Ok, so this chapter is basically a filler, so it's not too interesting, but it sort of ties the story together. I still want reviews, but this time I want 6. I am desperate for inspiration. C'mon, you can do it!

DISCLAIMER: I own nothing

Joan took Kevin home the next day, along with some antibiotics. Joan had also been able to set up an appointment with a depression specialist for Kevin. He was prescribed some medication. Joan was so relieved. She honestly didn't think she could take living with him for much longer.

Joan and Kevin arrived home to find an envelope pinned to their door. It was the one Joan had been dreading.

Dear Miss Joan Hampton

You have failed to pay the last 4 weeks rent. Due to housing demands in New York, we cannot afford to keep tenants in Sunshine Apartment who do not pay their bills. It has come to our attention that this is your forth notice, so in order to be fair to prospective buyers, we are giving you five days notice to move out, and two months to repay the unpaid rent. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact the reception on 555-456-123.

Thank You,

Danny Smith

(Manager of Sunshine Apartments, New York)

Joan read the letter over and over again. She didn't understand why this was happening to her. There was almost no possible way for her to stay in New York, where housing cost way too much for a single woman looking after her twenty-seven-year-old brother.

She took out her keys and tried to open the door, but the landlord had changed the locks. Joan leant against the wall, and slowly slid down as tears tumbled from her frightened eyes. Kevin lifted her up on to his lap, and gave her a hug. He hadn't even seen the letter, but he knew what it said.

He felt as though it was his fault. He had come and been selfish enough to occupy Joan's house, survive on her income and place the burden of himself on her. He too, was soon weeping. "I'm so sorry…I'm sorry," he cried to Joan.

After sitting in shock in hallway of Sunshine Apartments for almost half an hour, Joan picked up her mobile, and called the only person she knew could help; Luke.

When she told him about the eviction notice, Luke asked her and Kevin around to discuss their situation. Joan quickly drove to her little brothers home.

Luke greeted them at the door and invited them inside. It was in a standard neighbourhood, and was a standard two-storey house. Kevin and Joan entered the house carefully.

Looking around they could see that it was missing a lot of things. For instance, Joan noted that there was no lounge to be seen, and his TV was a tiny black and white one. Luke led his siblings to the small aging table in the daggy kitchen.

They sat around the table snacking on stale biscuits Luke had gotten from the cupboard. He looked at Kevin and Joan in the eye, and said very seriously, "We can't live this way,"

Joan and Kevin knew this was true. Joan didn't make enough money to live in New York, and Kevin was restricted to what he could do, due to his wheelchair. Even though this was the case in most places, in smaller towns at least he could go places without people bustling past him. That was why this was the first time (excluding the hospital) that he had been outside the apartment. Inside he could keep to himself, reading his books.

Joan nodded to her brother. Luke then continued, "I am about to be evicted myself. So I can't offer you my home to stay in while you get back on your feet, but I think our problems are more than that. We need a new start I think. I can work my way out of debt, Kevin can rebuild his life, and Joan, and you can just start again. It's what we need."

Kevin muttered "Arcadia."

Joan could feel herself nodding, but she didn't really want to. She didn't want to revisit her past, and she didn't want to see her parents, after lying to them…

Luke was equally as apprehensive about this thought, but it seemed to be the only option for the siblings. He would have to simply forget Grace and move on…

Kevin, however, wasn't exactly apprehensive, more regretful about his statement. After his operation, he had had a huge fight with his parents, and he vowed never to talk to them again. And he had been going well up until this point. But he supposed it was time for forgive and forget. As the oldest child, it was his job to lead the others by example. It was time to take the first step, well…roll, and put the lies, the fighting and betrayal behind them.

What Kevin didn't realize, was that he was just laying these things out for them, ready to trip over…

Look foward to reading your reviews. Love Em!
