"So I was like, Jenny! Get off him, he's way below you! And then she was like, no she isn't! It was so funny because it was clearly a guy and she thought he was a girl! Oh my god, it was like the most hilarious thing ever!" the voice cried, in a heavy Californian accent.
The door opened, and the mysterious guest was identified. It was my older half-sister, Ellie. She had been living in Los Angeles for the past six months, but she wasn't due home until around Christmas.
"Tiffany!" she cried in shock, pushing her male companion out of the door, turning the light on and shutting the door behind her. "What are you doing? Why aren't you at school? And is that Nate?" she asked.
"Yes it is, I'm clearly on my bed, trying to have a private moment with my...."
"Boyfriend" Nate finished my sentence. I looked up at him and smiled. This moment was amazing, but also totally inappropriate on Ellie's part.
"Well if it's Nate, he'd probably like to see my boyfriend too" she said, whilst opening the door and beckoning for him to come back in.
"Joe?" Nate asked, sitting up.
"Hey bro" Joe replied. I sat there stunned. Not only was my half sister dating Nate's brother, but they were in my room, while I was trying to make out with my new boyfriend.
"Hey, great minds think alike! Both going for sisters!" he joked, grabbing Ellie's hips and pulling her in for a kiss.
"Half sisters. What are you two doing here?" I asked, totally confused and angry.
"I just came to return this," she said, throwing my Cartier diamond necklace on my bed "It's a bit damaged, but it's repairable".
"I never gave you this?" I said, to which she explained that she'd taken it before she left.
"Well we're off to look round the city, then we'll be back off to LA tomorrow evening. If I don't see you again, have a good summer!" she said, before being whisked away in her boyfriend's arms. She shouted from the hallway to say "Nice underwear by the way T, Nate's a very lucky man!"
"I'm a lucky man" I heard Joe say to her, then I heard a door slam and voices from behind the closed door.
"Do you ever get the feeling that someone's trying to tell us not to do this subconsciously?" Nate asked, laying back down on the bed and sighing.
"I think you're looking too deep into it sweetie" I said, kissing him on the forehead, and getting up to go and shower.
