Chapter one
I went into my brothers room, tears streaming down my face and he immediately jumped up from his bed, wrapping me in a tight hug. I was one of those lucky girls who was extremely close to their brother. I would always go to to him with my problems and news, whether good or bad.
'Whats wrong, cookie?' He soothed, stroking my hair.
'He broke up with me Jelly Bean!' I cried into his chest.
He sat me down on the end of his bed and crouched down in front of me. He wiped away my tears, held my hands and looked into my eyes. In a serious voice he said,
'He's not worth it sweetie. No one that hurts you is worth your tears. Don't cry over him. Please don't cry... You are worth so much more than that.'
'But...' I started to argue. I had been with my boyfriend Mark since I was thirteen and since then he had cheated on me at least five times. Every time I forgave him, but now three years later he had broken up with me. Just a text.
'I'm done with you Jess. Bored of this sh*t. Too young to be tied down. Catch you later.'
I tried so hard to to be the perfect girlfriend for three years. I spent so much on Christmas, birthday, valentines and anniversary gifts. Even after I found out about the cheating. I just wanted him to be mine. I was young. Then I guess it became a habit and I couldn't and didn't want to stop trying to fight for his attention. Well, he's stopped it all now. I'm going to be an adult soon so I think it will probably work out for the best as I can mature into my own person. Something that I restricted so I could be his girl.
'Jessica, listen to me. Non of this is your fault. I have seen you upset countless times over this guy. He saw that you had so much innocence and trust and thought he'd have an easy target. He probably realises that you're both getting too old for his games now.'
'I should have been able stop this years ago...' I looked down.
He lifted my chin so I was looking into his eyes and said,
'You were young and you wanted an innocent, loving relationship. There is nothing wrong with that. You just chose the wrong guy, that's all.'
'I guess...'
'Come on, I'm taking you for ice cream!' He exclaimed, jumping me up and pulling me with him.
'You are the best brother ever, Jordan!' I giggled, hugging him from behind.
'Only because your the bestest sister, cookie-wookie!' He said turning around to tickle me.

When we got to Rainbow Cones:Our favourite place to get ice cream a waitress that I hadn't seen before lead us to a cosy purple window booth and we ordered our favourite Rainbow Bubblegum ice cream.
When she came back with our orders she smiled at us and said,
'I don't know if this is appropriate or not, but I just have to say that you two make such a cute couple!'
We burst out laughing at the same time.
'What?' She asked looking at us completely bewildered.
'He's my brother!' I laughed.
'Oh! No way! I'm so sorry!' She blushed bright red.
'It's fine' I smiled.
'Can I just ask why you thought we were a couple?' Jordan asked her.
'Oh, I don't know. You two just look so happy and close! I've never seen siblings this close!' She explained.
'Im one of the lucky ones' I smiled, 'I've got an amazing brother'.
'Yeah, I got a sweet and funny cookie for a sister' Jordan grinned.
I laughed as the waitress became more confused.
'Don't worry about it, yeah?' He said, smiling at her. We had been asked similar questions a few times before. I could understand why as we didn't look very similar and the way we acted could be seen as the way couples would act with one another.
'Okay. Well, enjoy your ice cream' she said before smiling and walking away.
'So my dear, would you like to arrange the wedding?' Jordan laughed.
'Why of course! We really should plan for the arrival of Benjamin and Georgia!' I gushed.
'I hope Benjamin is born a year or two before Georgia so he can be her protecter!'
'Yes! Yes! Our son will care for his sister greatly. She will never have to worry with him and us around to care for her!'
'Him neither, dear! He will be our prince and she our princess!'
'Of course! But first, the wedding!!'
'Yes, the wedding!'
'Um, are you ready to pay?' The waitress said coming back to our table awhile later.
We couldn't stop laughing as we left the ice cream parlour. We had just explained to a waitress that thought we were a couple that we were actually brother and sister, only for her to come back to hear us discussing the plans for our wedding and future children! We couldn't stop laughing long enough to tell her that it was just one of our jokes. It would be funny the next we went there and she was working.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
That night I was in Jordan's room cuddled up to him on his bed as we watched Another Cinderella Story.
'Remind me why I let you pick the movie again?' He said, poking me in the arm.
'Because you love me and ow!' I giggled snuggling up to him and laying my head on his chest.
'What's the matter, sweetie? Did that hurt you?' He laughed, wrapping his arms around me.
'I love you, jelly bean!' I smiled up at him.
'I love you too, cookie!' He said and gently kissed my forehead.
'You really are the best brother, Jordan' I said.
'And you are the best sister' he replied.
'No, seriously. I've never met anyone like you. You care so much. You are always here when I need you. You make me feel so safe and loved.' I stared into his eyes.
'Thats because I love you, Jessica. You are an amazing person and you don't know how lucky I feel that you are my sister!' He stared back into my eyes.
I suddenly felt that tingly feeling. That feeling you get when you're with a guy you really like. Where you go all hot and feel a little dizzy. Where you long for them to kiss you and-
