(IMPORTANT!!! The beginning on this book isn't very good [in fact most of it is omg so im basically like hardcore editing it rn] because my writing when I wrote the beginning sucked so please bear with me, it gets better as you go on I promise.)

PROLOGUE

Stephanie

"No, go after the guy to the right!" I yelled into the mic I used for my Xbox 360, frantically moving my thumbs on the joysticks.

"I'm trying!" The guy I was playing with online said back, his gamertag was 'Blkdotmike', his real name was Michael. That was basically all I knew about him, other than the fact that he lived in Sydney, Australia.

"Stephanie! Come downstairs, dinner's ready!" I heard my mom shout from downstairs.

"Sorry Michael, gotta go, play tomorrow at our usual time?" I breathed out, my stomach growling, begging that I feed it.

"Yeah, bye!"

"Bye." I said, turning my Xbox off.

I ran downstairs into my dining room, where my older sister - Clara - sat, along with my younger brother, - Liam - and my younger sister, Megan.

Clara was eighteen, Liam was fourteen, and Meghan was only twelve. My mom and dad sat at the ends of our dining room table, eating their spaghetti.

I sat down next to Clara, and my mother looked up at me, dissapointment settling in her eyes.

"You should really brush your hair, Stephanie." She said quietly, as my entire family looked and stared at me.

"There was no time to, and who cares anyway?" I said, shrugging. They were my family, I didn't have to look perfect for them.

But just for my mother, since I could tell my hair was really bothering her, I grabbed my long, light brown hair and put it up into a tight bun.

"Better?" I asked, smiling at my mum.

"Better." She gave a weak smile, then continued eating her spaghetti.

I know this is short, but it gives you insight to what kind of girl Stephanie is, and her family's structure.

It'll take a couple chapters to get to when 5SOS are introduced, so don't leave me just yet!
