"so jack's sister, how long you staying?" mason asks me

"first don't call me that, i'd rather no one know i'm his sister and second the whole summer. i want to get away from life at home." i say

"why's that?" he asks

"it's so restricted, where here i can do whatever." i say

"nah there's a lotta rules here sorry to break it to you, especially the coaches. they are strict as hell." mason tells me

"they're probably nothing compared to my mum." i say

"i might be completely wrong but the way you're talking about it is giving off vibes you don't like it very much." mason says

"i love my parents but it's like they have everything planned for me, it's like they have a piece of paper and they wrote down the exact day that i'm gonna go shopping, the day i'm going to get married, the day i'm going to get my own house." i say, "why am i telling you this, i barely know you."

"i'm pretty good at listening to people, you can talk to me whenever. and don't worry i won't tell jack." he says

"thanks i appreciate it." i say

"so do you two not get along well?" he asks me

"where did you get that from?" i ask

"you did kinda say you don't want anyone to know you're related." mason explains

"he's very overprotective." i say

"i bet, he's always quite serious around here." mason says

"and it just annoys me how different he acts around our parents." i say

"carry on." mason says

"he never trusts me, he always thinks he's better and always goes on about the smallest things. like if i went in his room and opened the window he would scream at me." i say

i ly on my bed on my back looking up at the ceiling and carry on.

"but then there's peter, my boyfriend who i'm set to marry in a couple years. he's probably the nicest person you'll ever meet, but it's just to nice. he checks up on me every 10 minutes, he always makes sure i have a drink and that i'm never hungry. but then he treats me like a baby, if i don'r rely to him using 'proper words' he would say, he would make me repeat every single time until he was happy. he would use soppy words like 'bubs, hunnybun, sugarplum' etc. mum and dad loved him. straight a student and never let me out by myself so basically i wouldn't die as long as i was with him." i say

i hear no reply so i turn over to look at mason and see there's another boy

"how long have you been here..." i ask him

"nah don't worry, i'm declan by the way." he says

"hi i'm y/n." i say

"nice to meet you." declan says

"y/n decs my best mate, he won't tell no one." mason reassures me

"promise?" i ask

"yeah i promise." he replies, "so you got anything else to say about your smarty pants boyfriend?" dec says sitting down on mason's bed.

"no not really but i could call him, he did say he wants me to." i tell them

"yes and put him on speaker." mason says

i grab my phone out of my pocket and dial his number, i put him on speaker as he answers.

"hi peter." i say down the phone

"hello my lovely, how are things?" peter asks

the boys giggle as i put a finger on my mouth signalling to be quiet.

"yeah it's really good here." i say

"that's good, as long as my hun is happy." peter says

"i am." i say

"well sugar i've got to go now, my chess tournament is in the next half an hour. talk to you later, miss you loads." he says before making fake kiss noises

i hang up the phone and put it beside my on the bed face down.

"see what i mean?" i say to them both

"yeah..." mason says

"who the hell plays chess tournaments." declan says

"for my birthday one of his present to em was for me to go watch him play." i say

"sucks." mason says

"should we go see the rest of the lads?" declan suggests

"yeah but stay clear of jack, earlier he saw me talking to phil and took him away." i tell them

"will do." mason says laughing

we all get off the beds and walk out the room, i follow the boys through many halls trying to figure out how i'm going to get around by myself.

"hendoooo." mason shouts as we enter the kitchen

jordan was making himself a cup of tea as we entered.

"hey mate." he says as him and mason do a little handshake.

"you must be jack's sister, i'm jordan." he says shaking my hand

"hi i'm y/n." i say

"she doesn't like to be called jack's sister." mason adds

"sorry." jordan says

"no it's not a big deal." i say

"why aren't you boys training?" one of the coaches asks walking in

"are we meant to be?" declan asks him

"yes now out." the coach says

as i walk out the door he stops me, "hi y/n i'm lee the main coach here." he says

"hi nice to meet you." i say as i watch the boys walk off

"do you want to come watch?" lee asks me

"yeah thats sounds good." i say

"follow me." he says 

lee shows me to the training ground where i see all the boys doing drills with a different coach.

"that's sam." lee tells me, "you can sit over there." he says pointing at the bench

"okay thank you." i say walking off as he heads towards the boys.

jack looks at me but pretends he didn't and just walks away, i didn't know things were that bad. i then notice phil looking at me, i mouth 'what's up with him?' he comes back with 'tell you later'. i watch as mase and dec get told off multiple times for not doing the right thing. 

"how's it going so far y/n?" i hear someone say from behind me

i turn my head and see gareth walking out the doors.

"really good thank you." i reply

"good good, so normally the boys have training sessions like these, gym sessions, stretching sessions and cool down sessions. i came to tell you that you can attend all except the training but you can help with that one if you wish to do so." gareth says

"yeah of course." i say

"come over now, we need to split the boys up into groups and you can lead one." he says as i follow him onto the pitch
