The Halstead Sister

Connor meets EJ.

Ej is 14 at this time.

Will POV

Me and Connor walk up to my front door, whilst i explain my neighbourhood and how our neighbour once threw hot water at us, and it caught jay in the foot.

We enter the house,

'Dad, you here?' I say walking through to the living room, where both jay and dad are watching a game.

'What the hell are you doing here?' dad asks, sounding out of breath.

'I called him,' jay says from the sofa,

'You didn't need to. I'm fine.' Dad claims.

'No, you're not. You missed three days of work and you never miss work.' Jay says. I hear some noise from upstairs. I look at jay who grabs his gun.

'Jesus Jay, it's your sister. No need to be so melodramatic,' Dad groans.

'How come she's not in school?' I ask.

'Suspended,' dad breathes out,

'Why?' jay asks,

'Kept swearing at the teacher then said, 'fuck off bitch.' Leave her be,' Dad says.

'Yeh, no not going to do that,' jay says and walks out of the room.

'Didn't know you had a sister Will' Connor pipes up.

EJ's Point of view.

I'm sitting in my room minding my own business, when I hear my name being called, 'EJ come down now.'

Jay?? Wtf since when was he here. I decided to ignore him and put my headphones in but then realised that my phone was dead. URghhhhh.

'ELLIOT JAMIE HALSTEAD GET DOWN HERE NOW OR SO HELP ME GOD' Jay bellows from the stairs.

I hesitated then walked to the door, and then walked down the stairs.

'Hello, to you too,' I say sassily, 'to what do I owe the pleasure.' But before he can answer I walk past him into the sitting room,

'Dad, I need...' I see will and another man in the living room.

'Hello William, and strange Dr man.' I greet and sit on the sofa.

'We need to talk Elliot,' jay says walking into the room.

'Really Jayson,' I groan I see the guy staring at me, 'The fuck you looking at,'

I then get a series of, 'woahs,' and sharp 'hey's from the room.

'Elliot shut your gob,' dad glares

'Jeez sorry,' I say.

Before anyone else can say a word, the strange man peeps up, 'Will your dad need to go to the hospital,'

'Good look with that,' I snort,

'Shut up you little shit,' dad says, stunning everyone in the room, 'another word comes out of your mouth and imma tan your backside so hard you won't be able to sit for a month.'

I immediately, shut my mouth and shift uncomfortably, and look down at my feet.

Do I make myself clear?' he asks, and I nod.

'What was that?' he says sternly

'Yes sir,' I say.

'Dad, Connor is right,' will says, ahh so the guy is called Connor.

'Ill call and ambulance,' Connor says,

'No. I'll be damned if anyone saw me being hauled out in an ambulance. I'll drive,'

'No we'll drive,'

'Will, I've got to get going, keep me updated', jay says,

'okay will do, connor can you grab his coat, I'll take him out to the car.' Will says

I stay sat down and looking at my feet, ignoring the commotion that is going on around me. Sometimes I really hate my brothers, they rarely ever come by and yet they always fucking interfere. Making Dad even more angry than he can be.

'Kid,' I hear someone say but ignore it, 'Hey kid,' they repeat.

I look up and see connor staring me, 'What?'

'Come on, you're coming as well. Grab a coat or something.'

Skip to the hospital

We walk into the hospital and a nurse that I recognise but can't remember her name, comes up to us,

'Problem's getting an ambulance,' she says

'more like problems with the patient,' will says and I scoff.

Will turns around to glare at me but I just stare at him. When they get dad on the bed and talk some dr shit.
