"What is this plan exactly?" I asked confused.

"Well, in a week you are flying to somewhere." Lisa said looking back at me from the front seat.

"Wait, I am? To where?" I was even more confused.

"To LA." Cameron smirked and I smiled.

"No way!" I shouted.

"Yes way." Sean chuckled.

"So that's what you've been working on these past couple of days?" I said not able to stop smiling.

"Yes." She smiled.

"You're like my second mother you know that?" I placed my hand on Lisa's shoulder.

"That means a lot that you say that, Tammy. You're like my second daughter." She smiled.

"You're part of our family, Tam." Cameron said.

"I love the Dolan family." I giggled.

"Part of why you're going is because Grayson and Ethan couldn't stop complaining about you not coming with and plus Grayson really cares about you, so we thought why not?" Sean smiled.

"I love you guys." I smiled. "Do the twins know?"

"Not a thing." Lisa said smirking.

I chuckled. "Okay good. I love surprising them. Am I coming home with you guys while my mom is at her business meeting?"

"Your mom is already home, we're taking you there. You're always welcome to come, but you need to go home right now." Lisa said again.

"Why do I have to?" I emphasized the 'have'.

"You'll see." Lisa winked.

A few minutes later we pulled up to my driveway.

"Bye, loser." Cameron said as I climbed out.

"Bye, Cam." I chuckled and waved them off.

I opened the front door and walked inside.

"Mom? You're already home?" I yelled into the house. I suddenly saw her come from my bedroom. "What were you doing in my room?"

"Why don't you see for yourself?" She smirked and I raised an eyebrow in confusion.

I walked into the room and couldn't believe what I saw. I gasped and covered my mouth in surprise.

"LINA?!" I shouted.

"Hey, girl." She smiled widely.

I ran to her and held her in a tight hug. "What are you doing here?"

"Long story." My mom said.

"Yeah, very. I called to FaceTime you Friday before your Homecoming, but your mom answered." Lina said still holding onto me.

"You were busy with your makeup and dress in your room while your phone was in the kitchen with me. I saw her calling and answered."

"Your mom heard of me and stuff, but didn't know me so good."

"I talked to her a bit and told her about uhh Greg and uhm Eric? Uhm yeah. And asked her if she'd be willing to come before next Monday and she said she'll ask her mom."

"I knew my mom wasn't going to let me go to The States with complete strangers for no valid reason, so I told her I won a three month scholarship to there. And she believed it." Lina chuckled. "And well now I'm here."

"I love you guys so much." I pulled my mom into a hug with me and Lina. "You told Lisa about this?"

"Yes, she asked if I could find someone to go with you to LA." My mom said pulling out of the hug.
