Charlotte's POV.

This doesn't make sense. It was here when I started packing. Now it's not.

I ran downstairs to find my dad only to see my almost family all laughing. Kelly notices me first and smiles.

"Dad have you seen my phone? It was on my bed when I went to the bathroom, now it's not." I let out a frustrated groan.

"Well phones don't just get up and walk away." I roll my eyes at his sarcastic tone

"Maybe you packed it in one of your boxes?" Kelly suggests. I shake my head.

"I couldn't have. It was on my pillow. I haven't even packed my pillows yet." I groan again and ran back upstairs.

"By the way, Maya texted. I didn't know you knew her." I turned around and Mason stood there with my phone in his hand. I snatched my phone out of his hand and walked back to my bed.

"Wanna explain why you had my phone?"

"I got curious. I finally know why I never recognized you in school." Oh no.

"And why is that?" I look at him and he smiles.

He pulls his phone out of his pocket and as I watch him scroll, my nervousness grew. He smiled one more time before showing me a picture on his phone.

Oh God. "How in the h--"

"Watch your language." A smirk graced his face as he watched me fume. "I think I like this a lot better." He waved his phone around in my face and walked out of my room.

How dare he. How dare he go through my phone and steal my picture! We're only moving in and I can already tell living with him is going to be infuriating.

I grabbed my phone and checked the message from Maya.

' I'm Coming Over To Help Pack xoxo'

I quickly typed up a message but by the time I went to send it to her, there was a knock on the door.

I scrambled to get downstairs before anyone else could answer it. Unfortunately, luck was never in my favor because Mason freaking answered it.

"Maya?"

"No, I'm her evil twin sister May." She rolled her eyes and pushed pass him into the house. "Where's Charls." She looked at my dad but Mason answered.

"She's upstairs packing. Why are you here?"

"Does It Matter?" She rolled her eyes again. "Hi Mr. Fray."

"Maya, I told you, just call me dad."

Maya laughed. I finished coming down the stairs to greet Maya.

She had her red hair pinned up in a messy bun and was wearing her favorite lazy day sweats. And also.. "Is that my shirt?"

She smiled and looked down at her-my shirt. "Oh this old thing?" I shook my head at her. I went back upstairs so I could finish packing and Maya trailed behind me.

"I can't believe that he's going to be your stepbrother. You've liked him since like 2nd grade, and now your dad is marrying his mom." She plopped down on my bed while I grabbed more hangers out of my closet.

"I Know. don't remind me." I threw the clothes in my hand on top of her.

She sat up and gave me a nasty look. "Does your mom know... About the engagement?"

I shook my head. "I don't think he's going to tell her." Dad hadn't talked to mom since the divorce was even being thought of. He thought that if he said something to her, his heart would break all over again.

Mom has tried to talk to me but I just ignore her calls. I don't want to talk to her. She has a son. He's two now. I've seen pictures of him on Facebook.

I'm envious of him. She loves him, she never loved me. She shows him attention she would never show me. She throws him parties when she couldn't even show up to mine.

"Charls, she may have not shown it, but she loved you." She stood from the bed and hugged me.

I gently pushed her off and went back to packing. She came beside me and started folding the clothes on the bed. We stayed quiet while folding clothes and placing them into the boxes.

After about 10 minutes Maya put down the shirt she was holding and wrapped her arms around me. I didn't react but I soon gave in by hugging her back tightly.

"I'm sorry." I nodded my head into her shoulder.

Dad came and knocked on the door and told us it was time to load up the truck. Maya grabbed one box and I grabbed the one beside it and we went downstairs to the truck.

I loaded my boxes on the truck. Maya hugged me, "Maya? I'm just moving into a different house, I'm still going to be going to the same school as you." she smiled.

"I know, but this was our childhood home. We grew up here. The birthday parties, our annual games of hide and go seek on Halloween, the sleepovers, we did everything here." She looked back at the house and smiled.

"Yeah I remember. But we can do those things at this new house. It'll be great I promise." I would miss this house. I had my first birthday, my first tears, my first kiss, my first words, steps, everything.

"Your right." she padded to her car and started it. "And on th bright side, you get to live with your elementary crush" She smiled then drove off.

I love her, but sometimes she--"Elementary huh?" Mason appeared beside me and I jumped.

"I-I don't know what your talking about." He smiled then went and got into the car next to his--my new mom.

My dad came and stood beside me and smiled. "I still remember when you took your first steps, you came wobbling through the hall yelling daddy. This house holds a lot of memories." I pat him on his shoulder.

"Yeah, well maybe another family can make new memories, or maybe a new couple can make a new family, who knows." I laughed and started towards the moving truck. Dad lingered by the house before locking it with the keys and placing a for sale sign in the yard.

He got in the truck beside me and smiled. I turned on the radio and Steven by Jake miller was on. I turned it up and dad made a face. "I don't like this song."

"Why not?"

"It makes me wanna cry." I laughed and turned it up a little more.

I'm glad I decided to ride with him. If i had chose to ride with Kelly like she had offered, it would have been a disaster.

We arrived at our 'new house' and even seeing it for the second time, it still amazed me. We got out of the car and met Kelly at the door. "Mason will show you to your room."

I grabbed my bags and followed Mason into the house. Turns out my room was right next to his.

I walked into my new room only to be slammed against my door. Two hands on each side of my head and Mason's body pressed against mine. "Um Hello."

"Sooo, you've liked me since elementary?" His voice was deep and raspy. I can't lie, this is a turn on.

"Don't be so cocky. It was a petty crush, and it doesnt matter, our parents are getting married and that would disgusting."

"Were not related by blood, which means, us having s--" Oh My Goosshhh

"Don't even finish that sentence." He pushed closer to me. My breath hitched in my throat.

"Why, are you a v--" I covered his mouth with my hand.

"Stop it Mason." He laughed.

"You are a virgin."

"So what if I am! I'm proud of it."

"Okay." He smiled and stepped away from me.

"Get out." I pointed to the door.

"Yes ma'am." He left my room but nor before I winked and blew a kiss at me.

This is going to be exhausting.
