Chapter 15

"Hey Kathy its you", Julie said with a smile.

"Hey babe I have been waiting for you" Julius said standing up and hugged her. Once they let go of each other Kathy hugged Julie and Andrew and then Alicia

"Its been a while rival" she said "yeah and even though hate to admit I really missed you" Alicia said and they all laughed. Kathy then hugged Sarah and Susan and asked

"Oh my god, when did you guys get to California",

"We got here yesterday Kathy and we asked brother Julius about you he told us you had been busy traveling around lately" Sarah

"Yeah I have been jumping around like a bee, the life of a criminal lawyer isn't easy you know but due to your good luck I am free for a while now so don't worry I will be able to accompany you till you are in California". "Hey partners, its been a while" She said and high fived Justin, Zack and Jay.

"Yeah boss and hell we missed you"Zack said and hugged her,

"Me too", Kathy said with a smile.

She hugged Zia and Suzy and asked and

"How are you two and yes more importantly how have you two been treating my partners they look like they have lost weight".

"Come on sister Kathy they are still alive aren't they so who cares about their weight" Zia said and

"Even brother Julius seems to have lost weight" Suzy said and they all burst into laughter.

"You two", Kathy said and sat down and

"Who is this beautiful young lady we've got here" she asked facing Aria.

"This is Aria, she is my girlfriend Boss",

"oh my.... so my forever single brother finally got a girlfriend what a miracle. Tell me something which angel spoke to you we need to thank him after all we all are indebted to him" Kathy said and they all laughed again.

"Its Zia boss, she is the angel", Zack said.

"Thank you so much Angel Zia, you have saved the Jackson family from a disaster or they wouldn't be having the next generation in that family" Kathy said standing up then bowed and everyone burst into laughter. "Right Kathy", Andrew said laughing

"Come on Boss", Jay said

"Hi Aria my name is Katherine D'Souza but you can call me Sister Kathy just like Zia and Suzy does, I am Julius's fiancee", Kathy introduced herself.

"I know you Sister Kathy" Aria said

"Really you do", sister Kathy asked

"Of course I do, who doesn't know you, you are California's Top criminal lawyer and I have heard my dad talking about you lot of times", Aria said with a smile.

"Your dad", Kathy asked confused.

"I am Aria Athens, Judge Carmen Leo Athens's daughter",

"oh my god, you are teacher's daughter", Kathy said and stood up

"I can't believe this how is he. I haven't seen him in a long while", Kathy said in shock and hugged Aria.

"so Aria's father is Sister Kathy's teacher what a small world" Alicia thought.

"He is fine and I will definitely tell him I met his beloved student", Aria said

"Sure please do I will visit him sometimes", Kathy added.

"Wow how nice, it's a small world indeed" Andrew said. "Anyways guys all that's well ends well so shall we leave now", Julius said.

"Yeah let's go", They all chorused and stood up.

"Bye kids have fun" Julie and Andrew said behind them "Bye" They all said and left. When they got outside the house, there were six race bikes parked outside. "Wow it's been long I had seen this babies" Alicia said and rubbed the bikes.

"But there are only six bikes and we are eleven" Susan said

"Well everybody is riding with a partner Susan", Julius said and hopped on his bike with Kathy, Justin also hopped on his with Zia, Zack also got on his with Suzy while Jay and Aria rode another one, Susan and Sarah also got on another bike. Alicia looks at all of them with her hands crossed on her chest and they all looked at each other and burst into laughter.

"Sorry pumpkin you are the only one without a partner",

"Forget it single means no trouble so am happy to be without a partner" Alicia said and hopped on the bike, and they all laughed and drove out.

"YAAAY.....this is so much fun" Zia shouted.

"Come on guys increase your speeds Alicia has left us behind", Kathy shouted and they all zoomed forward.

They drove around for an hour before going to the skiing ground.

"Oh my god guys its been a while I skied", Suzy said excitedly "Me too", Aria said,

"Am so excited" Kathy added.

They all wore their ski shoes and began, they skied for three hours before stopping when they became tired. "Lets leave guys we have got another destination" Julius said and everyone packed up

"Baby I am so tired, piggy back me", Zia said to Justin and he carried her on his back.

