******ALEXIS' P.O.V.******

"How could you do this to me! How could you not mention to me that I was going to be have evil sisters who already hate me!" I said upset at her. After all she's the only one I can blame for ruining my life!

"They don't hate you." She said and I gave her my are 'you kidding me look'.

" Really? You're joking right. They hate me! If that was them liking me... I'd love to see how they treat the people they actually hate!" I said as I walked away from my mother. I needed to take a walk this was too much to handle.

Why didn't she tell me this was happening? If it were dad, he would have told me! God, I never should have left!

"Does dad even know you're going to be having step kids or does he believe it's just a husband like I did?" I said turning my back to my mom seeing that what I said hurt her. I automatically felt really bad, but I couldn't help it. Her face said it all. That expression, like she was trying to find something to say to make me less mad. But even she could tell there was nothing she would be able to say to fix this.

"Unbelievable!" I said shaking my head and she walked closer to me.

"I was going to tell you." She said trying to grab hold of my arm but I hit her hand away.

"When?! When I arrived and looked like a complete fool for not knowing they existed?! Oh, wait a second, that already happened! God, dad was right! You have changed!" I said as I shook my head and my mother's eye's started to tear up. "Did you ever think about how these girls would treat me? Or did your new life completely override your old one so much you forgot I existed?" I said sadly as a tear fell down my face. I hated crying. It always thought it made me look weak and I hated being weak. It also made it look like I was seeking attention, or that I wanted a pity party, and better yet like I wanted to get my own way. But it never looked like what it really was.

Hurt! I was hurt. No worse than hurt! I was heartbroken.....

"I'm sorry Alexis, I thought things would go well. I thought you would like them. You always used to talk about what it would be like to have a sister." She said walking behind me as I made my way down the busy streets of London, paying no attention to the people around us, or what we might look like to them.

"Yeah, back when I was five! I wanted one that would actually notice I'm alive instead of just ignoring me." I said after turning to look at her and she took a deep breath.

Maybe this was a bad idea... " my mom said as she took a set on a nearby bench.

"Me coming to London or this engagement?" I said as she sat down.

"Both... no ... I don't know." She said as her head fell into her hands. When she looked up her eyes were full of tears. "I do love him, I'm just not sure I'm going to be a good mother to these girl's and if you don't like them then..." She started to say before I cut her off.

"Don't! It doesn't matter if I like them or not, maybe they will change their mind and they will like me." I tried to sound convincing and my mother smiled at me. Even though I was still mad at her for this. I was still just like every kid out there, I just couldn't bear to see my mother cry. Like hell, they would ever treat me like a sister! I'll always be the Cinderella girl to them. But if my mother was happy I had to at least try. "If you truly love him, then you can make it work. I'm sure they would love to have you as a mom." I said kind of feeling a bit sad knowing that now I'm never going to get to have a mother all to myself.

"You do?" She asked me and I gave her a nod before she once again suffocated me in a hug.

I missed her hugs. I had forgotten how it felt for her to hug me...

After that, we made our way to this cute little macaron shop and had tea, sandwiches, and macaroons. My mom loved the coffee ones whereas I was stuck picking between the cookies and cream and the pistachio. One word and it's ...

YUM!

My mom had always been like that sister I never had. The one that would spend nights on end watching romance movie like The Notebook, The Best of Me, and you can't forget one of our all-time favorites A Walk To Remember. We would cry over a tub of cookies and cream ice cream as well as go through boxes of tissues. I could never get dad to watch one of those movies. He was always telling me how 'stereotypical' they were. How they all had the same ending and he could see it coming from miles away.But the real reason I think he never watched them, is because he didn't want mom and I seeing him cry like a little girl!

After stuffing my face full of food most unladylike, we sat and talked about all the things my mom had already gotten me for school. After we were done, mom paid with the money Bryan gave us and we made our way back.

As we started walking back to the house, I filled my mom in on all the things that happened over the summer. Like my friend Kate getting a tattoo without her mom finding out. I am still waiting for her mom to kill Kate when she first sees it.

"So your father... is he..." My mom said uncomfortably.

"He's still single," I said and she laughed.

"I would have thought he would have found a girl by now! You know with all his lady charms." My mom said and I burst out laughing.

"Says the girl who had to ask him out on a date, after hinting and hinting that you were thirsty and wanted to go get a drink, hoping he would take the hint and ask you to go get coffee," I said and she shook her head laughing.

"Ok so maybe he needed a little bit of a push, but he has gotten the hang of it by now." My mom said as we made our way down a road with a big mansion on it.

I kept thinking in my head about all the memories they shared, up until I actually stopped spacing out and actually looked around.

"HOLY COW'S GO MOOO! THESE HOUSES ARE BIGGER THAN MY SCHOOL!" I said freaking out as I looked from house to house as my mom stood there and laughed at me.

Isn't she just the sweetest?

"Mom what are we doing here? I think you took a wrong turn!" I said and before I knew it Bryan came walking out of the front door to the nicest mansion I'd ever laid my eyes on!

