(Niall's POV)

I can't sleep. I can't eat. I'm so worried. We still haven't found Eric, Lauren, & Aiden. Where would they be? Have they been kidnapped? Maybe they're hiding? Or maybe.....they're dead. No, they can't be dead! If they're dead, I'm dead. The lads have been helping in any way they can, but nothing's helping. I have dark circles from the lack of sleep. I haven't been eating, which is bad. I always eat. But I can't eat with the thought of Eric & Lauren missing for three years, and no one told me. It's my birthday today. I'm not feeling joyful at all. The only thing that'll make me happy is to see Eric & Lauren's faces again. I'm pacing around my house. I look at my phone in hopes I'll get a text or call, saying that they've been found. No luck. I look like a mess. I sat on the couch and put my face in my hands and groaned. Then, those groans turned into sobs. Then, my phone rang. I was quick to answer it.

"Hello?"

"Yes, is this Niall Horan?" said someone I didn't know.

"Um..yes." I said.

"We've found your brother & sister."

Oh my god, is this real? Have they really been found?

"Yes, they have been found."

Oops, said that out loud.

"Where have they been?" I asked, trying not to get my hopes up, but I couldn't help it.

"They've been stranded on an island for three years.

"Where are they now?" I started to grab my keys and put on my shoes.

"They're at um...a Louis Tomlinson's flat, if I'm correct." he answered.

"Alright! Thank you so much!!" I hung and and ran out.

I got in my car and started up the engine. I started to drive to Louis' flat. They're alive. They've been found. I'm so happy! I drove up to Louis' flat and burst through the door. I know, that was rude, but I have to see Eric & Lauren. I have to! There, I saw Louis watching TV with Aiden. He's alive too! I saw Eric & Lauren, sipping on root beer, and eating sandwiches. They looked up at me.

"NIALL!!!!!" they both said in sync.

They quickly ran up to me and threw their arms around me. I hugged them back.

"Oh my God, you're here. Guys, I missed you so much." I said to them.

"We missed you too." they said together. They quickly glared at each other. "Stop that! That's creepy! Stop it! JINX!!!!"

Okay, that ruined the moment.

"Niall, we would've called or texted you, but our phones got soaked. And plus, there's no cell phone service on a deserted island." said Lauren.

"Oh, Happy Birthday Nialler!!" Eric shouted.

"Thanks." I said, smiling.

Lauren looked at me weird. Then she started poking my stomach.

"You haven't been eating. That's so unlike you, Niall. You need to eat." said Lauren.

"Yeah, I know. I haven't been eating because I was so worried about you guys. I never stopped thinking about you guys. I kept looking for you." I said.

"Aww....that's so sweet." Eric said. He then handed me a sandwich. "Now eat."

I gladly took the sandwich from Eric and ate it.

"Oh, and we found out that Aiden is Louis' stepbrother." said Eric.

"Huh?!?" I said with a mouth full of food.

(Aiden's POV) (Before they came home)

Tomlinson? My last name's Tomlinson? What?

"Excuse me? Did you say, Tomlinson?" I asked.

"Yes, Aiden Tomlinson." said the man. "You're dad and Louis Tomlinson's mom got married before you guys disappeared. So that makes you Louis' stepbrother."

I can't believe this. I never even knew that my dad was dating. How could he keep this from me? I'm going to talk to him when I see him again.

~At Louis' flat~

They dropped us off at Louis' flat, and they said they'd call Niall for Eric & Lauren.

"Louis, what's your stepdad's name?" I asked.

Louis looked confused.

"Um....William. Why?" he said.

"That's my dad. So that means I'm your stepbrother."

"What?!?!?!"

"Yeah, my dad got married to your mother before we disappeared."

"Woah....I HAVE A BROTHER NOW YAAAAAYYY!!!!!"

I heard Louis' pretty perky.

"You guys hungry?" Louis asked us.

"Yes!" Lauren, Eric, & I said.

He made us sandwiches. Then we sat in front of the TV and watched SpongeBob. Then, Niall burst in the door.

(Lauren's POV)

~Back to the present~

We're together again. After three years from being separated from Niall, we're together. I'm so happy. Then, Dad came in the door. Followed by Liam, Zayn, & Harry.
