The Story of Jackson Duval (Scream the tv series)

Pilot

"Oh come on Brooke... You know me better than anyone. Maybe even Em." I said nudging Brooke's shoulder. She scoffed.

"Yeah, I know you're a first-class douche." She teased.

I rolled my eyes and kept looking at the road.

"Why does Nina want us to meet her in bum fuck nowhere?" I asked.

"What the hell does that mean?" Brooke questioned. I looked at her and chuckled.

"The middle of nowhere... Duh." I chuckled lightly and Brooke rolled her eyes.

"I don't know." She replied, "All I know is that Emma, Riles, Tyler, Jake, and Will are coming too." I looked over curiously at her, then the road again.

"What the hell is Nina up to?" I rhetorically asked.

--One Week Later--

It was a typical Tuesday morning in the Duval household. Except, on the particular morning, my sister Emma and her boyfriend Will decided to be up pre-dawn waking me up.

When I heard the backdoor shut, indicating Wills' departure, I went downstairs to Emma. She was in the kitchen putting coffee in her thermos.

"Good Morning." She said with a smile resting on her face. I couldn't help but mirror it.

"What was William doing here so early?" I asked her while walking to the coffee pot.

"You heard us?" She asked. I got a cup from the cupboard and nodded.

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure Miss Withers down the street heard your lovey-dovey." I teased. Emma rolled her eyes, "Now, are you gonna tell me why he was here, or..?" I said while filling the cup.

"The calc test is today. But wait, you're in pre-cal.." Emma said in a mocking tone. I scoffed and chuckled lightly walking over to her.

"That was cold.. Even for you." I said walking back up to my room to finish getting dressed.

As I walked up the stairs, I could hear a faint laugh from the kitchen. At the top of the stairs, my phone buzzed. I looked down; 50 Chirpster notifications, 30 more likes on the recent Instagram post, and one text from my best bud Jake. 'the video went live bro... 500 views already' Jakes text read. A small chuckle slipped.

After I got done getting dressed, I walked downstairs again to Em and Mom talking about mom and Sheriff Hudson's not-so-subtle romance.

"We work together. Often over dead bodies." Mom said making me chuckle lighty. They both turned to look at me. I walked over and stood behind Emma's chair, grabbing the top.

"I just, think you deserve a second chance." Emma said to her. I nodded along. Mom scoffed.

"Well now that I have your permission, I'll make sure to fall deeply in love." Mother teased.

"Hey, don't act like its impossible." Emma replied.

"Yeah mom, you're a coroner. You're not dead." I said making Emma chuckle and mom scoff again.

"You two, get your stuff." Mom stood up with a slight smile on her face. "Let's go."

Not wanting to disobey the matriarch, we both grabbed our stuff and walked to the door. I got there first and opened the front door for both of them.

As Em crossed in front of me, I bent over to whisper something, "Shotgun..."

Emma groaned and kept walking. A smile apeared on me and moms faces. She thanked me, and we walked to the car.
