A quiet pause filled the room, with only the sounds of them catching their breath, before Amara spoke up.
"Reesh finally agreed hmmm?" Said Amara.
"Yeah. It took some convincing but he came around." Said Till.
"That's good. Family first even if they aren't related by blood." Said Amara.
"Speaking of family, when did these two join?" Asked Till when a giant fur ball brushed up against his leg.
"I kinda adopted them around... I think it was three days after you dropped me off. Licht I found in an alleyway. I mean how can you not like him, he looks like he's always smiling! For Sterne I adopted her after taking Licht to the vet. She's a high content wolf German Shepherd mix and they were going to put her down. You don't mind sharing right?" Said Amara realizing there suddenly were two dogs in their lives after the shit storm that happened.
"Of course not. They seem very friendly and whatever makes you happy as long as I get some of that love." Said Till.
Like they understood what Till said the two started barking and wagging their tails furiously as they jumped up to give Till kisses. 
"It seems they like you too." Laughed Amara as Till's face got covered in dog slobber.

A month later Amara decided to move in with Till.  Of course nothing in her family can get done without some dramatics and all that.  Geoff flipped his shit once she told him that his little daughter was now a grown ass woman and ready to move out.  The man shut down like a computer that couldn't run a program, dropping the can of Diet Coke in his hands.  Once he booted up again, it was straight to shouty Geoff.
"What! When!?"
"In a week. Till's already got his place ready." Said Amara as the rest of her family trickled in.
"Congratulations Amara! Must be an exciting time for you." Said Jack, supportive of the change.
"Congratulations!? Our little girl is moving the fuck out! I'll never be able to see her again!" Shouted Geoff getting a bit high at the end.
"Chill dad, I'm only a twenty minute ride away and the farthest is their house out in the countryside." Sighed Amara at her dad.
"Aw I'm gonna miss ya." Said Gavin pouting.
"Seriously bro? There is something called technology, we can video call each other everyday." Said Amara who was internally screaming at the tech boy's stupidity.
"Oh yeah. Alright I'm good." Said Gavin in a complete one-eighty of his last sentence.
"See Geoff, everyone is in for Amara moving out." Said Jack looking at everyone.
"You can all go suck a dick." Grouches Geoff but relenting.
"Maybe later." Snickered Amara.
"Oh god please don't. I don't wanna hear what ever the fuck you two get up to." Groaned Geoff.
"Alright dad." Laughed Amara before getting her family to move the boxes.

It was a peaceful life with Till.  While he was busy writing music or poems, Amara was at work helping one of her brothers manage their company.  By night the two were stuck together like flies on a fly trap and sometimes even a little closer than close.  On occasion, Amara would return home so Geoff would stop panicking and giving everyone a headache.  The rest of the time was spent getting to know the rest of the guys better and dispel any lingering questions they had about her past.  Even Reesh had loosened up a bit and stopped ignoring her everytime she was around.  During that time, Amara had picked up German pretty well and could hold a conversation with Flake without the need for a translator.
