Long Lost Brother

Chapter 21: Family

"Serena," an aussie accent said nudging my arm. I groaned and rolled over.

"Sereeennaaaa," the accent cooed. I groaned again and pushed the person away. I rolled over so i could see him.

"Ow," Luke said laying on his back dramatically sprawled out. He sat up and held out his hand.

"Sowwy Luke," I said and turned around to see the person who was sleeping behind me gone. I frowned and Luke helped me up.

"Where are the boys?" I asked looking around.

"Which ones?" he asked.

"All of them," I said gesturing to the room. He shrugged and walked to the kitchen pulling out a pan, bread, bacon, Nutella, eggs, pancake mix, and Vegemite. I sat down and watched him pop four pieces of bread in the toaster.

"Have you ever tried Vegemite?" he asked picking up a little jar of vegemite.

"No but I've wanted to," I replied. We waited for the toast to pop up. When it did i jumped and Luke laughed at me. I pouted pulling out two pieces of toast. I took the vegemite and spread a bunch on my toast. Luke groaned taking the slice from me.

"Begginers aren't supposed to eat it like this," he said taking a bite of the toast with vegemite on it and taking the other one without. He spread a small amount on the slice and handed it to me. I took the slice and took a bite. Luke waited expectantly for me to give my feedback.

"I've tasted worse," I said swallowing and taking another bite. Luke grinned and ate more toast. The other items were still on the counter. I pushed passed Luke and decided to make breakfast as my treat to everyone. I put oil on the pan and spread it around. I opened the bacon and placed it carefully in the pan.

"You cook?" Luke asked raising his eyebrows. I nodded keeping my eyes on the pan to make sure the bacon didn't burn. I mustn't let the bacon burn.

"Thanks," he said.

"Why are you thanking me?" I chuckled.

"Cause for once I don't have to cook," he chuckled. I laughed and pulled out a plate, placing a paper towel on it. I took the bacon off of the pan and put them on the plate, so the paper towel would soak up the oil. I placed another paper towel on the bacon to keep the heat in and flies away. I pulled out a bowl and opened the pancake mix. Luke watched my skillful hands as I mixed, poured, and placed. I poured orange juice in glasses and placed them on the counter in an orderly manner.

"Luke please go find everyone?" I asked politely. He nodded and left as I finished the eggs. I set the table and put the food in buffet style on the counters. Everyone walked down the stairs with their own types of bed head. They all started sniffing the air hungrily searching for food. Their eyes landed on the food and widened. Everyone darted to the kitchen and piled their plates high with the food I made. Michael bit into a piece of bacon and made a face, my eyes widened in expectance of him to spit it out in disgust.

"This is not Luke's food! Who made this?" he said looking around. I slouched down in my chair wanting to disappear. Luke picked up my arm raising it high in the air. All eyes darted to me. Luke let go of my arm and I slouched down farther into my chair.

"This is delicious!" Calum yelled digging in again. Everyone nodded in agreement. I blushed and began to eat. I was the first one to finish so i picked up my plate and washed it putting it away.

"You're already done?" Harry asked confused.

"Not really hungry," I said shrugging. I noticed that lately I haven't been eating as much as I used to and I don't know why exactly. Harry nodded and started eating again. I walked upstairs and freshened up. When I finished I walked to my room and packed my clothes into the dresser finally. I took off my clothes and slipped into a pair of navy blue high waisted shorts and a Ramones tank top. I walked back downstairs, slipping my lip ring on at the same time. I was greeted by a wave of "Hi" and "Heys".
