Dan's POV

It was nine o'clock when Phil and I finished eating breakfast, and decided to go record a new episode of the sims 4 for our gaming channel. We went into the office and set up our recording equipment while the game loaded. 

"What do you think is in store for Dil and Tabitha today, Dan?" Phil asked me. I finished setting up our mic and turned to him. 

"I don't know, maybe A honeymoon for our newlyweds?" I replied, wiggling my eyebrows. Phil laughed. 

"That's actually a pretty good idea, good job Dan!" Phil said getting in his seat. Forty-five minutes later we were done recording, and the episode was ready to be edited. 

"Hey, Dan! Kat called and wants me to film a collab with her, so I think I'm going to be heading out soon!" Phil called to me from the kitchen to my bedroom. I answered with an okay and went back to browsing through tumblr. All of a sudden the phone rang. 

"I'll get it!" Phil called. I got hungry, so I walked out to the living room to retrieve the bag of crisps I was munching on earlier. 

"Oh my, really? I...I hang on, let me get Dan on the phone," I heard Phil saying. "Dan, you might want to come hear this," Phil said, handing the phone over to me. 

"Hell, this is Dan Howell," I said into the phone. 

"Hello, Mr. Howell. My name is Kristina Greyson, from social services of the united states. We have some pretty interesting news for you," The lady said to me. Social services? America? What on earth could this be about?

"Yes, go on," I said, concern laced into my voice. 

"Well, Mr. Howell, it seems that we have located yours and Mr. Lester's sisters here in the united states system," Ms. Greyson informed me. I was dumbfounded. Sister? I didn't have a sister, there was no way. 

"Kristina, you must be mistaken. I have no sister," I replied into the phone. 

"Well, Mr. Howell, you do! Her name is Skylar, and she is thirteen years old. She is in a home for girls in New York city. As well as Mr. Lester's thirteen year old sister, Emma, who was located in New Jersey." She informed me.

"We will give you time to think about what you want to do, but it would be favored for you both, as legal adults, to bring your sisters into your home.," She said. I gave her an "uh huh" and hung up the phone. 

"What are we going to do, phil?" I  asked, completely confused and concerned.


Emma's POV

I woke up the sound of my alarm at eight o'clock. The other three girls whom I shared the room with stirred in their sleep, but did not wake up. I climbed down from my top bunk and got in the shower. Afterwards,  I got dressed in a yellow long sleeved dress that came down to my knees, and white leggings underneath. I brushed through my shoulder length Raven colored hair, and put it up into two french braids. I grabbed my glasses and put them on, before going back out into the bedroom. 

Even though it was Saturday, I still had homework to catch up on. I sat down at the table in the center of the room where we all did our homework, and opened my social studies textbook. By the time I finished my homework, the other girls were up and it was breakfast time. 

"Hey, Robin," I greeted my fire haired friend. Robin is fourteen years old and my only friend in this place up to date. We chatted with each other until we got to the dining room where eight places were set with a bowl of cereal and a piece of toast. 

"Good morning girls. You two start eating while I find out what's taking those silly girls so long to get down here," Greeted Mrs. Kim, the lady who ran the place. We nodded and sat down, where the other girls came down one by one after hearing Mrs. Kim yell.

"Okay listen kids, there is supposed to be a family coming through here today! One of you lucky girls will be adopted, possibly. For the day, you guys may busy yourselves with things inside, because it is cold and rainy outside," Mrs. Kim gave the morning rundown. We all nodded and returned back to our conversations. 

Later, after lunch, I was sitting on my bunk drinking hot chocolate and reading "Harry Potter" when Mrs. Kim came into the room. 

"Hey, Emma? I have some great news for you.." Mrs. Kim started. 


Skylar's POV


I woke up at six o'clock on the dot, and hopped out of bed. I quickly showered and dressed in a pair of light wash jeans and a blue sweatshirt with Stitch from "Lili & Stitch" on it. I brushed through my chin-length curly light brown hair and let it fall around my face. I went back into the room where my room mates, Abbey, Carla, and Simone were still sleeping. 

I wish I could still be sleeping, but I had an agenda to attend to. I ran through the apartment that was dubbed "Brooklyn's home for girls", carefully avoiding our caretaker, Heather Goulding's room. I dashed out the door and down the two flights of steps to the lobby of the apartment building. 

There, waiting for me and talking to the guy at the desk, was a boy with a familiar mop of curly blonde hair. 

"Aaron! I'm here," I called to him as I crossed the lobby towards the two of them. Aaron turned around and grinned at me. 

"Hey, Sky! You're like fifteen minutes late," he teased. I laughed, and punched his arm. 

"I gotta be back early today, okay? Some sort of check-in with the services is happening today," I informed him. We walked out of the building together, and were greeted by freezing misty air. 

" Okay, we're going to the square to try to make money, because I need some," I laughed, looking up at Aaron. He nodded, and we began to cross the street. Suddenly I tripped on a crack in the road, and fell on my butt. Trying to cover it up, I quickly jumped up and assumed a heroic pose. 

"I.. did that on purpose! Yeah, just being a crimefighter and all that, you know, it's tiring, I needed a rest!..Yeah," I said as we resumed walking, my cheeks reddening. 

"Yeah, sure, you're the clumsiest crimefighter in all of Brooklyn, if that's the case" He chuckled, his blonde curls bouncing. 

After a couple hours of Aaron playing guitar and me singing in the square to earn money, I had to go back to the apartment. 

"So we made.. 80 dollars today. You take fifty, I'll take thirty," Aaron said. 

"What, no way! Split it even, 40/40," I said, folding my arms.

"No, I know your plan to get out of that home, and you're gonna need money for it. I don't really need it," Aaron countered. I sighed, giving in. He handed me two twenties and a ten and I put them in my pocket. 

When we made it back to the lobby, Aaron hugged me goodbye, and we went our separate ways.  As soon as I got to the apartment, I went into he kitchen and grabbed a bagel. After I started eating, Heather came up behind me and cleared her throat. 

"So it seems, Skylar, that today is your lucky day. I have some  news for you," she started. 

So, cliffhanger! (well actually you know what it is so not really but still!)

I hope you enjoyed it! How do you think the boys are handling the news of their sisters? Did they make the right decision? 

Who do you think is going to be the better sibling duo, #Danlar, or #Phimma?
