P.S. I won't be editing much...yes I do know there may be some mistakes but right now I don't have much time to edit really.

“Josh! Would you hurry up!” My brother seemed intent on making us late. Which was very evil considering I’m trying (to the best of my abilities) to get on Mr. Chen’s good side! Even though I kind of hate him right now for making me go on this damned trip.

“You contacted me, last minutes, Luna,” Josh said peeking his head outside of his bedroom door. “It takes time, I have to make sure everything important is packed!” he slammed his door. Just great. We’re going to be so late that Mr. Stick-Up-His-Ass…I mean Chen will fire me once he completely takes over the company.

I groaned and headed downstairs. Although I loves me some Josh, I seriously want to murder him…only sometimes of course. He is after all close family. The closest sibling I have really.

“Hey, Sweetie,” My dad came out of his office with a grin.

“Daddy!” I go over and hug him. He’s such a big teddy bear, built up with muscles. Plus he still looks like he’s in his mid-thirties and I know for sure he’d much older than that. Though I can’t really say anything because so does my mom.

“Taking Josh on a vacation?” He questioned. Probably curious as to why I would want to take my brother on a relaxing vacation with me.

“More like taking Josh to work with me,” I told him with a smile.

“You haven’t even left yet and you look stressed, Sweetheart,” He frowned, looking at me. He was very observant, both my parents were.

“I can’t skip because…it’s a lot to explain,” I said, shaking my head. I like, no scratch that, love my job. It was just Mr. Chen that I don’t like. He was killing my work vibe.

“Well I hope you have a little fun, at least,” He said as he walked towards Josh’s room. “I’ll get your brother to hurry the hell up, hmmm?”

“That would be very much appreciated,” I laughed. If anyone could get Josh to hurry it was my father.

My dad nodded and went into my brother’s room without even knocking.

“Hey-!” Joshua exclaims as my father pushes him outside of the room. “I’m not finished packing!”

“I’ll finish packing your stuff,” Dad said sternly and shut the door, locking Josh out.

“Rude,” He mutters and brushes himself off.

“Maybe if you didn’t take so long…” I begin but stopped at the glare he was giving me. I laughed, “I’m just trying to state the truth.” I shook my head, “Come on, let’s go to the car. Dad’ll bring all your luggage.”

“I only have one suitcase,” He told me with a frown.

“Oh…” How…no why was it taking him that long to pack one suitcase? Knowing Josh he was probably organizing everything that could fit into his bag a certain way.

“How’s school been?” I asked him as we walked to the car. We live pretty close, I’m only an hour away from my family but I don’t get to see them much. I’ve been so busy with work I hadn’t talked to my little bro in a while.

“It’s been great. I’m on the verge of discovering a new chemical for a project of mine,” He says all this conversationally. Like it’s perfectly normal. It’s really not. Josh is literally a genius. He graduated high school in sixth grade. He’s in school now simply for pleasure. Which absolutely disgust me. Who likes school, really?

I’m nowhere near as brainy as he is. I barely know how to do math anymore since I got out of college. My limitations are adding and subtracting also occasionally multiplying, but only by ones, twos, and tens.

“Is that good?” I assumed it was a very good thing. Josh was on his way to win a nobel peace prize or something.

“It could very possibly be a cure to Cystic Fibrosis,” He said as if this happened literally every day. “So, I think it’s good.”

Wowza.

“Wow, Josh. That’s awesome,” Much more awesome then what I was doing. Cooking and catering food for the rich.

“The labs are currently running test on it,” He beamed at me and  got into the car.

I looked at the front door as Dad came out with Josh’s suitcase.

“Here ya go,” He stuffed the bag into the back seat of Rover. “Have a safe and fun trip,” He kissed my forehead.

“Thanks. I’ll try,” I promised him as I got into the car. “I’ll try,” I murmured to myself as I started the car to head to the airport.

“Where are we going again?” Josh asked as I pulled out of the driveway.

“It’s a secret,” I grinned. Joshua loathed secrets which gave me reason enough to not tell him.

“Come on, Luna!” He whined. “You know I hate that.”

“Hate what?” I asked, innocently fluttering my eye lashes.

He huffed and looked out the window with a frown.

This just might turn out to be a fun trip.
