As I got into my car ready to get back to London, I took my phone and sent a message to Ben.

To: Benjamin💘
Don't wait for me, go to sleep, I'll be at home late. Don't you worry, everything's okay, I love you❤️

I put on Justin Bieber's songs and relaxed driving to London. It was 6pm when I left their house what means I will in London at about half 8 but I need to stay by one place before.

Little Venice, my secret place since I got in London for the first time. I sat on one bench looking at water as soft lights were lighting my face and things around me. My phone vibrated in my pocket, but I just ignored it trying to sort in my head what happened an hour and half ago. No matter how they will react, but they can't stop me from seeing my sister. After eight years we deserved to finally see each other, and I won't give up on her as they did on me.

My birthday wish was to meet my sister and tell her that we are sisters, first thing I did right but second one will need to wait for just a bit longer. No one doesn't know for this, not Sophia, not Ben. Ben is the only person who knows for this part of my life and family, Sophia still don't know but I think that I will tell her if she shows interest as she did a little after we started to live together.

I know Ben will be mad when I tell him where I was and what I did but I wanted to go there alone, to face them alone not for them to see me as some conceited person because of what my boyfriend is.

After about two hours of me sitting and thinking about things on bench at Little Venice I got up and decided to go home. It was 10pm and I can guess Ben is not sleeping yet what means I will have long conversation with him when I get home.

"Good evening miss late-secretly-outs" he said in serious deep voice as I walked into living room

"Ben I-"

"You can explain, yes, of course you can, what's today's excuse?" he asked sounding really frustrated

"I was in Bedfordshire" I said not wanting to keep it from him anymore what caused him to look at me confused

"What?" he asked

"I was in Bedfordshire, I met Daisy, she is so nice, cute and talented girl" I said remembering her little giggle from earlier what just put a smile on my face

"After I got back to London, I went to Little Venice to sort everything in my head before coming home" I said

"Daisy?" he asked

"My sister Ben" I said

"Ela I-"

"I know Ben, I should have told you, but I wanted to do it alone, to face them alone without them thinking I am the person I was in front of her today just because of you" I said

"You should have just told me" he said

"But you will want to go with me" I said

"no" he said, and I raised my eyebrow "okay yes" he said

"I was okay, Ben" I said cupping his face as he was standing in front of me in hallway "I got her, don't worry" I said and gently kissed him

"But next time tell me, okay?" he said

"okay" I said stroking his cheek

"you're such a swindler" he said smiling

"a swindler? Why?" I asked confused

"Because you know I can't stay mad at you if you do such a cute thing" he said

"wrong" I said "you can't stay mad at me because you love me" I added smiling at him

"I hate you, you know" he said wrapped his arms around me lifting me up and soon enough I was on couch lying on my back as he was hovering me

"You love me" I said laughing

"So much" he said and started leaving kisses all over my face

"Okay, okay, Ben" I mumbled laughing "I love you too" I said, and he gently kissed me

"Where is Oscar?" I asked as he was looking at me leaning on his elbows

"Sleeping under stairs probably" he said and shrugged

"And are we going to sleep?" I asked raising my eyebrow

"I just thought of having a bit fun with you" he said smiling "I'm kidding you dummy" he said and stood up giving me his hand, so I stood up

"I'm just going to take a quick shower, okay?" I said as we entered bedroom

"okay" he said and kissed me on flash as I went to bathroom "Els" I looked through half opened door

He threw me his jersey and I caught it just smiling at him. As I was taking shower, I tied my hair up. After I finished with shower, I put my hair back down looking at it in mirror. It grew up, a lot, I didn't cut it for a year, but it was too long, and I think I will cut it soon.

Looking at myself in Ben's jersey, my blonde hair and smile that was on my face since today was unexplainable.

"Hey, everything's okay in there?" I heard knocking on bathroom's door

"Um, yeah, I'm coming, just give me a minute" I said and brushed my teeth

"Turn around" he said showing me with hand what to do

"okay" I mumbled confused and turned around, so he was facing my back

"Pull your hair up" he said, and I did so

"Just what I want to see" he said quietly and soon enough I felt his arms on my waist turning me around to face him

"Are you ready?" he asked looking at me
