Prolude...

Ring...Ring...Ring...

The purple bedazzled iphone rung, vibrating on the Oakwood dresser alerting the owner of said phone, of an incoming call. The phone went unanswered and son the phone ceased ringing and a message was left. The dresser sat against the wall of a very large room. A vanity station was right next to the dresser, pictures of different people taped along the rim of the mirror. Make up and a line of beauty products lined the desk space. Directly linear to the vanity station was the king size bed, equipped with a canopy lined with thin red curtains. The surrounding walls were painted a light red, and were lined with various posters of different rock bands. In one of the corners were three guitars resting on stands.

On the outer right of the three was a classic acoustic guitar, with scribbles all along the face. It looked old, and very much used. The scribbles, upon closer inspection, were actually different autographs. Among them being Nickleback, Neon Lights, Linking Park, and Simple plan. In the middle was a full on neon purple, and dark red electric guitar, with all kinds of faded out stickers pasted on the face and back of the neck. It too was autographed, by both Avenge7fold and Dragonforce during a joint concert by them. The last was a bass guitar, and though it wasn't autographed it was just as worn out and obviously played just as often as the other two.

Along the walls there was only one framed picture which wasn't a picture at all. It was a framed ticket stub of a concert, but not just any concert. It was the first concert that the occupant of the room has ever been too. It was obviously special enough to get a framed on her wall. Other than that picture, and the posters, the walls had shelves nailed to them with all kinds of knick knacks, stuffed animals and two piggy banks; one of them being a Gir piggy bank, and the other was a clock that actually worked. The cool thing about it was that the face of the clock was clear, so she was able to see how filled and what she had in there just in case she needed to make an emergency withdrawal.

A skateboard lay in the middle of the room, dismantled with parts and tools around it. On the bed lay a set of cloths. There were three doors in the room. One obviously lead out to the hall, and out of the room. The second, being a closet, and the third one possibly led to a joining bathroom, which was just opened allowing steam, and a towel cladded female to exit.

"Ahhhh~! That felt great." She exclaimed stretching one arm over her head and using the other to keep her towel from falling. She walked over to the bed taking care to step over her dismantled board. She dropped her towel in favor for the outfit lying on her bed. It was a off the right shoulder, light blue t-shirt. There was a picture of a toster with a smile on its face on her stomach. In the toaster picture there was waffles in the slots with steam coming off of it. There was also a thought bubble that said "I nom on waffles!" The pants were form fitting, but still movable, black skinny jeans that was covered with all sorts of drawings that were obviously done with sharpie markers. On her left thigh was an unfinished drawing of Gir, made to look as if he was hugging her thigh. She was hoping it would get finished today. Her belt was simple black, with purple gems on them. They of course, weren't real but it made the outfit pop.

"Oh great, I missed their call." She sighed looking at the missed calls on her phone. "They're probably on their way here, if not already outside."

With that in mind she slipped her iphone into her back pocket, pulled her purple streaked, black hair into a pony tail and headed downstairs. She passed by a couple of maids and butlers saying "Good morning", or "Take it easy". The maids and butlers there were treated very well. Most of the time there wasn't anyone in the house and while the place was large it was rarely messed up. There was even a whole floor just for them if they needed to stay over, or just relax. They were even allowed to eat whatever they wanted as long as they went out to the store and brought whatever was eaten. Some of them even had kids that were brought over and put in a play room just for them. Everyone knew each other by name, and for the most part was a very relaxing household.

She made it to the kitchen, grabbing an apple while in there, before going to the front door where her red and purple converse were. She reached for the blue purse on the hooks where there were 3 car keys hanging, and was about to head outside when there was a light 'beep' to her left.

On her left was a small monitor and right next to it a red button and a speaker right underneath it. The screen had the words 'Incoming call', so she pressed the red button. The once dark screen turned on and the head of a person showed up. He had dark wavy, short hair on his head that was starting to show gray hairs which made him look even better. Well some people thought so anyway. He was already a handsome man, with strong features, small yet very penetrating dark eyes and equally small lips, which were set in a smile.

"Ohayo, dear."

"Sup, dad. You at the lab already? Did you even come home last night?" The girl ask, an amused smirk on her face. The girl and the man looked so alike it was scary. A lot of people have told them that if she was a male than her father would be it, and vice versa. Everything was the same, except for the lips and body which were given to her by her mother.

