《Unknown》Nine: Blood Runs Thicker Than Water
Advertisement
Ali's POV:
As I marched off out of the theme park I could not be more irritated and tense, even if I tried.
Suddenly a strong force collided with me, sending me backwards and hitting my bum on the floor, scraping the skin on my thighs.
"My bad, I'm sorry. Here at least let me help you up beautiful." He said winking at me, which I could just about see through my sunglasses.
"It's you." I mumbled, it's Zoe's friend from the other day, what was his name? The one who gave me an ice cream...
"I'm sorry, do we know each other? I'm Finn." He held out his hand and helped me to my feet, I thought the guys name was Jack?
Am I seeing double now? Argh. He looked at me, and I looked at him back, the rides around us kept going on and made enough noise on top of the people screaming with excitement whilst we stood here just staring at each other.
"Finn! Come on we better get go-" I saw an almost identical face appear next to Finn, he paused for a moment and I took my eyes away from Finn and to his doppelgänger.
"You?" I said pointing at him, he stood there with his eyes wide, those eyes which are a shade of emerald green, how his hair was perfectly slicked back. He smiled to me and I smiled back, whilst Finn stood there just looking back and forth.
"You." Jack said, smiling slightly and he seemed happy to see me, I wish I could say the same for him considering last time I saw him I let him buy me an ice cream and then walked off.
"Do you two know each other by any chance?" Finn asked, as he pointed to us.
"Yeah, we met at Zoe's door, she came asking about some charity wasn't it?" Jack asked me. I stood there, my mind froze as I tried to trace my mind back to the other day when we first met.
"Oh yeah, I erm was collecting on behalf of that charity, you know the one." I rambled, the two looked at each other then back at me. "I'm guessing you guys are related other wise this is a weird coincidence." I said letting out a quite and shy laugh, trying to move the conversation on away from our first meeting.
"We are twins, which I'm sure you can tell. I'm Jack and he's Finn." Jack said holding out his hand for me to shake, which I happily shook and pulled my hand away, quickly glancing back to see if Caspar or Zoe were in sight at all.
"You looking for someone?" Finn asked as I turned back to face the two of them.
"No. I just thought I heard my name that's all." I lied, it seems like the only thing I am convincing at right now.
"And what would your name be love?" Jack asked raising an eyebrow at me, which resulted in me blushing, like I usually do.

"Clara." I told the two of them, it's better they know a fake name as opposed to them knowing my name and potentially telling Zoe and Caspar about me, maybe even Alfie which I can't allow to happen. Not with Caspar playing up, what is with him anyway?
"So fancy hanging out with us? We're going to meet some friends I'm sure they won't mind if we brought a guest." Finn suggested, looking at Jack smiling who looked annoyed at his brother then turned to me smiling awkwardly.
"I well, I don't want to impose and I've got to get going anyway, I have someone who I'm well trying not to see. It was nice seeing you Finn, Jack." I told them then walked past them and quickly sped up.
Zoe's POV:
"Zoe? You coming?" Caspar asked as he began to line up for the next ride, there's a long enough wait for me to think things through about all of Ali and Caspar and the idea of there being a 'them'.
"Yeah, I'm erm coming in a minute. I'm just waiting for the twins and Louise, they should be meeting us in a minute." I told him, trying to keep a bit of distance between us as opposed to being in a claustrophobic line for a long period of time.
I looked ahead rather than focusing on Caspar behind me, I could see Louise in sight and began to run towards her, before Caspar had the chance to interfere. "Chummy, I need a word, now." I told her as she looked concerned and walked with me away from the line and to somewhere more quite and private.
"What's wrong?" She asked as she sat down next to me with an ice cream for each of us. I take mine and begin to lick at happily. "Chummy, you've got ice cream on your nose." Louise says as I try to lick it off causing us both to laugh, then for me my laughter turns to tears within seconds.
"It's Ali, something's wrong with her, again." I sniffed and wiped my eyes.
"What do you mean again?" Louise asked with a concerned expression.
I couldn't tell Louise Ali's secret, it would break her heart to hear it let alone repeat it.
Flashback:
"Zoe Zoe!" I heard Ali call for me and I put my magazine down and looked over to her. She had a letter in her hand and a doll, I raised an eyebrow at her, slightly confused by what she was doing.
"What are you up to Ali?" I asked her sitting down on the floor with her.
"I'm going to find my friend, the one the voices are telling me about." She said happily, Ali hasn't ever mentioned voices before, maybe I should get Joe.
"Hold on Ali, let me go get Joe, he can help." I got up and found Joe watching TV, I turned it off and he moaned. "I don't care what you were watching, something's up with Ali." I told him, mum and dad popped out to the shops, leaving me in charge for the afternoon.

