The trip took longer than what I expected, but after 48 hours of driving, we finally got to where we wanted to go. When I got a look at the house, I noticed it was big enough to fit 6 more people with us around, it was simply colored creamed on the wooden walls, the roof was brick colored red, the door was white, and it had tons of windows. Everyone got out all except me, who kept Melody in check to not let her overwork on her body and damage her stitches.

I shook her, she grunts, then woke up groggily. "We're here." I spoke, she nods. She wore her hearing aids after the accident, told me that even if she wasn't comfortable, she wanted to hear things and be safe from now on. I was okay with it, at least she's trying to be comfortable with her hearing aids. I wrapped an arm around her, then kissed her cheek. "You can go inside now, I'll take care of the luggage." I spoke, she nods before carefully walking away from the van.

I sighed, picking up the luggage, when I reached the house with two suitcases on both hands, I saw Wilson talking to someone.

She had medium length brown hair, she had Sapphire blue eyes, pale skin, with freckles, she was shorter than Wilson, which made me taller than her. I approached them with both bags in my hands.

"Uh? Wilson?" I spoke, careful to not offend anyone with the next words I am about to say. "Yeah?"

"You told us the boss picked this place, who's this girl?"

"YOU TOLD HIM!?" the girl exclaimed, her eyes shifted and she seemed to be breathing heavily. she then gave me a look telling me if I don't explain now I'll be dead when the sun comes out tomorrow. so being a logical person, I tried to calm her down which made her more confused and anxious. "Look, I'm just following orders, and Wilson here told us that the boss picked this place for us, and that we were safe here." finally, I explained.

"He didn't tell Wilson about this place, I was the one who told him, and the reason will be clarified later on after everyone got comfortable. maybe after dinner." she still felt uneasy with us around, so I left her alone with Wilson to help out with the others. she seemed really strange but I guess anyone would act that way if they seemed alarmed by things.  but yelling at Wilson and being mysterious is really putting me off edge with this girl, and I didn't even know her name yet, and I'm pretty sure Wilson doesn't also. I sighed, putting the last of the luggage inside the house, where everyone is.

I looked up when I heard someone yelling out that the house was perfect and okay with their tastes, when I looked around it just felt decent to me, nothing more, nothing less. I nodded in agreement to their statement either way, why disagree, right? I felt an arm wrap around mine, I turned to my side and saw Melody smiling sweetly at me, in which I returned very quickly, the eerie feeling I was feeling before was gone, not that Melody is near. Gwen came up to me, rubbing her eyelids as she yawned. "I feel tired, nee-chan." she spoke, tired as she hugged my leg and I couldn't help but lift her up and cradle her in my arms, just as I was about to put her down on the couch, Wilson and the girl came inside, the girl looked nervous.

"Everyone, this is Cassie. she told me about this place and advised us not to tell the boss, for reasons she will and soon tell us." Wilson turned towards Amber and Wendy. "Will the two of you cook dinner?" the two didn't decline and just walked away, disappeared behind a door and Wilson soon dismissed us. I didn't know why , but I really didn't trust her. I walked toward Gabe and she gladly took Gwen out of my hands, I smiled as I joined both Melody and Gabe on the couch. We all looked at a helpless Taiyo who is trying to talk to Axel but the said boy's attention was elsewhere. I chuckled at the thought of them getting together, then it hit me. really hard towards reality. TAIYO AND AXEL AREN'T GAY RIGHT? I don't know what to think about right now, believe me I will support them no matter what but signs of them being gay isn't very much visible. I turned towards Minami who just came in, smiling kindly at us. she then sat down next to Gabe. "So who was that girl?" she asks, and I bet she was referring to Cassie. "Her name was Cassie, weren't you listening?" Gabe asked, teasing her girlfriend. "I was outside, looking at something.. ---OH! I almost fucking forgot, I came in here to tell Ace something, can we talk?" she asks, she stood and I stood up too. I nodded. "Sure why not?" I turned towards Melody then kissed her on the forehead. "I'll be back." I whispered, and she nodded.
