Shelby's POV

Something fell out of the bag. It was a pendant... I feel like I've seen it before but I don't know where.

Julia grabbed it and said "ow!" Dropping the pendant in the process.

"Julia are you ok?" I asked her

"I'm fine I just feel a bit li-" just then she passed out and fell on levin, who was blushing

"Julia!" Me, Jess, Malachi, Alexis, Kyle and Joseph screamed at the same time. We brought her to the couch and lay her down there

"Guys... You might wanna take a look at this pendant" Jin said, concerned, from behind us.

"What kind of pendant is it?" I asked. I lust hope it's not what I think it is

"I think you may know... After all you were the one who got to experience it front row" Jin explained

"So you're telling me that Julia and Max are in the nether right now?!" I, kind of, screamed

"I wouldn't say they're in the nether right now... After all there's no nether here... Probably another realm or dimension" Jin explained again, just then an envelope slid through the door. Jess stood up and grabbed it

"That's strange... There's no postage or name of who sent it" Jess noticed. She opened the letter and looked shocked

"What does it say?" I asked her

"On... Nothing... Heh heh"

I grabbed the letter from Jess's hands and read it myself

A bit of it is blurred out so I guess I won't be reading that

"I guess I have to touch the pendant then" I sighed

"No you don't... We're going to find a way to get them without them getting you" Jess cheered

"Really?" I asked

"Yeah! As long as you promise you won't touch it"

"Ok"

"Well it's a Saturday tomorrow so you wanna watch a movie?" Adam asked

"Can't... Me and Jin are fixing the portal tonight"

"Me and Unica can't too... We're hanging out with Katelyn and Nicole tonight" Alesa explained

"I think I'm gonna stay here"

"Ross why don't you stay here with Shelby?" Jess suggested

"Ok... If Shelby allows"

"Sure... I guess"

"So do you guys wanna stay with Shelby or with me and the guys?" Jess asked the kids

"I don't really like hospitals but I think I'll stay with Julia... I'm a good brother" Joseph answered

"Same"
"Ditto"
"Yeah"
"I'll stay too"

"Ok well... We'll head here tomorrow see ya shubs"

"Bye!" I waved as the guys and girls left the room

"So what are we gonna do here?" Ross asked

"Let's get food... I'm hungry"

I looked at the time and saw it was lunch

"Heh just in time too... You guys stay here while me and Shelby get lunch ok?" Ross asked and the kids nodded

Alexis's POV

Shelby and Ross left so we decided to interrogate levin if he does like Julia. I may have a teensy crush on him but lately Kyle has been really nice to me.

"So levin do you have a thing for my little sis?" Joseph asked levin

"No" levin answered

"You know... I have no problem with you dating-" Joseph managed to say

"WHAT THE HECK!?!?" I just met her" levin interrupted

"I guess this is what you call love at first sight" Malachi joked, nudging me

"Shut up" I replied, giggling. Malachi really acted like a big brother to me and he knows about my teensy crush on levin

"You know there's someone else you would like if levin gets married to Julia" Malachi smirked

"What the heck Malachi!"

"Who?"

"Malachi! I swear!"

Malachi just kept laughing, same as Joseph, levin and Kyle were blushing. I wonder why Kyle was blushing?

"So back to the question..... Do you have a thing for Julia?" Joseph asked the same question

"For the last time... N O... No"

"Levin I don't wanna use force but you leave me no choice!" Malachi said, walking towards him

"Tell us the truth or I'll tell HER"

"No don't! I don't have a crush on her!"

"Oh Alexis~"

"Malachi!"

"Did you know that-"

"Malachi!"

"Levin ha-"

"Ok yes I do!"

"Say that again will you?"

"I like Julia... You happy?"

"Very"

"Can you untie me now?" Levin asked, blushing

"No we're interrogating you even more!" Malachi said, I rolled my eyes and untied him

"We heard what we wanted to hear and now I'm untying him" I said, untying him

"Thanks lex" he thanked me, blushing, I just smiled, blushing too

"Hue hue hue! I ship lexis!" Joseph smirked making me and levin blush

"I still ship Levia" Malachi protested

"I ship neither" Kyle also protested

"Is it because you ship-" Malachi smirked but was immediately stopped by Kyle putting his hand on Malachi's mouth

A few minutes later Shelby and Ross came in. They had (food from IHop), (food from IHop), (food from IHop) and (food from IHop). We sat down and I could see that Shelby was uncomfortable, Ross took notice and after that Shelby looked at him and smiled. I bet they're holding hands under the table. I started smirking.

"Psst.... Malachi I bet they're holding hands under the table" I whispered to Malachi, who was beside me

"Yeah... Did you see the sudden change of emotion" Malachi whispered to me

"Yeah"

After we were done eating we watched some movies. We watched frozen, ice age, toy story and lion king. By the time we were done it was 11:43pm so we drifted to sleep.

???

I touched the pendant

I saw darkness then the next thing I know....

I was with Julia and max

Just then a guy I never thought I would see came up to me

"Hello Levin"

Darkness
