Overprotective Times Ten {1}

2.3

"I.....um....but," I'm sweating a stuttering to no end.

"Jamie, Jamie. It's okay. Look at me, only at me," Aaron is urging me.

I get up off the couch. I look left, right, anywhere but her. I run to the door and fiddle with the handle. It won't open. I am hitting, screaming, ramming into the door. It won't budge. I keep at it. I don't stop. Aaron is trying to get me to come back to the couch. He does not get up in fear of threatening me. Jason busts open the door and sees me in my disheveled state. He immediately brings me into his arms and squeezes me tight. At first, I try to break free. But, he justs keeps holding on. I eventually become overly exhausted and give up just crying into his arms. I can't even anymore. This woman is so pushy. He takes me outside and hand me to Jake who gently pets my hair.

"All I did was ask her a question."

"The question you knew would break her. And you kept pushing."

"What do you know about being a therapist?"

"I know you're supposed to help the kid, not hurt them."

"We will not be returning and would like you to cancel are previously scheduled sessions."

"You'll never have to go back to her again. I promise," Jake coos calmingly.

"Thank you," I sniffled.

"No problem baby girl. Did having Aaron help you?"

"Yeah. It was a good idea. Thank you."

"He can go with you anytime."

I nodded. We all piled back into the cars and onto motorcycles. They opted to have Wyatt drive for me due to my current "mental stability."

We begin are ride home and I put on my pandora station. We rock out to This is Gospel by Panic! At the Disco. We get home and I go in and just fall onto the bean bag and rethink my life. Okay done.

"Hey Jamie, do you want to watch a movie?"

"Sure. Which one?"

"I think we'll let Brooklyn's family decide."

"Kay."

I go in to the media room and take a seat next to Jake and Jay. They comfort me.

"What are we watching?"

"How to lose a guy in ten days," Brooklyn says way to fast.

"No way, pipsqueak. We are watching Repulsion."

"Not a horror movie. Please."

"Sorry."

I whimper and little and cuddle into Jay. The entire movie I'm shaking. The guys are all laughing. Ugh.

"Do you need a refill on popcorn?"

"Sure, if your offering?"

I motion for Brooklyn to follow. She slips away unnoticed.

"We need to take back the media room."

"Yeah. But, how?"

"You take the drinks, I'll get the popcorn."

"By being waitresses?"

"No, just follow my lead."

I grab popcorn while Brooke pours the sodas. We prepare them while I go over the plan.

"Okay. Our plan is to wait until a really scary part, and walk into the media room to deliver the food. We get "scared" and accidentally spill the food and drinks on them. Finally, when they get up to go shower we take the media room back," I say menacingly putting air quotes around scared.

"Perfect. But, how are we going to know when a scary part is coming up."

"I've seen this movie at least eight hundred times."

"Okay, so how long do we have to wait? They could be getting suspicious."

"Right about now."

We walk in.

"Food's ready," I say. Everybody freezes.

Something jumps onto the screen and we throw the food up into the air in fright. The popcorn covers Jay, Jake, Jack, Jax, Josh, Jim, Keaton, Landon, and Harrison. The soda hits Wyatt, Colton, Jason, James, John, Justin, Kingston, and Aaron. Yes! Bullseye!

They all turn their heads and like at us. We look like deer in headlights. They pause the movie.

"I'm..I..We're..We're sorry. It's just the..the thing.. popped out and...boom!!" I stutter trying to make it believable.

"It's fine. In fact, lets show you how fine it is. I just want to show how much I love and forgive my baby sister. Hug?"

"No. No." I keep backing up until I hit a wall. Shit!

"Get her." Suddenly I am attacked with sticky hugs and disgusting soggy popcorn. Ew. I look over and see Brooklyn in the same position I am. Well, this didn't go as planned. We all go up and take our showers. At first, our plan was to shower really fast and get back to the media room; sadly, there is no possible way to shower faster than the guys. Thus, we are switching off. I am in the shower while Brooke is in the media room. The door is locked so she won't have a fight there. I actually have a trap door into there thankfully. I change and decide to drop in.

Thump.

Brooklyn startles then sees me. I pull down a ladder and she climbs. A few hours later we are on season two of Gilmore Girls and the guys are still outside trying to find away in. Good luck.
