LANI P.O.V.
I can't believe my brother, im always the first to be accused of everything. I
decided to go back to the restaurant. I got to the stairs to the top room. I heard
laughter. Brax could really get over things as if nothing happened. I got three quarters of the way, i could see brax with a girl. she had long, straight black hair. She looked familiar like i had seen her somewhere before. I quickly got out of there before they went any further. I decided to walk along the beach. It
was starting to get dark. I didn't want to go home I don't think i could face
anyone. I saw a familiar face coming running to me. It was a face i was glad to
see.
"Lani! what are you doing here?" he asked
"Brax wanted me to live with him"
"Home shit"
"you could say that again"
"Home shit"He repeated
I laughed. It was Ben. He was apart of the river boys. He was my age and
hated school just as much as me. We were both the youngest kids in the river boys
gang. the second young was Cobey, he was 17 being two years older than us.
"hey there's a party on tonight you wanna come"
"ahh I better not"
"Come on you've gone all soft on us lan"
"I'll take a rain check on it"
"OK have fun with the rainbows and puppies" He laughed walking off
i thought for a second. You only live once.
"Ban", I said turning around, "you know what. Fuck it, im coming"
"What about Brax"
"Stuff Brax, Stuff Heath, Stuff Casey" I said walking over to him.
"That's the Lani i know" he said putting his arm around me walking back to the gang. I was the youngest and shortest in the group along with being the only girl. My brothers didn't want me to be in the gang but everyone else was fine with it.
Heaths P.O.V.
I was at home waiting for Lani to get home, I was starting to get worried. I heard the door open.
"Lani?" I said turning around to look
"Nah it's just us" Replied Brax with Casey behind him
"Tried calling her, went to message bank"
"She'll come home, She'll be fine" Said Casey
"How do you know that case" Said Brax "She's never been here before she doesn't know anyone"
"Shes probably with Corey and his mates" I said "or on a bus back to mangrove"
"you want pizza" Said Casey
"Don't you care" Scoffed Brax
"well you've already solved where she could be"
"Stomach over mid" said Brax
Casey couldn't care less about Lani. But i didn't get why brax cared about her all the sudden. Maybe he knew something that we didn't, but what was there to not know when i was 12 when she was born and Brax was 15.
Lani P.O.V.
"So this party, you guys invited or gate crashing" I asked Ben
"Bit of both, we didn't get invited but their mates of a mate"
"right" i replied "Alcohol?"
"yeah" he laughed," you're not gonna drink are you"
"Maybe a little" I giggled" Hey I can tolerate it, ive done it before"
"Youre full of surprises"
we got to the party. It was Ben's Mates mate Daniels house.
"hey Dani" Ben said getting up and hugging him as you do.
"Who`s this" he asked looking at me
"Lani" I said
"You look familiar
"Really" I replied "Small world"
"Yeah said dan
