*time skip until after tour*
Tour went really well, the boys grew really big from it. We headed back to LA and made it home. We walked in the door and I said:
"Home sweet Home! I missed this place."
They laughed and I ran up to my room, I did not like what I saw when I went in.
"What is this!" I screamed
"Oh.....yeah, forgot about that." Corbyn said walking upstairs
"We didn't think you were coming back. So we built a studio in you room." Daniel said
I was furious
"So where am I supposed to sleep?!"
"Uhhhh" Jonah said
"The basement?" Jack said
I turned to him with big eyes
"Or not?" He said scared
"Let's see, eenie meanie minie mo, I choose you!" I said pointing at Jack and Zach
"Choose us for what?"
"I'm taking your room."
"No your not."
"Yeah I am."
"No"
"Well I'm not sleeping the basement."
"I have a idea." Corbyn butted in
"Why don't Daniel and you share a room."
"What?!" Daniel and I said in sync
"Well, you two are siblings and Daniel is the only one that has his own room." Jonah said
"Not helping Jonah!" Daniel said
"Well that's what's happening." Corbyn said
"Is the basement a option again?" I said
"Sure, let me show you." Jack said grabbing my hand pulling me down stairs and into the basement, the others trailing behind. We walked down and saw a dark, empty,crusty basement.
"Ew." I said
"I'll go get your bags."Jack said going to get my bags and then throwing them down the steps
"I swear Jack if you just broke my makeup!" I said running upstairs and jumping on him
"Get off of me!" He said
"You. Broke. My. Makeup!" I said
"I'm sorry!"
"Ugh Whatever." I said getting off of him
"I'm redesigning that basement though, can I have the keys?" I said fixing my hair
"Ok one, you can't drive yet, two, where are you even going?" Corbyn said
"Ok one, I can drive, I got my license while I was gone, and two, Target."I said
"Fine." He said
"But you have to bring one of us with you."
"I can't, heading to the gym." Jonah said
"Well I can't either, I'm picking up Christina." Corbyn said
"Zach and I were going paint balling." Jack said
"So I guess that means you." I said turning to Daniel
"Let's go sis." He said grabbing my hand
"I'll drive!" I said
"Uh how about no."
"What? Why not?"
"Because I'm your older brother and I can tell you what to do."
"Whatever" I said tossing him the keys
We drove to Target and I picked out my bed and bureaus. I now was getting decorative things.
"So what do you think about it?" Daniel asked
"About What?"
"Us being siblings."
"I think it's kinda awesome." I said
"Me too." He said
"I'm sorry you didn't get to grow up like the rest of us."
"It's ok, I wouldn't have the life I have now if I did." I said smiling at him
I got the rest of my stuff and we headed home. When we walked through the front door I heard bickering, about me?
" you never put the girl in the basement Corbyn'"
I knew that voice, I ran upstairs and yelled:
"Is that Mama Chickee I hear?!"
"Is that Gracie Besson I hear?!"
"Oh sister, we got a lot to catch up on." I said
She shrugged and we went downstairs. We heard a knock on the door and Jack got up to get it. He opened the door and moving guys literally trampled him.
"Oh, that must be the guys setting up my bed, right this way." I said pouting to them where I wanted it.
"What the hell is going on here?" Jack said
"Just moving into the basement, like you wanted me to Jack." He rolled his eyes as I blew him a kiss and winked
After the guys were done I paid them and Christina and I set up the basement.
"I love it!" Christina said
"So do I!"
"Let's get the boys to see this." She said, we got them and they said:
"Woah." In sync
"I know right." I said
"Now all of you can go back upstairs, Christina and I are having a girls night." They walked upstairs and I closed the door right on their faces.
"Finally I have some privacy!" I said walking back down
We sat and talked for a little bit when said Christina said:
"So what are you going to do about your future?"
"What do you mean?"
"Like are you gonna go to college?"
"I want to, I want to go for art and animation."
"I didn't know you can draw."
"I usually did it by myself, and so never really liked my work so I never showed anybody."
"Can I see your work?"
"Sure" I ran over to my sketch book
I had Disney animations in there and then she got to the back of the book.
"So you drew the boys?"
"Maybe, when I was away."
"You missed hem didn't you?"
"Yeah, but you can never tell them that!"
"I won't , promise. There is that art college right here in LA, you wouldn't even have to move out."
"That's true, I'll have to talk to the boys about it."
"Want to go now?"
"No, I'll tell them tomorrow."
"Ok, I'm really tired."
"Me too, let's go to sleep."
"Yeah" She said getting up
"Where are you going?"
"Oh um..... I think I'll sleep on the couch tonight."
"Oh, ok." She went upstairs and I went to sleep
The next morning I woke up and went upstairs.
"Good morning princess!" I heard Jonah say
I walked into the kitchen and saw he was making eggs.
"Yes! I haven't had Uncle J eggs in forever!" I said putting my hands in the air
"You didn't even correct me for callin-" he said but I cut him off by saying
"Don't call me princess!"
