Scraped Knee

Trying to Get Along

I reached for my phone as Chris held it high up in the air. I jumped almost reaching it, my fingers touched the cold case. Chris held it higher. I jumped onto Chris grabbing my phone. Once I got my phone I started running. I ran down the hallway as fast as I could but I was to late. Chris grabbed me and took my phone away and shoved it into his pants pocket. "Please!" I whined.
"No" he said carrying me back into the living room.
"Why do I have to go with you?" I asked.
"Because I can't leave you alone here at the house" he said getting his bag.
"I'm staying in the trailer" I said as we walked outside and got in the car. Chris was going to be filming Captain America: The Winter Solider and I had to go with. I was kinda excited but not a lot. I was gonna give Chris a hard time. Well at least try. He'd knew it'd be a challenge.
I sat in the trailer wanting my phone badly. What if Cassie texted me?! Cassie was my best friend and we've been friends since kindergarten. Cassie had long brown hair and big hazel eyes. She's like my sister. Well older sister because she's 5 months older than me. I played with my shoe laces for a long while. Soon Chris came back into the trailer and got ready for another scene. He stared at me from the mirror. I looked at his reflection and rolled my eyes laying back down of the small couch.
I still could've gonna to foster care. I kinda accept his apology but do you guys really expect me to accept an apology meant to be said 2 years ago.
After Chris was done filming for the day it was dark outside and we went home. When I got into the house as expected Chris had a outburst.
"Why won't you talk to me anymore?!" Chris asked putting his bag on the ground waiting for an honest answer. I didn't answer him I just walked to my room and shut the door. I wasn't mad. I was upset. I hoped mom was okay. I just needed to be alone for a moment. I sat down on my bed looking through an old photo album of me, Chris, Scott, Carly, and Shana. I smiled at the picture of Chris and me 5 years ago when we were at Disneyland and he was carrying me on his shoulders. I turned the page to see another picture of me, Chris and Scott sleeping on the couch together. I loved looking at old pictures wishing for those memories to be replayed like a record. Every time Chris was in town I kinda just shut him out since he left. I didn't talk to him back then a lot. We hardly spoke; he tried to get me to talk but I'd either shake my head or shrug my shoulders. I found a picture of me when I was 2 and Chris was holding me. I smiled at the picture noticing I was asleep on Chris's chest. Mom must've took that picture. There was a knock on my door but I didn't bother getting up. The door opened slowly and Chris walked in.
"Hey" he said probably worried I'd ignore him.
"Hi" I said almost on the verge of tears.
"Whatcha looking at?" He asked sitting beside me.
"Old photos" I said as he saw the picture of me and him...
"Come here you little munchkin!" Chris said tackling me into a big bear hug. I let out a scream as he nearly squeezed me to death. I was engulfed in Chris's warmth as he laid down on the bed and squeezed me into a large hug.
"You're squishing me" I said barely above a whisper.
"That was the plan" he said rolling over putting me in the middle of him and the bed. I let out a loud groan.
"Got off me you fat butt" I said pushing him off and wiggled away from him.
"Nope" he said with a laugh as I was pulled back into a large bear hug.
"What am I suppose to be learning from this?" I asked knowing there had to be a reason.
"That I'm sorry I wasn't there for 2 years" he said, "I'm not letting go until you start talking to me."
"Okay okay! I give up!" I said struggling under his grip.
"Yay! I have my little sister back!" He said in a goofy voice. I smiled warmly at my brother. He was my brother after all. I can't ignore this meatball. I let out a laugh.
"Wait! Did I just hear a laugh?" Chris asked.
"Maybe" I said smiling.
"I have succeeded!" He cheered and pulled me into a bone crushing hug.
"You're such a meatball" I said.
"Be down for dinner in 1 hour! Understood" he said letting me go so I could breath.
"Yes sir!" I saluted to my older brother making him smile.
