-Amy's Point of View-

When we went up to my room, I had remembered about Kathryn and Jason.

"I still have to tell Kate and Jason about our dad." I said.

"Oh, right. I forgot about them. Want me to come with you?" He asked.

"Umm no. I think I have to do this on my own." I said. I wanted Mike to come but I think it would be better for everyone if he didn't. "You'll be here afterwards though right?" I finished.

"Of course." He replied.

I smiled and walked out of my room, down to the basement. When I got into the basement Kate and Jason were playing Sorry.

"Hey guys." I said like a two year old. "We need to talk."

"What's up sis?" Jason asked being his normal self.

"Yeah, is everything OK?" Kathryn asked.

"No"

"What happened?" Jason asked. "Was it Mike? I'll kick his ass if he hurt you."

Jason is a happy, sweet, loving guy, except for when it come to people hurting Kathryn and I. This is because he is a year and a half older than us and before mom died she told him to not let anyone hurt us. Even though he was little he took what she said to heart and he still does.

"No, it's about dad." I said starting to tear up.

"What's wrong with dad?" Kathryn asked.

"He's.........."

Jason looked at me with a worried look and said "He's what?"

"Dad is....... dead" I replied as I started crying.

There was a long period of silence before anyone said anything.

"Where are we going to go?" Jason asked.

"I called Kirsten, so we can go ahead and stay there for as long as we need." I replied.

"OK." Jason and Kathryn said in unison.

"Let's go pack then."

We grabbed our suitcases and went upstairs. As we all went upstairs into our rooms, I found Mike in mine as he promised. He was looking at all the pictures I had displayed from many years ago.

"Hey, how'd it go?"

"Better than I thought it would." I answered.

Mike helped me pack until 12:30pm then everyone went downstairs to the kitchen to the food. We ate in silence until Jason suggested we watched a movie.

"What movie?" I asked.

"How about the Martian?" Kate suggested.

"I'm cool with that." Jason said.

"Me too. How 'bout you Mike?" I asked.

"I'm good with that." He responded.

We all sat in the living room and within 20 minutes into the movie we were all asleep.

The next morning we were all packed and ready to go. We all packed our cars with our stuff and headed off to Kirsten's where Hannah and Jordan were waiting.

"AHHH!!!" We all scream.

The boys just stood there laughing. When we all looked back Matthew, Taylor and Caleb had appeared and were laughing along with Mike and Jason. Mike had called them to come help us move. I walked over and hugged him.

"Come on. We've got a long day ahead of us." Kirsten said.

We all went and started grabbing stuff out of the cars and bringing them inside where we were greeted by Ms. Johnson.

"Hi guys" She said very excitedly. "Who are these guys?" She finished.

"This is Mike , Taylor and Caleb." I said pointing at each one of them. Mike is about 5'12 and is always wearing an orange Safetyshirtz sweater and blue jeans with vans and a baseball cap over his dirty blonde hair.

Caleb is 5'9, he has dirty blonde hair and he usually wears baseball shorts with a short sleeved shirt and a zip-up hoodie.

Taylor is well.... Taylor. He wears shorts and T-shirts all the time and he is 5'10 with dirty blonde hair.

"Well nice to meet you guys." Ms. Johnson said.

"Mom, they are going to help us move their stuff." Kirsten said. "Is that OK?"

"Of course!"

************1 HOUR LATER*************

It was 12:00 and we had just brought all of our things in. I got my part of the room set up that I share with Kathryn and Kirsten. I had just laid in bed when there was a knock on the door. I got up and walked to the door and opened it. It was Mike.

"Hey, settling in OK?" Mike asked.

"Yeah, so far so good."

"Good. Just thought I'd stop by and see how it's going."

"OK." I said.

"Well I am going to go." He said as he turned and walked away.

"BYE!" I yelled after him. He turned, smiled and waved.

I shut the door and went to my "room" and laid down to go to bed. I finally fell asleep when Kirsten texted me 20 minutes later.

K: I'm not coming home tonight. Night!

Me: Night!

I wonder why Kirsten isn't coming home.
