Falling// Jack Avery

4

You walked down the stairs and you find all the boys dressed in their outfits for the photoshoot. They hear you coming down so they all look up.
"Hey guys you ready to go, I have all my stuff."
"Yep lets gooooo" says corbyn as he runs out of the door like a little kid
Yall got and Uber there but it wasn't very big so you had to ride between Daniel and Jack. They acted like idiots the whole time. At one point they started okay fighting and they were hitting you more than they were hitting each other.
"How much longer are y'all be doing this because I'm dying right now" you say annoyed
"Oh sorry Maddie I forgot you were there" Daniel says
"My bad Maddie, I didn't mean to hit you it's just Daniel kept hitting me so I had to hit him back" he says and pats your shoulder
"Are you blaming me?!" Daniel says to jack
"Sure am bro?!" Jack says back
"Oml shutupppppp" you say over both of them
They both stopped and looked like two little boys that just got in trouble by their mom and it was hilarious and jack honestly looked really cute like that. Y'all arrived to the place finally so y'all all got out of the car and walked to where you were taking pictures at. It was a beautiful mountain/hill and it had all sorts of photo props and it was perfect.
"Ok who's up first" you say as you start getting your stuff ready. They start getting louder as they discuss who's gonna go first for what feels like forever. After you finish getting your stuff you stop them.
"Okay guys have y'all come to a decision yet or am I gonna have to make it for yall"
"I'm gonna go first" Zach says
You take pictures of the boys and it was funny because some pictures were professional and others were funny. You finish taking pictures for all the boys except for Jack because he wanted to go to a special place not too far from where y'all were. All the boys were tired and hungry.
"Ok guys let's walk up this hill to Jacks area" you say as you start getting your stuff.
"But I'm tireddd" Jonah whines
"Me too I don't wanna get up, I wanna go home and eat" Daniel says
"Why can't we just stay down here" Corbyn asks
"I can't let my sister go into a forest alone with a guy" Zach says
"You think I'm gonna do something? We're just taking pictures and y'all are being lazy. Y'all asked for this" you say
"Fine we'll stay down here but if y'all take too long I'm coming to find y'all" Zach says as he sits down
"Alrighty let's go" jack says helping you grab some of your equipment and walking to the place you're taking pictures at. You finally get there after about five minutes and it was the most beautiful area you've ever seen. It had pretty trees and flowers and a bridge that crossed a small stream. It was amazing and you must have been gawking because jacks starts laughing at you.
"What are you laughing at"you say while still looking around.
"You. You look like a kid when they walk into Disney world for the first time"
"Well how can I not. This place is beautiful, why did the other boys not want to take pictures here??"
"They don't know about it. I was just exploring places one day and I found this, by the end of the shoots they're always too tired to walk up here"
"Wow" you say finally looking at jack who was already looking at you and smiling
"We should..get started or Zach will come up here" you say as you start setting up your stuff
"He's too lazy to come up here"
"But since his sister is up here with a guy, I think he'll do it" you say
"Why is he so overprotective, y'all are literally the same age"
"I don't really know, it's really annoying but I'm used to it"
"He needs to let you be free sometimes, you're your own person"
"Tell him that" you say and kinda laugh at the thought
"You need to tell him that, stand up for yourself"
"It's not that easy, but I wish it was" you say and sigh
"Next time he bosses you tell him, I'll back you up if I'm there" he says and grins
"Alright, I might" you say and smile back
Y'all took some pictures and they were really cool. Jack decided to take a few pictures of you on his phone because his camera was pretty good and you could still edit them later. You finished up and texted Zach that y'all were done and packing up. Jack was helping you. You reached for a lense at the same time jack did and his hand landed on top of yours.
"Oh..umm...my bad I was just gonna grab..it" he says looking at you while stuttering
"Oh..yeah..yeah..I'm sorry" you say while also stuttering
He takes his hand off the lense and you grab it and put it in the bag. It was pretty quiet after that. Y'all walked back to the boys and then got into the Uber.
"So how did the pictures turn out, Maddie" Daniel says but you were thinking about you and jacks moment so you didn't hear him
"Umm hello earth to Maddie" Daniel say waving his hand in front of your face
"What" you say now focusing on him
"How did the pictures turn out" Jonah says this time
"Oh um..They're good, I just need to edit some" you say still out of it
"What're you thinking about that's making you unable to focus?" Corbyn asks
"Did something happen when you and Jack took pictures?!?" Zach says quickly
"No we just took pictures and you need to calm down" you say to Zach
"I'm just trying to look out for my little sister, is there something wrong with that?"
"Zach, for the last time, we're twins so you're not older than me and I'm old enough to make my own decisions" you say
"You've never been on you're own, you can't just randomly decide you want to make your own decisions" Zach says getting louder
"I've never been able to make my own decisions because you never let me" you say and everyone else is just silent. Zach just stops talking and didn't talk for the rest of the ride along with everyone else.
When you got back you went straight to the back yard and got on your phone. Corbyn started playing fortnite and Jonah,Daniel, and Jack were watching him and Zach was just on his phone.
"Are you gonna go check on Maddie?" Jack asked Zach
"She made it clear she doesn't need me to check on her"
"Well aren't you going to apologize for being a little over dramatic in the car?"
"Nope, I don't feel like talking to her right now" Zach says still looking at his phone
"Well I'll go check on her" jack says as he starts to get up and walk to the backdoor
Jack walks out and all the boys look at Zach wondering why he didn't stop Jack. They all had kinda figured out something was going on between you two. You were just sitting on the couch outside and scrolling through Instagram and then you heard the backdoor open.