Her dad gave a sheepish smile, the bags under his eyes very noticeable. "No I didn't. They've got me working day and night on this thing. Hopefully we can get something done today and I can get some rest. You heading out?" He must have noticed her clothes. While she was only able to see her head, the camera on the video monitor cave a full body shot.

"Yep, with my friends and Erick."

"Hmm...Erick."

She rolled her eyes, "Come on Otou. We've been together for like a year now. Are you saying you still don't like him?" Before his answer a car horn went off and the girl smiled, "Well thats them. See you later dad. I'll stop by during your lunch hour and bring your favorite. Ashiteru, Otou."

"Ashiteru."

She smiled and hung up the video call. The next second she was out of the house, running through the court yard, the stone mermaid fountain, and up to the gates which opened once she got up there. Their house couldn't really be called a house, considering it had four stories when including the basement which was transformed into a laboratory for when her father actually does come home. They owned about 35 acres of lands, which was mostly wide open space, but also had a pool house, greenhouse and a miniature ranch with three horses that were ridden either by the daughter or the help's kids.

The house itself was painted a beautiful white, with spiral columns which held up the porch roof. The shutters were a maroon brown, don't ask why they were painted that color. It was one of her father's "brilliant" ideas. In front of the mansion was a beautiful courtyard, and in the center was a mermaid fountain. It was mother's favorite part of the house when she was...

The young girl shook her head, attempted to remove the thoughts of her mother. She didn't need to travel down that road again. A loud, obnoxious sounding car horn pulled a smile to the girls face. She ran over to the property's gate, showed her ID to the card scanner and walked over to the red convertible. "Morning dudes, and dudettes!" She exclaimed to the three people in the car.

The driver of the car was black, shaggy haired male, with equally dark shades on hiding his beautiful blue eyes. He wore a jock jacket over a white t-shirt, accompanied by some blue jeans and some white Air Jordans. He grinned at the girl, nudging his head towards the empty passenger seat, "Made sure no one took your spot." His name was Erick Willenski, a 19 year old senior at high school. You may be wondering why he's still in school. Well, it wasn't because he stayed back. It was simply that he started school a year later than everyone else.

"Yeah, he friggen punched me in the arm because I sat there!" Another boy, obviously younger but bared a resemblance to the older male, said rubbing his right arm[1]. He also had black hair, and was just as shaggy looking as his brothers, but he was able to pull it off as well. He had bright, sea blue eyes that you could easily stair at for hours, but if that wasn't enough his cute baby face and dazzling smile would have you going gaga for this boy. He wore a red t-shirt that said 'If you're not me, then it sucks to be you' in dark letters. He wore dark jeans, with a purple belt and fishnet, fingerless gloves he no doubt got from hot topic. His kicks were black converse with purple lining. This was Triston Willenski, a 17 year old junior and Erick's younger brother. He also started school a year later than most kids.

"It was your own fault. You know my girl always sit up there." This time it was the only girl in the car. She had honey, golden hair that fell in waves down to her middle back. Her eyes were green, and with the dark eyeliner she wore, they stood out even more so. Her clothes consisted of a light blue spaghetti strap shirt, and some jean booty shorts. Her shoes were black high tops, and neon green shoelaces. Her ears were pierced at least three times each, but at the moment she only had one pair of earrings in. She was called Anesta Greystone, but to the group she was known as "Nessy", a very beautiful 17 years old. She never did like to be called Anesta, because she thought it sounded like an old person's name.

~Ok, 1st Perspon POV~

Ok, so by now you're probably wondering who I am, right? I mean, after all of this you still don't even know my name or how old I am. Well don't worry, I'm about to fix that right now. My name is Emiko Nagase, but my friends have a habit of calling me "Emmy", not that I mind. I am only 18 years old, and currently a senior at the same school as my other three friends. The man that I was speaking to earlier on the video phone was my father, but you all probably figured that out by now. His name was Kantoyu Nagase, one of the top scientist in Japan. Sadly he rarely came home, but he always made a point to call me whenever he could, and tell me if he wasn't coming home. Well, that was when he remembered.

