"Your the number one songwriter in the world and that's what you wrote?" Anthony said, raising his eyebrows

"How much money is in that bag?" Chris asked

"Around two hundred thousand dollars" I cringed

"And you just lost it?" Chris gasped

"Oh yeah I threw the bag away - obviously I didn't mean to lose it!"

"Well maybe it's in the room downstairs, that's where all the boxes of stuff we haven't unpacked yet is" Sebastian said

"Yes!" I shouted, running down stairs and into the spare room where all the boxes where, the three men were quickly behind me

"The money has to be here, because I definitely remember having the bag when we lived in the penthouse" I said, ripping open the first box, the others doing the same

"Why do you have a box of Jesus candles with Kim's face on them?" Anthony said, looking in the first box

"I have insomnia, late night Amazon shopping" Anthony stared at me for a moment before shaking his head and continuing the search

We looked in silence for another five minutes

"What's this?" Sebastian said taking out a yellow envelope

"No that is - " I started as Sebastian pulled an old tape recording with paper stuck to the front of it out from the envelope,

"If I ever go missing or am found dead it was my husband" he read "what the hell is this?"

"Calm down, I made this after we had our first big fight, of course I knew you were never going to kill me. I was just going to run away and frame you" I said casually before continuing looking in the boxes, leaving Sebastian, Anthony and Chris all staring at me in confusion

I looked for another twenty minutes and then I headed back up to my closet to continue find the bag.

"So" Chris said casually, coming into closet behind me "how are Daniel, Calvin and Jason getting on?"

"Good, I think. We're both busy at the moment so we haven't really spoken in a while"

"How long is a while?"

"Three or four weeks" I shrugged

"Yeah that's kids" he smirked "you went from living with them to only talking to them once a month"

"True, and they don't even talk that much either cause they don't go to the same schools, Daniels in Harvard and he's going to be a lawyer, Calvin's in Yale and he's going to be a graphic designer whatever that means and Jason's in North Carolina University which is like the best basketball college in America, he's in his second year and he's already being offered NBA contracts. I tried to talk to him, but the game he plays is a lot more complex than the one I played in High School."

"Yeah but I know one thing for certain" he smiled

"What?"

"No matter what happens, they'll always come back to you, you were their for them when no one was, you'll always have a special place in their hearts"

"If it hasn't been taken up by their girlfriends, did you know that Daniels had a girlfriend for six months? Like who does this girl think she
is - " I started ranting but Chris raised his eyebrows and smiled, making me realise that I had gone into protective mode

"You'll never want to let them go" he laughed

"Thank you Robin" I said.

"Stop calling me that!"
