Chapter 5
We've all found our rooms and unpacked. Seth's is the one next to mine and our bathroom is joined, and the others are spread out around the house with similar room layouts to mine, except my room and mom's room are the only ones that have a balcony.
I walk out my room to the corridor when I get tackled by a small figure.
I look down to see Cory clinging to my legs, hiding himself behind them.
"Cory, what's up?" I say placing a hand on his shoulder.
Just then before he can say anything, screaming comes from the corridor
"LEXI!" Yells four voices, sounding scared and bundle into me making me stumble backwards.
"Guys, what's wrong?" I ask Tom, Joe, Jack, Lee and Cory who are all clinging to my legs looking scared.
"Chris., Chris said..." Cory starts and I frown.
"What did Chris say?"
"He told us there are...m-monsters in the closet of our rooms..." Joe whimpered.
I growl slightly and looked up in the direction they came from. Stupid Chris. Scaring the little kids, he's such an idiot.
I crouch down to their level "It's Ok. There are monsters." I say trying to sooth them "Chris is winding you up."
"You sure?" Tom whispers.
I look down at him and smile reassuringly "Yes. Positive" I say then smirk slightly "You wanna get him back?" I say and they all look at me.
I smile and stand back up "When I say, tackle him to the ground, Okay?" I say and they all nod smiling mischievously.
I smirk and head down the corridor to where they came from and they follow.
I push open a door to see Chris and Evan in there talking and laughing at what they obviously just did and I stand with my arms crossed by the door frame with the kids out of sight staying behind the wall.
"Chris, come here a sec" I say smiling innocently
He eyes me suspiciously "Why?"
I smile "I wanna show you something" I say unfolding my arms

He sighs and pushes himself up of his. Chris makes his way over towards me, I smirk and take a step back and when he's getting closer and glance at the boys "Now" I say and as quick as a flash they bundle into the room and jump onto Chris making him stumble backwards and topple onto the bed.
I laugh and glare at Chris "That's what you get for scaring little kids" I snap "You're mean Chris mean!" I glare at him as Evan cracks up laughing and Chris is being jumped on by the little ones.
"Okay.....okay....sorry" Chris splutters out between laughter and being jumped on and trying to push them off.
"Kids. I think you should try get to some sleep know. It's been a long day!" Mom's voice carries down the corridor as she comes up the stairs towards the room.
"Mom....help!" Chris whines struggling to get the five kids of him
I hear mom's footsteps then she appears in the room and smirks shaking her head "What you do to them this time?" She sighs walking over to the bed and pulling Tom off first
"He scared them mom." I say glaring at Chris
Mom shakes her head "Chris" She sighs and he just smirks standing up from the bed and from the kids.
"Right. Get to bed." Mom says pointing to the door and they grumble and slowly walk out the door "I'll come see you in a bit"
"Lexi come too." Tom pouts looking up at me
I smile and ruffle his hair "Course, go get your Pyjamas on." I say and he grins and runs along to his room.
I turn and step out the room too when mom says "Oh, Lexi, can I talk to you a second please." She says coming out the room too.
I look at her raising an eyebrow, "I'll be in my room, come in a bit" She says and turns walking down towards the big room at the end of the corridor.
I raise another eyebrow and glance back in the room to see Chris smirk.

