My Brother's Best Friend

The Party

There once was a girl, she had 5 brothers. Her brothers were Jack, Carl, James, Augustus, and Kyle, they were all older than her. Ashley was 14, her brothers were 17, 17, 17, 16, and 15. They were what you call overprotective, making sure her outfits were appropriate, no boys even thought to look at her, and she was always near them. She did love them, but she did not like the way they were about her, they had very strict rules, like really strict! Their parents were never around, which left Jack, Carl, and James in charge. Ashley was never allowed to step foot out the door after school. She felt like a prisoner, like a princess locked in a tower. At school if her brothers could not be around they had one of their football friends in her grade do it. Ashley had her suspicions about her brothers, but did not dare to say anything. Ashley had started her freshman year of high school and was always under watch. Ashley did not like it but knew her brothers were just trying to protect her.

"Ashley!" Jack called from downstairs. "Today is the party. You are not allowed to come out of your room I do not care who is here."

"Try it." Ashley said. "I'm coming out. If you want I'll stay with Brandon."

Brandon was Jack's best friend, he was also on the football team like all of Ashley's brothers. He had blonde hair, blue eyes, and like every other football player, abs.Ashley had a crush on Brandon, but could not tell her brothers. Brandon had a great personality, and like Augustus he was 16. So, because Ashley turned 15 tomorrow it would not be a big deal.

"Fine!" Jack said. "On one condition."

Ashley had to wear her hoodie and Jeans. No crop tops or shorts (which she did not own, until tonight).

The party had just started and Jack was already mad.

"What are those!" Jack screamed.

"Clothes." Ashley said.

"Go." Jack said. "Go change now!"

"If you can catch me!" Ashley said and ran into the crowd.

Ashley was running in the crowed and tripped. She looked around to see if anyone saw her, and of course Brandon was running towards her to help her up. Brandon reached his hand out trying not to laugh. Ashley grabbed his hand and he pulled her up.

"Your brothers let you wear that?" Brandon asked.

"Why do you think I was running?" Ashley said. "Jack's head is through the roof."

This made Brandon laugh. Brandon and Ashley decided to walk around. While walking Ashley spotted Jack and told Brandon to hide her. Jack spotted Brandon and started walking towards him.

"Have you seen Ashley?" Jack asked.

"No, maybe she went to the garden, she loves it!" Brandon said.

"Okay." Jack said.

Ashley waited for Jack to leave and stood up.

"How did you know I liked the garden?" Ashley asked.

"Lucky guess." Brandon said. "Okay you have got to go before someone else finds you, because knowing Jack he probably has a whole search squad looking for you."

Ashley started laughing. "Okay dork." she said and walked away.

As Ashley was walking she could not help but feel happier. It was like she escaped her cell, escaped her tower. She was free!