"I agree with Nessy, you should know by now that this seat is mine no matter what the circumstances." I laughed, grinning at Triston through the rear view mirror. He pouted, which was turned into a smile when Nessy gave him a kiss. One thing you should probably know is that Nessy and Trison are together, and they have been for about 2 years now.

As for myself - Erick smirked at me and swung his left arm behind my seat and leaned in for his customary good morning kiss - I have my own boyfriend as well. We only had a year under our belt, but it has been a wonderful year. You see all three of them are from across the world in a country called USA, though their circumstances for traveling over here were for different reasons. Nessy was sent here on a student exchange program which both her and her parents agreed too. She and her parents were given a free pass to travel to Japan and even has their housing being paid for by the program.

As for the Wilenski brothers, they traveled over here due to their mother's line of work. Their mother is a very highly respected scientist, and was recruited by the Nagase Science Department - which is of course owned by my father - to work on some projects. It was because of that, that I met the Willenskis and through them, I met Nessy who apparently had been going out with Triston a year before she moved over here. So in the end everything had worked out for them.

"Ok, gang what's on our agenda for the day?" I asked as Erick pulled off.

There was only a second of silence before me and Nessy yelled, "Shopping!"

Triston groaned, "We just went shopping yesterday! Can't we do something else today?" His response rewarded him with a light punch from Nessy, "Oh shut up! I don't ever hear you complaining when you insist on having me try on every piece of clothing at Victoria's secret."

Erick laughed, while Triston simply shrugged, "What can I say? Any excuse I can use to see you in those kinds of clothes I'll take." He leaned in stealing a kiss from Nessy's smiling face.

"Don't fret little bro! We'll see if they have any rocking games at Game Stop while we're there."

I couldn't help but roll my eyes. Those two loved video games. If it wasn't for school, or the fact that me and Nessy force them to go everywhere with us, then they might never leave the house. "I really don't care what you two decide to do as long as Nessy and I get to shop, and I get to go into Hot Topic." I said reaching over and taking Erick's shades, placing them on myself. Now normally, Erick hates it when other people mess with his shades as he is a big collector when it comes to them, but I've been able to bypass that thanks to our relationship. Besides, I always loved to look into his deep blue eyes. Just staring into them always had me blushing like a sappy little school girl, and boy does Erick love to tease me about it.

"Now make sure you give those back, Em." He said not taking his eyes off the road. I just grinned at him, "Of course. I would hate to have a repeat of last time." The time I'm talking about is when I brought them home, and then I lost them. He refused to leave the house the entire time until we found it.

More small talk filtered between the four friends as they closed in on the mall's parking lot. Luckily they were able to get a fairly decent parking, which didn't require too much walking on their part. Well, most of the time Nessy and myself are fine, but it's the boys that always get stuck with carrying the bags that we all buy. Which is why they are never too thrilled when we tell them that we want to go shopping.

We got into the mall and the first place we dragged the boys to was Aeropostale. We loved their clothes, as did the boys when we wore them as they were very form fitting. This went on for possibly 3 or 4 more hours and by the time me and Nessy were all shopped out, the boys arms were full of different colored bags, from different stores.

"Ugh, my feet are killing me." Nessy complained stretching out on the bench and laying her head across my lap.

"Who are you telling? My feet are on fire." I complained dropping my head back. "You two don't mind putting those bags in the car do you? We can do whatever you two want to do now."

"Gee how kind of you." Triston said rolling his eyes.

"Well at least we weren't dragged around until closing this time." Erick remarked as he headed back towards the exit with his younger brother. The second they were out of ear shot Nessy shot up, and got real close to me.

"Dude, personal space." I joked trying to scoot away only to be pulled back.

"I'm gonna let him take it tonight."

What the hell was she talking about? I raised an eyebrow, "And who are you letting take this thing I have no clue about?" Nessy gave me a playful shove, "Oh you know." She leaned into my ear and whispered it. I blushed and reared back.

"Are you serious!"

"Hey, shush it down." Nessy said making hand motions of "quiet down". "I figured two years is long enough to wait, and besides, I want Travis to be my first and no one else."

I shook my head, "Well it's not like I'll be able to stop you."

"What about you? You and Erick finally gonna do the deed?"

If it was possible I blushed harder, "No way. I'm just not ready for something like that. Anyway, I want to wait until im married to do anything like having, well you know."

