"But it's Rehan. I'm sure Ace and Kai have normal rooms but Rehan..."

"We can't." I laughed. "What if we walk in there and we find a half-hatched dragon egg."

"Then we'll help it hatch and name it."

I laughed. "But..but..What if we find a nuclear weapon that could destroy the world?"

"We use it to get world domination, duh."

I shook my head. "What if...we find an underground tunnel that leads straight to the bank."

"Then let's go and check." She grabbed my hand and pulled me until I got up and followed her.

We went upstairs and stood in front of Rehan's room.

"This is a breach of privacy." I told Remi but her eyes were glinting like stars. She was not backing down.And as you know once Remi had something on her mind...

"If you feel that bad about it, we'll just take a peek."

I bit my lower lip as she opened the door and peeked through the door.

Just as I saw a shining red and yellow light coming from his room, Remi got her head out and slammed the door shut.

"What? What did you see?" I asked.

She turned towards me with her face in pure shock.

"Remi what did you see?" I grabbed her shoulders and shook her. "Was it a dragon egg? A time machine? Is my brother an alien?"

She stood still in shock. I took a deep breath and reached for the doorknob ready to open the door when I heard Ace yelling from downstairs.

"What the fuck?"

I grabbed Remi and we ran downstairs. He was looking at the empty bottle of vodka.

"Did you drink?"

"No." I shook my head.

He glanced at Remi behind me who was leaning on the stair rail waving at him.

"Do you know what would happen if mom and dad find out?" He asked.

"Um I'm grounded?" I shrugged.

"No. They will think I influenced you and will kill me."

"Oh so this is about you. Always about you. Why is it that you can do all you want and I can't do anything I want? Huh?" I walked over to him poking his chest. "You can drink and party and do everything you want while I always have to be the perfect daughter and watch over you three."

He caught my hand and gave me a sad look. "Francy is that how you feel? That you have to be perfect?"

I pulled my hand out. "Isn't that what you all expect of me?"

Ace sighed. "It's not like that.. If you knew why.. " He rubbed his shoulders. "This is hardly the conversation to have when you're drunk."

"I'm not."

"I'm sleepy." Remi said before dropping on the ground.

"Oh shit." Ace ran next to her picking her up. "Geez after half a bottle, it's a miracle you're handling it that well."

"Really?" I said and jumped next to him happily. "Brother, I love you. Don't be mad."

"Oh god." Ace sighed, shaking his head. "Okay, help me get Remi in your room."

We walked in there but it still smelled like paint.

"It's gonna take another day until anyone can sleep in here. We should lay her in the guest room."
