At every angle of me there were cowering paparazzi dying to get a word out of me. But I had strict orders not to to speak due to a minor incident once upon a time.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWnrff0ER5
Really though how was I supposed to know that the hot detective staying in one of our guest rooms was top secret.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6MUBL4ucL
Long story short we lost 2 (irrelevant) allies because of the slip up.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvtYD6JEhy
We finally made it back to the black Chevrolet and I took of my heels as soon as I got in the back.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurP8Sa4SqX
"Why do I have to where heels all the time , I'm already tall Josephine," I leaned over 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84cRMbEBH5
"So secret service can catch you if you try to run off," Grace muttered as she put in smaller earrings .870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8dJxfrmC4
"It's not safe that you think I can't run in heels. I can beat your ass in heels too so next time mine your own business. I was asking Josephine," I remarked.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzaigLqvO6
"Don't talk to your big sister like that and put your seatbelt on Vivienne ," my father chimed in.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvvdi96lBA
I wasn't talking to you either , I wanted to say.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoRJ4JGfiW
I sat back down and platted Verity's hair through the headrest.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIn0LDYZmj
The car was quiet again except for the quit hum of the air conditioner. 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcH014KeIA
As soon as we arrived at the the house I went into my room and changed out of the bathroom blazer and midi skirt Grace put me in and tried to take off the silver necklace. But my hair was stuck tangled with it. Untangling it did more damage than good since I had a fist sized knot in my hair.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Oe69bGsyJ
I let out a growl of frustration and look in the bathroom for scissors. There was none so I checked in Verity's stationary pouch but with my luck she didn't have any there. Their were scissors in the kitchen but the cook wouldn't let me use them. something or the other about sanitation. I put my pride aside and knocked on Graces door.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3lYZG0Q7D
" Do you have scissors, there's a necklace stuck in my hair,"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIYqGyAG7H
"Pull it out," She said without even looking my way.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXu7VFyQS8M
"My hair doesn't work like,"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8pYMupyNG
"Then that's your business, leave me alone,"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZZ7qfFEwL
How hard was it to find scissors. Maybe their was a razor or an axe or something in the storeroom. All the way at the back of the house their was the stair way upstairs to the attic. My hair really didn't need anymore damaging and the heavy silver was starting tug on it.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlHqKWwqse
The attic was dark and dusty. If there was any electricity here I couldn't find the light switch so i drew the curtains of the window. I had only been here once when Verity and I were playing hide and seek. She never founded so i doubt even she knew about it. The space was wide and everything was organised up on shelves.Old pots and pans, Wires, empty boxes, forgotten toys and things we didn't need lying around the house. 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYX1CNBl7cW
A Container labels 'tools' caught my eye so I reached for it. I wasn't used to not being able to reach things so it came as a surprise to me when my hands just grazed the bottom of the box. Taking it as a challenge I hopped up and down like an idiot, trying to get the container. 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGKTqo4MSe
My feet landed on a loose floorboard and I felt like i had fallen through the whole storey. But I had only slipped on the floorboard and shifted it out of its place.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeljIorRdGO
"I should really go on that diet," I muttered to my self as I massaged my right foot. I went to put the floorboard back but my eyes caught the flash of something metal under it. I lifted the thin slab all the way and was met with a large collection of papers and notebooks. The flash was from the ferrule of a pencil. But my attention had shifted somewhere else.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgD5c1Iq4H
On the label of a black and white composition book, discoloured with age was my birth mothers name printed in cursive handwriting. I opened the book and a loose page fell out. It looked like a story. I noticed it was dated almost a year before my birthday.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XVJlrn1z5

Phia isn't a stranger to Stevie's outbursts. But this is different. Stevie is sitting on the Wheeping Tree moving her hands animatedly to justify her words. Not that she needs to. Stevie is a talker. Talkers are good at getting things. Even things they don't want. 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSExoUwcoH
"Stevie, I don't understand what you're trying to say," Phia finally says. 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Pe9Dm6zin
Her dark hair is dancing behind her and it looks soft. Phia looks soft but she really isn't. Her words are sharp and her gaze is warm. Warm like when you open a hot oven and you forget how to breathe when you're face is too close.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35UEEzPfK7
"Phia, i'm screwed. Phia i'm pregnant," Stevie almost whispers.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wHY2UGVEb
Stevie who makes the sun shine look faint, has never looked so dim herself. Her red hair gathered in a bun above her head bobs with her as she lets out a defeated sigh.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV09qCIPInP
"Who?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxkXSE8Lsa
Phia seems to have lost her ability to speak. After all Stevie is the talker.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HBPBLvOzX
"You're making me sound like a slut Phia. You already know it's Jules',"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfWGv45qqX
"But it can't be,”870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yqEEMpHvW
Stevie now bothered the fact that phia thought it could be someone else's replies, "Why can't it be?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcPNiuPWtJ
"Don't get defensive it's just that so is Lyn,"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCN3y8937g
"Jules'?"870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KZGRloTrx
Phia nods.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSgojWjjwz
"What's mine," 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJyCscchGo
Jules has arrived with Reece and where Jules goes, Lyn follows so she isn't far behind them."870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhIl1gRPUJ
"The award for the biggest sissy in the 20th century. I can't believe you won't do it" Stevie says feigning to be untroubled.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwvA32jxFb
Phia looks between the three and prepares herself for the newest chapter of their friendship. 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHSOPaKYDq
"Finally decided to stop cursing and act like a lady,huh? Reece chimes in and grazes his hair through his dark hair.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2YGVB0zPA
"Why don't you go suck someone off at-" Stevie started.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2tXd5R6x8
"There's a Lyn here, language" Jules says.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZGxOZIL5I
Lyn blushes at the comment and fidgets with her long buttery blonde hair. You wouldn't think they were a couple with how formal they behaved around each other. 870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuHUgozyrF
Stevie the talker loses her desire to speak and jumps from The Wheeping tree landing between Jules and Lyn. She grabs Reece's arm and pulls him away from the argument he was having with Phia about the difference between communism and socialism.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvfEyyytji
"We have school," She announces and leaves without waiting for a reply.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOA8Sr3cPt
"What's her problem?" Jules questions.870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrswMfi2FK
"You fucked up Jules," Phia says finally as she gets up and leaves the two alone870Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjA6Q1hrYUi
