Brothers

Chapter 03-Nerves

[EDITED] 

::Justin's Pov::

I jumped out of the tour bus and made my way to McDonald's. Jason soon caught up with me. "Damn Justin. Any faster you would've caused 'The Big One'." He laughed. I rolled my eyes and faked a smile. I felt sick and my stomach kept churning. Maybe I was hungry. "Welcome to McDonald's may I take your order?" An elderly man at the cash register asked. "2 number ones please." I ordered. He nodded and marked it down. "Is that all?" He asked politely. I looked over at Jason and he nodded with a small smile playing at his lips.

I turned around to the man and nodded. "that's all." I smiled. "$12.45." I took out my money and gave him a twenty. "Keep the change." He smiled and nodded. He handed us our cups and I made my way to the fountain drinks.I poured some ice into the cup and filled it up with sprite maybe that'll ease my nausea? "Justin." Jason called out. I took a swig oy my drink and then answered him."Yes?" I said "You okay?" Jason asked eyeing me suspiciously. There's my dear brother for ya. Always worried.  Maybe I am acting weird? But why? I feel fine. Well a little fine. My stomachs just hurting but that's probably because I haven't ate. I sighed and turned to face my brother.

"I'm fine Jase don't worry." I smiled as I sipped from my cup once more. He filled his cup with coke. "You're order is ready." The guy called out. Just realized this McDonalds wasn't packed. Just an old couple drinking coffee and a young woman with their child playing at the playground area in the back. I nodded and walked over to him and grabbed the bag. "Thank you. Have a nice day" he said. "Same to you." I replied and walked out of McDonald's with Jason behind me. "Justin Andrew." Jason snapped. "Jason Damian." I snapped back, No Andrew isn't my middle name. People made a rumor up saying it was so Jason just uses it when he's mad. I think it's stupid. He finds it amusing and it kind of stuck. Mom finds it funny when he uses it against me. When I just want to piss him off I call him Derek. My supposedly 'look alike'. 

"What's your problem?" He grabbed my arm making me turn around. He grabbed pretty roughly. I winced and shrugged his grip off me. "Nothing's my problem." I rolled my eyes. "Then why are you acting this way?" He threw his hands up in the air. "Like what?" I looked at him. I was generally curious. I have no idea what's going on with me. I didn't even know I was acting some sort of way.   "Like a brat." He snapped. I rolled my eyes and walked away from him and into the bus. "Here." I took out his order and left it on the counter and walked into my room. Was I acting like a brat? It didn't feel like it. I just- I'm just nervous ok? Don't go judging me because I'm being a dick to Jason. I finally figured it out. I'm nervous. In another world i'd be shitting bricks. I'm terrified of the ocean. It's stupid but it's a phobia or a fear I can't get over. Why? I don't know.

Great now I'm a brat and crazy. I can't believe I'm talking to myself. This is considered talking to myself right? Or who am I exactly talking? Why do I keep questioning myself? Nobody's going to answer me. Or are they? What if somebody's reading my thoughts right now. What would they think of me? Would they take my side or just call me a brat and take Jason's side? Great I am crazy. I'll just stop talking to myself now. I sat down on my bed and ate my order in peace. Once I was done I grabbed some jogging pants and a tshirt. I walked into the restroom and changed I don't think I'm going anywhere for the rest of the day. I laid on my bed and texted Demi while tweeting back some fans.

::Jason's Pov::

Mom saw me eating alone on the counter. She eyed me questioningly. I'm never away from Justin so it was strange to see me here. "Justin's with the boys?" She asked looking around the small space. Scooter and Mom just came back from a meeting with some publishers. Ryan, Moshe, and Alfredo were out for the day. They weren't going to be back till later tonight. They'll probably take a rental or a bus to the next stop knowing them. They've done it before just so they could stay longer. I sighed and shook my head. "Justin's mad because I called him a brat." I explained and looked down. I don't want to look at my mom. I know she'll be looking at me disapprovingly.