*GALP*

Ok, I take it that the evil stepsisters don't need to marry the prince, they already live in a bloody CASTLE! I said in my head as I looked at the huge mansion. Yeah.... there is no way someone can call this a house... It's massive!!!!

"Ah, there you girls are!" Bryan said and he ran over to my mom and me to greet us.

"Nice place you got here. What did you do, win the lottery or something?!" I said sarcastically, but also being completely serious. But Bryan just chuckled at me.

Ok... I'll take that as a no! I said in my head.

"Not exactly. I work for a music label". He said as he wrapped his arm around my mom's waist.

"Wow must be fun!" I said and my mom smiled.

"Are you kidding? It's amazing! He meets all the up and coming celebrities !" Amber said as she walked out of the front door and came over to where we all were, joined by Tiffany.

"Yeah, and he has even met Jordan Blake and Mike Payton." She said all chipper.

"Sorry who?" I asked and both their eye's widened like they had seen a monster or something.

"Oh dear. You really aren't from around here!" Tiffany said with a sarcastic fake smile and sounded worried.

Err what an ass!

"Do you even know who Kyle Knight is?" They asked in unison and I looked at them confused.

"I'm sorry I don't! " I said and they burst out laughing

"Omg! Do you like, live under a rock or something?" Tiffany asked me with a fake smile.

"No. I just don't keep up with trends!" I said and the truth was I didn't. I liked what I liked and it was as simple as that!

"No kidding!" Tiffany said as she looked me up and down. I watched as Amber did the same and the two of them burst out in synchronized laughter.

Errrr! Breath Alexis. Just breath.

Of course, when Amber and Tiffany came out to talk to me, my mom and Bryan started having their own conversation away from us. So obviously I couldn't prove to my mom that we wouldn't get along and these girls hated me! A part of me wished she had seen the way they acted, and the other made me happy she didn't. She was happy with Bryan and I wasn't going to get in the way with that and try to split them up. I may not like the idea of this, but I'm not one to be selfish and wreck her relationship just to get her back. Plus I didn't need my mom or anyone to fight my fights with these devils! I could deal with them on my own and if not, I'll go back to my dad's. He said I could if I wanted to.

"Oh well, let's get you settled in and I'll show you your room." My mom said and Bryan smiled as they walked inside and I followed right behind them.

I suddenly thought of my cat. When my mom told me she was getting married, I thought the worst thing that could happen was he could be allergic to cats. Casper was my best friend. He was given to me by my parents a week before I left and when I mean 'parents'... I mean my dad picked him out and my mom...well let's just say she paid for half the bill! But luckily for Casper and I, Bryan was not allergic to anything! But he still didn't come with me.

When we stepped inside the place looked like the inside of some crazy magazine! The floors were white marble, there were long winding staircases, and beautiful chandeliers hanging from almost every inch of the place!

Yep, I could get used to this!

My thoughts were soon interrupted by the sound of a nearby phone and just like that Bryan went to go answer it. Tiffany and Amber then made their way down the hall while my mother guided me upstairs. We passed by so many rooms I started to believe the place was a big hotel!
I had pictured my room to be some sort of guest room but when we got to this big two-door room my mom made me close my eye's.

What's with the mystery? I didn't fight it. I just did as she said and closed my eyes as I heard her open the door then pull me inside.

Then all at once, she told me to open my eye's and when I did I died.

I had a Chanel styled room! There was a Chanel makeup area. I had a Chanel walk-in CLOSET! Like honestly who has this big of a walk-in closet? It's bigger than my old room and the bathroom that was attached to it! Even my bed screamed Chanel! It was amazing!

"OMGGGGGG! " I said as I ran around looking all over the room. It was unbelievable. It truly was!

"You like it? " My mom asks and my eyes flew all the way open.

"Like? I LOVE ITTTT!" I said as I ran up and hugged her. "Thank you thank you thank you!" I said as she laughed.

I had always loved fashion and makeup. I designed a lot of clothes and made quite a bit of the ones I designed. So you could say I had a thing for Chanel and other designers.

"Knock knock can I come in?" Bryan said with half of his body hidden behind the door as he peeked his head in.

"Yeah sure, come on in," I said with a welcoming smile.

"I thought you might want a friend here, so I got my Butler to go get this for you. " Bryan said as he pulled out a cute bag from behind him.

Wait for what!? He wants me to be friends with a bag? Is this guy mentality stable????

"Umm wow, that's so sweet of you Mr. Hill ...." I started to say but then I heard a meow come from the bag and my eyes flew open all the way.

OMG!

My mom watched as I looked at her with a big smile and then back to Bryan before running to the bag he had in his hand and opened it.

As I unzipped the top zipper of the bag out popped Casper.

"OMG CASPER!" I said as I took him out of the bag and hugged him before I kissed the top of his head and put him on my new bed. Then I ran over and hugged Bryan, who by the way was totally not expecting me to do that. Neither was I or my mom.