"We too we have got such sore feet right, Suzy" Aria said dramatically. "Yes Aria. I just thought maybe they wouldn't be able to piggy back us they are also tired", Suzy said

"No we aren't tired, we will piggy back you as well" Zack said and he and Jay carried there respective girlfriends.

"How dramatic", Alicia said and rolled her eyes.

"Even you should piggy back me", Kathy said holding Julius's arm.

"Oh hello, what do you mean by that sister Kathy. My boyfriend only ever piggy backs me there is no way I am going to allow him to carry you and by the way he is tired so walk" Alicia said holding Julius's second arm "Rival, you seem to keep on forgetting that Julius is my fiance so why can't he piggy back me", Kathy said with her hands on her hips.

"Because he only ever piggy backs me ever since childhood, so you..... walk", Alicia said again.

"This is so unfair this lady has stolen my boyfriend from me" Alicia thought glaring at Kathy.

"Pumpkin do you want me to piggy back you", Julius asked with a smile

"No I can walk, but you mustn't piggy back her either", Alicia said with pouted lips.

"Hey girl what do you mean by that, if you do not want him to carry you let him carry me at least.", Kathy said looking annoyed.

"Brother Julius sort out your two girlfriends our backs are about to break", Justin said.

"What do you mean baby, am I heavy", Zia asked

"Are am i heavy too honey" Aria asked glaring at Jay

"Speak for yourself Justin why are you using collective pronouns your back is about to break not ours did we complain to you", Jay asked looking at Justin.

"No baby you are so light just like a feather, I can even run with you" Jay said trying to pacify his girlfriend.

"Don't worry baby you don't have to run", Aria said smiling and made herself more comfortable on his back.

"I was only saying that to hasten them up. I am not tired baby don't worry", Justin said with his face scrunched up.

"Better" Zia said satisfyingly

"Pumpkin don't worry I won't piggy back her but I can princess carry her right", Julius asked Alicia

"Uhhum I can compromise on that", Alicia said and let go of my his arm. Kathy snorted and said

"uhum you are my biggest rival in this life, Alicia I can't wait for you to get married so you can leave my boyfriend to me alone".

"Don't worry Sister Kathy your wish is about to be fulfilled....", Justin was saying when Alicia glared at him and he quickly shut up.

"What do you mean Justin", Jay asked.

"Nothing" he quickly said and ran away with Zia on his back.

Alicia carried their bags and followed Sarah and Susan out, By the time they got to the bike Justin, Jay and Zack were still so far behind and they were sweating really hard while their beloved girlfriends were having a picnic on their back, the three of them had their mouth stuffed with food and there were more in their hands and in front of them.

"Run faster baby", Zia said with burger in her mouth, "Sure my love almost there", Justin said and ran forward. Alicia, Sarah, Susan and Kathy almost cried from laughter. Alicia turned to Sarah and said

"At this rate my mom is going to lose one of her sons" and started laughing again.

Jay was the most pitiful of all, Aria wasn't just eating but also playing games on his back,

"Bend more baby my Ipad is about to fall", she said

"Then hold it sweetheart if I bend more I won't be able to run", Jay said frowning

"I have snacks in my hand how will I be able to hold it", Aria said again

"OK baby I will bend" Jay said about to cry.

"Suzy pass me the bottle water", Zia said

"Baby move closer to Zack, I want to collect water from Suzy" She told Justin.

"Baby move towards Justin I want to give water to Zia", Suzy said.

"Sure my love I will", Zack said and moved closer to Justin. "This is so funny", Susan said making a video of them.

"Are you guys trying to break my partners back they are all tired", Kathy said. The three of them looked at their boyfriends and asked

"Are you tired baby", the three guys looked at each other and thought "of course we are tired we can't even feel our backs anymore" but Justin said to Zia

"No baby, you just relax we aren't tired",

"Good", "See Sister Kathy they aren't tired", Zia said and Susan, Sarah, Alicia, Julius and Kathy burst into laughter again.

They all finally got to the rest and the three of them immediately dropped their girlfriends, but they still couldn't stand up straight so the girls decided to drive the bikes. Alicia looked at the three boys and said

"I told you been single means no trouble, no worries" she laughed and rode off. "The three of them will probably not be able to walk straight for a week. The others also hopped on their bikes with their partners and drove off behind Alicia, their next stop was the arcade.
