The Leader

34-Coming Home

It was Monday night. I was gathering all my stuff from Harry's and waiting for Lottie and Caroline to take me home. Harry was helping me.

"So, you think you might be able to do this again?" He asked handing me my shirt. I shrugged.

"I don't know. I hope." I said finishing my suitcase.

"What time is Lottie coming?" I asked as I plopped on the bed. Harry took a breath and checked his black Rolex.

"Ehh... dunno. She said around 9." He said.

Then the doorbell rang and heard the door open and Caroline's voice.

"Oh lovebirds!" She yelled. I sighed and got up off the bed and picked up my bags and walked downstairs with harry following behind me.

Caroline and Lottie were both by the door.

"How was your weekend?" Lottie asked us.

"It was good." I said smiling. I followed them out to carolines car. Caro and Lottie were putting my bags in the car while harry and I were saying goodbye.

"Call me when you get home, princess." He said.

"Ugh. But it's late." I said sarcastically.

"Ok then call me when you wake up in the morning."

"But that's too early." I said laughing.

"Well then call me whenever is convenient for you." He said shaking his head.

"I'm kidding. I'll call you when I get home. Ok?" I said and kissed him.

"Bye." I said as Caro started the car.

I walked into the house and it was full of cameras. My mom was on the couch with my brother.

"Hunter. How was your trip?" She asked and came up to hug me. Lydia took my bags upstairs.

"It was good." I said.

"Tell is about it. How's Brenna and Jaden? And the other girls?"

"They're fine." I said, not wanting to talk to her. My mom turned away from me.

"Alright never mind then. Just get a small chat from hunter, then get me and Ryan. And get some info on Erica and Seth together." My mom said to the camera crew. They nodded. My mom handed me a change of clothes and told me to put them on.

One of the men ushered me over to an area of the living room that had a chair and a gold backdrop. I sat down and they put a mic on my shirt.

"Ok so we're gonna ask you questions and just try and answer as best as possible. And try and answer in complete sentences or just act like you're talking to the folks at home please. " He said. I nodded.

"Where did you go?"

"Me and my friends went to a friends dads private island."

"How long were you gone? And what kind of stuff did you do?"

"We spent about 4 days there. And mostly we just went sailing and hung out."

"Ok. Now was this the first time you went on vacation without your family?"

"Yes, it was the first vacation I've been on that I didn't have my family with me. But I had such a good time with my friends." I said with a perky smile.

"Thank you. You're done." He said.

I took off the mic and saw Erica and Seth coming over with our mom.
