el:
*summer break*
the time has finally come, i'm going to la. i'm so ecstatic!

"elizabeth! let's go we can't be late," edwin exclaims.

"UGH. don't call me that. wait one sec!"

i sprint down the stairs so he would stop calling me "elizabeth".

"okay bye mom and dad we love you," edwin and i say.

we take an uber to the airport since our parents had work.

*plane ride, new york->california*

that airplane ride was so long but so peaceful.
we get off the plane and we retrieve our luggage and outside, a guy with glasses was waiting for us. he has "HONORET" on a sign and is waving it around. he looks like one of my brother's band members. i think his name is brandon or something.

"well there's brandon, c'mon el, let's go," he says, rushing me.

i experienced one of the cutest things ever,
brandon and edwin hugged like they haven't seen each other in five years, realistically speaking it has only been three weeks.

"hi, i'm el."

"yea i know, you're edwin's musically talented sister."

in my mind i'm like, "woah my brother actually talks about me."

"el, what's up? you're usually loud as fuck," edwin grinned.

"shut the fuck up asshole."

"i'm just kidding baby sis i love you."

i roll my eyes.

the ride to their house was fun they let me play my ratchet ass music which of course i'm thankful for. we arrive at the house it is around 5pm. no one's here, and plus i'm very exhausted, so i probably wouldn't even really talk to anyone. edwin showed me my room. it happens to be right in front of his and i decide to take nap. my nap turned into me sleeping. i got more than eight hours of sleep. i wake up at 3 in the morning and i am really hungry, i didn't eat my dinner. i'm debating whether or not i should wake my brother up but i knew he was tired because he was up the whole night. so i decide to find food myself. i go down to the kitchen and i see a really tall guy all up in the fridge. he has blonde dreads, oh fuck, it might be the hottie, uhh zion?

"hi there!"

he jumps up, i definitely surprised, him that's for sure, "hi? are you el? edwin's sister? or another one of nick's girls."

"el."

"zion."

"what are you doing up? it's so early."

"shouldn't i be asking you that question. i slept for a good ten hours and now i'm hungry. i didn't see you when edwin and i arrived. in fact it was just brandon because he picked us up from the airport."

"ohhhh, well the other boys and myself were in the gym. but anyways, i'm hungry too, you wanna eat together? we could go to mcdonalds or something there's no food in the fridge."

"oh okay cool, i'll just throw on a sweater and get my stuff."

dude zion is a HOTTIE. he looks so good in person.

i go up my room and scrummage through my luggage for a sweater. i just remember that one of my suitcases is in edwin's room and all my sweaters happen to be in that suitcase. LOVELY! i look inside edwin's room, but i can't see well and i didn't want to turn on the lights because he wakes up really easily.

"hey, zion? can i borrow a hoodie or sweater. i left mines in edwin's room and he's sleeping."

"for sure. hold up." he walks up to his room.

he hands me a black champion hoodie. keep in mind zion is really tall. he seems to be around 6'0, maybe taller? and i'm 5'2. i put on the hoodie and it covered my ass and the sleeves were huge. it smelled nice though. "you look cute in baggy clothes," he says, smiling. "thanks," i blush.

we have to walk to mcdonalds, and it's ten minute walk. in those ten minutes we might get to know each other a little bit.

"so uhh, how old are you?" he says nervously, for some odd reason.

"i'm 14, about to be 15 in two weeks, july 18. you?"

"dang," i heard him say under his breath. but from "experience" i didn't question him.

"19, i turned 19 about a week ago on the 29th of june."

"oh, well happy belated birthday!" i give him a hug. again he's super tall, it was a struggle reaching him.

we finally reached the mcdonalds. we both order pancakes. i want to pay for my own food but he keeps insisting to pay, so i let him.

we eat there. there is no one here, given it's already 3:30ish in the morning. we continue to talk and i start to like him, his personality and on top of that he's a cutie. but i guess i am a little too young for him. in the back of my mind i'm like "age doesn't matter. if it's love, then so be it."

"so. uhh... did you ever have a boyfriend?" he asks. i'm honestly shocked. was this my chance?

"no, because edwin and my parents didn't want me to date till i turned 15. but unfortunately i've been through heartbreak," i put my head down.

he lifts up my chin and looks straight into my eyes. i felt secure when he looked at me.

"how about you? ever had a girlfriend?"

"no... i want to find the right girl. i want my first to be my last."

"seriously, what the fuck you're hot!" i exclaim. he started giggling nervously.

"oh shit, i just said that out loud didn't i?" he nods his head and we both get really red.

that just makes me like him ten times more. i'm honestly shocked, he's so attractive, a sweetheart, and there's a bit of wildness in him.

we both finished our food. i checked the time, it was 4:48am and we've been in that mcdonalds for over an hour... flirting. but i'm not complaining. i'm glad i got to know him. we got home, hugged each other goodnight? good morning? i don't know what to call it and we immediately go inside our rooms.

zion:
dang. she might be a little young, and i wonder how edwin would react but, i really like this girl. she's outgoing, she likes to have fun, she's adorable... she's perfect. damn. she seems fearless. SHE CALLED ME HOT. i might actually have a chance with this girl. i just hope nick doesn't get her. thankfully, all the other guys are taken.
