“so who was that girl? And why did she hate you so much?” asked Lee as we got out of Florida again and were walking up the steps to Lees massive house.

“Jesus! Don’t tell me you live in a house this big too Blaze?”

“nope I just live in a modest 3 bedroom bungalow, whereas Lee is the rich one in the big house”

“its not that big… is it?” said lee

“I live in a house boat called the squeaky cow, any house is big to me” I said laughing

“Lee it’s massive and you know that” said blaze as Lee opened the door

“none of my families in but Clair will be home soon” said lee closing the door, blaze was already heading off in some direction. I ran to keep up with him.

“blaze is just going to the fridge hope” called Lee from some other room, and so he was like it was the most natural thing to do “he practically lives here its an escape from the sisters from hell”

I walked out of the kitchen and tried to find my way back to the front door, when I realised I didn’t even know where Lee had gone. I found my self very lost. And I wished I had Blazes phone number to help me find him. Suddenly a door opened and a boy came out.

he looked at me a moment as if trying to work out who I was, when he decided he didn’t know who I was he said “who are you?”

“hope”

“hope? I don’t know you hope” he sounded confused

“im one of Lees friends”

“ahh cool, why you over here?” he asked

“I got lost”

“never been here before?”

“nope” I had no idea why I was still talking to this boy

“do you know where your meant to be?”

“well Blaze is in your kitchen” I started to say

“hes the tall one right? Hes always in the kitchen” he said still looking confused “come on, Lee will be in his room”

he started walking off so I followed as we walked he started talking to me.

Round the corner

“so you Lees girlfriend?”

“ehh no, just a friend”

Through a room

“how long you known him? I don’t remember a Hope”

“I met him this morning”

Up the stairs

“how did you meet him then”

“through Blaze”

we stopped outside a door

“here you go” we could hear them talking inside “I would listen make sure its not about you before you go bursting in” he said as she turned away. I knocked on the door

“hope?” I heard someone yell back

“yeah” I pushed the door open to be met by a very large room and Blaze looking at me he mentioned to the seat beside him on the very large bean bag he was sat on. Lee was poking his flat screen tv “I got a bit lost”

“we could tell how’d you find your way?”

“your brother, I think”

“he’s home?” lee said turning suddenly and hitting his head on the Tv

“erm I don’t know if it was him but other wise theres some random boy in your house who knows where your room is”

Lee opened his door “Aaron?” he yelled

“what?” we heard back “I lead your little girl friend to your room what now?”

“not my girlfriend!”

“whatever” we heard the front door slam

“im sorry you had to meet him hope” lee said closing the door

“he seemed okay with me” I said sitting down next to Blaze

“so what do you guys want to watch? Please don’t make me watch some romantic gushy love thing” said Lee

“we wont” said Blaze

“what do you have?” I replied

“anything and everything, hes rich Hope” laughed Blaze I stood up and looked at his many films

“oh my god you have The Breakfast Club!” I said pulling it out with a grin I turned to look at the two blank faced boys

“I have the what now?” said Lee

“the greatest movie of all times” I said showing him it

“the breakfast club?” lee said taking it “what is it?” he handed it to Blaze

“you like 80’s movies?” Blaze said looking up at me

“yeah, why is that a bad thing?”

“ohh its an 80’s movie that will be clairs not mine then” said Lee taking it off Blaze and taking it out of the room “im just going to take this down to the others of her 80’s movies”

“wait you have more” I said

“they have a whole case full of them” said blaze standing up

“Awesome” I said smiling

“trust you to get the 80’s movie freak Blaze” laughed lee as he left
