My Best Friend's Brother

Chapter 11

  

  I stared at him in shock. Kiss him! No way.  “I-I,” I stuttered looking for something to get out of this.
 

   “Come on Chris, let her go.” Asher’s voice rang out behind us. I sighed in relief as Chris let go of me. “Here.” He held out his hand helping me out of the pool.
  

  I placed my hand in his and he pulled me up and I crashed onto his chest. He took a step back steading us while wrapping an arm around my waist, I smirked looking down at his now wet clothes. “Sorry.” I blushed pulling away from him.
  

  He smiled down at the big wet stain on his shirt and then looked up at me his eyes glinting mischievously. “I’ll remember this, expect revenge.” He winked.
  

  I gaped at him and he smiled innocently. “I said I was sorry, does that not help?” I pouted slightly.
   

“Nope, sorry doesn’t dry my clothes now does it?” He laughed.
  

  “Please.” I whined and he just shook his head. “Fine.” I told him turning on my heel and going inside. Once I was in my room a smile spread across my face, I couldn’t help it. He was just too perfect for his own good. I quickly changed and brushed my damp hair before throwing open the door.  

A pounding noise was coming from the basement telling me band practice has started. I sighed and ran down the stairs, jumping over the last step in my excitement and almost ran into Harry. “whoah there RaRa.” He steadied me and I smiled.
   

“Sorry.” I told him looking over to where Grace and Logan were. “What are you doing?” I asked and they looked up smiling crazily.
  

  “Nothing.” They said at the same time and I shook my head, whatever it is I don’t want to know.
  

  “Do you want to watch the band? I heard there’s a new song.” Grace commented changing the subject.
   

I shrugged, “Sure.” I said calmly even though I was jumping up and down with excitement inside my head, I didn’t want to be too desperate.
   

“Okay.” She squealed pulling on my hand leading me to the basement. Once in the basement I wasn’t surprised to see a bunch of girls that usually tagged along to each practice sitting on the couches. They were kind of annoying but I was used to it, so I didn’t really  mind. But what surprised me was that there were so many girls this time, probably because Annabelle and Asher broke up. That made me pissed, I really liked him and now all these whores were going to get in the way of that. I mean we’ve been talking more and not to forget the kiss, I can’t forget it,  really that’s the only thing I think about whenever I see him. I sighed in annoyance at all the girls until my eyes landed on a platinum blond. Kasey. I didn’t stand a chance.
  

  Asher was strumming on the makeshift stage my brother built, tuning his guitar while Hunter, and Levi were playing around on their guitars. Chris was flirting with a girl as he leaned up against his drum set and Ryder was setting up his keyboard.
   

“Okay ready?” I heard Asher ask the band and they all nodded. “great.” he smiled and my heart fluttered when his eyes met mine.
  

  Once the song started he tore his eyes away from me and focused on all the girls who were clapping along with the song. I saw his face turning red as a blush crept to his face, it would have been cute if he wasn’t looking at Kasey at the time. I rolled my eyes in annoyance and pushed myself away from the crowded girls making my way up the stairs.
  

  “Where are you going?” Grace grabbed my arm shouting over the music.
   

“To check on Danny.” I told her and she nodded letting me go just as the song came to an end.
   

“Will you be back?” She asked staring at me wide eyed, in panic, “I don’t want to be along with all these girls and Logan.”

I smiled but shook my head, “I don’t know, maybe. It depends what Danny’s doing.”

“Okay, but hurry I’m nervous.” She told me going back to Logan. I looked over at the band and not one of them noticed me leave as they started another song. Asher’s eyes locked with Kasey’s.

I ran up the stairs quickly to get away from him, I couldn’t stand seeing him loving someone else. It wasn’t what I wanted.  I opened Danny’s door to his room and smiled as I saw him, Eli, and Beth tackling Harry. I walked over and stood over them smirking at Harry looked up at me. “having fun?”

“Loads.” he smirked, “Get her!” he shouted and the three children that were once on top of Harry were now pushing me to the ground. Harry also joined in and was the first one on top of me. I groaned as he pressed me harder into the hardwood floor as the kids climbed on top of us.

“Stop! It hurts!” I shouted making them laugh, glad to know my pain is amusing to them. Even though Harry laughed he pushed himself off me so he was hovering over me doing a push up. He’s so strong! He didn’t even seemed to notice that there were three kids on his back! Oh God. I looked at his strong arms that were on either side of me and my mouth hung open in shock, how did I not notice this before, they’re huge!

“Like ‘em?” He smirked. A blush crept up my face and I nodded nervously making him laugh. “good to know.”

“Shut up.” I laughed rolling my eyes. Even though his arms were big and strong, I preferred Asher’s.
