Walking the short distance home I caught sight of Lana at my bedroom window. My gran wasn't strict, she wasn't controlling she was actually a cool gran but when it came down to it she was hard faced when she needed to be.

This was one of those situations. I was going to get my ass chewed for no reason. I knew Lana wasn't going to get off lightly it just meant the two of us were getting an earful. Walking up the path I took a deep breath before heading inside.

"In here Leah". The good thing was George was here. Maybe she wouldn't be to hard. Kicking off my shoes I ignored the vibrations coming from my pocket. Whoever that was could wait.

Taking a seat on the arm chair I waited for what was to come. Lana was getting her ass kicked for this one. She knew better and she knew what my gran was like.

"You come in here as well Lana. I want to speak to you both". She walked in her head bowed her gaze fixed on the floor. Glancing at her she gave me a small smile.

"You're not kids anymore". My gran sighed. "But you both know my rules. They haven't changed just because we moved house". Glancing at George she took the hand he was offering.

Why did I have a feeling this conversation wasn't about Lana and her having a boy here.

"What's you plans Lana? Are you staying with us permanently, are you just visiting?".

"Staying permanently". She whispered.

"Do you plan on finishing school?". She asked.

"I do Miss Wilson I'm just waiting to hear back. I will pay my way and I won't be any hassle. I am sorry about today".

"Nonsense you're family honey and well what happened today won't happen again will it?". She asked just as my phone began to vibrate again.

"It won't I promise and thank you for letting me stay". She smiled.

"My girls under one roof again". She laughed. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. She was so cool about it all. "Leah did you invite Jake over for dinner?". She asked.

"I haven't yet but I will". Something was going on with her and I couldn't quite put my finger on it. I would find out sooner or later though.

...

"I swear I thought she was going to give us an earful". Lana laughed as she fell onto my bed.

"Give you an earful, I wasn't the one sucking face in the living room". Checking my phone I grinned when I saw the message.

'Big bad wolf isn't that scary is he?'

"I didn't have Pete in my bed". Snapping my head up I glared at her grinning face. My gran didn't need to know that Jake had spent a few nights here. "Stop glaring your face will stay like that". She sighed.

"So Pete?". I asked replying to Jakes message.

'More cuddly than scary;)'

I knew he'd hate that reply.

"He's hot". She winked. "And we get on really well. First date I've been on where I haven't phoned you for backup".
