Brooklyn's point of view
"Ashton?" I asked and he looked up from his phone. "Can I go Amelia's house today?" I asked and he bit his bottom lip.
"Uh, I don't know. I don't know her or her parents." He told me and I nodded. "Maybe, if her parents let her, she can come by here for a bit. I doubt they'd let her because they don't know us though."
"I'll ask." I said and he nodded. I walked out of his room and then pulled my phone out. I texted her that if she wanted she could come by here and then she asked for the address.
"They said she can." I called out, assuming she can because she asked for the address, and he told me to keep my door open if Nate is dropping by as well. I rolled my eyes and then laughed.
I gave her the address and she told me she'd be here in twenty minutes. I went up to my room and then quickly changed out of my sweats and t-shirt.
I grabbed a maroon sweatshirt and then I pulled on a pair of ripped black high-waisted shorts. I laced a pair of heeled combat boots on and then I brushed my hair out.
I grabbed a black flowercrown head band and then I put it on, making sure to hide the elastic string behind all of my hair.
I skipped the make-up and then I walked downstairs as I shoved my phone into my pocket. "You look nice, what's going on?" Michael asked me.
"My friend is coming over." I said and he nodded. I sat down beside him and then I looked at him. "Why do we match?" I asked and he looked down at his maroon sweatshirt, black skinny jeans, and combat boots.
"Because great minds think alike." He said and I laughed. "Plus, maroon and black go so perfectly together." He told me and I agreed.
The doorbell rang and I practically jumped out of my seat. I went to the door and then opened it, seeing my friend with bright pink hair.
"Why, don't you look bright." I said, motioning to her all black clothes and her black skateboard. She bared her teeth at me and then we both laughed. "Come in."
She walked in and then I closed my door. "Uh, Michael is in the living room, Ashton is in his room, and the other two are out doing god knows what."
"It's cool. I wasn't planning on hanging out with the band though." She told me and I nodded. "I have to say, I quite like when you're dressed dark like that. It really suits you."
"Thanks I guess." I said and she nodded. "Come on, I'll take you my room." I said and Michael looked at us.
"Hey." Amelia said, saluting the boy on the couch. "You're Michael?"
"Yep." He said and nodded. "You're Amelia? The drummer with pink hair?" He asked and she chuckled.
"Born and raised." She said and nodded. "You told them about me, how cute Brookey." She said and pinched my cheeks.
"Hands off the royal goods, only authorized personnel can touch." I said and pushed her hand off of my cheek.
"I could never be authorized, I hate playing by the rules." She said and I nodded as I rubbed my cheek. "So, Michael, I like the outfit."
"Thanks, your's is pretty badass too." He said and she thanked him. "Don't you have a twin? Nate?"
"Oh yeah, Nathaniel. He's with some other friends right now." She lied and he nodded. "Guys gotta hang out with other guys, he told me."
"Well, you two go up to Brooklyn's room. Go have fun and do whatever girls do." He said and we nodded. I took her up to my room and then I closed the door
"It's so pink." She said and I nodded. "Nate would rather die than be seen in a room like this." She told me and I laughed as she set her skateboard down.
"Well Mr. Black Boots And Skinny Jeans is going to come in here one day." I said as I sat down on my bed and she told me that it was inevitable.
"Do you have more dark clothes like that or do you only have that one outfit?" She asked and I asked her why. "Because one, we're the same size and two, I'm trying to make sense as to why you don't wear things like that to school."
"One, borrow whatever you want as long as I get it back. Two, I'm just more comfortable in bright clothes." I said and pushed my flower crown up.
"The perks of being adopted by that band; they're rich, they're hot, and they are practically kids themselves." She hummed and I agreed.
"It's kind of weird to say that they're attractive now... two of them are legally my dads..." I said and she laughed.
"Legally but not by blood so it isn't that weird." She said and turned around. "You actually own leather? Well damn, I didn't think you'd have it."
"I don't have many, a few black ones, some pink ones, and a white one." I told her and she nodded as she grabbed a black one.
"On Monday you should wear the pink one." She told me and I nodded. "Me, you, and Nate can be in leather." She said and I laughed.
"Should I be in all black?"
"Nah, do pink and black. I'll do red and black and Nate can wear black and white." She said and I nodded. "I know you love your pink."
"I do." I said and she ran a hand through her hair. "How long is Saturday school?" I asked and she laughed as she told me.
"I've gotten it a few times for falling asleep in class. Nate gets it for skipping." She said and I nodded. "You've never gotten it, have you?"
"No." I said and fidgeted in my seat. "I don't get in trouble. I'm almost always the teacher's favorite." I told her as she chuckled.
