Chapter 1.

"It's 6:30 am and here is WHAM! With their latest number one hit, 'Wake me up before you go-go'" The radio alarm blared out as the opening lines of the latest hit started to play, it was soon cut short by a hand repeatedly hitting the offending machine. The boy had just dazed back off to sleep when a shout came from down the hall

"Aaron, hurry up…don't make me come in there, I will young man" Aaron rolled onto his back and blinked at the ceiling, about to close his eyes again he heard footsteps in the hall and quickly jumped out of bed, pulling his sheets and rug off in the process. The door creaked open and the face of his twin sister Lauren peeked inside the small crack that had been made

"mum says to be downstairs in five minutes or no breakfast"

"Laurie please, I'm a big boy, I don't need breakfast"

"ok, but don't go complaining to me at lunch about how hungry you are" and with that Lauren left the room and made her way downstairs. Aaron quickly pulled on his jeans and slipped a black t-shirt over his head, ran some gel through his hair, slipped on his high-tops and ran downstairs with his shoelaces still un-tied, tripping a bit halfway down the stairs.

Sliding into the kitchen he saw Lauren sitting at the island bench eating her cereal and sipping on a glass of orange juice, looking immaculate in her jelly shoes, white ¾ leggings with a hot pink mini over them and a white tank top, plastic bangles of every colour up her arms and her brown hair tied back in a high pony tail. He then looked to his mother, who was giving him that look that just screamed 'I am not amused young man', deciding that talking would end with a bad result, Aaron sat down at the bench and got himself a bowl of cereal, the kitchen was silent for the next 15 minutes until their mother declared that she was off to work and for the two to lock up before they leave. After finishing her breakfast Lauren got up and put the radio on

"Ohmigawd, I love this song" she squealed as she turned it up and then went to wash her dishes, and then Aarons as he put his bowl in the sink.

"Is this burning, an eternal flame" Lauren sang as Aaron rolled his eyes

"Ok Laurie, I love you and all, you're my only sibling to get me through adolescence, but please enough with the singing, we have to go to school" and with that he turned the radio off, picked up his school bag and walked out to his car, grabbing his jacket on the way. Soon followed by Lauren kind of skipping, kind of walking to the car with her books in her arms.

"First stop, Spot" Aaron said as they pulled out of the driveway and made their way to their friends' house to pick him up for school.

A/N: Ok I know its short, but I need girl characters before I can go any further, so if you want to submit a character e-mail me, the address is in my profile. Also I know Lauren seems like a Mary-Sue, but she's not, I just need to show a huge contrast between her being all bubbly and happy to Aaron who is more rock and roll.
