She is 12
JJs POV
"Hey Y/N you ready to head out?" My brother asked glancing down the hall toward our currently sleeping father. "Can I stay here today?" She mumbles curling into a ball. I give her a confused look. She never passed up a beach day with the pouges. "Um... I mean... Why?" I say not answering her question. "My stomach is bugging me a little bit." She mutters. I walk into her room and put a hand on her forehead. She felt fine. "Can I stay?" I didn't want to force her to do anything but I definitely didn't want her here alone with our father. He has been in an extra bad mood this week. It's moms death anniversary tomorrow. "This have anything to do with tomorrow?" I realize. She shook her head. "No. I promise. My stomach just really hurts." She says nervously. She was hiding something. "I don't think staying here is a good idea Y/N. You know how Dad gets." She bites her lip. "I'll be fine. I will lock the door and won't leave my room. He won't even know I'm here." I sigh. "What if you puke? I won't be here to help you and he will flip. You can rest at John Bs." I say worrying about my little sister. I wouldn't be able to live with myself if she got hurt. "I'm.... Opefjd..." she mumbles fast. "What?" I say genuinely having no clue what she is saying. "Igtmped." She mumbles fast. "English. Can't help you if I don't know what is going on." I sigh confused. "I got my period." She says shoving her pillow over her face. I hesitate. I wasn't equipped to deal with this situation. "Ok..." I say slowly walking out of her room.
I call Sarah since Kie and I were currently fighting. I needed help with this one.
-Hey JJ what's up?
-I need your help. I have no clue what to do.
-Oh ok. Is everything ok?
She asked concerned.
-Y/N got her period. She is being all awkward and weird about it. What do I do?
-Well... Not be awkward and weird back. Is she ok? Like is she crying?
-No. She said her stomachs bothering her. She doesn't want to get up. She doesn't want to go anywhere but I can't leave her here with Dad.
-She probably is cramping pretty bad. Do you guys have a heating pad or anything?
-No but we have rice and a sock.
I say trying to improvise.
-Ok cool. You do that. How about any pads? She is a little young for a tampon.
-Sarah I am not prepared for this. We have nothing. Mom died like 10 years ago.
- Ok. John B and I are going to go shopping. Give her the sock with rice and tome Tylenol.
-Ok. Thank you so much.
I say hanging up. I heat up the make shift heating pad. While that is being done I grab her a water bottle and two Tylenols. I knock on her door and walk in nervously. She still had the pillow over her face. I put the stuff on her nightstand and take the pillow off her face. "Here." I say handing her the sock. She hesitantly put it on her stomach. "Thanks J." I hand her the medicine and she takes it quickly. "Thank you." She mumbles. "Yeah. Why are you being so weird with me?" I ask sitting on her bed. "Because it's embarrassing." She says putting the pillow back on her head. "Look I know it's weird cause I am your brother and all that but you can always talk to me. No matter what. Yes I might tease you a tiny bit. But I won't ever judge you or anything." She starts to cry and panic. "You're the best brother ever." She says reaching her arms out for a hug." I kiss the top of her head. She chills like this for a couple minutes before there is a knock on the door. I hurry up and answer it before my dad wakes up.
I put my finger to my lips telling them to be quiet and point to my sleeping Dad. Sarah hands me a bag. "I want to tell her a couple things. It is better if you stay here." She chuckles heading to her room. "How you holding up?" John B asked me. "Oh I'm great. My little sister is a woman now apparently. I thought I had more time before dealing with this shit. Next she's gonna be having sex and telling me she's fucking pregnant." I ramble. John B starts laughing. "J she is 12." I roll my eyes and Sarah comes back. "She should be all good. If she has any questions tell her to call me." I hug both of them. "You're both a fucking lifesaver..." Sarah chuckles. "Go watch some tv with her. It'll cheer her up a bit." I sigh and head to my sisters room. "Wanna watch a movie?" I nod and she scoots over making room. I get in bed next to her and she puts her head on my shoulder and my laptop on my chest. "When did you steal that you sneak?" I chuckle. "Last night. I wanted to watch Flash and you were already passed out." I roll my eyes and she scrolls through Netflix. "Spider-Man?" I nod and she turns on Spider-Man 2. "Thank you J." She says looking up at me. "Of course Y/N/N." I say smiling down at her.
