Two days later... Sunday afternoon
jades POV
We arrive home and as soon as I walk into the door Michael engulfs me in a hug almost making me fall onto Derek
" woah there, I thought you said I was annoying and irritating? So why are you being so caring? Wait... Did you break something of mine?" I ask
Michael let's go of me then scratches the back of his head trying to avoid my questions
He defiantly broke something
We stand in the front hall until he answers
" well, I kinda... Well.... The earliest memory I have is seeing you when you were about six and past out in Derek's arms, so when I saw you passed out in Derek's arms again, I had a panic attack... And realised I don't think your that annoying and irritating and I need my big sister" he says
He engulfs me in another hug and I hug back, we hear awes from behind the corner and Alisha, London, Fiona, Rachel (she probably signed an 'aww' with her hands), James and Dorian reveal themselves
" HEY ! I'm your big sister too! Where's my hug?!?" Alisha says fake pouting
" HEY! Did you go to hospital?! I think not!" Michael replies in his 'Sherlock' voice
He releases me once again then walks over to Dorian, they do some kind of handshake then walk around behind the corner, Fiona, Rachel and Alisha follow after them, me and Derek walk over to the awkward looking James and London, mum just walks to the kitchen
" what happened? The dork squad wouldn't tell me,they rushed past me when I opened the door, straight into the lounge where mum and dad where I mean I saw the car speed down the road so I knew you guys where going to hospital, so WHAT HAPPENED!!" London says all at once
I laugh when she gets out of breath, I pull out my Asmar inhaler and start to explain
" I was having an Asmar attack, Great explanation I know!"
Derek and James burst out laughing, I start to giggle a little bit myself but London doesn't laugh she just death stares me, which makes me laugh even more
" HEY I MAY OF SAID I NEEDED YOU JADE BUT THAT DOESNT MAKE YOUR LAUGH ANY LESS IRRITATING! SO SHUT IT!" I hear Michael yell
I calm down look at London, still death staring me into oblivion
" full explanation please" she says through gritted teeth
I smile and we walk to the lounge and I explain everythingTime SKIP!
James, London, Dorian and Rachel have left leaving me, Derek, Fiona, Alisha, Michael and mum in the house
Michael in his room doing God knows what
Fiona, Alisha and mum in the kitchen cooking... Actually mum and Fiona are cooking, Alisha just doesn't want to be in the same room as me and Derek,
And that leads me to me and Derek, we're in the lounge, I'm on my laptop listening to Fred Astaire by San Cisco looking though photos aswell, I'm trying to see how many photos I have that have me having something bad happen to me vs how many photos I have of Derek having something bad happen to him... So far it's jade 44 Derek 6 and Derek is watching ridiculousness on ze TV
" what's the score?" Derek asks not taking his eyes off the TV
" who's the guest?" I reply
" Smosh" he says
" me 44 you 6. NO WAIT! Me 45 and you 7 I found one with both of us in it, it's when we did judo" I laugh
Yes we did judo when we were younger, our parents wanted to get as much energy out of us as possible, ha! Bad Idea because look at us now, they probably also did it so that we could be taken care of by a different adult but have fun at the same time, ok more like physically hurt each-other at the same time
He laughs back, but I'm unsure if it's the fact of the photo or the fact that there is a hilarious video on the TV
" seriously Derek this is unfair! Why do I always have the photos where I'm either hurt or being hurt!" I whine
He looks at me and starts to laugh, I pout and probably look like a little kid in doing so, he continues to laugh and I can't help but laugh to
" stop laughing! I'm meant to be mad at you but laughing Is contagious, SO STOP LAUGHING!" I say between laughs
He stops then starts again, I calm down and go back to my computer
" Urgh your hopeless"
I look at the rest of the photos, a lot of the hurting ones being from judo going from when we were 9 to last year, we were really good at it but I couldn't handle the injuries and not to mention I got sleep deprived because I had judo on Tuesday's and Thursday's and then I would do violin after school on Wednesdays and Monday's AND because of homework I stayed up really late, so I stopped about February last year, Derek stopped because he's just lazy...
I finish looking through the photos and all up the score is
Me 100
Derek 26
" I WIN!" I yell startling Derek
Ha! Derek fell on the floor when I yelled 😂 too funny
" you win? Win what?" He asks clutching his heart
Oh I gave him a heart attack too? BONUS!
