would be the right thing to do, but if I tell her about Landon, what if she thinks I like her. She's nice, good to talk to, really pretty, but she's my stepsister, she would probably think I'm a creep.

- So, later tonight, I'll organize the party, I won't invite Caitlyn or her friends, it'll be fairly quiet. You don't have a problem with drinking do you?- I say, breaking the silent.

- Okay...drinking? - Replies Caroline.

- Yeah, come on, your 18 year old step brother is throwing a party and you didn't think there would be alcohol? - I chuckle.

- I don't know, I've never really drunk before. - says Caroline quietly.

- You don't have to, but I will be, so will others. But if you do drink I'm going to look out for you and make sure nothing happens. - I reply.

- I guess I might have a little bit. Thanks for looking after me since I've been here. - she replies smiling.

- It's alright. - I say, placing my hand on her shoulder. Caroline smiles and looks away, there's something bothering her but she won't tell me.

- Anyway, I'm going for a swim, I stink. - I laugh, walking out of her room and throwing my shirt on the floor.

Caroline's POV

When he walked out from my room I touched the spot where he touched me and smiled. What the hell am I doing? Am I really drooling over him? He is my step brother for god sake. He wants easy. I am not easy.

I walked to my wardrobe. Party. Alcohol. Landon. Him. I sighed. I need new clothes.
The only solution right now is drink. Yeah I will drink some alcohol and after maybe I won't be this shy, serious and virgin like girl. That's the plan for tomorrow.

I should be happy that my first song went alive today, but I am so alone. Samuel is the only one who knows now. If anyone will finds out...

Oh God! I wasn't thinking about that. What if someone recognize my voice?

I need a shower. I quickly went to shower and don't bother to dress up just started to run to my room when Samuel came out from his room and started to shout.

- Caroline! I hope Xander will be home soon I am... - Yeah he recognized me standing there almost naked. Great. His eyes roaming around at my body. What is he doing? Checking me out?

- Ugh. Samuel. Turn.

- Sorry. - he mumbled something else too I just didn't know what. I quickly run into my room and dress up. Just a simple shirt and a sweat pants. No socks. Then I realized I need bra because you know I am in a house with two boys really. Ugh. Sport bra.

- Hey guys! I am home! - I heard Xander shut the door. I run out to the kitchen. I was hungry.

- What did you bring? - I ask him.

- You skipped school you don't get any.- My face fall.

- Yeah. All right then I'll go and buy something for myself then. - I tell him.

- Bro. Don't tease her. - I can feel Samuel arm on my shoulder and I blushed. Xander was watching us.

- I brought Chinese. - he chimes.

- That's good. - we quickly sort out our food and sit down on a sofa so we could watch tv. Of course we were watching a music chanel. - can we watch a movie? - I asked them. Samuel eyes got all wide.

- Yeah sure. - the guys choose something and we watched it. I really like being with them. Hope they feel the same.

School was all right next day. So when I got home I felt better. No Caitlyn today. I smiled.
The guys started to rearrange the whole living room so I went to my room and started to get ready for the party.

Samuel's POV

- Okay, what's left? - I mumble, thinking of the list of things I had to have ready, alcohol check, food check, speakers check, anything breakable out away check, now everyone can turn up.

Caroline's still getting ready, no doubt to try and impress Landon. I knock on her door.

- Everything's ready, people will be here soon, make sure you lock your door once you come out. - I call out.

Got it. - shouts Caroline in reply.

I walk to the lounge room and sit down on the couch next the Xander.

-Is it all ready? - He asks, I nod.

- All done. - I reply.

- How many people are coming? - Asks Xander.

- I invited about 20, but that doesn't mean there won't be more. 1 I answer. Xander nods, just as the door is knocked on.
