bailey pov:

I woke up to not my normal kind of day, my normal day of awakening from my humble dream world would include being jumped on and suffocated by my twin brother Zach but today was different. I was awoken by shouting coming from my kitchen which was odd because usually my house is very peaceful and if there was shouting it was me and Zach of course. 

 I slowly get up from my comfy queen sized bed and headed towards my bedroom door, "i don't care he is my son too!!! and what about bailey she needs you as well Greg!" i heard my mom shout "Lisa don't you think i know that i love my kids and this is a big deal for my boy!" my dad shouted back ,okayyy so Zach was the issue like always, i turned back and jumped on my bed, opened my mac book and decided to watch some Shane Dawson to cover the shouts. 

A few moments later, while i was watching Shane trying girl products and nearly pissing myself, Zach barges into my room. "ever heard of knocking rosy?" i said while still watching Shane, not taking notice of my annoying brother. Before i know it Zach is closing my laptop i look up to see and frown on his face "guess you havent heard then?" he mumbles sitting down and looking at me "what mom and dad shouting over you well duh, rosy yeah i have you happy about it?" i roll my eyes expecting Zach to reply or make a dumb remark but what happened next shocked me, Zach started to sob and turn even redder "woah hey Zachy your kinda freaking me out now whats going on?" i say looking concerned while moving closer to him, "i'm leaving bai... i'm going to L.A with d-dad" he explained, i gulped feeling pressure in my air ways and my eyes filling with tears, "w-when?" i stutter Zach looks at me with watery eyes "tonight". 

~present day~

I woke up to my alarm,oh great another day of my boring life, i groaned and slipped out of bed going to get ready for the day. After showering and doing some light makeup, i put on my black ripped jeans and my roughly cropped Nasa t-shirt pairing it with my classic black docs, then heading downstairs for breakfast. 

I walked into my kitchen to see my mother placing pancakes on two plates and my 15 year old brother, Ryan playing on his Nintendo switch. I took a seat at the kitchen island grabbing my moms attention "hey honey, good morning" she says placing a stack of pancakes in front of me, i smiled back at her "morning mom" i said turning to my younger brother ,raising an eyebrow "anti-social per usual ryan?" i questioned, he looked up and smirked "ah you know me bai always trying to get those high scores on fortnite" he giggles me and mom join in. 

Mom sat down as i began to eat my pancakes "hey bailey.... i spoke to your father" she said slightly nervous, oh great i thought "and?" i asked, all eyes were now on her including ryan's "well all is good and your father and zach are fine, the band is doin-" i cut her off "mom get to the point" i said knowing she was stalling "honey your brother and the band are taking a break" she huffed. I was confused why was she telling me this like i would care she knows how i feel "and the boys and your father are coming back...for a little" she slighty mumbled, my mouth hung open as did ryans i quickly closed it grabbing my phone and bag "oh jeepers nartz is that the time i should get to school" i exclaimed jumping up ruffling my brothers hair and waving my mother off "bye" i shouted heading towards the door "honey wait!" i heard but quickly exited the house and made my way to school. I've never left that house so quick, what the heck is happening? My twin brother is coming back?

I arrived at school, earlier than usual,  I looked around like a lost puppy trying to find my best friend as if on key she ran up to me, holding two starbucks cups practically throwing mine at me. She sipped her coffee "pinkity drinkity for my bai-bai" she cheerfully smiled. This would be charlotte, my crazy-coffee-addicted bestie, i met her after zach left coincidentally at starbucks and ever since he left she's the only one who's been there for me, we tell eachother everything. As we walked to homeroom i decided, after contemplating it for a while, to tell her about Zach "my brother's coming home" i blurted out she almost spat her coffee out "your brother? as in zach? thee zach herron?" she exclaimed, oh one thing i forgot to mention she loves my brothers band. I nodded slowly, she squealed then calmed down "im sorry bai i know how you must be feeling and im here for you......but when is he coming?!" she said comfortingly until her inner fan girl demon came out again i laughed then frowned realising i had no clue when.
