Brothers Best Friend

Prologue

November 1, 2011

"So what you're saying is you're considering joining another band?" I asked confusion clear in my voice.  "Yeah. They're kinda annoying and immature but I have to admit they're talented." My brother Ashton said scanning the contents of the fridge. "What about Swallow The Goldfish?" I asked hopping up and sitting on the counter. "I don't know I just wasn't feeling it, It didn't put out the right vibe I was looking for."Ashton shrugged closing the fridge. "And this new band. It puts out the right vibe?" I said picking at my nails. "I don't know, we have our first gig December 3rd but they goof around a lot. Actually we have a practice today and I'm supposed to be there in a few." He said walking out of the kitchen. I followed him upstairs and into his room. "Ooh can I come. Wait no I'm coming." I said running to my room and pulling on my all black converse in contrast with my pale legs. "Hurry up!" Ashton called from downstairs. "Coming!" I said pulling my hair up in a messy bun. 

I hopped on the pegs of Ashtons push bike as he started riding away. "How far away are we going anyway?" I said clutching onto his shoulders. "Around 1- 2 kilometers." He giggled.  

We pulled up to a house and you could hear music blaring from inside. I tried to stifle a laugh but Ashton noticed. "What's so funny?" he said cocking an eyebrow up. "You really wore that shirt?" I burst out laughing. "What do you mean" He looked down at his shirt, "What's wrong with my shirt?"  But before more could be said the music stopped and the front door opened. "Hey Ashton!" A boy with blonde hair and a grey shirt on called from the door. "Hi Michael." Ashton said giving him one of those guy hug things. "And who's this?" Presumably Michael said waving at me. "Oh! This is Annabelle my little sister." Ashton smiled giving me a side hug. "Little. How old is she?" He said motioning for us to follow him into the house. "She's 16 like you guys. Well exept Luke he's still 15. Right?" Ashton asked as we entered the house. Michael let out a chuckle. "Yeah."

There were two other boys there. "Oh Annabelle this is Calum" Michael said pointing to boy with dark hair and chocolate eyes, "And this is Luke." He gestured to a boy with blonde hair and blue eyes. I gave a small wave to each of them. "Calum, Luke this is Annabelle. Ashtons little sister."
