This is a remake of a old story called Make it Work. I hope that this is a lot better than the older one.

The characters are the main characters from ToT and AP. Molly (Lily) and Kevin (Ian) are twins. Angela and Kasey are older brother and little sister.

It's always in Lily's point of view, but it switches every now and again

I don't own anything nor will I ever

What had we done? We didn't belong here on this island. I glanced around, seeing all of the stuff we packed around the house in front of us. It wasn't much, but our father can do some miracles. I sighed, trying to think of how to make the situation better.

"GAH!" A voice cried out, a hand popping out from the boxes. I started laughing and pulled the hand up. My twin brother came out, his hair and glasses out of place. "I got lost in there. Dad packed too much."

"I didn't think it was that much really."

Ian furrowed his brow, but shrugged. It took a while to get all the boxes inside, and soon we were only left with two boxes. They were over packed, the edges sticking out and it was open at the top. Packing peanuts were slipping out of the spree. "Wow." I said, giving a swift kick to the side of the most heaviest looking one.

"Ow! Dammit, the box says fragile!"

I screamed just out of shock. I wasn't expecting the box to talk back! Ian whipped out a pocket knife and sliced the tape off. Then he dove his hand in the box, pulling out one of the last people I expected to see by the back of his shirt. "Kasey! What the hell!" I yelled, balling my hands up.

Kasey was on of my friends from the city. He was a alcoholic and a major one at that. He drinks so much he has become immune to it, and hardly ever gets hangovers. It's not good for his health and he knows that, but his parents just didn't really care what he did. They never did. The old companion tripped while trying to get out and face planted into the box right beside it. The sudden pressure made the contents of the other overflowing box spill out, revealing another body.

Ian chuckled, helping the young girl who came out. "Having a fun ride, Angela?"

Angela was Kasey's little sister and my closest friend. She was such a sweet and shy girl, but she had her random moments too. With packaging peanuts in her hair, she stood up. "Boy it was stuffy in there." She coughed. When she locked eyes with me she squealed happily, 'glomping' me. "Lily! Oh my god don't you ever leave me again! Kasey is too stupid to just take another boat ride here!"

"Oi!" Kasey yelled from the ground.

I laughed with Angela as her brother mumbled while standing up, dusting off dirt. "Come on let's check out the house."

"Might as well, since we'll be living here." Kasey snorted.

"Whoa whoa whoa. Who said you were living with us."

"Lily..." Ian sighed.

I glared at Kasey who just gave me a smirk while crossing his arms over his chest. "Did you expect us to sleep in the barn?"

"Might as well. I'll be miserable if you live inside with me. Besides I don't even think four people can live here. It's such a quaint house for two."

Angela puckered her bottom lip out. "You don't want me living with you guys?"

Ian patted her head. "Of course we do. Don't we Lily. They are our FRIENDS and FRIENDS help other FRIENDS out. Let's just check the house already." With that my twin brother opened the door and we all crowded inside, gazing around.

It was pretty small, probably only meant for two people. The walls were a nice brown shade and the hardwood floors were a little dusty, but a little sweeping would fix that. A lone bed and a table beside it was in the upper right corner and a small kitchen parallel it. Other then that it was pretty bare.

"Well...damn." Kasey sighed, rubbing the back of his neck. "It's really boring in here."

"At least the last person to live here spared the bed for us, which by the way I'll be sleeping on." I noted. "Angela and I can share. We brought some blankets for you guys to build a nest on the ground or something."

Angela hopped over to the bed and bounced on it a couple of times before a loud squeal made everyone jump. The support beams holding the mattress up gave away and the bed plummeted to the ground. She sat there, shaken, but okay. "I have the sudden need to go on a diet now." She mumbled, pulling her legs up to her chest. I patted her head like Ian did a while ago.

"It was bound to happen sooner or later. Besides you're skinny enough as it is. Going on a diet would make you disappear."

The rest of the day we spent putting the boxes away and cleaning up the dirty house. After that we settled on a dinner consisting of what snacks Angela had brought on her bow ride and some wild berries we found outside. We all went to bed still hungry.

Kasey was really restless. I watched from the bed as he wiggled around in every which way trying to get comfortable on the floor, but to avail. After that he just stood up and quietly walked outside. Being the concerned person I was, I slipped out from the bed and followed him, seeing him sitting in front of the house staring at the moon.

"Did I wake you? Sorry." He said numbly. I waved a hand.

"Nah I was already awake anyway. Angela was moving around just like you so I couldn't fall asleep either."

He nodded and continue to stare at the rock shining in the sky. "Why...why move? I mean, the city isn't the safest place in the world, but this place just seems a little boring."

"I was sick of the spoiled life Kasey. You would feel the same way if you lived with our mother. I like this place anyway, no one asked you to come."

Kasey chuckled, giving me a hug despite how I constantly gave him a hard time about being here. "You would have missed me and you know it."

"Well maybe a little bit."

