Welcome To The Clifford Family

Chapter 23

Amy POV

I missed Abi a lot, and now that she is back it makes everything better again.

We walked back to her house, the boys were laughing and joking as Abi and I took turns carrying my backpack. it was really heavy from all of my school books.

Eventually Calum saw us passing it back and forth every few minutes and grabbed it. he put it on his back and then Abi and I put my earbuds in out ears and turned the music on shuffle.

The first thing that came on was 'Popular' from the musical Wicked.

We began singing, usually I sing the Galinda parts and Abi sings the Elfi parts but today we both sung together.

The boys must not be used to Abi breaking out into random song so they all gave us weird looks.

"What? got a problem with us bursting into song?" Abi said sassily.

They just turned around and went back to talking about something.

We turned off the music and listened to their conversation.

"God it's the little things that are annoying about tour, small beds not great food cause we can't cook. I mean full kitchen on the bus and no chef. Seriously not cool!" Michael said.

"AND I WONT LET THESE LITTLE THINGS SLIP OUT OF MY MOUTH!!!!"

Abi and I said at exactly the same time.

Again we got a weird look.

"Okay this time it was kind of creepy, same time, same part in the song." ash said.

"We do that--"

"A lot." abi finished.

"It's crazy" I said

"What?"

"We finish eachothers"

"Sandwiches"

"Ok it's crazy how that actually applies in real life." I said.

we laughed and then came up to Abi's house.

She looked so happy to see it again. I had her dog Molly at my house. She let me have her when she was moved to Australia.

She went up to the key pad and typed in the code to get into the garage.

The garage was exactly as she had left it. two surfboards in the corner, four bikes, three scooters, a skate board, and a black car. All hers.

We went inside. It was the same in there too, I had put all the mail on the counter so it was a bit messy there.

She ran to her room and hopped on her bed.

"God I missed you." she said into her pillow. I seriously think she was talking to the house.

Then she slowly got up. walked to her parents old room. oh no. not again. i didn't stop her though. she opened the door. it revealed the room as it was last. a bed made, a closet full of clothes, a dresser with her moms jewlry, and her moms vanity area. The only different thing was on her moms vanity there were five rings. her moms engagement ring, wedding band, her step dad's wedding band, and her dad's wedding band, and her step moms wedding band. she went over and picked each ring up individually. feeling the white gold of her moms engagement ring, and her wedding band. The gold of her step dad's wedding band, her step moms ring, and her dad's silver and a type of stone wedding band.

All of a sudden she ran over and crossed to her moms jewlery drawer and pulled out two extra chains. on one she put her mom's wedding rings and her step dads, and on the other she put her dad's and step moms.

I heard her whisper under her breath, "until death do us apart"

Then she hooked both necklaces around her neck and let them settle. I followed her over to the closet and watched as she grabbed her moms old shirt held it up to her and smelled it, hugging it to her chest. then she left the room, I followed behind her closing the door. the boys were sitting on the couches and chairs in her living room. she sat down in a chair and I squeezed in next to her.

She then turned and hugged me really tight, I could feel her tears wetting my shoulder.

After five minutes she got up and wiped her eyes.

"Sorry" she said quietly to me.

"It's okay, I understand." I said back to her.

Michael stood up and came over. He pulled her to his chest and hugged her really tightly.

"I'm so sorry for what happened to your family. Me, the boys, mum, amy, we are all here for you." he then crouched down a bit to get to face level with Abi.

He picked up both of the necklaces.

"You see these rings. these are four people who loved you very much. they are all now in these rings and are going to come travel the world with you." he said.

She hugged him tightly again. "thank you" I heard her whisper.
