This is my first story so try not to judge too much. It will be nice if you point out mistakes but try to be nice to the story. I hope you like it and will REVIEW it.

I grew up with a mother, father, older brother, little sister, and my twin sister. My brother is five years older than me, and my little sister is four years younger than me. I honestly don't know who the older twin is.

First, my brother got cancer when he was twelve. I was seven, and I was heartbroken. My brother and I were really close. He loved dancing with everything he had, but the cancer was brain cancer. He was going to die and the doctors wouldn't allow him to dance. Isabella and I took it up for him.

We worked our butts off to learn to dance for him. We eventually got it right when we were nine. Kyle, our brother, had somehow survived. He loved watching us dance around the house or the streets. Izzy and I loved it too. It became our favorite hobby.

Kyle convinced us to try and join MSA when we were old enough. That was the last thing he said to us, besides I love you of course. Little Katie, our younger sister, was heartbroken and our parents favorite.

After Kyle died when we were twelve, our parents lost it. Our dad was never sober and he lost his job. Our mom went into some depressed state and only talked to Katie and yelled at our father. She also got beat by him. The only thing she did for Izzy and I was not let our father hit us. I'm kind of grateful.

Katie was even our father's favorite. We didn't mind it though. She tried to keep our dad away from us as much as possible. We thank her for that. Without her, we would've died.

The time finally came around, and we tried out for MSA.

They didn't do our type of dancing so we went for our other strong suits. Izzy went for drama. She got a nick name and everyone forgot her really name. She got called Kitty because when she moved around the stage, it was a swift as a cat. I went for music and they also forgot my real name and called me Foxy. It was meant like that because I was always dressed in something that made the boys whistle.

We went there for three boring years. In our senior year, good things happened…

This guy in my sister's class came over one day. She said his name was Monster.

I was sitting on the couch with Kitty waiting for Monster to arrive on Friday night. Our parents were out of the house and Katie was upstairs doing homework. I was in my usual, black shorts and a red tank to. I also had on black flats with red lases. Kitty was wearing blue jeans and a light pink shirt with flip flops.

"So why's he coming anyway?" I asked.

"We have to practice for the upcoming play. I don't know my lines very well and he's the stunt double for my costar, so he knows most of the guy's lines," she grumbled. She didn't like having to study extra.

I nodded and asked, "Then why am I here?"

Kitty smiled. "You need to be our audience." I nodded, sounded good to me. "And you need to make friends," She added.

That was mean. "I have friends!"

"I don't count. Besides, Monster's in the MSA crew. He knows people." She looked at me happily. "If you're friends with him, you could become friends with lots of people."

I glared at her. "I'm perfectly fine the way things are."

She sighed. "You need-"

The doorbell rang.

"He's here!" Kitty exclaimed. She smiled at me for a minute.

The bell rang again.

"If he's here don't you think you should let him in?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.

She jumped up. "Right!" I watched her run to the door behind the couch.

Kitty opened the door and let a boy that looked about our age in. His black hair was styled in a mullet, and he was kind of short, but I'd seen him dance. His shortness was an advantage. Overall, he was kind of cute.

He smiled warmly at me. "Hello. You must be Foxy." When I nodded, he continued. "I'm Monster."

"Hi," I said softly. I never really was very brave. That was one of the reasons I had no friends outside the family.

Kitty smirked at me then turned to Monster. "Kay, we're going to practice in this room. Foxy's going to watch. Okay?"

Monster shrugged. "Let's get to work."

Over the next hour, they practiced most of the play. It was only supposed to be an hour and a half play, so it was pretty short. Kitty's character died toward the end, so she was able to go through all of her lines. Monster apparently had all of the main characters lines down, so he had no trouble with it.

Finally, they finished. Monster didn't need to go for another half an hour, so he decided to talk with us for that time.

"So where are your parents?" He asked from his spot next to me on the couch.

Kitty was sitting in a chair across from us. I supposed I never mentioned this, but we were both wearing contacts to change our eye color. Her eyes were a yellowish brown and mine were a dark red. We both had green contacts with jet black straight hair. I had one red streak to the left on my bangs.

I realized we hadn't answered his question.

"They're out somewhere." Kitty said. We had no clue where they were, but they said they'd be back around midnight. They were probably at some bar right now, getting drunk, and wasting all our money.

He seemed satisfied with the answer. "What do you do in your music class?" He asked me.

"Um… I-I sing and make beats for my… uh, songs." I winced. I hate it when I stutter. It annoys the hell out of me.

