ANNIE'S POV
That weekend had been such a bummer. The only good thing about it had been hanging out with Megan at the beach. When I went back home that evening I was tired,but all that went out the window when I found Harry making himself a sandwich in the kitchen with Sheryl.
I smiled when I saw him. He looked really handsome. Not that he wasn't good looking,but he looked even more attractive with the way he was dressed. He was obviously dressed up to go somewhere."Annie!" Sheryl cheered when she saw me. The little bundle of joy got off her chair and ran into my arms.
"Hi Sher," I kissed the first-grader.My sister was just the cutest.
"Aaw,look at the two of you being all adorable." Harry snickered. I smiled at him and walked over to where he was,Sheryl still in my arms.
"Look at you,all dressed up.Where to?" I asked,stealing one of the sandwiches from the plate in front of him.
"To a party."He answered."Daniel and I are going.Wanna come?" I smiled.Me,accompany Harry to a party? Well,yes! Why not?
"So whose party is it?" I asked.
"Sophia's." He replied."its her birthday."
My heart sunk immediately. If it was Sophia's party then I wasn't going to go. I knew she was going to be all over him and I wouldn't be able to stand seeing that.
"Oh.."I sighed."You guys go ahead then. Have fun.I don't think I'll be able to go." I said as I put Sheryl down.
Harry raised his eyebrows at me."Are you sick?" He asked,concern laced in his voice."You never turn down a party invitation."
"I'm just tired,that's all.Its been a crazy day for me and Meg."I lied,and turned around so fast I almost tripped on myself. I walked out of the kitchen and ran up to my room. I didn't want anyone to see me cry.

I was up by six a.m that Sunday morning. While I made breakfast I heard the front door open and close.A short while later Daniel staggered into the kitchen.it was obvious he was drunk."You idiot,if mum and dad see you you'll get into trouble!" I whispered loudly as I ran to him."Go to your room I'll bring you a whole mug of coffee!"I pushed him up the stairs and let him drop on his bed.I took his shoes off,opened up a few buttons on his shirt and raced back downstairs to get the coffee. By the time it was ready,I found him dead asleep.That idiot. I slapped him awake and he let out a long wail."That hurt!" He cried,but I ignored him and helped him sit up.
"If you don't want me to slap you then you shouldn't be getting drunk!" I scolded."Have some coffee,take a shower then you can get some sleep,you fool.You stink so bad!" I poured him some coffee in a cup then left his room. His smell alone was enough to kill a plant. It was a miracle I hadn't gagged to death.
While I was eating mum and dad came down and I took it upon myself to serve their plates as well. We ate together and then I went to my room to do my homework. Almost everything was due tomorrow and I had barely made any progress in any of them.As I struggled with my biology essay my phone started ringing. it was Megan.
"Hey," I answered.
"Hey,Annie.I was wondering if you'd like to join me for coffee down at Arnold's?"
"Why are you having breakfast at Arnold's Meg?"
"I'm still mad at Adam for last night." She replied."Well?"
I sighed."i would love nothing more than to hang out,but I have stuff to do."
"What stuff?"
"Homework. Due tomorrow. Its a lot." I answered flatly.
