authors note: wade has a little brother named Luke, George has a little cousin named Shane and tom has a little brothe named Jake and they're all Charlie's age. what a coincidence?!
My life has seriously went down hill in the last year.. I thought to myself as I walked down a dusty road, suddenly a car drove up beside me. There were two men in the car, one was blonde with piercing blue eyes and the other was black with gorgeous brown eyes.I was snapped back to reality when the blonde started talking.
"need a lift somewhere, darlin?" he said
"actually yea, I need to get to bluebelle" I said
"lucky for you we're goin' there, hop in" the black guy said
"OH MY GOD you're lavon Hayes" I was almost screaming
he started chuckling"why yes I am,and this is wade kinsella I'm the mayor in bluebelle may I ask your name hunny."
wade nodded.
"sure sorry, charlotte Wilkes but everyone calls me Charlie, and your probably wondering why I'm mum and dad used to live here, there names are.. were Erica hattenbarger and Harley Wilkes was my biological dad. I guess, I'm here to ask my cousin, aunt and uncle if I could live with them".
"oh ma god you're like a mini Zoe" he chuckled
"two things, one does everyone here chuckle every two seconds, and two who's Zoe?"
" well one yes, and two if you're Harley's daughter the she's your half-sister."
"I...I have a.. sister"I said smiling through my tears.
"you sure do and your like a mini her, she's working now 'til like half eight, so you can stay with me at the rammer jammer 'till she's done, lucky for you it's the night of the dance tonight, so make a good impression with the ladies and shake your little hips at the guys and ya'll be just fine.
I blushed a little "the rammer jammer, that some kind of disease" I snapped back. the blush quickly faded from my cheeks. he just smirked leaned over to lavon and whispered " just like Zoe."
when we reached the rammer jammer I could see people whispering but wade tugged on my arm and pulled me over to a bar stool, I sat down and started chatting to wade.
he started asking about my mum well he said momma but same thing. I shed a tear told him how "she got breast cancer two years ago, then my step dad left 'cause it got 'too hard' when she died I went to live with my auntie Gloria and her four children, then I moot kicked out cause of my attitude problem, then I went to live with my uncle Jim in England and got got kicked out there cause I don't like all girl schools and kept causin trouble, then L.A. with auntie Clare same problem, guess uncle terry saw it coming, wouldn't let me live with him in his new mansion,now I'm here,looking to see if my uncle mike'll take me in, me ma told me bout his daughter rose once or twice, said she's bout a year younger than me."
just the two guys walked in one, knew one from when I was in Donegal in my first school when My mum was alive... and his name was shane if I remember correctly, yep it was him, I'd know those big brown eyes and night black hair anywhere, but the other guy I definitly did not know him, he was drop dead gorgeous, he had short sandy brown hair big brown eyes and tanned skin.
wade snapped me out of my trance my going "I do believe your drowlin' darlin',course you'd fall for Shane though." "god,no I know Shane from when I was living in Donegal, he was in my first school, I leaned in to him, " been there done that", "no I'm talking about the guy standing next to him." "well.. um.. that's my little brother Luke,but ya don wanna be goin after him, he's somewhat of a playa."
just then someone tapped my shoulder, "hello I'm jake, jake long.. I.. i was wonderin.. if you'd... if you'd like to dance with me?.
"hey, I'm Charlie and yea Id love to dance with you jake."
I seen Shane notice me from the corner of my eye.
wade's P.O.V
"well, hello there big brother." Luke smirked.
"Luke,Shane" wade nodded to both boys.
"whose the new skirt dancin with long" Luke grinned
"first of all she's a lady, not a skirt, her names Charlie.." wade said
"not Charlie Wilkes, she's way sane te be her, wade put on 'she doesn't mind' by Sean Paul then I'll know if its her." Shane said grinning
"wait till the next sets over." wade said
just then Charlie walked over, she was smiling the same dazzling smile Zoe usually gives him. Luke smiled and waggled his eyebrows at wade.
"hey wade, cherry cola please." she dragged out the please.
"well, if it isnt Charlotte,Elizabeth,Catherine, Hayden Wilkes!Shane said as he grinned like a chesire cat.
without thinking she corrected him,"it's Charlie Wilkes,just Charlie Wilkes." she spun around to see who it was but it was the two guys she saw earlier, but the blonde had a grin plastered on his face.
"surely you can't be Harley Wilkes daughter, how'd that happen your just so and so is Zoe, then you see Harley, seriously though?"said Luke before she had time answer jake came over "askin what was takin so long" he said." ill get the drink later wade, thanks." Luke lost his grin as he watched her make her way to the middle, in her six inch heels, black high-waisted skirt and cream vest,while jake long wandered after her like a lost dog. when he saw wade staring at him he mentally slapped himself."what" he shouted over the music. wade smirked "I think a girl finally broke you." "you mean like Zoe hart broke you" he snapped back.
the set finally finished and at that moment Zoe hart wandered in the didn't see her and went to change the song to see what would he put on the song some people tried to dance, but Charlie who was on a sugar high after all the coke she had drank screamed at the top of her lungs "hold up this is my jam!" and she started doing all these dips and twirls, Luke was shocked at her, the lady as wade called her dancing the way she was dancing,one thing he was sure of she was nothing to Zoe hart!
wade spotted Zoe watching Charlie and made his way over to her at this stage Charlie had most of the women in the bar joint in with her even Lemon! Zoe asked "who the girl with all the energy?" wade answered simply "oh thats Charlie... Charlie Wilkes she's Rose's cousin and you're half-sister." he stopped to look at her "well ill see ya later doc." and with that he walked away.
after the song Charlie rushed over to the bar where her cherry cola was waiting. Zoe looked at her walked over with a dazzling smile on her face tapped Charlie on the shoulder charlie spun around. they stared at each other for ages before saying anything no wonder they didn't they looked exactly alike apart from Charlie's eyes, they Everest Mediterranean blue, Zoe's were like honey but Zoe stuck out her hand dr. Zoe hart but Charlie didn't go for her hand she went in straight for the hug. they were both in hysterics crying and shouting I have a sister I don't believe it. they sat down and Charlie explained her situation and Zoe was more than happy to have her stay with her. they are sisters after all and Charlie reminds herself of a younger version of herself, sure a wilder version, but a version never the less...
