August's little sister

Chapter 4

Olina's POV

I wake up the next morning, curled up on the couch. I checked my phone and it was 6:30 am. There was no one next to me so Jonah and Sydnie had obviously left at some point last night. I knew that today I would have to see August. I didn't want to but I knew deep down that I couldn't avoid him forever.

Brighton's POV

We finished up at Logan's around 10 pm, we went back to the house to find Jonah and Sydnie in the kitchen and Olina asleep on the couch. We were all tired, so we just went straight to our rooms.

Zach's POV

We got back and Olina was asleep on the couch, she looked so peaceful. I don't know how I feel about her. I just met her and she had an effect on me, my cheeks were redder than normal when I was with her. Thankfully nobody seemed to notice that, I can't fall for one of my best friend's sister. I just can't...

Olina's POV

I have been awake for hours now. The boys really like to sleep in. I got up and went into the kitchen. It was now 10:34 am and I was getting hungry. I searched the cupboards and decided to make some pancakes. I made myself a few and ate them. I felt bad for using there stuff so I decided to make everyone on some pancakes, I ended up making 20 pancakes. I left them on the side and left them a note;

Good morning or afternoon, whichever it is for you, I made pancakes for you. I went out for a while so don't look for me.
Olina xx

I walked around LA for a while and decided to get myself a coffee, I don't really like it but I felt like having some. I looked at my phone and it was almost noon. I should have started to head back to the boys house but as usual I got distracted by something...

Brighton's POV

I woke up at around 11 am. I went to where Olina was sleeping and she wasn't there. I went in the kitchen and there were several stacks of pancakes and a note.

I sighed, I didn't call her as she wouldn't want me to bother her and I had a pretty good idea where she was anyway. I helped myself to a stack of pancakes and sat on the island, one by one the boys came down and ate their pancakes. It was almost noon when we were all up and dressed. We decided that we were going to walk around and try to find Olina as she really didn't know LA at all.

We drove for about a hour before we stopped outside a pet store. Back home this was Olina's favourite place to go when she needed to think or she was upset. The boys walked down each aisle while me and August when straight to where the puppies were. Olina had always wanted one but our mom was allergic so she could never get one.

As we expected, Olina was petting a fluffy grey and brown puppy. "Olina," August called her name. You could see her tense up at the sound of his voice. She hasn't seen him since she ran away.

Olina's POV

I heard someone call my name, I then realised that it was August and I tensed up, he was mad at me and I hadn't seen him since I ran away. I moved my hand from the puppy's head to by my side and turned to face my brothers. Guilt was written across my face, I never wanted to ruin the relationship I have with August. I am already losing my relationship with Katin because he moved to Lithuania. I was losing all the good in my life and I didn't like it. I could tell by the look on their faces that they didn't want to lose me as much as I didn't want to lose them. I am so grateful for having such caring and loving brothers.

August's POV

Olina meant the world to me and I don't want to lose her. I shouldn't have got mad at her. She turned to face us and she guilt and sorrow written across her face, she knew what she did was wrong but she didn't want to lose us.

I don't speak to her, I just walk up to hear and pull her into a tight hug. I felt her begin to shake and her tears formed neat, damp circles on my blue shirt. I kissed the top of her head. "I didn't mean to be mad, I still love you." She pulled away and looked straight into my eyes, our emotions mirrored. "I'm sorry for what I did, I really am." I signaled to Brighton to come over to us and we had a family hug. It's strange to think that Olina running away made us all closer than we were before.

Olina's POV

We all pulled away from the family hug and I took one last look at the puppy I was previously petting. I loved it so much, it was perfect. Brighton put his arm over my shoulder and together we walked out of the door and sat in the car waiting for the others.

"You really love that dog, don't you?" I nodded. "Can I come back tomorrow and buy it?" He furrowed his eyebrows in deep thought, "Yeah, you deserve one," I smiled to Brighton. This adventure that I had been on since I had run away, has to be one of the best things that has ever happened to me in my entire life.

*the next morning*

Olina's POV

We are on our way back to the pet store to buy the puppy I saw yesterday. I had butterflies in my stomach, I was nervous and excited. I had a name picked out. She will be called Kelsea. Her breed won't grow very big so, she is the perfect dog to have in LA. The car pulled up outside the store, I walk in with Brighton and we decided on a blue theme for all of her stuff (collar,lead,bowl etc.).

We put all of our purchases in the car and went back in for Kelsea. I walk slightly ahead of Brighton with a big smile on my face. As I get to the puppy pens my smile disappears, Kelsea's pen is empty.

Someone else bought her...
