The Band || 5SOS

Chapter 1

"When are the guys coming over today?" I asked Ryleigh as we got out of the car and headed towards our house.

Our parents usually work late a lot, especially since Ryleigh and I are both in high school, so we pretty much have the house to ourselves.

"Same time as usual some time after 6."

It was about 5:45 right now so that means I don't have much time until four large boys decanted unto our house. Michael Clifford and all of his band mates would be here soon. He and Raleigh have been dating forever, even before high school. Almost everyday this summer the guys came over after their band practice since they're all good friends with Ryleigh after about 5 years, and I'm just her little sister who they like to tease.

"Ok, awesome I'll be in my room doing nothing like usual."

"You know you can hang out with us, it's not like we do anything that you wouldn't like."

"I know I just feel like I always get labeled as the kid sister whenever the group of you hang out." I say making my upstairs.

"I'll tell them to be nice."

"Maybe."

"I'll just tell you when they get here and you can decide if you wanna come and hang out or not." She called up to me.

Once I got into my room I put on one of my many CDs in and started listening to the music flowing from the speakers. It was so loud that I didn't hear Ryleigh yell up to me. What I did hear though was the loud greeting and grumbling of the boys entering the house. Throughout the buzz of conversation coming from downstairs I heard someone yell

"THEN WHERES CARTER?"

I'm not going down there, they'll be nice at first but they never stay that way and I always slightly feel like shit afterwards. After I had made up my mind that I wasn't going down there was a knock on my door.

"Carter they actually want you hang out with us, come on." Ryleigh says quietly.

"They're gonna be nice?" I asked sarcastically.

"Yes, I told them to stop being assholes to you, I mean Ashton isn't really that mean, it's mainly Calum and Luke sometimes Michael but I always yell at him when he does. Just come on down."

I open my door and head downstairs. Before I even finish the steps I'm engulfed in a hug that the entire band is in on.

"We're sorry about being dumb around you." Calum says.

"I'm not I've always been nice to her" Ashton says.

"But you didn't stop us and that's still bullying, which is what my mom says all the time."

"Shut up Luke, we're trying to be nice." Michael says.

"What would be nice is if I got let out of this hug." I say trying to push away from them.

"Nope." Calum says and they all squeeze tighter.

"Ok guys stop it, you're supposed to be being nice right now." Ryleigh says.

They finally let go and I get some breathing room. The boys all start heading into the basement while I stand there in disbelief.

"You gonna come?" Ashton says over his shoulder and I make my way down the stairs.