"I used to be but then what happened was I realized I was doing everything for everyone but myself." She said and I nodded. "So, that paper in music, do you know who you're putting?"
"The one about who inspired us to start playing?" She nodded and then sat down on the chair by my desk. "Kind of, do you?"
"I'm writing about Mike Fuentes, Rian Dawson, Ashton Irwin, and my personal love for the drums." She said and I nodded. "What do you mean by kind of?"
"I just have Niall Horan and well Michael." I said and she nodded. "Besides, playing guitar just seems so fun and like a stress relief."
"Nate says it is." She told me. "The drums are aswell. When you're frustrated, just bang on them for a little while. You'll break some drumsticks but they're not that expensive so it doesn't matter."
"Ashton probably does that." I said and she laughed. "He could probably teach you a bit too."
"Nah, it's cool." She said and shook her head. "I want to learn by myself." She told me and I nodded.
She pulled her phone out and then chuckled. "Nate's bored." She said and tossed her phone on my bed. "I'm not dealing with him."
"And the world's best sister award goes to!" I announced as I motioned to her. She laughed and then rolled her eyes.
"You're an idiot." She said and I nodded. "Why are we friends?"
"I don't know? Because I'm pretty awesome and I'm adorable." I said and she laughed. "Also because I had the guts to talk to you." I said and she nodded.
"Not many people do. I guess it's weird to talk to the girl dressed in all black with pink hair." She said and I rolled my eyes.
"People are just intimidated by you." I said and she chuckled. "If you want to be, you're pretty scary." I told her honestly.
"I kind of really hate people so I guess that's good." She told me and I nodded. "Some people just get on my nerves like oh my god you ignorant fuck." She said. "No one cares that you messed up your toe nail polish while texting your seventh boyfriend this month."
I laughed and she chuckled a bit. "There are girls like that. Me and Nate were sitting at our table talking and this girl started talking about how lonely she is because for the fourth time in a month a boy left her."
"Do I feel bad or do I laugh? Obviously you're doing something wrong if a boy leaves you for the fourth time." I said and she shrugged.
"I laugh at everything so I don't know." She told me and I nodded. "One time Nate hit his toe on the side of a wall and tripped on his shoe, I laughed instead of helping him up."
"I'd laugh too." I said and chuckled. "It'd be hilarious to see." I told her and she nodded.
"Hey, we should go yo the mall sometime." She said and I nodded. "Me and you, Nate if he's actually willing too."
"Does he not like shopping?"
"Unless we go to Hot Topic for a solid hour or two so he can buy clothes, it is not happening." She said and I nodded. "He does his shopping online. He doesn't like being around people, most are really fucking annoying."
"True." I said and she nodded. "We should though. Maybe you can help me find clothes that are more like this." I said and she looked ant my outfit.
"Honey, it's not that hard." She said. "Black, black, and more black with a small dash of color." She said and I rolled my eyes.
"Who are you? Luke?"
"Nope, I'm Amelia." She said and I huffed. "Anyways, it won't be hard to help you. However, if we get it, you'll have to wear it at school." She said and I nodded.
"I don't have a problem with that." I said and she nodded. "Oh! I need your help." I said and she hummed.
"For what?"
"You see the guys are in a band-"
"No shit."
"And they're taking me to some award show with them. I need help finding an outfit that is me but mixed with what the guys wear." I said and she nodded.
"A pop-punk princess." She said and I smiled brightly. "Well, let's see what I can do ma'lady." She told me and stood up.
"I have a lot of dresses but I don't know which one to wear." I said and she nodded as she walked into my closet, looking through it. "I was thinking pink and black."
"That is fucking perfect Brooklyn. Pink and black." She said and I giggled. "I think this will look nice but you need to try it on first."
"What?" I asked as she came out with that pink dress Calum bought me and a black leather jacket. "Oh." I said and she handed it to me.
"Now, you have more shoes than I have detentions and this is going to be hard." She said and sat down on the floor as I laid the outfit out nicely on my bed.
"Black or pink." She hummed as she looked through my heels. "Black." She said and then handed me a pair of black heels.
"Is this it?"
"Not at all." She said and then reached behind her neck. She's unbuckled the black leather choker necklace and then went up to me.
"What-"
"Just put it on." I took it from her hands and then I put it on. "Where's your hair accessories?" She asked and I pointed to a drawer on my desk. She nodded and I looked in the mirror.
"You have a crown?"
"It's a tiara and it was originally a joke." I said and she nodded. "It's all scraped and messed up though. I might get a new one."
"It will look perfect with that outfit." She said and tossed it on my bed. "You can borrow that heart chocker. I have two of them." She said and I nodded.
"I feel like I'm going to look so badass."
"Of course you are my child, I fixed your outfit."
