Our Stars

Pt.3 The band Mates

CARTERS POV:
We were still sitting in my closet talking and telling old funny stories about ourselves, he was telling me a funny story about when he Ripped his skinny jeans in public because they were too tight. Which made me laugh for like 10 minute straight.

"Carter!Luke!Aleisha! Lunch is ready!!!" My dad called for us

"Lucky Aleisha's not here to wreck everything else right?" Luke said
"Yep" I replied as we made our way downstairs.

"Hey Cart's is it okay if I can invite my mates from the band over?"

"Yah as long as they aren't killers" I said in a laugh.

"Okay I'll go call them right now" he said walking to the hall downstairs

"Where's Aleisha?" my dad asked

"Oh, yah, she and Luke kinda broke up so she left" I managed to say without too much information.
"Oh really? Wow she seemed like a nice girl" he said.

"Yah that's what I thought but she turned out to be really rude and mean"

"Oh okay then I hope she didn't say anything to you, did she?"

"N-no. She didn't" I said awkwardly as I walked away. I have a habit of walking away or avoiding the comment when I'm nervous or I can't answer it but the only person I don't do that with is Luke because I can trust him and just tell him anything.

I went into the backyard where there was the barbecued food on the table and I made me and Luke a burger and put some fries on the side of his and went back inside to see Luke.

"Hey, so are they coming?" I said as I handed him the plate of food.

"Thanks and yeah they'll be her any minute" he said taking a bit out of his burger.

We both finished eating until the guys came.

When Luke went to Open the door I saw 3 tall boys standing In front of me. One had dark brown hair with dark eyes and he looked Asian so I took my chance to say something in Japanese to him.

"Kanichiwah!" (Kan-ni-chi-wah) I said as I pulled my hand forward for him to shake.

"I-umm-what are u doing?" He said as he shakes my hand.
"Aren't you Japanese?"
"Nooo"
"Oh I'm so sorry-I-u see-ididnt-" I got cut off by him pulling me for a hug.

"Haha it's okay a lot of people think that" he said "by the way my name is Calum and I play bass guitar in the band"
"Oh hi Calum my name is Carter"

Then I was introduced to a boy with blond straight hair that had a blue highlight in it. "Hey, I'm Michael And i play guitar in the band!"
"Cool" I said as I hugged him.

Then I was introduced to another boy he also had straight blond hair and he had really pretty hazel eyes.
"Hi I'm Ashton! And I play the drums" he giggled, which was honestly adorable.
"Cool the drums, I can't play the drums but i can play the guitar" I said
"Well maybe I can teach you" he said
"That would be nice thanks" I said as I smiled up at him.

We went upstairs after they ate there burgers. "Hey Carter do you play video games?" Michael asked. "Well it depends, which ones?" I asked.
"Do you play Fifa?" He asked as he looked at me hopefully. "Oh yeah I used to play with my older brother" i said as I was remembering him.

"But Carter you told me you don't have siblings" Luke said softly.

"Yeah, well he passed away a couple years ago" I said as I remember exactly the day and time I saw him hanging their.

"Oh I'm sry" Luke said as he rubbed my back.
"It's fine, really, I mean sometimes we've just got to let go u know?"

"Wait Carter what even happened" Calum asked as he sat in front of me on the bed.
"Don't ask her that" Ashton said to Calum.

"No it's fine I'll tell you guys" I said in disappointment.

"He-Well when I was about 11, this was 3yrs ago, he was in High School in grade 10 and he was getting bullied a lot for so long, but he never said anything about it, he was already depressed and so one day after school he thought he had enough so he came home when my parents weren't home only me, and locked himself in his room I kept calling his name but he wouldn't open it, I didn't know what was going on until I heard him talking to something or someone he said
"I'm sorry that I was a mistake and a fuck up Mom and Dad, I'm sorry that I couldn't be the best older brother to you Carter, I'm sry I was born" then it snapped I knew exactly what was happening, I was crying and screaming and kicking the door to try to get it open but it wouldn't I knew he was going to kill himself but I couldn't let that happen. Finally after a few more pushes on the door nob it finally opened."

At this point of the story I started crying when I remembered the sight I saw of my brother, he hung him self and video taped it and it was terrifying and horrible.

"Shhhh..Carter it's okay,don't continue its okay we know what happened" they all tried to calm me down as the played with my hair and drew circles on my back.

ASHTONS POV:
We all left Carters house a little while later, I felt really bad for her, I thought pretty girls like her never have any problems but I guess I was wrong.

"Carters pretty hot, guys don't you think so?" Michael asked us while I was driving Calum and him home because I'm the only 16 year old with a drivers licence.

"Michael" I scoffed.

"What? Ash you've got to admit she is, and I think you might have a crush on her" Michael said in a laugh.

"What! I just met her, yah okay she is kinda hot but I didn't mean I like her" I said as I pulled into Michaels driveway.

"Come on man, I'll admit it, it kinda looked like you liked her, I mean the way you said 'I'll teach you how to play the drums' was kinda..." Calum trailed off.

"I don't know guys, just whatever." I said as Michael and Calum got out of the car, Calum was sleeping at Michaels house tonight.

"Whatever bye Ashton!" They said as they entered the house.

I backed away from the driveway and made my way back home, maybe I thought Carter was cute but I don't think I like her, i mean I think Luke has a crush on her and I think she feels the same way about him. I really don't know how I feel about her.
