Alex stepped outside from the car, slamming it shut on her sister's face. She heard her rant and complain to their mother, but her mother ignored her, talking to someone on her phone, as if completely oblivious to the situation happening behind her.

"Mother, we're here," Alex says, opening the front car door for her to get out. Her mother glanced at her and gestured her to go away before going back to her call. The taxi driver nervously shuffled around, waiting.

Alex felt a jab on her back to turn around to find her sister annoyed with her arms crossed.

"Why did you do that?" Charlotte frowned.

"Oh c'mon, it wasn't meant to be taken to heart," Alex rolled her eyes. Placing her palm to her heart and motioned a tear falling down her face just to annoy her.

"I did not take it to heart! I'll get you back!" Charlotte replies, clearly annoyed.

"Of course you won't sweetheart, you use my tricks against me after all," Alex smiled at her, messing up Charlotte's hair.

"My dumplings! It's so lovely to see you again!" Aunt Reege barges out of the door, spreading her arms in a welcoming hug.
She hugs Alex, who politely pushes her away after five seconds, then she hugs Charlotte, while she was still trying to fix her hair.

Charlotte starts to talk to Aunt Reege about everything that happened since her last visit as they walked back in the house. Alex looked back to see her mother, still in the car, then follows her aunt and sister in the house.

"AND IF I WAS A CHICKEN! I'D WANT TO EAT ME TOO!"

Alex widens her eyes in terror, looking everywhere for the source of the music, to see it was coming from the second floor.

"AND IF I WAS A GHOST! ID GO AROUND SAYING BOO!"

"Max and Oli have been planning that since they heard you were coming back," Aunt Reege whispers in her ear.

"AND IF I WAS A CAT! ID SCRATCH THE ARMS OFF YOU!"

Alex flashes her a kind smile before walking up the stairs, she looked back down to see Aunt Reege was nowhere in site. She ran up the stairs, slams the door open into Max and Oli's room. The room was silent enough to hear Aunt Reege laughing at Charlotte's horrible jokes all the way downstairs.

"Don't you dare continue. The. Song," Alex whispers harshly.

Oil and Max glanced at each other, then at Alex.

"Are you scared of your own song you wrote in second-"

Alex goes ahead and grabs Oli's hand. Max looks at her wide eyes, mouth a gap while Oli was red enough to seem that steam was smoking out of his ears.

Alex smiles at Oli before twisting his arm, almost breaking it. Oli falls back to the bed, holding his arm, groaning.

"So, will you not sing that again?" Alex asks, tilting her head at Max. Max nods enough to make it seem that his head might just fall apart.

"What the hell, did you join Karate again?" Oli whiningly replies.

Alex pretends to gasp, "No I didn't! It's not like I texted you about it or something."

"Heck, for all I know, you might be a faggot," Max replies jokingly.

Alex furrows her eyebrows, "What's wrong with being a 'faggot'?"

"Everything, they are Gay and shit," Max rolls his eyes, as if the answer was obvious.

"And what's wrong with being gay? What if I was gay?" Alex looked at them sternly, crossing her arms.

Max and Oli looked at each other, then they burst into laughter.

"But you aren't!" Max said in between laughs.

"For all you know, I might. And you two seem close enough to be a couple," Alex smirks at them.

"Ha! As if! You're the one for me, my dear," Oli rambles before thinking, then proceeds to turn red.

"Oh, I see you haven't gotten over your little crush over me yet," Alex rolled her eyes.

"I-i don't have a crush on you!" Oli stutters. Max in the back just sighs.

"Oh then, you have a crush on Max!" Alex bit her lip, suppressing her laughter.

"Uhm, as if! I'm not gay!" Oli replies hurriedly, then adds with a wink, "I am single though."

Alex gags and rolls her eyes, "And I'm not, keep dreaming honey."

'What in the world are you saying?! You are single!'

'You wanna date a fourteen year old?'

'Uh. Absolutely not.'

"You are dating a guy?! Where is my knife?" Max says surprised, then goes throwing everything off the bed looking for his 'knife'.

"Max."

"Max?"

Max continues, throwing his who knows how old laundry on the floor.

"Maximus Lester!"

"What?!" Max replies, annoyed.

'Welp, might as well make this lie as deep as it can go.'

'Good idea.'

"It's a she."
