"COME ON LEAH! IT'S NEW YEARS EVE THERE IS NO WAY YOU'RE NOT DRINKING!" Olly yells over to me from across the bar as the barman takes his order, "Fineeeee," I whine, "Only one though," I add immediately.

Olly hands the money over to the barman and says, "Vodka and coke for my sister over there...make it strong," he laughs as I roll my eyes.

Olly walks back over to me, handing me my vodka and coke, "Thanks," I say to him, a sour expression on my face as I smell the strength of alcohol in my drink; don't get me wrong, I like to drink but tonight I prefer the thought of a non alcoholic drink, just plain coke or something. Trust me, I know how to have a good time WITHOUT the need of alcohol.

Olly sits on the chair next to Issy, resting his arm on her shoulder as Alex wraps his arm around my waist, my head resting on his shoulder.

We are out celebrating New Years Eve together; it's only Alex, Olly, Issy and I that have gone out. Faye and James just wanted a quiet New Years with Louie and Mom and Dad aren't really party people; they've flown to New York to celebrate in the city and watch the ball drop.

Olly and Issy weren't sure what they wanted to do for New Year, Alex and I already had planned to come to this club and I couldn't imagine not seeing in the New Year without my big brother with me so we managed to convince Olly and Issy to come with us.

I don't really know what it is that Olly and I have, it's the strongest sibling bond I've ever known, I'm not sure if it's because of the way we were brought together, the things we both went through when I first joined the family or even just how similar our personalities are.

We spend nearly every day together; it's been the same since that day I escaped from Nathan. I remember that as if it was yesterday.

"IT'S OUR JAMMMM!" I scream at Olly, my hands flying in the air as I hear the song 'Timewarp' begin from the DJ's set.

Alex and Issy look at each other in confusion, "PLEASE SAY YOU KNOW THIS?!" Olly yells at both of them, jumping from his chair as I jump from mine. Issy and Alex both shake their heads at us, "THEY'RE LEARNING TONIGHT!" I yell as Olly grins, he grabs Issy's hand and pulls her up to the dance floor as I do the same with Alex.

We all take our places on the empty dance floor, standing in a line of four. By the time we're in position, the chorus has already started....mine and Olly's favourite bit. Olly and I follow the instructions from the song as Alex and Issy copy.

'It's just a jump to the left'

'And then a step to the right'

'Put your hands on your hips'

'You bring your knees in tight'

I put my hands on my hips, bringing my knees together, watching Alex to make sure he hasn't given up on the dance already.

'But it's the pelvic thrust'

'That really drives you insane.'

I grind my hips around in a circle, following the instructions of the music, making sure Alex is doing the same; he suddenly stops and just stands there watching me. I immediately stop what I'm doing and cover my face as Alex bites his lip...I know exactly what he's thinking. Alex realises what he's doing and looks at me, bursting into laughter as he starts dancing again.

Once the song finishes, we all burst into laughter at how ridiculous the dance is and begin to leave the dance floor when suddenly everyone that was once sitting down, charges towards us, running to the dance floor.