"Cool." He looked around our small house.

Our kitchen, living room, and laundry room were all in the same room. Kitty and I shared a small room that only had room for our bunk bed and a desk. Katie had her own room that had a lot more room than even our parent's room. We used to have a bigger house, but our mom never worked and our dad had lost his job. We were living off the small amount of money Kitty and I had earned from various jobs. Katie tried to help as much as she could, but she was still only thirteen right now.

"Nice house," Monster commented.

"Thanks," Kitty and I both said.

Monster opened his mouth to probably ask another question, but Katie came downstairs.

"Finish your homework?" Kitty asked.

Katie eyed Monster for a minute. Deciding he was okay she looked at me and said, "I'm almost finished with my homework, but I can't figure out this last math problem."

I don't know why, but she tended to always ask me questions on homework, never Kitty.

I got up and walked over to her. I was fully aware of Monster and my sister's eyes on me. "What do you need?"

She showed me her paper.

While I was helping her figure out the problem, Monster and Kitty were talking softly. Right as she got the problem, Monster jumped up yelling, "Yes!"

Kitty burst out laughing and Katie raised an eyebrow. I just ignored him and checked over Katie's problem. As soon as I knew it was right, I looked at a grinning Monster. He was looking back and forth between Kitty and I.

"What?" I asked.

Monster turned his full attention to me. "Your sister here just told me you both could dance. The MSA crew just happened to be in the need of some dancers because Chase and Andy graduated last year. We could use you. If you want to join, of course." He added by the look Kitty was giving him.

I wanted to join, but I hadn't danced with a group before. Then I remembered Kyle. "I will if Kitty will."

Everyone looked at Kitty.

Her eyes got wide. "I… I'm not sure. We have enough to do around the house as it is. We may not be able to come and practice with you guys as much as you need us to."

I hadn't thought of that. We got lucky today with an off day, but that wouldn't be possible every day.

Monster must have seen that we weren't going to be able to join, so he sat down with a sigh.

Katie spoke up. "My birthday's next week," She said slowly. "If you guys wait till then, I could get a job while you go to rehearsals."

All our heads snapped toward her. Monster because she just implied that we earned the money around here, and Kitty and I because we didn't expect her to do that for us.

"I don't know," Kitty said cautiously.

"Please?" Katie begged. "I already feel really bad about not being able to help out, and I'd feel worse if you guys were held back from what you want to do when I could do something." She stood up. "I could start looking now and tell them to wait until Monday. Please!"

"Katie?" I grabbed her hand and stood up too. "You can't. We're older so it's our job to let you be a kid. If you get a job, it will make us feel bad because we were the reason you had to grow up faster than other kids. Please just stop," I said so only she could hear.

"You guys grew up before you had to!" She yelled. "You two were twelve when you had to get a job!" I winced. Monster was defiantly able to hear that. "I want to help you. That's all you guys have done for me, so I owe you guys for all those years. Please." She tried one last time.

I looked over at Kitty and Monster. Kitty looked like she was thinking it over and Monster looked somewhere between shocked, sad, and curious.

I looked back at Kitty when she sighed. "You can help out if you don't get a full job but only work when we're not here. If you're at work when we are, it's over. Got it?" Kitty looked Katie in the eye to show she was serious.

Katie grinned and nodded. "I promise!" Then she ran up to her room yelling, "I need to look for a job!"

Kitty smiled and looked at a still shocked Monster. "I guess that's a yes."

He blinked. It took him a minute to proses what she had said. When he did, he grinned saying, "I'm on my way to practice right after this, you guys could come right now and I could introduce you to the rest on the crew."

"Okay, but we have to be back soon," Kitty started.

"And we won't be able to actually start until at least Tuesday," I finished.

Monster nodded. "Kay, let's go." He turned toward the door.

"Wait!" Kitty ran the upstairs yelling, "Katie you need to come with us."

Monster looked at me. "I've seen the way Kitty flies around the stage. She could be a dancer, but I've never seen you in person before, so you might have to prove yourself in front of the crew."

I nodded. "Thanks for the warning." I said right as Kitty and Katie arrived.

We all walked out the door, heading to Monsters car.

Kitty got shot gun and Katie and I got in the back. I was behind Kitty and Katie was behind Monster.

We rode in silence until we reached the school.

Monster smiled at us right before he got out of the car. "Time to meet the crew," He said.

I hope you liked it. Try not to be too harsh with the reviews. And please do review.

Bye!