"Oooh....what you done now Lex." Evan smirks and I roll my eyes following mom. I haven't done anything.
I get to mom's room and push open the double door leading into a big room, a king sized bed, balcony, closet, ensuite, TV, everything.
I see mom rummaging through some draws and go towards her.
"What's up mom?" I ask curiously
She turns and smiles and me and motions me to come follow her and sit on her bed.
I do hesitantly and sit down next to her, what is she doing?
She brings a small wooden box onto her lap.
"Lexi...honey.." Mom starts "I know that you didn't get to say goodbye to your dad, before we left this morning and I'm sorry that you didn't, I should have given you guys some time to" She says turning to face me and I advert my eyes to the floor.
"But honey, I want you to always feel close to him no matter how far we are away from his ashes" She says her voice breaking slightly and I lift my gaze to her, I hate seeing mom upset.
She opens the wooden box "So I would like you to have this" She says placing her hand in the box and bring a gold chain out.
She takes my hand and places something in it.
I look down to see a gold thin chain in my hand with a small gold heart shaped locket attached to the end.
My breath catches in my throat and I look up to mom wide eyed, "W-what no, no I can't take this mom" I say
She smiles sadly and picks it up from my hand opening up the heart shaped locket and then placing it back in my hand, to see a picture of my dad and me when I was about 3 I feel a lump rise in my throat as I bring it closer to me as my vision slightly blurs.
"It's for you Lexi, your dad got it for you when you were born and we made a promise to give it to you when you turn eighteen, but well...things changed."
"I have something for all the boys....but only Charles, Aston and Blake have one....obviously it isn't a heart locket.." She says chuckling softly
I never knew that......I never knew the three older ones had a picture of them and dad when we were little.
I feel a single warm tear fall down my check as I look at the picture in the locket in my palm and bite my lip looking back up to mom.
I wrap my arms around her neck hugging her and clutching the small locket as she hugs me back
"Love you mom" I whisper into her neck "I love him mom"
She hugs me tighter and rubs my back "I know, I know honey" She says her voice wobbling and she kisses the side of my head "He'll always be with you sweetie, always" She says as I pull back and give a slight nod and small smile closing the locket back up and standing up from the bed.
Mom squeezes my hand tightly and let's go smiling slightly at me with watery eyes.
I smile and turn to go back out before I collapse into tears.
I wipe my check and head to my room placing the delicate gold chain onto my dresser then turning to go to the boy's room to say goodnight.
I do then come back to mine and slip on some pyjama shorts and tank top not bothering to shower, I'm too tired.
I hear my bathroom door open and Seth comes in, using the bathroom as a short cut to mine from his.
I smile at him and then go towards him and wrap my arms around him hugging him tight and he hugs be back, obviously seeing that I need it.
"Night, Lex" He says pulling back and kisses my hair "Love ya" He smiles
"Love you too" I smile back letting go and he goes back to his room through my bathroom.
I smile slightly and climb into bed.......Seth always knows when I need a hug.

A Challenge To An Arranged Marriage
"Ian? Please. Why are you not answering me?" Lisa shouted raising her voice to probably gain his attention."You want to know the truth?" Ian replied shifting his head away from the painting to look directly at her, staring into her eyes. While he started taking small steps in her direction."You really want to know why we are here." He asked again still moving forward. His voice was deep and hoarse and the way he was looking at her, made her take some steps back that was until her back hit the wall. Without saying anything he leaned forward placing both of his arms around her so that she was now trapped between him and the wall. He moved his face forward directly in front of her.Lisa could feel his hot breathe on her neck as he bent forward to place his mouth on her neck, placing a tender kiss there. Lisa took a large gulp of air trying to control the tingles, she was feeling down there."I was jealous, Lisa," He breathed out in her ears placing yet another kiss just below her earlobe. "I was jealous when you took hold of Cole's hand. I was jealous when you let that piece of shit place his hands on you. I was jealous when you danced with him. I was jealous, Lisa, very jealous." He continued as he removed his mouth from her neck, leaning forward to stare directly into her eyes."So let me tell you the truth. I am a very possessive man, Lisa and I don't share what's mine. And when it comes to you I certainly can't control myself." He concluded as he closed the gap and placed his lips on her.

Briar watched him with curiosity as he shuffled closer. He stumbled when he neared her but managed to steady himself before he fell. He slightly blushed and stuck out his hand with the dandelion in it. He murmured, "For you."She felt something odd happen in her chest. It felt like fluttering, she thought, but she tried to push these feelings away. She didn't want to acknowledge them. She didn't want them to be real. //Briar was just trying to survive her schooling at Hogwarts with the constant trouble her fellow students seemed to start, but the Ministry of Magic was determined to help each student find their soulmate through a series of letters and hints over their years at Hogwarts.