As Joe followed me upstairs I explained to him what Ali told me, he looked as concerned as I was when she told me.
We both went into my room and sat down on the floor with Ali who smiled at both of us, like she usually does. "Ali, can you tell us what these voices are telling you?" Joe spoke up.
"They said I need to go. That I have to find my friend, my friend is someone important to me that I don't know, but I have to find my friend as if I don't bad things will happen." She told us, and I felt a shiver down my spine, I looked to Joe and both of us had no idea.
"Okay Ali, how about we all watch TV until mum and dad get home okay?" I told her and she nodded.
As we reached the living room Joe grabbed my arm and pulled me back away from Ali as she sat down and watched the tele. "What is with her? When are mum and dad back?" He asked, with an alarm.
I tried to keep calm on all of our behalves, if you want to set an example to your crew don't sink the ship.
"They won't be too long, we just need to keep an eye on her, it'll be fine, I know it will." I said and smiled to Joe, we both went and sat down next to Ali, if only what I said was true.
End of flashback.
When we told our parents, Ali had to speak to someone, she was only 8 and very confused, she was prescribed medication and the voices stopped, if she forgot to take the medication the voices became angry, that's how she always said it was for her, that's why she likes being busy.
"It's nothing, right now Ali seems to be, well not her usual self." I tell her in the best way I can describe, it is true that Ali isn't her usual cheerful self with a hint of sarcasm, she seems afraid and alerted all the time, I hope she has been taking her medication.
"Okay well everyone has off days, you can't blame her if she needs space and seems upset every now and again." Louise explains, it does sound reasonable, but Ali always tells me if she has a problem or is upset, even if it's a quick phone call or face time.
"I guess you're right, we better get back to Caspar." I tell her flatly, I don't believe Caspar over Ali, but maybe I'm just trying to get used to the idea of my baby sister dating my brothers room mate.
"Hey guys there you are, look who's here!" Caspar says excitedly pointing to Jack and Finn who I hug and smile to, trying to keep happy and not make anyone think otherwise about myself.
"How come you took so long getting here?" Louise asked the twins, Finn raised an eyebrow to Jack who scratched the back of his head and both remained silent, how unlike themselves.
"We bumped into someone." Jack said without any emotion in his voice.
"Yeah, Jacks girl who he keeps talking about." Finn told us and starting laughing, he doesn't mean Ali does he? Oh no Ali what have you gotten yourself into this time. I look to Caspar who has daggers for eyes and they are currently pointing to Jacks throat.
"So, what's her name?" I speak up, trying to block the daggers Caspar has right now.
"Oh, her names Clara." Finn told us, why is Ali giving a fake name, I glance at Louise and Caspar, who is currently on his phone, he better not be doing something idiotic.
"Is this, her?" Caspar asked as he held up his phone revealing a photo of him and Ali a few months ago smiling together in Brighton.
Jack and Finn shared a look, this is a bad sign, it's worse than a bad sign it isn't one of those signs which tell you the road is bumpy ahead, it's the sign that tells you there will be a long twisted road with a chance of destruction up ahead.
"That's her, how do you know her Casp?" Jack asked as Caspar put his phone away back into his pocket, don't say something stupid Caspar, not now.
"She's my girlfriend, and Clara isn't her name. Is it Zoe?" Caspar turned to face me, as did the twins in confusion.
I froze not knowing how to respond, I can't exactly say yes, if I do then who knows what Caspar may reveal about Ali, and if I lie what will happen then? Maybe my best bet is to play dumb.
"No clue sorry Casp." I said patting his shoulders. He raised an eyebrow at me then chuckled and went all childish.
"Oh come on Zoe, of course you know Ali, I mean it's not like she's a stranger to you now is it?" Caspar told me in a childish irritating voice, I took a deep breath and tried to remain calm, I'm not letting him reveal the truth about Ali.
"Well maybe I met her a few times, its possible." I simply told him, remaining calm and convincing.
"Oh really Zoe? As I'm sure that blood is thicker than water, don't you think?" Caspar suggested, I'm hoping that Jack and Finn aren't listening intently as if they are, Caspar may have just revealed that Ali is a Sugg after all.

Oh, I also forgot to mention that I have taken inspiration from waaaay tooo many novels that I liked, and while there aren't any specific ones that I based this upon there are a few that I definitely took inspiration from like : the author's POV, chronicles of the heavenly demon [you can probably see where this inspired me ;)], etc.
