"Beth"
"What?"
"Where are the boys?"
"Um.. I don't.. know...?"
Cierra sighed and rolled over in her position upon the couch, blowing a strand of hair that got in the way of her vision. Her and Bethany have been waiting their turn for the film room for at least 30 minutes. They waited for Jordan and Isaac to finish their video without snapping at each other. The two young adults had been at each others throats ever since they'd come back from visiting Jessica down in Houston.

At first they thought it was because Isaac was angry at Jordan for making him sick, which ultimately led to him not being able to compete in his rubix cube competition that he had been longing to do. He'd practiced and everything, only for Jordan to get sick during their week long trip. Jordan got over the sickness but then it spread to Isaac. But as time went on, the problem between their brothers seemed deeper, yet they couldn't think of anything that could've caused the tension other than the sickness.

Ever since they got back, Jordan and Isaac couldn't be in one room with out nudging each other until it got painful and they growled under their breaths. At dinner most times the couldn't sit next to each other since they'd constantly kick each other under the table. It even got to the point where Jordan and Isaac had gotten so angry that they had refused to film a video if the other was in it.

"Do you think they'll ever apologize to each other"

Cierra looked over to Bethany, who was now holding billy in her lap as she ran her fingers through his long, fluffy, ginger fur. She looked out the window and watched a bird fly onto a tree

"Eh, I'm sure they'll come around eventually. I mean they're brothers, it's what siblings do. They fight, then they sulk and blame the other, then they feel bad enough to forgive each other and apologize. It happens all the time to siblings everywhere."

She looked back, only to see Bethany staring at her in awe.

" Since when were you so wise?" Bethany chuckled.

" Since I was born. I was the most wise baby there ever was!!"

They both broke out into laughter. Billy got startled at the sound and howled, hopping off of Bethany's lap and padding out of the room, only causing the laughter to increase in volume. Cierra giggled and wiped a tear from her eye. She sat up in her seat, taking her phone off the charger and bringing it close to her chest. She tapped on the 'Messages' icon and told Jordan to hurry their butts up.

The sisters waited for about 10 minutes, yet there was no reply from their oldest brother. Cierra groaned and slid off the couch, onto the floor. A few minutes went slowly by until Bethany stood up and stomped her foot.

"That's it! I'm not gonna wait here. It's been thirty minutes for Pete's sake!"

And with that, she briskly walked to the basement door and walked down the stairs, slamming it. Cierra watched in confusion and shock. She had never seen Bethany that impatient before. Cierra slowly looked down at her phone again, and scrolled through Instagram, liking some peoples posts. It was less than a minute later when Bethany came out of the basement door, slamming it behind her and leaning against it, breathing heavily with a worried look in her eye.

"Cierra! We have a problem!"

Cierra instantly got up, walking towards her sister.

"What kind of problem?!"

Bethany gave her a panicked look and opened the door for a few seconds. Immediately, their brothers' voices filled their ears. They were yelling, and judging by the tone, it wasn't a friendly yelling.