I went to the living room and saw Jonah and I were the only two up. I sat on the couch and about ten minutes later Daniel came walking slowly down the steps. He was still half asleep so I said:
"Morning bro!"
He got scared and almost fell down the steps.
He came and sat next to me and he put on the TV. Then a thought hit me:
Where is Christina?
A couple minutes later I saw her trailing down the steps with Corbyn's arms wrapped around her waist.
"Glad to see the couch was comfy." I said
Her head shot up and she said:
"Well this is awkward." She said pushing Corbyn off of her, he was still half asleep.
He put his hands back and she said:
"Get off of me, they are all staring."
"Yeah, French toast sounds great, thanks babe." Corbyn said
"I'm not making anything for you, you think I'm your maid!" She said slapping Corbyn making his head shoot up.
"Eggs are done!" Jonah yelled from the kitchen
We all walked in and I said:
"Thanks Mama Marais!"
"No problem princess!" He said squeezing my cheeks
"Ew stop." I said
We were eating pretty silently and then I thought this was a good time to tell them about college
"So, I need your approval on something."I said
"No" Corbyn said
"What? I didn't even say it yet."
"I know it's going to be something stupid."
"Let the girl talk idiot." Christina said smacking the back of his head
"I want to go to college." I blurted out, orange spit out his orange juice all over Jonah
"I'm going to go change." Jonah said disgusted
"Where?" Corbyn said
"Here, at that art college." I said
"So you wouldn't be moving out?" Daniel said
"Nope"
"Ok then" Corbyn said
"Oh my God, yes! Thank you!" I said running to him and kissing him on the forehead
*Time skip to the first day of college ( which was about 3 weeks)*
I ran down stairs because I was already late. I hugged all the boys and kissed Zach. I grabbed my bag and a banana and yelled "bye!" on my way out.  I jumped in the car and drove to the college. I went and sat in college orientation. I sat in a open row in the auditorium when a guy came and sat next to me.
"Well hello there." He said
"Hi?" I said back
"What's your name?"
"Gracie, and you are?"
"Luke, I'm having a party tonight at my house, wanna come?"
"Uh... can I bring a guest with me?"
"As long as it's not your parent."
"It's not, promise."
"Ok then, it starts at 9 and I'll put my address in your phone."
"Ok"
After our first day was over I headed home. I walked in and yelled:
"Hello boys!"
I saw no one was sitting there and I felt stupid. I called Daniel to see where they were.
"Hi" he said
"Hey, where are you guys?"
"The studio."
"And no one told me?"
"Oops"
"What time are you guys coming home ?"
"Around 7"
"Ok good, can you put Zach on the phone?"
"Yeah"
"Hey babe"
"Hey Zach. I have my first college party tonight."
"Oh geez, Corbyn would never let you go alone."
"Well that's why I wanted to take my handsome boyfriend."
"Who may that be?"
"I don't know, I think his name is Jonah."
"Hey!"
I laughed and said:
"Party starts at 9, love you!"
"Ok,love you too, but do you think Corbyn will approve?"
"No, we will sneak out."
"Well we need to tell him where we're going."
"I'll tell him we're going over Logan's."
"Ok, call Logan and tell him, just incase."
"Will do, bye!"
"Bye"
I spent the rest of the day watching Netflix and I called Logan and told him to cover for us. The boys got home around 7:30 and we ate dinner. I then went and got ready for the party. Zach and I both were walking out the door when Corbyn stopped us:
"And where do you two think your going?"
"Over Logan's." I said
"With a full face of makeup and a short dress on with heels?" He said
"Uh yeah, I'm going to be in a skit for his vlog, Bye now!"
I opened the door and we jumped in the car. We got to the party and saw it was a frat house.
Zach took my hand as we walked inside. There was really loud music playing, a lot of people, and alcohol. I don't drink, and Zach doesn't either, if someone got a video of him drinking, his career would be over. We really just danced until Luke came up to me.
"You made it!" He said
"Sure did!" I said
"Who's your guest?" he said
"This is my boyfriend Zach." I said pulling him close to me
"I know you from somewhere, are you famous?" Luke said
"Uh yeah, I'm part of a band named Why Don't We."
"That's it, I didn't know you knew famous people, my little sister loves you guys." He said pointing to me
"Uh yeah, One is my brother and another one is my adoptive dad."
"That's crazy" He said
"I can introduce you to my girlfriend." He said pulling a pretty girl to his side
"Hi I'm Lily!" She said drunk
"Oh hi, I'm Gracie." I said
"You should join the leopards." Luke said
"The what?"
"The leopards, it's a group in college that is kind of like a biker gang, but without the bikes."
"Oh, I don't know."
"Oh come on, we can do the ritual to get you in right here."
I looked at Zach and he just had a blank expression.
"Ya know what, why not?" I said
"Now thats the spirit. Yo pop star, you in too?"
"I guess, I don't go to college here though."
"Who cares, come on, I'll show you the first part of the ritual."
