chapter one!
































Charlotte

My eyes opened abruptly as a heard the front door of my apartment slam shut. there is only one person on this earth that has a key to my apartment besides madison and that's my brother drew.

i was on the brink of sleep when someone yells "get your lazy ass out of bed and put on some clothes that aren't 3 days old loser! we're going out tonight!" i look up to see drew staring down at me. "two questions my lovely brother. one, it's 6:30 in the morning you could've let me sleep in. and two, why?"

"because one you need sunlight you look pretty pale- where did your tan go you look like something the ghostbusters need to catch?" drew popped off. i immediately threw the pillow right back at him as hard as i could.

drew may be a great brother sometimes but he's also an annoying asshole who thinks clifford the big red dog is a spawn of satan because he's red. but i love him and life would be literal garbage without him.

right now he's in the middle of filming a show called outer banks, and it's probably the best thing for me and him right now. he has so many good friends now and I'm so happy for him. many of them have become my own friends, although i still haven't met that rudy guy. and it also got me out of the lovely state of north carolina that holds some pretty bad memories.

anyways, i just got out of a bad breakup and i haven't been doing well. i've just been in over my head and watching every spider man movie since tobey maguires first one. i finish far from home and the cycle just starts all over again.

"charlie, just come to set with me, have a little bit of fun and realize how much tanner chase is than you, and then we'll all go out and have some fun tonight. with everyone." that actually didn't sound too bad, and for once in my life, i actually feel like getting out of bed.

"okay but if chase hits me in the face with a water bottle again im never coming back!"

i didn't try to hard to impress as i just put on a graphic tee, tucked into some 90s boyfriend jeans, and some white birkenstocks. practically my everyday outfit when I'm in public. while i was brushing my teeth i dropped toothpaste on my shirt because drew decided to scare me in the bathroom. let's just say it didn't end up well for either of us.

i go into my room and change into a different tee, and put my greasy hair in a ponytail.

i walk into the kitchen just to see austin and drew arguing again. "look i don't understand why you like apple jacks so much, they are just the dollar store version of froot loops!"

if austin ever stopped eating froot loops i genuinely think he would never eat another bowl cereal ever again.

"drew no one cares about your apple jacks obsession now let's go, we have like 20 minuets to get there on time!" i grabbed my purse and and a granola bar i'm pretty sure expired but it's whatever.

"texas, do you have any kombucha?" i asked austin as we walked to the parking garage. "of course, how could i forget? you are the only reason i buy the 24 pack at the store!" i smiled and we eventually got to drews car.

we got in and austin handed me a bottle of kombucha. "thank you very much texas!" i messed up his hair and threw him the granola bar realizing it was definitely expired and austin is such an oblivious child he won't even realize it.

"oh you brought me food what a lady!" drew looked at me through the review mirror and scrunched his nose. austin took a bite and immediately spit it out into his hands.

"that was the most disgusting thing i have ever eaten, and u would not believe what the sample lady at whole foods has made me eat!" austin took a huge drink of water and then wiped his tongue with a napkin like that was going to do anything.

"that sounds like a very personal problem austin!" i responded while in the process of flicking the back of his neck.

"show a little empathy you cold hearted woman!" he popped back. "my heart actually feels pretty warm right now." i said putting my hand over my own heart. drew sat there laughing as we pulled up to a red light and i saw the set a couple miles away as it was kind of hard to miss.

maybe this day won't be so bad after all.
