3 Years Later

"Ally are you even listening."

"Huh what?"

"That's what I thought" she said with a bit of arrogance in her voice that proves she was a Conlon. "You were thinking about them again weren't you?" she whispered.

"Is it that obvious?" I asked.

"To me it is" she responded.

I sighed as I looked into her stormy blue eyes that always reminded me of her brother. "Yeah I was thinking about the day we left again. I'm starting to think your brother might have gambled away the key."

"Hey! My bruthah would nevah do dat!" she said with a bit of her New York accent breaking through.

I cracked a smile. "You're going New York again." I pointed out. She started to laugh we all loved our New York accents but my mom had told us we had to learn how to speak properly.

"Heya girls" Ashlyn said as she walked over.

"Hi Squirt." I responded. That got me a growl from her unlike the rest of us she hated her nickname.

"Don't call me that." She said in a low threatening tone.

"Come on Race gave you that name sis, wear it with pride.

"Just because you love our brother so much doesn't mean I have to." She replied haughtily.

Just as I was about to break her nose for insulting our brother so much, Emmaliegh came into the room.

"Ok you two break it up we don't need you two fighting again." Em was always the peace maker settling any fights between the rests of us.

"Fine." I replied sourly.

"Oh boy what did we miss" Cat asked as she and the other girls walked into the room.

"Me almost breaking Ashlyns nose" I replied as if was no big deal because to us it wasn't.

"Again?" Allisa asked sounding exasperated.

"Yes again" Em replied for me.

"You two really need to stop fighting" Angel finally piped in she had been watching the whole thing with little interest.

"Who asked you?" I replied a bit angry.

"Hey no need to get snippy with me. I was just saying what everybody was thinking."

"I agree with Angel" Abigail said "It's getting really annoying"

"Yeah what happened between you two you used to be inseperatable?" Allisa said.

"I grew up unlike someone." said Ashlyn with a cold glare my way. "I'm able to see who my brother really is just some good for nothing, poker playing, gambling addict!"

With those last words I jumped up and grabbed her by the hair and swung her around and got ready to really break her nose this time when I felt a strong hand around my wrist and an arm around my waist. "Let me go!" I screamed.

"No not this time" said a voice I knew all to well.

"Xander! If you don't let me go right now you'll be the one getting the broken nose!"

"Help me out here Alex!"

"I'm coming I'm coming."

It was at that time they realized I still had my sister by the hair.

"Angel get her to let go of Ashlyn" Alex said.

"I'm on it"

I felt pinch my wrist and I let go enough out of surprise for them to get Ashlyns hair out of my hand.

"Come on" Xander said slinging my body over his shoulder like a ragdoll and carried me up the stairs with me screaming bloody murder all the way. He sat me down it the bathtub and turned the water on. That shut me up real quick. "Ok, ok that's enough!" I yelled at him. He had on a smirk that only the King of Brooklyn could rival. I glared at him I hated it when he smirked.

"Will you ever learn?" he asked impatiently.

"She was insulting Racetrack again!" I retorted.

"You know she doesn't love your brother like you do. She sees him as the reason for you guys having to leave.

"I know but it still makes me angry. So when did you guys get here?"

"About two seconds before we heard you screaming bloody murder in the kitchen."

"Oh…I didn't know you guys were coming by tonight." I said trying to change the subject.

"Ashlyn didn't tell you guys?"

"What do you think?" I said with a glare.

"I know stupid question. Well go get dried off and dressed we're all going to the movies."

"Ok I'll be down in a minute go tell the other girls."
