"I think you should buy it" i say putting a multicoloured ugly hat on Finns head.
He looks at me like I'm crazy, "Are you kidding, I look ridiculous"
"I love it" I say
"Really?" He asks confused
"Yeah, its very urban, very new. Ahead of its time" i say
"Well if it's ahead of its time, it shouldn't have been created" he says and I laugh and he puts it back on the rack.
"I think you pull it off" I tell him putting my hands on my hips
"I think your lying" he says putting his hands on his hips mimicking me
"Fine, but Flynn you pulled it off" I say
"I know Rapunzel, I know" he says flicking his imaginary hair off his shoulder and I laugh.
"Crazy, absolutely crazy" I say
"Runs in the family" he says with a shrug
"Tell me about it" i say and he smiles ya me
"So hows your audition prep going?" He asks me
"Well I've had one go at the song, I've not even tried learning the monologue yet but.... I don't know, I want to audition for the lead, I do it's just that I don't know" i trail off
"Your worried you'll get sick again" he says and i nod
"Look darling, you can't live in fear of what might and what might not happen, if you do get sick which any of us could, you don't want regrets. So Rapunzel, go for it" he says and i nod
"When did you become so wise?" I ask him suddenly and he laughs
"I've always been wise, you've been too stupid to notice" he says walking past me and i smack him
"That was uncalled for" I say with a smile
"That abuse was uncalled for but here we both are" he says smiling back at me.

"What's with all the cars outside?" I ask as I turn off the car outside of the beach house
"Please tell my Ace hasn't invited a bunch of college girls" Finn grumbles
"I'm guessing it's not the first time that's happened" I ask
"Nope, I had to disinfect my room... five times" he says and I can't help but laugh.
"Aww, my baby" I say and he glares at me
"I'm not a baby" he says
I scoff, "yes you are, you act like your hard but but when all of that 'scary' shit goes away your a marshmallow"
"I am not!" He says outraged
"Oh look at that a temper tantrum, maybe your more of a toddler" I say and he gasps
I smirk and he tries to come up with a reply.
"Holly! Its Nando's for tea!" Jordan shouts
"Wait what?" I ask
"Did he just say Nando's?" Finn says urgently
"Uh... yes?" I ask
"It's been years!" He says before running into the house
I follow after him walking before he storms out angrily a few seconds later.
"What's wrong?" I ask him
"They don't have Nandos" he grumbles
"Okay darling, deep breath... where can we get Nandos?" I ask him
"England" he mumbles
"England!" I say loudly
"Don't remind me, it's too painful" he says and i shake my head at him.
He's so dramatic.
I walk into the house to see, three section. The section Max was in when he was in the army.
"Holly!" They all cheer as they see me
"Oh my god!" I shout
"What! Huh!" I say and they laugh
They all rush over to hug me.
"We're so glad your okay!"
"Thanks!" I say smiling
I look at all their families faces and notice that one is missing.
No no no no.
Please not him.
I frown, "Where's Nandos?"
"Holly!" A voice shouts from the top of the stairs
"Nandos!" I shout looking at him
We both scream as we run towards each other.
We do our handshake before laughing and we hug each other.
"What are you doing here?" I ask him
"We talked to Jordan on the beach and then Matty came back and said that he saw you" Nandos tells me.
"Well I'm glad your here and that your all okay" i tell him
"Not as half as glad as I am" he says and i smile.
"I'm guessing you've met everyone?" I ask
"Yeah everyone's so nice" he says
"Yeah and fit" Freya adds on
Don't date a solider, don't put yourself through what I went through.
We're not taking about that though.
At least not today.
"Don't date a soldier" I tell her
"Why?" She asks
I sigh, "just because"
"She's right, it your not sure that the person isn't the one, it's not fair to lead them on and it's not fair on them if something happened to them" Nandos adds
"Exactly Nandos, your right" i say
Nando's.
I know what your thinking, weirded name .
Nando's real name is Kieran, he's half British half American and he loves Nandos.
Max told me when they were on the bus to the base for the first time and throughout the entire tour Kieran wouldn't stop talking about Nandos.
Nando's is an amazing food restaurant in England. World class according to the whitey boys, you should go.
And that's how he got his nickname.
"Who's the lad?" He asks me gesturing to Finn talking to Ryder
"My boyfriend" I say and he raises his eyebrows
"He's not if he doesn't pass the check" he says and walks off to three section and mutters some words to them before they all look at Finn.
I rush over to Finn and he looks at me.
"I don't have long but they will test you" i tell him
"What?" He says confused
"Look, they want to see if you pass a test or something" i say with a shrug and Finn laughs.
"Okay" he says with a shrug.
Okay?
That's all I get? Okay?
This isn't going to end well.
