chapter one:
"you're just a kid"

⋆*・゚:⋆*・゚:⠀ *⋆.*:・゚ .: ⋆*・゚: .⋆

"hey! hey! dude!"

"okay we're rolling" I breath out,
we're filming yet another video for tucks stinking youtube account or whatever he does

right now we're interviewing munch, my older brother by like a 5 minutes and 47 seconds

you see, me and munch are twins and are best friends with mr.videocamera guy over there, along with our other friend alex

"before you go, lo-look at m-my coat, it's pretty cool huh?" my brother mentions

I lightly laugh, that's one of the most ugliest things I've ever seen, it's two sizes too big for him and an ugly brown shade

"what is that?" tuck asked annoyed.

"can we do another take with it on though?"

"no!" me and tuck say in unison, clearly annoyed at how long it takes for munch to focus

munch cleared his throat as our seriousness "ready when you are."

"okay how do I smell."
munch asked, smelling his armpits

Im pretty sure he's just nervous

"-or I mean, look, or you know? yeah, you can't smell a video."

I see ruckus; tucks dog, come from around the corner, "come here ruckus!" i call while munch yells at him for being in the shot.

"hi, I'm reginald. I don't really get friends much, well besides ashley."

I poke my head in the shot and let out a "hey."

"but it's probably because I'm a bit of... an acquired taste. that's what my mom says."
I snicker in the corner and munch gives me a glare, but continues

"and I'm sure whatever school me and ashley are forced to go, no one will, acquire it, so thanks for paving a road over really, the only place I've ever had real friends."
he says in a sad tone

as the air gets thick, I go over to him knowing right now is not the time to mess around and gave my big brother a hug, and sigh knowing it's my turn to be interviewed

⋆*・゚:⋆*・゚:⠀ *⋆.*:・゚ .: ⋆*・゚: .⋆

"okay we're rolling!" tuck says.

I sigh then put on a smile and say,

"hi! I'm ashley, but you guys probably already knew that. but I'm saying it just to be sure- um okay, I'm not that happy about moving and I'm saying that because that seems to be the topic right now but um" i struggle to find what i want to say

"I'm pretty sure me and munch will be fine where ever we move, of course I've never gone a day with seeing these guys. they're like the only people in the world that get me. and now it's just all over, you know? where ever me and munch are going look, you people listen to me, his own sister, he's- he's a really good kid, so don't just assume that he's weird and that's it." i pause, fiddling with my fingers

"Alex, he's a foster kid, he's been moved all over. and tuck don't just be like he's a camera geek and that's him.. cause they are both way more then that, they are there for you when you need them and will always be. I mean, it's like, why do you have to build a freeway right through? you know, can't you just go around or something? you're going along feeling like your own person with your own friends, and then something like this comes along, that you have no power to stop, because you're just a kid."

I scoff,
"you're just a kid."

later that day

right now we are interviewing alex and I'm helping tuck set up the camera.

"do I have to do this?" alex complained

"yes! I'm not just setting up this camera for nothing! I'm not even getting paid. do you know how hard it is just to get it to stand!" I exclaim

he gives me a playful glare and I give one back, rolling my eyes

"just do what I say" tuck says, ignoring us

"uh okay, say your name" he says.

"I thought you knew my name." alex retorted.

I sighed, this is going to take way longer then it has be

"you know what I mean it's for the video!"

"dude we've been hanging out for years! even ashley said it, why do we have to say our names when they probably already know them!"

"well maybe if we have some newcomers!" I say sarcastically say, waving my arms in the air as to greet them

"you say it like people actually watch these things" alex retorts

"c'mon guys, just- dude stop fronting. just tell the camera. you're upset right? you don't want to move."

alex's face drop and he sighs, turning around to face the railing. I silently get up from my chair and see what's wrong.

I stand next to him and put my head on his shoulder and I swear I saw a small tear wanting to escape his eyes

I whisper under my breath just enough for him to hear, "it's gonna be okay"

but both of us knew at that moment i had know why of knowing that for sure
