Regan POV
For some reason, I woke up at 1:55am.No reason behind it. I tried to roll around and fall back asleep. That continued for another hour and it was obvious that I was not gonna be able to go back to sleep. I shifted my body in order to see the clock on the nightstand and it was already 3am. "Shit" I muttered to myself. I decided to get out of bed and get some sleeping pills. As I got downstairs and entered the kitchen, I turned on the lights and a scream of panic escaped my lips. "Shhhhh! You're gonna wake mom up!" Jack whispered. "You still snuck out?! How stupid can you be?!" I said without even bothering to whisper. "Damn it! Shut-" Jack began but another voice cut him off. "Regan? Is that you?" My mom called from upstairs.As soon as Jack heard her footsteps coming down the stairs, he rushed under the table and hid. "Honey what happened?" My mom asked cautiously. "Umm..." I stuttered while slowly walking towards the table where Jack was hiding. I suddenly hit the table causing a vase on the surface to wobble back and forth. "No!!" Mom screeched. I quickly caught the vase and stabled it. "It's ok mom. I got it." I said attempting to calm her down. "If that vase would have shattered young lady!" She warned. "Ok. See it's all better." I said taking my hands off the vase. She nodded in approval. "Have you seen your brother? I checked in his room and-" mom explained. Suddenly the chair next to my moved and made a scratchy sound against the floor. 'Jack is such a dumbass' I thought. "What was that?" My mom asked. "What was what?" "Regan don't play that card with me. How did that chair move?" "I moved it." I attempted to lie. She began to walk closer to the table. "No it-" I quickly took the vase and threw it the opposite direction of the kitchen door. The vase shattered into pieces against the wall and fell onto the floor. "REGAN GILINSKY!!!!!" Mom screamed in anger and ran to the pieces of glass on the floor. I looked under the table and jack already made a run for it. I shook my head and looked back up to see mom glaring at me. 'Oh shit...' Was all that ran through my mind.

Jack POV
I made a run for it and got up to my room. I don't know what the hell Regan was thinking. Now mom is infuriated. "Jack you will not believe what your sister just did!" My mom yelled from down the hall. I quickly kicked off my shoes and replaced my jeans with basketball shorts. I took a hoodie from closet and slid it on. Next thing you knew mom flung the door open while dragging Regan behind her by her ear. I remember when she did that to me and it hurt like hell. "Mom it wasn't her fault." I attempted to explain. "Shut up Jack you weren't even there!" Regan tried to cover for me. "Regan stop trying to-" I attempted but mom cut us off. "Jack talk to your sister while I go clean up her mess." She directed as she let go of Regan's ear and pushed her towards me and I caught her. "As for you young lady. You are grounded! You are not allowed to step foot out of this house unless you're going to school, or unless you are going out with your brother!" She nagged and slammed the door shut to my room. "Well I'm done..." Regan mumbled and Left my room. She went into her room and I followed behind. "Why did you cover for me?" I questioned. "Because we're brother and sister." Regan said. "I thought you were still mad at me. "Well no matter what, we gotta be there for each other. Even if I'm mad at you, it doesn't mean I'm gonna let you go down like that." Regan explained. "But I deserved it. I've been such an ass to you and you still end up covering me." I asked. "Yeah well...." She thought. I pulled her into my arms and she laced hers around my back. "I love you so much. I don't deserve a sister as amazing as you." I said through her hair.
