Growing Pains

Tension In The Air

Mikey's POV:

I was in my room playing videogames. I was playing Destiny. Videogames was something I was somewhat good at. It was the day after the day Jay and I got into that fight, I was trying to ignore him. Whenever I try to ignore one of my brothers, it usually ends up with me acknowledging them anyway because I really do love my brothers. I want them to like me and I really want them to think that I'm cool, but this time I was making sure not to break.

"Mikey, let's go! Before I leave you!" My brother Ty yelled from outside of my room. I turned off my Xbox and walked to the door and opened it.

"Arghhhhh!" I was immediately greeted with a headlock and a noogie. "Get off!" I screamed.

"You know, you're lucky I didn't give you a beating for going to the party." Ty menacingly said.

"Pls don't, I said sorry." I was honestly surprised I didn't get killed by Ty. Instead he genuinely tried calming down, usually when he's angry he'll act out on it. "Ty let me go."

"It's fine, I was just worried about you." Ty said. "Alright well, go to the car, dad's letting me drive." I walked past the living room and into the inside patio we had. The inside patio is where all of our shoes were held. Jay and Justin were there putting on their shoes.

"Hey halfbaked." Justin exclaimed.

"Hey." I replied. Jay didn't say anything, he was too busy angrily putting on his shoes.

"Jay, that's gross. Don't you have other pairs of socks." Justin said to him.

"Shut the fuck up, if I want to wear these socks I'll wear them." Jay mumbled.

"They have holes in them."

"Ok and? Are you the fucking sock police or something holy shit." Jay sounded extremely irritated.

Justin's POV

I think he was irritated because of Ty giving him flack last night for being how he was with Mikey.

"Are you idiots ready?" Ty said while walking into the patio.

"Yes." Me and Mikey said in unison. There was silence from Jay. Usually when Ty and Jay get into big fights, it ruins the mood in the house. They are both extremely stubborn and so when they are in the annoyed with each other stage, that turns ugly real fast and when it gets ugly, well you don't want to be in the middle of that. The closest resemblance is if two lions were fighting with one another with their claws.

"I hope you won't have that pissy mood the whole day." Tyson bluntly said to Jay. I think for Jay, he was especially angry because he had two people to be angry at; Ty and Mikey.

"Hop off my dick." Jay spat at Ty. Ty rolled his eyes and just took a deep breath to try and prevent himself from yelling at Jay. All four of us walked out the house and towards dad's car. Jay was ready to get in the front sit but was quickly shut down.

"Get in the back for acting like a dick." Ty sternly told Jay. Jay slammed the door shut and walked to the back and opened it.

"Mikey, get in the front!" Ty yelled to him. This pissed Jay off even more. I was screwed, I knew this. I had to sit next to Jay while he was angry.

"What movie are we seeing?" My little brother asked innocently.

"We're going to watch the reshowing of avengers." Ty answered. This caused groans from Jay and squeaks of happiness from Mikey which made Jay groan even more.

"Dude what?! I thought we were going to see Barbarian?" Jay complained.

"No, Justin hates gore." Ty answered.

"Since when do you care!?" Jay yelled. He was honestly right. I think Ty was doing it just to spite him.

"Shut up or I'll hurt you." Ty said increasingly loosing his patience. The car started to move and we were going to the movies. There was an amc close but instead we drove farther to get to a cheaper option called a cinemark. The car ride was oddly silent. Well it would've been completely silent if it weren't for Mikey talking about the avengers the whole ride there. To be fair, Ty did ask him, but when he asked I can tell he immediately regretted it. Once we got there, we got out the car and went inside. Ty bought a large popcorn for all of use to share and drinks. The theater was a bit desolate, it was only us and one other group of what looked to be a mother and her two young kids. They sat towards the front while we all sat towards the back. The movie was fine and nothing really happened. Ty and I were busy chowing down on the popcorn. Mikey didn't really have any because he looked like he was going to piss himself from excitement and Jay was quite the opposite. He was slouched in his chair and he looked like he was about to fall asleep. Once the movie finished we left the theater and walked back to the car.

"Oh my god that was just as awesome as I remembered."

"You watch it like every week." Jay mumbled to himself. Ty elbowed him to get him to Shutup. We drove home and as soon as we got back to the house, Jay walked straight to his room passing dad.

"How was the movies guys, and what's his problem?" Dad asked.

"Well the movie was good and I'm not really sure." I answered.

"He's just being a baby." Ty mumbled.

"Are you fighting with him Ty?" Dad asked.

"No, he's just being an annoying brat." Dad sighed, he looked disappointed but too tired to put his input in.

"Well, all of you... get to bed. You guys have school tomorrow." Dad told us. Little did we know that tomorrow would be hell.
