Okay, I know it's been over a month since I've updated but Christmas just passed and with school and babysitting it's hard to fit in time to write, read and hang out with friends. I'm so sorry it's been so long. I wanted to say thanks for over 1,000 views on this story. I am really proud and I couldn't have managed it without you guys. Anyways, if you haven't already, check out my Christina X Dylan story and thanks again.

The next few days had come and gone quickly, things between the families was more and more tense each day and I could tell something bad was going to happen. Whether it is the family breaking up or William and I breaking up.

I got up out of my bed Friday morning, exactly a week after the party had happened, getting ready for school. It only took me a few minutes and I went down to join the others for breakfast. William and I hadn't spoken since that night and I hated it so much. We had royally screwed our whole family and we knew it now. And he was acting on it more than I was.

After breakfast, we went to yet another uneventful day of school, until the very end of the day for elections.

I walked into the auditorium, sitting down in between Christina and Dylan as we watched in hopes that William would win. William and his opponent, Pete Riley, stood on stage together, waiting for the final votes to be tallied and everything to be finished up. After about five minutes, the principal joined them on stage.
"I've tallied every vote and William Beardsley is the winner." The principal stated. I looked at Christina, immediately hugging her as everyone began to clap for him. After a moment, we all began to file out of the auditorium. I looked around for William, spotting him with all of the younger kids. My heart immediately began to speed up and at the moment, I didn't care how suspicious it seemed, I ran up to him, jumping into his arms. "You won!" I said with glee. He smiled down at me, regaining our balance from my attack hug. "Yeah, I did." He said with a nod.

We stood out there and talked for a few minutes until we had to catch the bus, all of us getting on. I sat next to William, per usual, although I hadn't all week. Once the bus pulled up at our house, we all got out but Frank was standing in the walkway. "Dad, guess what happened-"Christina started but Frank cut her off. "I, um, have something to say." He started. I looked at him in wonder, although I already felt a rise of tears. "What is it?" Lau asked. "Helen and I have decided it'd be best if I did go out to sea, meaning you all will be going back home." He said, mainly speaking to the Beardsley kids. "No, please don't go." Aldo begged. I stood in the back beside William, tears still in my eyes. "Do something." I whispered but he just shook his head. "Hey, don't worry. If you everything need anything, I'm just a phone call away." Frank stated. "And that means all of you North kids." He added, getting up from his knee. After a minute he turned and walked off.
"What now?" Harry asked. "We go. Just like every other time. We pack up and go." William replied. I felt my heart break and ache in my chest hearing him say those words. I let the tears fall from my eyes, not caring to wipe them away. "I don't want to have to find another new mommy!" Ethan said. "I can't believe you're just going to give in and let this happen." I said, shaking my head. William looked to me, a sigh leaving his mouth. "I have an idea." He said. "Harry, Christina, Dylan, Kaoki, Jimi, and Phoebe come with me, you younger kids stay here and wait for Helen." William said, walking towards the boathouse.

I followed without hesitation, followed by the others. He grabbed out six life jackets, motioning towards the boat. "You have got to be kidding me." Christina said, crossing her arms. "Just come on." William replied, throwing the life jacket at her. She sighed, putting it on as the rest of us did the same, getting on the boat.

We road on the boat for about half an hour before we finally found Frank. When he saw us, I swear his eyes were about to fall out of his head. "What are you doing?" He yelled. "We want you to come home!" William shouted back. Frank looked to his shipmates, then down to us again. "It's too late for that." He stated, loud enough for us to hear. "It was us! We did all of those horrible things to break you and mom up!" I shouted. I watched him take a deep breath. "It's too la-"He started, looking in the direction of home. We all looked back too, to see the light of the light house on. A grin cracked across his face as he mumbled something I couldn't make out. "I'm coming home!" He shouted back.

He got on our boat and we road back home. Once we made it home, everyone began to hug and be happily reunited. I couldn't keep my eyes off of William and he glanced at me every often as well, throwing me smiles or winking. What really took me by surprise, though, was when he walked up, in front of our entire family and openly kissed me. No hiding, no secrets, no nothing. Just us kissing happily in sync. Consequences would come later, but they didn't matter right now. All that matter was my boyfriend.

I decided to give it a happy, but someone cliffhanger type of ending, since you guys will just have to find out how the family reacts to the kiss. I should update pretty soon, because I really miss writing but who knows. Anyways, there's only going to be a couple more chapters, so yeah.
