Taylor's POV
"Whew, you guys had no idea how long it took me to find that damn driveway!" I said, bursting into the house as if I had never left, hoping the surprise of seeing me would make them ignore my obvious nervousness.
There was a clatter of feet on the ground as everyone made their way to the front door and stood opposite me, staring, unsure.
Finally, Laddie ran over to me.
"Taylor!" He hugged me tightly. "I knew you'd come today. I had a dream about it, you know?"
I smiled at him, picking him up.
"What, no hugs from the rest of you?" There was a collective sigh as Mom walked away, Max following her. Suddenly, Marko started laughing.
"Dude, do you have any idea how much we could freak out David with this?" He said.
"David isn't here?" I said curiously; it was rare to find him alone.
Dwayne shook his head no, coming over to take Laddie from me.
"We should go freak him out then," I said, laughing evilly. I still felt bad for leaving like that, but I was never one to turn down an opportunity for a good prank. the boys nodded, walking past me.
Michael grabbed my arm as he did.
"Welcome back, little sis. I hope you've been doing okay."
"I'm fine, where's sam?"
"He's...uhm, out." Michael was obviously hiding something, so I gave him a look. "You'll see later, don't worry."
