"Chloe get up! Your gonna make us late for the bookclub meeting!" My twin brother, Robert, yelled at me as he burst into the room. "I don't want to go Rob." I said back as I placed my phone next to me and propped myself up on my elbows. "Well you have to." He said as he walked back out. "Aghhhhh." I said loudly as I fell back onto the bed. I picked up my phone to check the time. 9:57. The meeting starts at 10:30 so I better start getting ready. I hoped out of bed and walked over to my closet. I picked out my outfit and placed it on my bed, I then got my towel and walked over to the shower. Once I had finished running the water, I closed the door to my bathroom and hoped it. Normally my showers would take about half and hour, but today I didn't have time so I had a 10 minute one, giving me 15 minutes to get ready. Once I got dressed I brushed my teeth and did my hair. I than put on my makeup and I was ready. I went over to my bedside table and grabbed the book we were meant to be reading. It was called, The Hobbit: blah blah blah, it was pretty interesting. It's about this hobbit named Bilbo Baggins that goes on a quest to fight a dragon or something. I haven't finished it yet. I walked downstairs to see Rob sitting on the chair watching and episode of SpongeBob with my little brother Bailey. Bailey was 12 years old but cater like he was 5. I quietly chuckled to myself as I walked into the kitchen and grabbed myself and apple. "Rob! You ready to go?" I asked as I walked in. "Yep!" He jumped up of the couch and walked over to me. "Leggo!" He shouted as he pointed towards the front door and ran outside. I followed after him. We had 5 minutes to get to the library, it was only like a 2 minute walk. Rob was skipping in front of me singing 'were off to go to the library to read about the Hobbit.' Once we got to the library I was halfway finished with my apple, so I too one last bite and threw the rest in the bin since were not allowed food inside. Rob slowed down a bit so I catch up with him. "So, ChloBo, how far have you got?" Rob asked as he put one of his arms around my shoulder. "I'm only up to like chapter 5 or something. What about you Robbie?"

"I'm nearly finished, I've got about 3 more chapters than I'm done!" He said proud of himself. Once we got the the room where we normally had the meetings Rob pulled his arm off my shoulder and opened the door. "After you me lady." He said in a posh British accent and bowed down. "Why thank you kind sir." I said in the same accent and I walked in. Once I got in we started to laugh. Once we calmed down we went and took a seat. We normally sit in a circle and tell each other about how were enjoying apt he book, and say our favourite part and everything. I sat in the seat I always sit in, Rob on my left, and my friend Brandon on my right. Brandon and I have been really best friends since year 1, and were still going strong 10 years on. "Hey BamBam!" I said as I gave him a hug and we did out little handshake we made up when we were 12 years old. "Hey CoCo." He said as he hugged me back and did the little handshake. I noticed a new face sitting next to Brandon. "Brandon, who's the guy next to you?" I asked. "Oh, this is my cousin Shawn, his visiting us for the month." He answered as he pulled out his phone. "So....." I said. "So what?"

"Introduce me you nincompoop." I said as I hit him in the arm. "Ow, alright. Shawn this is my friend CoCo... I mean Chloe." Brandon said as he pointed to tme. "Hey." He said as he smiled. "Hey, nice to meet you." I said back.

"Okay, well that's it for this week guys. Remember the next meeting is in 3 weeks." Dan, the leader of the club said. I said goodbye to my friends there and walked out with Rob, Brandon and Shawn. "So guys... I was wondering if you wanted to come to the fair with me next week, it's on Saturday." Brandon said. "Yeah that'd be great." Robert and I said at the same time. We just looked at each other and high fived. "So Brandon..... Mind introducing me to your friend?" Robert asked. "Oh right, Robert this is my cousin Shawn, Shawn this is my friend Robert or Rob." Brandon said.

