Raven's POV

Almost everyone was gone. Everyone but Andy, Juliet, my dad, Pete, Bree, Patrick and Kellin. They were helping us clear away. Elsa was asleep on the couch, and looked so peaceful. I hadn't spoken to my dad yet, maybe it was because I was too busy talking to Trick and Kellin.

"Raven? Can we talk?" My dad asked he picked up a few glasses.

"Sure." I sighed and picked up some plates.

I walked into the kitchen and he followed. I placed everything down, and took the stuff off him, playing them down as well. I leaned against the counter and looked at him.

"You've grown so much." He smiled.

"You've not changed that much." I hissed.

See, here's the thing with my dad. He treated the whole family like shit. He is a recovering alcoholic and cheated on my mom a few years ago after we found out that she had cancer. He hadn't made one effort to contact any if us.

"I'm sorry Ray, I was scared." He looked down.

"You left us dad." I shook my head. "Elsa hardly knows you anymore."

"But she'll get to know me. You both will." He looked up then. "Your leaving with me tomorrow. We're going to England and starting again."

"That's if your girlfriend doesn't get in the way." I spat.

"About that, me and her are engaged." He smiled a little. "You'll have a new-"

"Don't you even think about saying mom." I cut him off. "She'll never be a mom to me. As far as I'm aware, she's just a whore, a desperate lap dancer."

"She really nice when you get to know her." He shook his head. "You'll like her."

"I doubt that dad." I shook my head and walked passed him.

I went back into the lounge and saw that everyone had finished tidying. Andy, Juliet, Patrick and Kellin were sat on the spare couch. Pete and Bree were sat on the floor next to one another. As soon as Bree saw me enter the room, she smashed her lips against Pete's. Pete didn't pull anyway, he just kissed her back. They stopped when they needed to get their breath back.

"You two are too loved up." Kellin giggled.

I moved so that I was sat on the floor by the couch that Elsa was sleeping on. Andy winked at me, causing me to smile a little.

"So, Andy, how's the band going?" Pete asked Andy.

"It's great." Andy replied. "Best job ever."

"Remember that time when me, you, Raven, Joe and Andy started a band?" Patrick asked Pete.

"Oh my gosh, yes." Pete chuckled.

"How do you even remember that?" I asked Patrick. "We were in 7th Grade."

"I remember all of us being in Pete's basement, practising." Patrick then laughed. "I also remember the time that we entered the talent show and you got stage fright."

"That was so embarrassing." I shook my head.

"Who played what?" Bree asked.

"Pete was bass, Andy was drums, I was rhythm guitar, Joe was lead guitar and Raven was singing." Patrick explained.

"My sister can sing?" Andy asked sounding surprised.

"No I can't." I protested.

"Yes you can!" Pete argued, smiling at me. "You have a killer voice."

"I can't even sing infront of people." I sighed. "Patrick sings though."

"That is a completely different story." Pete smiled. "Let's put it this way, both Patrick and Raven can sing."

My dad walked into the lounge and looked at Pete, Patrick, Kellin and Bree.

"You guys need to leave." He sighed.

They all stood up and made there way out. I got up as well to see them out. Patrick, Kellin and Bree walked out but Pete stopped in the doorway. The others didn't noticed, they just continued walking.

"About early..." Pete looked down.

"Whatever it was, I'm sure it was a mistake." I whispered. "Your with Bree, and besides, I'm leaving in the tomorrow."

"Your leaving?" Sadness crossed his face.

I nodded. "Yep. So, at least I won't cause trouble between you and Bree."

"You wouldn't be doing that anyway." Pete whispered. "Ray, I need to tell you something, something I've wanted to say in ages... I-"

"Your still here?" My dad asked from behind me.

"Uh... Yeah..." Pete sighed. "I guess I should go... Bye Raven."

He turned and walked up to the others. I closed the door and stared at my dad.

"What? He had to leave..." My dad shrugged. "Now, you should get to bed, we have a long day ahead of us tomorrow."

"I'm going to go now." Andy said, coming over to us. "Call me as soon as you land, okay Ray?"

"Sure." I smiled and hugged him tightly.

My alarm started buzzing at 9am. I got up, got changed and started packing. I packed all of my clothes, CD's, DVD, shoes, Bass, Amp and other things. Once that was all done, I took all my stuff downstairs to the lounge. Elsa was there with her stuff and my dad was smiling away.

"You girls ready?" He beamed.

"Yeah..." Me and Elsa said in unison, not sounding excited.

We picked everything up and placed it in the car. We were just about to leave when someone tapped my shoulder. I turned round and saw Kellin, Brendon, Patrick, Joe, Alex, Andy, Jack and Pete.

"You can't leave without saying goodbye." Kellin smiled. Tears were forming in all of their eyes.

"Guys..." I shook my head, almost in tears. "It's not goodbye, we'll see each other again."

"Either way, we'll miss you." Patrick admitted.

Tears streamed down my face. "You guys are making me cry."

"We're already crying silly." Brendon wiped away his tear.

"Come here you guys." I held out my arms, and they all hugged me at once.

We stood in the group hug for ages. We were all crying to be honest. I had so many memories with these dudes, memories that I'll never forget. I wanted so badly to stay with them. It was like I was loosing all of my brothers.

"Raven, we've got to go." My dad sighed.

"Okay." I pulled away from the guys and wiped my eyes. "Bye guys."
