Welcome to the Family
Summary
Family was the reason Ranna moved from Australia to Huntington Beach, but it was also the reason her life keeps falling apart when her alcoholic and neglective mother tries to get her back..
Characters
Brian Haner Jr.
The one that tries to figure out the problems going on with Matt and his family and tries to fix them, this is probably the reason he’s so stressed now. Despite this, he’s usually the one everyone talks to if they have worries, especially Ranna.
Brooks Wackerman
Well adjusted to the band by now, and constantly having to deal with a sixteen year old due to not being left alone (totally not favouritism). A teacher and basically an older brother to Ranna, doesn’t really associate himself with what’s going on with her family, which is probably the reason she appreciates him so much. Out of everyone, probably the most over protective of Ranna.
Cordelia Fernández Brown
Ranna’s mother who will do anything to get her “precious baby” back, even if it’s just to make her life miserable once again. Absolutely hates the band and will do anything to make their lives hell to get Ranna back.
Grace Watts
An unlikely friend that Ranna makes at school, which escalates into more. She eventually makes a band with Ranna and new friend Miles, herself being a guitarist. However, as time goes by, it’s hard to say if the popular girl is dating the freak because her father is famous, but the lies are pretty consistent, too, especially when she’s hitting on her band’s drummer Miles despite dating Ranna.
Jacob Miller
Cordelia’s fiancé and Ranna’s step-dad. He’s the one that has shed some light in Ranna’s miserable life, and he’s the reason she was able to get back in contact with her real father. Tries his hardest to keep things right, holding Cordelia back from trying to get Ranna back but it’s very difficult..
Johnny Seward
Probably not the most influential to Ranna, but they become close, basically she becomes his adopted daughter. Cordelia seems to hate him the second most because how how much Ranna looked up to him as she grew up, having been her idol.
Matthew Sanders
Ranna’s father. After getting in contact with Ranna’s step-father and learning of the situation going on, welcomes Ranna to him and the band with open arms. Just wants to see her happy, but it’s extremely hard with Cordelia constantly taking a stab at him and the band.
Miles Heyman
That one guy that has all the chics after him. While’s he’s hella popular, he doesn’t care. Not until Ranna and him are suddenly in a band as the drummer and Grace is constantly hitting on him, despite being with Ranna. You’d imagine things would get messy from there for him, well, for everyone.
Ranna Fernández
The one stuck in the middle of the feud going on between her mother and father. She just wants a happy life, which she’s getting with her father, but her mother will do anything to get her back and make her life miserable once again.
Zacky Baker
The one Ranna has a high school crush on. Quickly becomes a close family friend, as he is with her father, and pretty protective of her. Like her father, he just wants the best for Ranna and will help achieve that in any way.