Nessy laughed, "Yeah, yeah I know. You're lucky you know. People like Erick don't normally wait around, but he's one of the good guys."

"What do you mean people like Erick?"

"Well, you know. The popular, cool guys. They always try to get what they want, when they want it even if they have to get it by force."

I looked down, tracing the many drawings that was on my pants. "I suppose...I am pretty lucky..." I mumbled, before looking up at Nessy and smiling. "If Erick wants me that bad then he's just going to have to marry me then, isn't he?"

We both giggled, and it was around that time did the two boys decide to come back. "Did we miss something?" Triston asked confused by the two female's giggles.

Erick shrugged, "Apparently."

I stood up and slid myself under Erick's arm, wrapping my arm around his waist and placing my other hand in my pocket. "Well, we're gonna head off on our own, cause frankly I want some time with my boo before heading home."

Nessy laughed, "Yeah, yeah. Well I gotta break the news to Triston anyway." She said draping an arm over his shoulders. Triston looked confused, glancing from me to Nessy. I shook my head when he asked me what she was talking about, "Trust me, I'd rather not say. But you two have fun."

"Believe me, we will." Nessy winked.

I just blushed and pulled Erick away with me. Once we were some minutes away Erick asked, "Ok, so what was all that about?" He took back his shades, which were resting on top of my head, but instead of putting them on he hung them on his shirt.

"Just Nessy being Nessy, that's all."

Erick raised an eyebrow, and I just shook my head, "Trust me You wouldn't want to know."

He simply chuckled as he led me into a Hot Topic. He walked over to some shirts, and began looking at them. "Hey that one is cute." I pointed out, picking up a shirt with the band ACDC on it. "I already have enough ACDC shirts at home. I think I want something else. How about one with Avenge7Fold?" He asked me looking through some different shirts.

"Hey, babe you heard me?" He asked. Erick turned and saw that I wasn't behind him anymore and instead looking at some of the jewelry and hair color clip on they had. He walked over while I was looking at a necklace that said 'Epic Fail' on it.

"You want it?"

"Yep, and I'm going to get it. It's only 5 bucks too." I said taking it off the rack. Along with that, we got three shirts, one of them being for me, some CD's and finally some glow in the dark nail polish. Erick paid for it all, and as we were leaving the store, his phone went off. He took it out, reading over the text message he received and then placed his phone back in his pocket.

"Hey there's a party tonight, you want to go?"

"Naw. I really don't feel like going to a party tonight. I've been feeling pretty tired lately." I said looking over one of the CD's Erick brought.

"No problem, I'll just drop you home then. It's getting pretty late anyway."

We walked around for a bit more, and got something to eat, along with sharing a few kisses along the way. 9 o'clock approached fairly quickly before Erick and I met back up with Nessy and Triston. Both of whom seemed pretty eager to get back to the house. I could only shake my head and Erick chuckled suddenly realizing what was going on.

I was the first to get dropped off. Apparently the other three were going to go to that party. I never really went to many parties. I just wasn't that type of person, but there were a few times where I did go to a few. I leaned over and gave Erick one last kiss, this one lasting a bit longer. If it wasn't for the fact that Nessy and Travis were back there pestering them about getting to the party before it's over, the kiss probably would have gotten deeper.

"You guys have fun. Love you Erick, see you two." I waved to them, before heading up to the gate. After showing my card I walked into the courtyard, and listened as the car pulled off leaving me alone. The lights in the mansion were on, but it was probably the last of the maids and butlers doing some last minute things. I wobbled up to the door, ringing the door bell, just barely since my arms were filled with all of the bags that I got from the mall.

"Welcome back Nagase-San." The butler said bowing. "Here, let me take these bags for you."

I smiled, "Thank you so much." I was quick to hand over the bags, and then practically dragged myself up to my room. The second I saw my bed I felt even twice as tired as before. The Butler dropped my bags off in my room, and then left with a bow, but I wasn't really paying attention. As I was already fast asleep the moment I laid down, not even bothering to change my clothes.

Ok, I just decided to do this chapter to at least start this one. It's kind of boring but it's the intro to the whole story. It'll probably be the same way for the next two or three chapters. As in it being pretty slow. But yeah...

Tell me what you guys think!