" the hurty photo thingy majig In total I got 100 where as you got 26 so ha!" I say
" no way! Let me see!" He says
He scrolls through a folder I saved with my 100 photos then another with his 26
I soon swipe my computer off him then go to my screen saver, the yin yang symbol
" what's that?" Derek asks looking over my shoulder pointing to the screen saver
I stare at him in Dis belief
" Derek McNally, I have known you for almost 17 years! You seriously cannot tell me you don't know what yin yang is! I have the symbol plastered over most of my belongings INCLUDING MY LAPTOP! Which you have seen about 400 hundred times and you are seriously asking me now what it is!!" I yell sitting on my knees so I can be taller than him
" hey, calm down! I was just asking.. And yes I have noticed I've always just been to busy to ask and when I'm not busy I forget!" He yells back
"SHUT IT!" I hear Michael yell before a door slams
I guess the ' I need my big sister' thing was temporary and I'm kinda relieved, it was creepy having a brother that actually cared...
" ugh... I may aswell tell you while you remember then.." I groan
I grab the TV remote and switch off the TV
" yay story time!" Derek says like a little kid
I laugh at the way he looks at me, he litteraly looks like a 5 year old watching TV it's so cute!
" ok, so there's meant to be two forces, the good and bad, yin and yang, Yin is associated with the earth, darkness, femaleness, cold and inactivity. Yang is linked with the complete opposite, the sky, light, maleness, heat and activity. Yin is a negative force; Yang is a positive one. That's basically what the symbol is, yin is the black with a white spot, and yang is the white with a black spot, they are at perfect harmony" I say
" kinda like you and me"
" what?"
" well you'd be yin, you like to be hidden away, which is darkness, you love nature, earth, your a girl, femaleness, and you are almost never active, inactivity, the cold thing is wrong about you but still, and the negative force type thing, well you always get bad things happen to you that's negative isn't it?" He says
" not the same thing you nit wit" I say crossing my arms
" I don't care, anyway I would be yang, I like the wind how I feel i can control it, so that's kinda sky I guess, umm I like waking up and it's light, unlike you.... So light, I'm a boy, maleness, I'm slightly more active than you, activity and heat I'm not sure of" he says
I can tell by the blank expression on his face that he's trying to think, I laugh and then I come up with an idea
" your hugs" I smile
" my Wah?" He asks
He's not listening, great...
" your hugs are always warm, heat " I say
A slight blush rises to his cheeks and I giggle
" yeah that, so yeah... Yin and yang, we are at perfect harmony... Ok more or less, seeing as we are having a prank war" he laughs looking at his feet
I laugh then turn back on the TV, he turns his attention back to that and again looks like a 5 year old watching TV, maybe mum was right,maybe we are 5 year olds in a 16 year olds body,
I look back at my screen and start to think, maybe Derek's right, we are yin and yang
" jaaaaaddddeee" Derek whines
" wat" I ask
" watch TV with me," he pouts
" no" I laugh looking back to my laptop
He grabs the laptop from me and places it on the coffee table, I try to get it back but he grabs me and drags me next to him
" Derek let gooooo" I whine
" not until you.... Umm give me.... Um something" he says
Great request Derek, something
I try to squirm my way out of his grip.
but it doesn't work.
I try prying his arms off of me.
Fail.
I try to scream for help.
Puts hand over my mouth.
Try to get his hand off my mouth by licking his hand.
Utter success.
Try to squirm out while he's distracted.
YOU GUESSED IT!............................................................fail
" just face it your never gonna get out of my grasp" he laughs
That's when the idea comes to mind..
What does Derek hate more than anything else...vomit
" oh god" I say putting my hands on my stomach just above Derek's
" what is it?" Derek asks
" I think I'm gonna be sick" I say
His arms immeaditaly fly off my waist and I get my opportunity, I grab my laptop and run, I shut it first of course
" never gonna get out of your grasp my butt!" I yell running into my room
I run into my room and slam the door behind me, I throw my laptop onto my bed then sit down infront of the door.
I hear foot steps run upstairs and to my door, he knocks on my door and probably expects me to answer straight away, which I don't, he continues to knock until he gets fed up and kicks the bottom of the door and I know it was the bottom of the door since it hit me
" ow!" I Say annoyed
" so you are there" I here him say
" no this Is a recorded message " I say sarcastically
" yeah and I'm Winnie the Pooh... Anyway that was cheating back there you know, you were supposed to give me something to get out of my grasp, not fake like your going to throw up AND YOU KNOW I HATE PEOPLE VOMITING! ESPECIALLY ON ME!" He complains
" well mr Winnie the Pooh, I did give you something... I gave you a story even though you didn't say to give you something till after it I still gave it to you didn't i?" I say
" ugh smart-ass" he whines
I hear his back hit the door and he slides down it, I laugh and stand up then open the door making him fall backwards, he looks up and sees me laughing
" awww liar your still not Winnie the Pooh"
" and you are certainly not a recorded message"
