After going to practice with my brother, I met the rest of the boys in the band and watched them play.

I couldn't keep my eyes off Alex.

He was glorious. His voice was amazing, and he made these certain facial expressions when he sang, I knew I liked him.

From that day forward I went to every practice.

Every day after school I'd wait for Nick and Alex, and we'd go to practice with Matt and Jaime.

There was nothing that would keep me away from seeing him everyday.

The only thing that really bothered me was that he never really talked to me. I was just kind of space.

~3 Years Later~

I'm now 17 and Nick is 21.

As well as Alex. With age he's just become better looking.

Today I get picked up by Nick and Alex, so I can go to practice with them, like I have been every time for the past 3 years.

I wait anxiously. I can hardly stand the thought of Alex , without blushing or smiling.

Soon, I see Nick's car pull up, and he honks.

I run over, my now waist length brown hair bouncing with every jump.

I climb in the back seat, anticipating Nick and Alex to be in front, but this time, Nick is in the drivers, with a girl in the front seat. He rests his palm on her thigh and a smoke dangles from his mouth cooly.

I was so confused that I hadn't noticed Alex, sitting in the back next to me.

"Hey Pip." My brother looks back and smiles. He always has called me pip. Cause he's rather tall and I'm short compared to him.

"Hey... Who's this?" I ask eyeing the girl.

"This 'ere is my girl, Jane."

"Hi." She says shortly before turning back to my brother.

"Right... Uh... Nick? Since when did you smoke?" I ask.

"Since always, I just didn't smoke around you or mum and dad." He says.

"She's gonna be sore at you." I say.

"Not if she doesn't find out." He says annoyed, and gives me a glare.

I press my back into my seat and look at my lap.

Never has Nick acted like this...

"Calm down mate." Alex says.

I quickly look at him.

"Sorry." He mutters and begins to drive.

I turn to Alex and nod, since he is staring at me.

"Hey." I say

"Hi." He smiles.

"Uhm... How're you?" I ask.

"I'm good." He laughs.

"How're you?" He asks.

"Alright." I respond with a shy smile.

He nods and we both look out the window.

As we arrive at Alex's house for practice, I see the boys sitting on the curb infront of his house, as we pull up they all stand and wave at us.

When we all get out, all the guys greet me with a hug.

Nick slings his arm suggestively around the girls waist.

I furrow my eyebrows at them.

Then Nick clears his throat.

"Guys, I've got some news!" He shouts.

"What is it mate?" All the guys ask.

"Me and my girl here have got a flat together, I'm moving with her down town." He says.

All the guys cheer and congratulate him, but I stand,  behind them all, with a horrid expression.

"No!" I shout .

Everyone goes silent and looks at me, and Nick glares.

"Nick! You can't do this!" I scream.

"What do ya mean I can't?! Im 21!" He shouts.

"No! You can't abandon me like this!" I shout.

"Well grow up or bug off! I'm done taking care of you!" He shouts.

My eyes begin to water and I grow embarrassed. I can't let anyone see me cry, so I turn on my heels and run all the way home.
