Emily's POV:

I woke up to my mums screeching downstairs. Remind me why she is waking me up at 8am in the middle of the holidays, oh yeah I'm moving in with Alfie today.

Ever since Alfie moved out I've been miserable, Alfie and I had a great relationship and he even let me in some of his youtube videos but Poppy, she's a different story, I do not get along with her AT ALL. But anyway I don't really care.

My life is way more crazy than an average 17 year olds life. My brother is the youtube star Alfie Deyes. This has its good and bad times like I get to meet heaps of other youtubers like Zoella, Casper Lee, Marcus Butler and heaps of other people that treat me like their own little sister which sucks because that means I've got I don't know how many older siblings being really over protective. But it also means I get used a lot just to get to my brother. I've only got friends who stuck by me before he became well known which is only two people; Amy and Cole.

I've been best friends with Cole since I can remember and we met Amy in primary school. We've stuck like glue ever since. Leaving them to go live in the city will be one of the hardest things. Obviously its only a train ride but I have to move schools aswell which will be horrible but still I hope I live.

I run down the stairs and into the kitchen to see mum making chocolate chip pancakes mmmmmm. I hop onto the bar stool and lean my face on the cold island bench. "Morning" I mumble. Me and mum haven't had the best relationship but we still get along.

I'm basically your definition of a tom boy. I actually do not own a skirt and only wear dresses if I really have to. I'd say that's an accomplishment but girls and women like my mum feel the need to change the way I dress, ain't gonna happen any time soon. I'd consider Alfie and Casper (his flatmate) lucky cause they don't need to live with a girly girly but some one awesome like me.

My mum replies with a chirpy good-morning and slides the plate of pancakes towards me. "So are you all packed" my mum asks. I nod and continue stuffing my face with pancakes. As I said before today is the day I'm moving in with Alfie and Casper, they promised me as soon as they get settled in I can move in with them. They got settled in 3 months ago but mum being mum insisted waiting until after my birthday which was 2 weeks ago.

I finished off my pancakes and ran up the stairs. After my shower I chucked on black leggings and a black and white start t-shirt. I quickly brushed my teeth and hair and finished packing anything that was left.

After I finished I grabbed my two suitcases (hey who said a tomboy couldn't have a lot of clothes) and had a lot of looked around my bare room. After I had my last look at my room I dragged the suitcases down the stairs and sat them near the door. Because I had heaps of stuff to carry mum was going to drop me off at Alfies instead of me taking the train in from our place in Brighton.

Mum was taking ages so I decided to pull out my phone and go on twitter. Being a Deyes also ment that fans of my brothers were also following me so I have just over 12k followers and heaps of people asking me to follow them which can sometimes get annoying.

Mum finally came out of her room and I locked my phone and headed to the door. I looked around the house that I've lived in for as long as I can remember, It is filled with so many of my happy childhood memories. I grab my bags and head out the door. I chuck my bags in the boot and buckle into the passenger seat. as doing this I pull my earphones and ipod out of my pocket start playing 18 months by Calvin Harris on shuffle.

After the hour and a half drive to London mum parks out the front of Alfie's condo. I've been a few times but not for ages. Last time I went the barely had any furniture so it was a while back. I jump out of the car fish my bags out of the boot. Seeing me running into the building you would think that I miss my brother heaps and you would be exactly right. As much as I hate to say it I miss getting woken up by him and his smartass comments because after all he is my big brother.

After waiting for mum I start pressing the up button for the lift ferociously until I here the ding tell me that its on our level. With struggle I drag all my bags into the lift with me followed by mum. I punch the button saying 14 and the lift starts moving up towards their level.

As soon as the lift opened I ran out like a mad women leaving my bags with mum. once I reached their door I knocked and Casper answered. "Casper!" I yell giving him a bone crushing hug, Casper out of all of Alfie friends I find that I like him best. "Emily" he tries to yell but because of my suffocating him it sounds more like a squeak. I let go and look over his shoulder to see the one and only Alfie Deyes. Forgetting about Casper I run and jump into Alfie arms. " Geez Em you only saw me what 2 weeks ago and I get a welcome like this wow how much did you miss me?" "More than you can think." I mumble into his chest. He just laughs at my answer.

By the time we let go of eachother mum has walked in with all my bags. She gives Alfie a kiss on the Cheek and he shows me to the guest bedroom soon to be mine. I look around, its not too small but its still a bit smaller than my one at home. I drag all my bags in and sit down on my bed, Alfie smirks and leans against the door frame. " So how do you like your room?" he asks. I nod my head "I could get used to this" I say back.

Mum ends up staying for dinner. Soon after just before she leaves she gives me her usual lecture when she leaves me alone somewhere; no alcohol, no boys and no parties except this time she says 'only if Alfie and Casper let you' at the end. Wow she does not know her son then because Alfie basically lets me do anything anyway.

After mum goes we watch TV for a bit then I decide to call it a night. I hadn't really unpacked so I rummaged through my suit case for about 5 minutes trying to find my pj's which I eventually did and I hopped into bed.

This is a great start to my new life in London.
