Just the sister

Chapter 2

A strip club, of course. I felt my face turn bright red as girls started to grind up against me. Zacky chuckled at my face and put an arm around my shoulder. A fast and loud song was on, I walked with the guys to a V.I.P. area and sat down in between Brian and Jimmy.
Jimmy smiled down at me, "Sorry, this is Zacky's favorite place." He chuckled as I shrugged as if I hadn't noticed the half naked girls walking around with trays and dancing.
"Erika?" Zacky asked me, getting my attention. I looked over at him and saw a pretty, petite girl around my age, "This is Gena. My girlfriend, Gena this is Erika, my little sister." I cringed at the word 'little'.
"Zacky, I am an adult, you know." I laughed, holding out my hand.
Gena smiled and shook my hand with her small soft one, "Hiya, it's great to finally meet you, this past week Zacky's been talking non stop about you." She laughed and sat down across from me.
I gave Zacky a pointed look, wondering what he's been saying, he held up his hands in defense, "All good things!" He exclaimed, sitting down next to Gena.
I rolled my eyes and smiled, "It's great to meet you too."

We stayed all night long, not bothered by anyone. I filled Zacky in on my life after he left, most of it painful memories. One after another I told him. He stopped me finally with a pained expression on his face, "Erika, I'm so sorry, I didn't realize my leaving would have such a great impact on your life. Why didn't you call me about the bullying?" He asked, grabbing my hands. The guys and Gena sat quietly, awkwardly.
I shrugged, "I figured you didn't want anything to do with me. You never answered back any of my letters." I felt tears build up in my eyes, I quickly wiped them away.
Zacky was shaking his head, "No, I did want something to do with you, I just didn't know how I could explain to you why I left. I didn't think you would understand." He ran a hand through his hair, "I thought you hated me, your letters were so painful to read."
I looked at him, "I was angry at you, Zacky," I stated bluntly.
He cringed at the hard tone of my voice, "I was angry that you left me to bare the abuse of mom and dad, of the kids at school. You were the one I always went to." I paused, maybe I should stop talking, "You made everything better."
I stared at my hands which were now in my lap, "I'm so sorry, Erika, I never meant to hurt you."
I knew he never meant to hurt me but I couldn't help but feel hurt, "I know Zacky, I'm over it now." I lied, faking a smile, "We're together now."

Once we got home I went upstairs to my room and cried my self to sleep.

"Erika?" Someone called through my door.
I jumped up, half awake, "Huh? Yeah?"
"Are you going to come down to eat?" It was Jimmy.
I nodded then realized he couldn't see me, "UH, yeah I'll be down in a minute." I said, wincing as my feet touched the freezing hard wood floor.
I pulled on some night pants and shirt and stumbled my way downstairs
"Ah! Sleeping beauty!" Brian cried, picking me up and spinning me.
I giggled and noticed Matt sitting on the couch, watching Brian with an intense glare, "Whoa, Tiger," I laughed, placing my hands on his shoulders, "Put me down."
He set me down a pout on his face, "Fine."
I straightened myself out before walking into the kitchen seeing Johnny and Zacky at the kitchen bar, "Hey girl." Johnny said in a gay man's voice.
I chuckled, "Hey boy." I said in the same voice.
Zacky smiled and watched me as I took some orange juice out of the fridge.
"What?" I asked, creeped out that he was staring at me.
"Do you want to go on tour with us?" He asked nonchalantly, looking at me.
"Well..." I hesitated, seeing Zacky frowned, "...I kind of thought I already was." I smiled shyly and took a swig of juice.
Zacky smiled, "Alrighty then! We leave in a couple of hours.
I nearly spit out my juice, "A few hours? I have to get ready!" I exclaimed, dropping the juice and running up stairs.

THe bus was gigantic! It was almost as big as my parents' house back home. I stared down at the step leading in.
"Well?" Matt said behind me.
I blushed and looked back at him, "I'm too short to reach the step...these jeans don't help either."
Matt furrowed his brows and looked at my ass in my jeans, "Hey! Stop looking at it!" I exclaimed, laughing.
It was his turn to blush, "Here, I'll help you." He put down some bags and came over to me, picking me up bridal style in one swift move.
"Whoa." I laughed as he set me on the bottom step, "Thanks." I laughed nervously.
He smiled a little showing off his dimples, "You're welcome."
I bit my lip and then turned away. I didn't see Matt checking me out on the way up.
