Being Brad's Sister

51. The truth will come out sooner or later

Brad's pov

It has been two days since James snapped at Tristan and told us the reason why he was acting weird, because my sister broke his heart. I'm not going to lie it has been hard. I want to be there for James because he is my best friend but I want to be there for Emma because she is my sister, I just don't know what to do.

Three days ago James and Emma were fine but Emma suddenly dumped him and it tore both of them. They acting completely different to how they usually act. Emma has locked herself in her room, she is barely eating and she has barely stopped crying and listens to the most depressing music ever. She has even been singing her own song about how she 'misses the one she loves'. As for James he isn't doing any better, basically the same as Emma except he won't sing he is refusing. Neither of them are taking it well. I don't see why they just don't get back together. They are made for each other, I don't understand why Emma broke up with him in the first place.

James hasn't been recording but Tristan, Connor and I have been. We have recorded our sections of the songs and when James is ready he is going to record his parts and we are going to edit them together.

Today I am due to record my part for On The Floor, Dangerous and Smile. James isn't due in the studios today so I am bringing Emma with me to get her out of the house for a bit. I don't know if Connor or Tristan are due in but it would probably help her if she saw them.

"Dad will you please get Emma out of her room and into the car we have to go soon and she just keeps saying 'one minute'." I sigh, if we don't leave soon we are going to be late.

"Bradley go easy on your sister." I grunt and go up the stairs again.

"Em come on we have to go." Her door swings open and she comes out dressed in skinny jeans and the shirt that I brought for her for her last birthday. "Finally." I laugh as we head downstairs. Dad has just gotten in to the car ready to go. So Em and I climb into the back so we can talk better.

"Brad thanks for letting me come today. I could do with seeing the guys and starting my life again." She smiles.

"No worries. You know we are all here for you Emzy." I smile back at her before we start talking about what we are going to be doing today.

"So I'm there to sit there and look pretty." She laughs. It is good to see her laugh after the past few days.

"Dean has changed our recording strategy. We are singing our solos separately and the chorus together then we are going to edit it all together because we can't all sing together because it doesn't seem to be getting done that way. James has recorded his parts this morning so he isn't due in now." She tenses up at James' name but nods and shakes it off.

"So while you are doing your bits I can talk to the others and be awesome."

"Exactly." I laugh. Dad pulls up outside the studio gates and we climb out thanking him for dropping us off. I click the buzzer and tell the receptionist who I am, the gates swing open and we run through, racing each other to see who can get to the studio where I am recording first. It is neck and neck until I trip allowing Em to dart past. She flies through the door and I follow seconds later. I bend over to catch my breath for a few seconds before standing up straight and noticing Dean, Joe, Tristan and Connor all looking at us like we're crazy.

"Hey." I smile. "Good to have you back Joe." I say as we sit on the chairs.

"Thanks Brad. Okay so this morning Tristan, you finished recording for Lovestruck and Dangerous so you're done. Connor you too so Tristan you need to do Smile and you are done. Connor you need to do Smile and On The Floor. Brad you need to do On The Floor, Smile and Dangerous." Joe says looking at his list of songs and people left to record it. "So let's start with Brad to give you two a break so Brad we'll do Dangerous first." I nod and step up to the recording booth.
