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.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhZTp1IL2Y
Really though how was I supposed to know that the hot detective staying in one of our guest rooms was top secret.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsH5khAjHOv
Long story short we lost 2 (irrelevant) allies because of the slip up.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWwLs9OW1d
We finally made it back to the black Chevrolet and I took of my heels as soon as I got in the back.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCL7zrQ9bvz
"Why do I have to where heels all the time , I'm already tall Josephine," I leaned over 965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhaLQRYTHv
"So secret service can catch you if you try to run off," Grace muttered as she put in smaller earrings .965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWToLXA7m9j
"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.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKmeH5owWx
"Don't talk to your big sister like that and put your seatbelt on Vivienne ," my father chimed in.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS466t2cIcx
I wasn't talking to you either , I wanted to say.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAzNvD86uc
I sat back down and platted Verity's hair through the headrest.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKNqKjrHF0
The car was quiet again except for the quit hum of the air conditioner. 965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlolHG3omEv
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.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMBE4MaCAU
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.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQMfcEIEme
" Do you have scissors, there's a necklace stuck in my hair,"965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6yO4NGZqa
"Pull it out," She said without even looking my way.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEZAwWpEs9
"My hair doesn't work like,"965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTdjAmeKO7
"Then that's your business, leave me alone,"965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoDMZGYaig
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.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuaDxIdYzG
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. 965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfX0nA1db6
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. 965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPIJMBonfg
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.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZdM4cTol9
"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.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqq6fRpg8Tv
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.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PMXlglQCJ

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. 965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrFSn8czRF
"Stevie, I don't understand what you're trying to say," Phia finally says. 965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWY8K4fhlT
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.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl57AllbYi7
"Phia, i'm screwed. Phia i'm pregnant," Stevie almost whispers.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhEIZXzWJK
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.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHugoQwHIe
"Who?"965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmd8OmRWtTT
Phia seems to have lost her ability to speak. After all Stevie is the talker.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9NydWHbs8
"You're making me sound like a slut Phia. You already know it's Jules',"965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBzOMvFAN7
"But it can't be,”965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7gY8Rd8B3
Stevie now bothered the fact that phia thought it could be someone else's replies, "Why can't it be?"965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTyfWVn6mu
"Don't get defensive it's just that so is Lyn,"965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxq8w1Go57
"Jules'?"965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmew5qG772
Phia nods.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeHOGRk4VB
"What's mine," 965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp47pAx8epY
Jules has arrived with Reece and where Jules goes, Lyn follows so she isn't far behind them."965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvqYubjGq4
"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.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RzKniEBYJ
Phia looks between the three and prepares herself for the newest chapter of their friendship. 965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0Fqujmmil
"Finally decided to stop cursing and act like a lady,huh? Reece chimes in and grazes his hair through his dark hair.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvqiF1Yky1
"Why don't you go suck someone off at-" Stevie started.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhCDTytE1U
"There's a Lyn here, language" Jules says.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5coeidudrT
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. 965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0SuJ8oI81
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.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1kg5ilC53
"We have school," She announces and leaves without waiting for a reply.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGyopBIG7A
"What's her problem?" Jules questions.965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8nCAmEMEK
"You fucked up Jules," Phia says finally as she gets up and leaves the two alone965Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrlwtrXnHe
