"ABBY!!! ABBBYY WAKE UP!!!" Cali whined. I opened my eyes sleepily and squinted, seeing a blured vision of my little sister Cali, screaming in my ear. "Whatch it Cal you're gonna burst my eardrum soon." I mumbled grumpily into my pillow. "Sowwy" Was all she said innocently,"mummy told me to get you." She then turned around and skipped out of my room. "Thank god" I whispered to myself as I went back to my deep slumber.

A few minutes later I had finally got myself out of bed. I walked into the bathroom, stripped off my clothes and stepped hesitantely into the shower, still restless from my lack of sleep lastnight. I shuddered at the thought. I eased up a bit when I felt the tingle of warm water down my back. I was soon refreshed and reached for my soft white towel after rinsing all the strawberry scented shampoo out of my long brown hair.

As I walked out of the steamy bathroom on my way to my bedroom I heard loud whispers coming from the bottom floor. Being me, I tiptoed downstairs to try and evesdrop. "No Mike..she cant!" I heard. "But....I... Ok Ok i'll tell her. Love you to.... bye." She sighed, probably on the phone to Mike, my stepdad. I despise him, yep forget hate, despise. Sometimes I wonder if she doesn't feel the same way.... I was quickly snapped out of my daze by mother telling me to hurry up. I noticed how she was avoiding questions about the phone call. However she shoved me up the stairs to get dressed before I could even give anything a second thought.

I wipped open my wardrobe and stared at it blankly. I slipped the chosen clothes on after I eventually pulled out a blue and grey patterned tank top with a pair of dark denim shorts with converse to match. I walked over to the mirror and put on some pale pink lipstick and brushed a little mascara over my already-long lashes. My long mousy brown hair was quickly plaited into a messy fishtail braid to the side and I headed downstairs.

I shivered as I went down the stairs. Last night mum told me she had BIG news, but that she wasnt sure how i'de react. My heart raced at all the horrible things it could be that she has to tell me. "Nah" I told myself,you worry to much abbs. The one thing she had told me was that her and Mike were splitting up. I know its horrible, but I was secretly glad. I couldnt say hes my favorite person in the world. She said she wasnt sure how things would go from there so to be prepared. Today i found out what for..

"Hi mum!" Came my cheery voice from the bottom of the stairs.  

"Um..hi love..." Her voice seemed a little tense and shaky. "Can i talk to you?" She said forcing a smile. She took the crayons out of Cali's hand before even more mess was made and lead me into the kitchen. Now it was my turn to be nervous.

"I haven't been completely honest with you.." My mother said, trailing off. I stared at her, waiting. "You have a half brother! Louis Tomlinson...." She blurted out. "WHAT!!!!?!" I shouted. I looked at her for a while, my mouth just hung open. "How could you not tell me this! And now, why NOW????" I started flying questions at her, more confused than i have ever been in my life."Im sending you to go live with him in London. That way Mike cant get custody of you. You have 4 hours to pack your things before the cab gets here." She said, obviously sad about the situation.

I trudged upststairs. A world famous band i had never met before and now i was going to live with them? I wondered as i pulled out my phone to tell my best friend Tasha to immediately come over. I sighed heavily as i started packing up my old life..
