We pulled up to the gates of the house. Two security guards stood on either side. One walked up to the car greeting our driving while the other typed in the pin number of the gates. They slowly opened revealing the courtyard.
I stared out the window in which obsessed fans were running around. Only barricades and security held them back from running up to the vehicle.
We slowly drove through the gates and through the courtyard. It was a straight road for 100m surrounded by flowers and the gardener mowing the perfectly green lawns. The road came to a sort of roundabout but had a pretty fountain in the middle. I remember having a fight with Lu one day and pushing him in it. Boy oh boy was I in trouble that day. A few metres down from the fountain, was the front doors to the house.
Standing on the porch was Aunty Johannah and Uncle Mark. How much I’ve missed them! Looking up on the balcony was my 5 favourite cousins, Charlotte, Felicite, the twins Daisy, Phoebe and Georgia! Next to them waving was a lot of the family. Uncle Spencer was there, Ashley, Aunty Lorna, Dylan & Story, Kristen and Lexie!
“Look at that” Louis smiled pointing to them
“I miss them!” I smiled too “Hey look!” I pointed at Eleanor who was walking out onto the porch with Johannah and Mark.
We pulled out the front as the butlers came to open our doors, out rushed the ever so smooth LuLu running to hug his parents. I followed him as grandpa and nana came out to give me a hug.
“Hey darlin” Grandpa hugged me. “Look how big you’ve gotten!”
“GRANDPA! What are you doing here?” I laughed
“He heard you were moving and that gave him an excuse to come and live here again.” Nana hugged me. Trust that they would be here! Grandpa never stopped talking about England. Not for a minute.
“Kitty” Aunty Jo hugged me
“JOJO”
“How have you been honey! Up to mischief I bet” she laughed
“Got that right” I used to be pretty rebellious and my family would always make jokes out of it. We walked inside to see the whole family standing there. There were about 30 of us! It touched me when I saw Lottie and Fizz run up to Lu as he hugged them. The he picked up Daisy and Phoebe and pat Georgie on the head.
Louis was always my closest family member because he was closest to my age, until Charlotte and Felicite were born, but they spent more time with each other than me or Louis. We had other cousins too like Ashley who was 30, Dylan and Story who were 6, Kristen and Lexie who were 7 and 8. We were all close but not as much as Lottie and Fizz were, or Kristen and Lexie were, or Louis and me were.
“How about we get our stuff up to the rooms and we’ll come down and catch up” Louis politely told our family.
“Yeah, let’s give them a chance to breath” Mark laughed as he shook Louis’ hand
“Remember the way?” Lou joked as him and Harry took my bags up the marble stair case
“It’s only been 5 years” I winked
