Zachs POV

"DANIEL WHY" I scream at my band mate. He just tweeted out to Stephanie that he has heard lots about her, and tagged me in it. "It's fine, she knows, fans know it's fine" He says, coming into the lounge room. I roll my eyes at him and he smirks "You are aware she said she was hosting interviews with Clevver? She could be interviewing us?" He asks. Great, now she can ask me any question and I have to answer. "Why would they let a fifteen year old do interviews?" I say, trying to hide my stress. He laughs, "It's Clevver, they don't do things professionally" I look up at him and my stress becomes a lot more obvious. He smirks again before Jack bursts into the room. "I think I found my sister" He states. Daniel and I sigh.

"This is the seventeenth time you've said that" Daniel states

"I think eighteen, actually" I correct Daniel and we both laugh. Jack seemed quite disappointed.

"I'm being serious, she's sixteen, has the same name and she moved to Australia when she was young" He says, excitement glazes over his eyes as Daniel and I shared a surprised expression.

"Well, how did you find her?" Daniel asks. A small smirk comes to his face as he looks at me.

"Stephanie Avery Carter, I mean all the signs add up! She has admitted she moved to Australia at a young age after her mum and dad, maybe our mum and dad, split and she never had contact with us! She is 15, like my sister would be, she has the same past and everything!" Jack responds, completely skipping the fact that I was trying to get in with his potential sister. "You found her through me, didn't you?" I ask. He nods.

"Yes, and bloody hell if I found her because of you, I owe you everything" He replies. Jonah and Corbyn both find their way into the lounge room. "What's all the yelling?" Jonah asks and Jack smiles again. "I think Zachs girlfriend is my sister" Jack replies.

"She's not my girlfriend!" I protest.

"Yeah not yet"

"You wish though"

"Maybe if you grew a pair"

"You admitted to wanting her"

"Okay you can shut up now" I stop them. They all burst out laughing and I just shake my head.

"How are you going to find out if she is?" Corbyn asks, taking every ones attention away from our 'relationship'. "I don't know, I guess I have to meet her and talk to her? Maybe talk to my dad?" Jack replies. We all nod our heads in agreement.

"Well is she free like at all this weekend?" Daniel asks me

"Nope. Two shoots today, one tomorrow and she has to film for her channel" I answer

"Well she said she was shooting with sph studios, maybe our shoots overlap?" Jonah chips in. "Yeah, maybe, I can ask her?" I question

"Yes we can facetime her" Daniel yells snatching my phone from my hands. They all run off and Corbyn just looks at me and shrugs his shoulders before joining them. I hear the dial tone of the call and she shortly picks up "Hey Za- Uh hey?" I hear her say. I instantly smile hearing her voice as I get up and join the rest of the boys. "Hi Stephanie!" Jonah yells, I see her face on my phone and she looked amazing. She was sitting on a chair with people fiddling with her hair, styling it. "Uh hi?" She giggles back at him. Her laugh just melts my heart and I end up smiling at her without her even knowing. "We thought because Zachary over here is always talking bout you, we'd call you and talk to you" Corbyn answers, patting my shoulder. I shoot him a look and he instantly removes his hand. She giggles yet again "Hi Zach" she says looking at the camera smiling. "Hi beautiful" I smile back at her, causing her to blush.

"AWW YOU GUYS ARE SO CUTE" I hear a boy yell. She shoots him a look and gives him a slight slap and he instantly closes his mouth. "Shut up Jordan" she says, rolling her eyes. The boys look at me and whisper "Who's he" I laugh at their caution

"Her step-brother" They all nod back at me and continues. We hear faint mumbling through the phone as Cassie, her manager, begins talking to her. We all start eavesdropping on the conversation. "No I'm with Clevver all of next week" she states

"Are they paying you?" Cassie questions, Steph sighs back at her.

"The videos I put out about it I get 75% of, you still get the 10%, 10% still goes to future videos and 5% goes to them. However much money they make, I get 15% back because I was a guest. 5% of that goes to future videos again, 5% to you and 5% to me. I have it sorted Cass, please just trust me" She states. Money was clearly a big thing for her manager, however Steph was a lot more about the actual job. Her manager mumbles a few more things before walking off. "Sorry about that" Steph says. I shake my head back at her

"Don't be sorry, it isn't your fault. What shoots are you doing today?" I ask, taking the focus away. She smiles "I am on my last set for Nordstrom and then I am heading to sph for my next one" I nod my head and confirm before Daniel interrupts

"We are shooting with sph later too! From 2:30 until whenever we are done" Steph smiles back at us "I'm there from 2:30 as well. I'm with Leah, who's shooting you?" She asks. The boys all share excited looks. "We are with Leah's sister, Anna. Maybe we will see you?" Jack replies. She nods her head "I have a break at 4 if you guys do as well and wanna join Jordan and I?" she asks. Jack smiles "Definitely, our break is at 4 as well" he confirms.

"Yay! I've got to finish my final set now, so I'll see you guys later" she beams

"Have fun gorgeous, see you soon" I say as she blushes

"Bye Zach, and the rest of you" She laughs. The boys say their goodbyes and Daniel hands my phone back, smirking. I shook my head at them before Jack breaks the silence. "Does that mean Jordan is also my step-brother? Because it's my mums step-son?" he perks up. I look at Jonah for an answer, purely because I wasn't focused. "If Steph is your sister, than yes Jordan is your step-brother" Jonah confirms. Jack grins and sits down on the couch, making everyone else do the same. "You'd have two step-brothers. Jordan has a twin brother named Matt, so if you guys are siblings, they are your step-brothers" I mumble. Jack turns to look at me and I turn to him. "How old are they?" He asks

"They turn 21 in December" I answer

"Are they nice?"

"Jordan is, she says she doesn't really get along with Matt as well as she'd like. He gets really angry and takes it out on her but she still loves him. She sees Jordan almost like a real brother, they're really close. He got tired of Matt getting to Steph so he moved her out to L.A with him. She says the only problem with him is, quote on quote, he is a hoe" I explain. All the boys are listening to our conversation now. "What does she mean, like how is he a hoe?" He asked. "Different girl every month apparently" I sigh. Jack was about to ask another question before Jonah's phone goes off. "That's our queue to leave, there is a driver out the front" Jonah informs. Without saying a word we all get up and head to the car.
