Jesse's P.O.V

I'm Jesse Young. Captain of the soccer team, the most popular guy at my school, and older brother of Emma Young by a year. Even though i'm older, I get told that Emma's the more "mature" one out of the two of us. How cliche, right? Is it cliche or stereotypical, that I'm looking for? Whichever one it is, it's usually what happens in the books, the movies. You have a brother and a sister, and usually the sister is the favorite child. But enough of getting off track, let's get on with what I'm about to do, which is steal Emma's phone.

My sister isn't as extroverted as me. Yes, she has friends but in my opinion, she needs to be more social. Emma was currently jogging right now, and my parents were out of the house, so that gave me the perfect opportunity to do this. Emma's always getting praised for her academic awards but leaving your phone in the house to go jogging, leaving it with your brother? Not very smart. But, if you were wondering why I needed to steal my sister's phone in order to give her an opportunity to be more social, it's because I know if i suggested it to my sister, she would never actually do it. So, instead, I was thinking I would go into her snapchat, add some of my soccer friends, and baseball friends -- oh yeah. did I mention I also played baseball? No? Well I do. Back to the point. I was thinking of adding some of my friends on her snapchat and stuff. I already discussed with them so that when they saw that 'Emma' added them, they would snapchat her first. Of course it's not all just guys, hell no.

I turned the doorknob to her room and immediately saw it on her desk, next to her laptop. I took it, turned it on, and expectedly, she didn't have a password. I took out my phone as well, went into my snapchat, and looked at the usernames of my friends. I clicked on the first snapchat I saw. Daniel Reid. Daniel was one of my best friends. We met at summer camp three years ago and still keep in touch. No, he doesn't go to me and Emma's school. Emma doesn't know most of my friends, because of what I explained earlier, and whenever I try to suggest to her to meet them, she just gives me an excuse. I quickly typed in the username and pressed 'add.'

Just as I was about to type in another username, I heard the front door downstairs open. Crap! Emma was already home?! I knew I shouldn't have waited. I quickly closed the app, turned off her phone, and got out of her room.

New story! How'd did you guys like it? Should I continue it? No? Yes?  But if you wanted to know, I imagined Daniel to look like K.J Apa & Emma to look like Selena Gomez. But again, don't limit your imagination to those who I imagine them to look like, feel free to think of them as another celebrity of whatever.
