10.

Niel and Neo had left for school a week ago and Willow and Raine were a little grumpy. Willow had missed her boyfriend, Raine had missed Niel. Those two had a strong connection going on but hadn't worked on it, knowing very well they liked each other.

Niel and Neo we're of the same height, 6'8. Olive skinned, handsome but had different eye colours. Neo had dark brown eyes while Niel had deep grey eyes. Niel was a little heavier than his twin and had dimples. Neo had pink cute lips rather than dimples.

The tension between those two was so thick it could be sawed into half. Mila, Aaliyah, Vanilla and Kiera had planned a little surprise for those two to make them feel better.

With the help of Aaliyah and her friends, they were able to clear out her lair and turn it into a home cinema. They had selected a couple of movies such as; To all the boys I've loved; Always and Forever, The prom, Raja and the lost dragon, and the wish dragon, and Luna.

Naya helped prepare snacks for the movie night as well.

"Movie night, my house and I'm not taking no for an answer." Mila texted her friends.

Raine: Can I pass?

Mila: Nope, you my friend are coming to my place tonight that's final.

Willow: Okay, we would be there at 8 pm. It's better than laying about.

Raine: Fineeeee, I'm on my way now. She texted back. She had heard from her maids that her parents were coming to town that night and she didn't want to be around when they came.

She didn't hate them but, she just wasn't a fan of them and couldn't wait until she left for college.

"Alright, girls freshen up and let's get this night started," Mila told Aaliyah and her friends.

"Aaliyah?!" Willow called for her sister but she was not answering. She climbed upstairs to check her room, she wasn't there either.

" I think she's out with the girls, she could have at least told me before she left," Willow grumbled as she headed for the door grabbing a handful of before locking the door behind her.

" Tell them I said hi," Raine told one of her maids before heading out.

" B-b-but..." the maid trailed off by the sound of the door shutting in her face.

Teenagers, tsk.

" Aaliyah, I've been looking all over the house for you." Willow sighed as she spotted her at her friend's house.

"You could have called," she stuck out her tongue

"I did, you never answered," Willow replied as her sister checked her phone.

"I'm sorry, I guess I was caught up, I forgot to check." she grinned running upstairs.

"Hey, Sweetheart," Mila hugged her friend just as Raine arrived.

"You okay? You seem tense." Willow asked.

"My parents are coming to town tonight." she put.

"Oh, oh I get it. Come on, cheer up." Mila tried to make her smile.

"Come on, this isn't a pity party...you girls go up and freshen up then meet me down here." Mila pushed them towards the staircase as they reluctantly climbed up.

A couple of minutes later, Raine and Willow descended the staircase dressed in their nightwear. Raine had turned off her phone to prevent her parents from reaching her.

"Here we are, now what?" Willow rolled her eyeballs.

" Follow me," Mila led the way down to her old lair which they had just turned into a theatre.

"This is beautiful, thanks, girls," Willow added.

"That's not all, we've got a treat for Ya, get seated and enjoy yourselves," Kiera added as she pressed play.

The first movie was the prom. Halfway along with the movie, Vanilla served them with snacks as they happily watched on.

Mila was glad that their efforts weren't in vain. She was happy she was able to make her friends smile again.

"Next movie please." Raine requested as they started showing Raja and the lost dragon.

" You care for more snacks?" Mila asked.

"I'm craving pasta right now and meatball sauce," Raine said.

" We could place an order for six of us," Aaliyah suggested.

"Not a bad idea," Mila picked her phone and called to place the order. Her tummy rumbled loudly. She had missed her lunch for this surprise and to her, it was worth it.

A couple of minutes into the movie, the doorbell rang and Mila rushed to get it. Their food had arrived. She paid them off and then took the food packs.

She noticed something strange, a hooded man stood across the street staring right into their house. As soon as his eyes met that of Mila, he hurried off.

Mila sent the leader of the watchdogs of their neighbourhood a message explaining what she had seen. She made sure all doors and windows were locked since it was a sleepover.

She grabbed three cans of root beer, three bottles of grape juice, plates and spoons and then headed down the lair.

"Finally, what took you so long?" Willow asked.

"Well, someone was looking through our house I had to alert the watchdogs," she explained.

"I hope everywhere is locked and secured though," Vanilla asked.

"Of course, I made sure of that before coming down here, " she answered. Mila dished out the food and then handed everyone their share and their drinks as well.

"Bon appetit!" she said as they watched their movies while they enjoyed their meal.

"Stop ruining the song, Willow. Next movie please!" Aaliyah added as they all burst into laughter.

" I'm not, you love my voice. Just admit to that fact,"

" Sorry to burst your bubble sister but your voice is so horrible, that my ears are bleeding," she exaggerated.

" Boohoo, next movie, please, and more popcorn" Willow instructed.

" It's coming right up," Mila took the empty popcorn bowl and refilled it. She was glad her friends were much better than she had seen them during the week.

“ Mila your slow ass up!” Willow yelled.
