I love my little Angie...

I don't own the songs, or anything else that are by artists.

Review :)
(Sorry for the late update! Hope ya like!)

The school bell rang.

The doors opened and students began pouring out of the building – fast.

Angie hopped down the stairs, her ponytail bobbing up and down. She felt someone tug her hair from behind and turned to protest, "Hey, stop – Oh. Hey, Hunter." She smiled at him. "Hey there, lil Angie!" he grinned and winked at her. His eyes focused on something behind her and ran past her, shouting goodbye. Angie turned and saw him jumping into the school bus, which pulled away right after he hopped on. She could barely see him looking back, waving to her. She blushed.

"So I'm wondering, ya see. My little sister is blushing while staring after a bus that's going around the corner, yeah, and she doesn't realize her big brother watching her eh?" Jack chuckled behind her, putting on a fake accent.

"Jackie!" Angie ran to him and hugged him, wrapping her arms around his waist. He laughed, and ruffled her hair. She looked up to smile at him, and she frowned when she saw he was almost a head taller than her. "Aw, that's amazingly adorable!" a light feminine voice cooed. Jack froze. "Aren't you going to introduce me to your little friend, Jackie?" Angie pulled away and found herself staring at a girl.

She was pretty tall. She wasn't very pretty, but she had nice dimples. She had freckles scattered on her cheeks, which made her look younger than 15. Her eyelashes were curled and her eyebrows perfectly plucked. Her lips were thin, and she had dull, brown eyes. Her hair was down till half her back, and she had clipped up her fringe with a neon coloured clip, which stood out easily. She was slim, and had few curves. She wasn't what you'd call stunning, but decent and sweet… when you first see her.

"Hello Bridgette." Jack murmured, trying to pull Angie closer to him. Angie looked up at the girl who was looking at Jack with a weird expression on her face. "How are you, and who is this?" she crooned in a sickening sweet tone. "I'm fine, thanks, and this is my special little girl, Angie." He said, hesitating to reveal who Angie was. "Aw, no wonder!" she smiled. Angie cringed. Usually when people smile, their face lights up and their teeth sparkled. However, this girl looked like she ate a sour prune and didn't brush her teeth for a few days. She began asking Jack all sorts of questions. After five minutes, she asked Jack, "Could I come over for dinner tonight?"

Jack's grasp on Angie tightened and Angie nearly cried out if it weren't for a sing-song voice which interrupted them, and crashed into her.

"God, I'm so sorry!" she chirped. Angie looked up and saw a tall, slender girl towering over her. "JACK!!!!" she practically screamed into his right ear, making him flinch and lose his balance for several seconds. Bridgette was steaming. Angie looked around and saw that there weren't much people left. Most had gone home. "God, Cassandra! Don't ever do that again!! I'll end up deaf!" Jack wailed, pulling a face. She giggled, "That's the whole point, Jack!".

"Sorry, Bridgette, darling, but I'm going to have to steal Jack and this little cutie here from yah! Bye!" she grinned, and pulled Angie and Jack both by the arms and marched off to the sidewalk.

She dragged them to one of the benches prepared there, and sat down, "You owe me, Jackie."

"Shut it, Cass,"

"Hah, she was so onto you!"

"Cass… quiet,"

"Who's this little sweetie?"

"My Angel,"

"Peadophile."

"She's my sister, Cass!"

"Ahhh, why didn't you say so?!"

Angie felt dizzy. Why were there so many hyper and loud people in the world these days? It is a good thing, but this was just her first day at school. Angel sat down next to Cass. Cass wrapped one arm around Angie's shoulder and grinned at her, "Hey there, I'm Cassandra, or you can call me Cass." Angie flushed and nodded, "Hello…"

"She's so polite, Jack! She can't be your sister!" Cass teased him. Jack grinned and flicked his hair, "Well, I guess I am a bad boy." Cass rolled her eyes, "Please, Jack, spare me." Jack laughed, and shove Cass's shoulder lightly, and sat on her right side, "So why were you screaming in my ear earlier?"

"Oh. I'm. Getting. Braces."

"Oh, sucks. I had them…"

"Yeah. Tomorrow, they're going to prod and poke my mouth."

Jack laughed, "More like mould and x-ray it, Cass. I've been there, done that."

Cassie grinned, and turned her attention to Angie, "So, sweetie, tell me about yourself. What music you listen to, your favourite animal, and how was school today?" Angie shot a look at Jack, questioning him, and he smiled warmly at her, and nodded. "I'm twelve years old, I've been living with Jack for the past two or three weeks… I listen to whatever Jackie listens to. I like his music," Angie slowly placed her words. Cass smiled, "Yeah, he sure has good taste in them. Go on." Angie bit her lip, "Mika is my pet mouse. My favourite animal is actually the lion, but I can't have it as a pet… so I'll settle for Mika. School was fine today…"

"Gosh, you're adorable. Mika is a really nice name… and you seem really mature, kid." Cass smiled at her. Angie smiled back and looked down at her hands. "Come on, Angie, tell Cass about that boy you met today," Jack cut in.

Angie blushed a deep shade of red and shook her head slightly. "Oh, come on!" Jackie urged her. "He's… nice."

Before either of them could say anything else, a car honk startled them all, and it turned out to be Jerry, coming to pick them up. "Jerry!!" Angie's eyes brightened and she ran towards the car, as Jerry stepped out. She crashed into him, and he lifted her up and swung her in a circle, "How's my little Angel?" She giggled and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Good!" she grinned. "Oh, look at Jackie and that stunning girl right there!"

Both stared as Jack and Cass muttered a few words to each other, and he stepped forward to give her a hug. He whispered a few words in her ear, and she nodded. He pulled away and smiled at her. Cass chuckled and said something. Jack's expression turned horrified as he turned his head to look at us. He gaped. Cass broke out laughing and patted his back. She walked away after waving to Angie and Jerry.

Jack jogged to us, and the first thing he said was, "Zip it, the both of you."

"I didn't say nothing, Jack." Jerry calmly said, trying to hide a smile.

"Me neither, Jack." Angie said, trying to imitate Jerry.

"Ok, get your asses in the car. Time to go home. I smell Ma's cooking from here!" Jerry exclaimed and all three of them hopped into the car, and drove home.

IN THE HOUSE
"Come on, Angie! Let's go play some guitar!" Jack shouted down the stairs.

"Coming, Jack!" Angie scooped Mika up from his 'doll house', which Bobby had made for him. Angie ran up the stairs, careful not to drop Mika and went into Jack's room.

She saw Jack sitting on his bed, shirtless, strumming his guitar. All he was wearing were shorts and gray socks. "What song shall I play today?" Jack murmured, "Give me a song, Angie!"

Angie thought about the songs Jack had on his computer…

"Collide by Howie Day," she smiled. Jack smiled back. "Collide it is, then."

He cleared his throat. Angie went and lied down on her bed on her stomach, letting Mika crawl and play all over her. Jack plucked a few notes and began strumming.

The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're barely waking
And I'm tangled up in you
Yeah

I'm open, you're closed
Where I follow, you'll go
I worry I won't see your face
Light up again

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
I somehow find
You and I collide

I'm quiet you know
You make a first impression
I've found I'm scared to know I'm always on your mind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the stars refuse to shine
Out of the back you fall in time
I somehow find
You and I collide

Don't stop here
I lost my place
I'm close behind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills your mind
You finally find
You and I collide

You finally find
You and I collide
You finally find
You and I collide

How is it:)
