Emma's POV

Today we are moving to Santa Monica. I'm so ready to move. I love living in New York, but something horrible happened here that I would like to forget. Let's not talk about that. Anyway, I have five older brothers, well not really, I have a twin brother but he claims he's my older brother even though we are the same age. He is annoying, he is only five minutes older.

"Emma"!!! My mom shouted, "Have you packed yet". The moving truck will be here soon" and we have a flight to catch"

"Yes mom I have packed I'm coming down. Can someone help
Me carry these things down" they are heavy" I shouted back,

"Riley, Jacob go and help out Em!"
my mum beckoned

I was deep in my thoughts, so much so that I didn't hear a knock on the door.
"Emma, are you alright In there"!! I quickly wiped my eyes. " yeah I'm okay!! Come in" I said trying to hide the fact I was crying.

"No, you're not! You've been crying" said Jacob.

"No, I wasn't". I'm fine!". "  you can't lie to me, our twin powers are too strong". Said Jacob "what's wrong you can tell us," said Riley.

" I'm Just scared, I don't want a repeat of what happened here" 0r what if I meet a...

"Emma chill nothing is going to happen to you okay! We won't let you get hurt again" "I let it happen once I won't let it happen again," Jacob said.

"Yeah Em, you've got five brother's nothing will happen to you again." It wouldn't be so bad if you meet your mate, he can also protect you." Riley said.

"No way !! She is not allowed to date until she is 30" Andrew, Christopher, James, Jacob and Dad shouted.

"Don't mind them, sweetie, you can date anyone you want, and your mate will love and cherish you." said mom.

"How can he love me" I'm a fragile human and I'm weak" I cried.

"Honey no your not you've been through a lot it's okay" he will
Understand what you've been through" Adam said.

"Okay thanks, everyone, you made me feel much better!!" "But we have to leave now or we will miss our flight," I said.

Jacob loaded the rest of my things to the moving truck. We finally finished packing everything up and closed the moving truck. We put the suitcases in the taxi. And made our way to the airport.

My favourite song starts playing on the radio. Pretty pink by Cimorelli. This song got me through some hard times. Jacob started singing along and I joined in.

Jacob/ Emma /both

There's more to you than the fact that you're dark inside
There's more to you than the pain
that you're trying to hide
You say you like to party, that's your choice
But there's a lot more you can say with your voice

You think it's all about what it looks like
You want the world to know what you look like
But what your life is, that's what really counts
It's okay if they find out

You're not okay
You've lost your way
You've got bills to pay
You've had a long hard day
You don't feel right
In this pointless fight
So give it up
This is your life

There's more to you than the fact
that you think you're tough
There's more to you on the days
when you've had enough
I know you wanna push everyone away
But that's only gonna cause you more pain

'Cause you don't have to do everything on your own
You've been going through a lot, all alone
You don't have to feel this forever
You've gotta tell them the truth

You're not okay
You've lost your way
You've got bills to pay
You've had a long hard day
You don't feel right
In this pointless fight
So give it up
This is your life

You're beautiful in more ways than you think
Even when your lips aren't a pretty pink
You're special, you matter
People care that you're not okay

You deserve the love you've been searching for
Lying hopeless on your bedroom floor
Open up that beautiful heart
Let the sun at your face

You'll be okay
You'll find your way
These things will change
You'll have your day
You'll be alright
You'll win this fight
Give up the game
Take back your life

You're beautiful in more ways than you think
Even when your lips aren't a pretty pink
You're special you matter
People care that you're not okay
You deserve the love you've been searching for
Lying hopeless on your bedroom floor
Open up that beautiful heart
Let the sun at your face

Everyone in the car was silent. "Why are you guys silent" Jacob and I shouted".
"Guys that was really beautiful, we are just shocked. Emma, you haven't sung since the accident." We just thought you would never sing again." Adam explained.

"Yeah I know, but I missed singing, I shouldn't give it up, even if he wanted me to, "I said.

"I'm happy to hear that, I love singing with you baby sis," Jacob said while hugging me.

Anyway, we arrived at the airport. We checked in our luggage. We are using the family private jet. The private jet is called The Brown's airlines. I know my mom wasn't very original. We said goodbye to James, who is going to Michigan as he is going to university there. I'm going to miss him. Andrew and Christian still live with us, even if they are old. In our family, you only leave the house when you're married. You could say that we are rich, but I don't like to boast about it. Anyway, we boarded the plane. 6 hours later we arrived in lax.

We collected our baggage and went into our limo. And went to our new house, or should I say mansion.

"Wow it's huge, MY brothers said. "I know right" I replied. We all ran inside. I got the second biggest room because I'm the princess of the family. Actually, it's because it's the furthest away from the boys. How I like it.

We all are sleeping in sleeping bags as our beds and furniture don't come until tomorrow.

I'm so nervous,  I start at my new school next week. I really hope I get a fresh start.