"By the way," He said as he released me from the hug. "I saw that there is a Carpenter place just ahead. Up that path actually." He said, pointing forward past the small pond. If you looked hard enough you could see the waterfall and bridge going into a new part of the island. "Maybe we have enough money to spring for a couch and maybe some chairs and tables?"

I shrugged. "I dunno. Depends on how nice they are."

"Well I'm feeling more sleepy. Let's try to get some sleep."

"Alright...night."

()()()()

The very next morning Angela and I set out to the bridge me and Kasey were talking about yesterday. We had bribed Ian into lending us all the money he had to help pay for the furniture. After we crossed the bridge we both gasped at the same time. This area was huge! Not to mention there were house built into the mountain.

The first building to the right of us must have been the carpenters. It had work benches, axes, and wood surrounding it so we only figured. As I knocked on the door, I heard a large dog barking. We flinched back, thinking it would bust through the door at any moment.

"Bo, hold Boss down so he doesn't trample whoever is at the door." A deep voice said.

"Yes master I got him."

The door opened and a rather hefty man stood there looking down at us. "Sorry about that. Boss gets excited when new people come. Please, come inside."

We nodded and walked into the store, the smell of freshly chopped wood almost soothing in a weird way. Holding back a large white dog by the collar was a kid about 15. He had blond hair and the cutest freckles I've ever seen. "Hello. I'm Bo, and this is Boss. He's a friendly dog honest." He chuckled. Angela cooed, going over to pet the big doggy who quickly melted by her touch and rolled onto his back, whining for a belly rub.

"Uh hi! I'm Lily and that's my friend Angela. We just moved here yesterday and we were kinda hoping for some furniture?"

The man nodded and I found myself staring at his blue mustache. I must admit it was pretty cool looking. "Well you came to the right place. What are you looking for?"

"Oh uh a couch, a table, and maybe some chairs?"

"You don't really sound so sure."

"I'm just scared about the price."

He chuckled heartily. "Don't worry. As a welcoming gift it will be free of charge."

My eyes lightened up. "R-Really? Thank you so much...uh...oh I don't know you're name."

"Name's Dale. I own this place. That's Bo as you know and I also have a son who seems to be sleeping in again. Bo, can you wake him up please? He needs to meet these ladies."

Bo stood up and nodded, heading into the back room to fetch this son of Dale's. Angela was talking weirdly to Boss and I just giggled. Dale even laughed a little at the sight of his big dog acting like a puppy. "He is very affectionate despite his size. He seems to be taking quite a liking to you, Angela."

She smiled, stroking his fur with care. "Boss is sooooo cute! I think I wanna take him home!"

"He isn't our dog Ange." I said.

"You can visit him as much as you like if you want. He sure would enjoy the company."

The door suddenly flew open and Bo returned, looking pissed off. "Luke is a jerk." He huffed, storming into the kitchen area. Dale sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose.

"Be right back." He said before going into the back where Bo once was. After a few seconds we heard yelling.

"Ow ow ow! D-Dad quit pulling my ear! I'm awake already!"

Angela giggled again. I just rolled my eyes. "I bet this guy is like Kasey, Angela."

"Why do you say that?"

"Well he is probably ignorant. He sleeps in till 12 so he must be lazy or something. I don't think I'm going to like-"

My words will quickly stopped when I saw a guy around our age step out, rubbing his ear. He looked like Dale, same blue hair and all, but it was hidden under a flame bandana. He wore a red vest and a black tank top under it. Ripped jeans and brown boots on the bottom half and a shark shark tooth necklace around his neck. He was...cute.

My heart started pounding when he locked eyes with me. "Oh hey sorry. I didn't know new people were here. No one new comes around very often. I'm Luke by the way! The most epic person you'll ever meet on the island." He winked. A blush settled over my face and I looked down at my feet to keep him from seeing it. Why was it so hard to talk right now?

"I'm Angela and this is Lily. It's very nice to meet you."

"Luke." Dale started. "Will you show these nice young ladies around town. I'm sure they would appreciate a tour."

He nodded. "Sure thing pop! I'll be back whenever." He looked at me and then Angela before opening the door for us. We shuffled away and followed Luke towards a mine cart. "Hop in."

Angela visibly swallowed. "I-I'm going to pass. I need to do some things back home anyway." She muttered. I glared at her, kinda peeved she was leaving me alone with this guy. I couldn't even speak and she had to go? Ugh... "I'll catch up with you guys later. I promise." She gave me a smile before walking back in the direction we came, leaving me and Luke by the cart.

I ran excuses through my head to get out of doing this, but he had lifted me by the waist and placed me into the cart. "H-Hey!" I yelled, my face redder then ever. "I can get in by myself."

"You looked kinda frozen so I helped ya!" He sat behind me, pulling the lever down to start the ride. Once it was going as fast as it could he started whooping. I couldn't help but laugh a little and soon I felt his hands on my arms. he lifted them in the air like he had his. The cool wind didn't even douse the warmth I felt from his touch.

Things were going to get interesting...
