Julianna's POV 

"Happy birthday to you!! Happy birthday to you!!" Everybody sings out to me. 

"How does it feel to be twenty six girly!" Lilia exclaims. 

Pause. 

Let me tell you about the last ten years of my life. 

I decided to move to Florida because it's far from California. On my first day here I met this girl named Lilia Buckingham, she introduced me to her friends, Sky Katz, Anna Cathcart, and Pilot-Paisley Rose, I was also introduced to her girl friend, Jillian Shea Speared.

They all lived together so I moved in with them. They're my best friends and I love them so much. Annalise is ten years old and she loves the girls, they love her too. 

I've never told Annalise about the people back in California, I know it's wrong but honestly I don't care. I miss my family which is why i'm gonna take her to visit them for the first time. I'm pretty nervous but honestly, everybody probably forgot about me and what could go wrong. 

Hayley's POV 

It's been ten years since I last saw my older sister. I was 12 last time I saw her now, I'm 22. I miss her but I can't even begin to talk about how much hate I have for her. 

I have no one. My mom and dad passed away in their sleep when I was 14, no one could reach out to Annie so I was all by myself. Then Hayden moved in with me. Soon after Hayden moved in with me, Dylan and Caden did, then Mads, Riley, Dakota, Indiana, Brooke, Matt, Greg, Kenzie, and Carson. Lauren basically lives over here considering she's always here, I love all of them so much they're like family. 

Anyways, right now we were all at the house decorating for Christmas. "Jingle bells, Hayden smells, Lauren go away, Matt is sad cause Brooke won't kiss his little ugly face!!" Carson sing out making everyone laugh but Hayden, Lauren, and Matt. "Haha you're so funny Carson" Lauren says sarcastically. He walks over to give her hug and when he got to where they she was I noticed something. "They're under a mistletoe!" I shout pointing at the mistletoe above them, they look at each other and start blushing. Everybody started chanting, Kiss, and they did. It was such a cute moment. I always knew Lauren liked Carson considering she told me. I feel like a proud mother even though i'm the baby of the group. 

"Let's make cookies!!"Dakota yells.

I don't wanna be cliche but this moment felt magical and I want to stay in this moment forever.

Juliann's POV

I was on the plane with Annalise back to California. I couldn't wait to see my parents and sister. 

~ 4 hours later ~

We got off the plane and we we're outside waiting for our uber. "Mom. How come you never told me about my family here?" Annalise asked me, I didn't know exactly how to explain it to her. "I don't know, I guess it just slipped my mind until now." I said with a smile. 

Our uber gets here and I give him the address to my old home. When we pulled up the house there were cars parked outside. 

We get out and I hear laughter inside. I grab the spare key from under the outside light. 

I unlock the door and walk in to Christmas decorations and the smell of minty candy canes.

I leave our bags at the door and I grab Annalise's hand and we walk towards the living room because that's where the laughing and talking was coming from. 

When I made it into the living room I was shocked that all my old friends were here, What were they doing here? 

They didn't notice us and I wanted to turn around but Annalise had sneezed causing everybody to turn and look at us. Then I saw his face, Hayden. 

"What are you doing here!?" Hayley yelled getting up. Did I do something wrong. 

Everybody else got up behind her. Except Hayden who stood right by her side. "I came to see my family, what's wrong with that?" I asked with confusion. "Family? What family! You left us Julianna!! You lied to us. You were the only sibling I had left and then you leave!! You don't have the right to say we're your family!" She yells at me with tears in her eyes. She was right, but it was for the best, plus she has mom and dad. "You can't seriously be mad. You had mom and dad with you the whole time." I say calmly to her. Then everybody looked at me like I just said something bad. Then I saw the anger in her eyes after I said that. "I didn't have them for long! They died Julianna! I was only fourteen! I had nobody! I wished and prayed everyday that you would come back but no! You were being selfish! You lied to all of us ! You said you would come back! It's been 10 long ass years without you! I was raped when I was 15 ! I had no older sibling to go to ! I had no parents ! All I had was myself! But lucky enough for me Hayden came along and then so did the rest of them! This is my family Julianna! They never left me like you did!"  She said screaming and crying while her face turned red. Hayden had grabbed her and took her out the living room to calm her down. I can't believe this. I was being so selfish and didn't even think of everyone else. I started crying while they all looked at me. 

I wipe away my tears and look up at them. "Mom who are they?" Annalise asks. 

"Those are your Auntie and Uncles." I say to her.

"Wow you have a lot of siblings." She says looking at them.

"Annie can I speak to you for a moment." Lauren says. I look at her and nod my head 

We walk off into a bedroom.

"Listen, I know you and my brother aren't on good terms but he's a changed person. He misses Annalise everyday. He blames himself everyday for your leaving. All i'm asking is for you to give him another chance to get to know his daughter. Him and Hayden are back friends if you wanted to know." She says before leaving the room. 

Annie you're 26 be smart and mature! Looks like we're giving him another chance .

I walk back downstairs and see Hayden and Hayley in the kitchen...

But they were doing something terribly wrong...

Cliffhanger

Tomorrow, I have school so after that i'll update. Any who there's gonna be two more chapters of Changes and then the book is over. But I might be making a sequel of Annalise grown up and all I'm gonna say is that she's "Confused" 

Ok Bye!!