"Or Robbie!" I butted in before anyone could say anything else. "Don't call me that." Robert said thorough gritted teeth. "Or what?" I asked jokingly. He looked at me and smirked. Before he could do anything I got the hint I should probably run. I began sprinting off I front of him. He will probably catch up soon because he is faster than me. As I slowly got further away, and ran out of breath, I stopped to see if he was anywhere near. I turned around and he was nowhere in sight. I closed my eyes and caught my breath. Just before I opened my eyes a pair of arms wrapped around my waist. I started to scream and kick my legs. "It's just me ChloBo." I heard Robert say as he placed me down. I turned around and punched him in the stomach. "ROBERT JAI CORKIN! You almost gave me a heart attack!" I yelled at him. I heard the laughter of two teenage boy. I looked behind Robert to see Brandon and Shawn laughing their heads off. "It was not funny!" I yelled and I stomped and crossed my arms. "It kinda was CoCo." Brandon said. I turned away so I wasn't facing them and walked away. "Chloe it was just a joke!" I heard Rob yell. "Yeah Chlo! He wasn't serious!" Brandon yelled after him. I smirked to myself as I continued walking. I know how frustrated they get when I give them the silent treatment. I could tell they were running up to me cause I could hear the feet on the pavement. "Please talk to me ChloBo!" Robert pleaded. "But CoCo I didn't even do anything, it was Robert!" Brandon complained. "What! She called me Robbie so of course I was gonna do something." Rob said back. The two of them ended up fighting over if it was Rob fault or not. I looked over at Shawn to see he was just looking at the ground. "You don't talk as much as them two do ya?" I asked. "Ehh. Once you get to know me you'll be shocked." He said. I let out a small chuckle. I noticed Rob and Brandon had stopped fighting. "So your talking to him!" Robert complained. "He didn't do anything." I said back shrugging my shoulder. "Ha! You talked to me!" Rob said. I just rolled my eyes. "You talked to me! You talked to me!" He said dancing around. "You couldn't keep yourself from talking to the sexiest person in the world could ya."

"Of course not!" I joked as I looked at him and fluttered my eyelashes. "You love me!" He said as he hugged me. "I do!" I said back as I hugged him. I heard Shawn chuckle a bit. "You two get along don't you?" He asked. "Of course, his my twin! What would I do without him." I said as I smiled. "You'd probably die." Rob joked. I stopped walking. "I probably would." I said dramatically. Shawn and Brandon started laughing. "We're being serious." Rob and I said at the same time. They stopped laughing and looked at us. "Ohh....." Shawn said. Rob and I burst into laughter. "We were joking." Rob said. "Ohh..." Shawn said again. We continued walking until we had to go our separate ways. "I'll miss you BamBam! Don't forget about me." I said as I fake cried and hugged him. "I won't CoCo!" He said back hugging me tighter. Once we let go and said goodbye to Shawn we went the way to get home. We walked silently until Rob stopped dead in his tracks. "What?" I asked. "Can't you feel that?" He said. I shook my head. "It's starting to rain!" He shouted and ran grabbing my arm pulling me along. A few moments later it was pouring and our house was another 5 minutes away. We sprinted as fast as we could since we didn't have umbrellas. Once we got home we ran inside. "What happened to you too?" Bailey asked us. "Well it started pouring with rain when we were halfway home." Rob said. "Ha! Sucks to be you too." He said as he walked into the launge probably watching SpongeBob. "Well I'm gonna go take a shower." I said as I walked towards the shower. I got a pair of sweatpants and a pyjama shirt, laid it on my bed than hoped in the shower. Once I was don't I hoped out and got dressed. I threw my hair into a messy bun and walked out of my room. "Rob! I'm borrowing one of your sweaters!" I yelled as I walked into his room. I picked out my favourite one. His ADIDAS one. It was so comfy and warm. I than went into the launge room and sat down next to Rob. He was on his phone on Instagram. I pulled out my phone and went onto Instagram. "Take a selfie with me." I said to Robert. He put his phone down and wrapped and arm around my shoulder. I put my head on his shoulder and snapped the photo. After we took the photo we stayed in the position we were in because it was comfy. "Cuddles with twin! ;) @Rob_J_Corkin" I put as the caption than posted it. A few moments late I saw someone had tagged me in a photo. I clicked on it and it was one of Baileys photos. It was a photo of me and Rob taking a selfie a moment ago with the caption, "they take a selfie and don't even ask if I want to join! What horrible siblings :(! @Rob_J_Corkin @ChloeJaneCorkin" I started to chuckle. "Bailey! Come take a selfie with us." I said. He same over and hoped behind the couch pulling a stupid face. Once we were done Bailey went back and sat down on the love seat. I posted it with the caption. "Corkin Siblings UNITE! You happy Bails? @Bailey_Corkin" a few minutes later Bailey replied. Once I read his reply I put my phone on the coffee table and laid down with my head on Robs legs, I watched SpongeBob for a bit before Rob lifted my head up and laid down behind me and put his arms around me, I turned around to face him and snuggled closer. Rob and I cuddle all the time, mum thinks it's kind of funny since she hasn't seen many other siblings do it before. A little bit after I began to drift off to sleep.
