Do you honestly think I own Four Brothers? Trust me, I don't, casue if I did, Jack would have never ever, ever died.
It was a rarely seen warm day. During this time of year the temperature barely ever got above 50 degrees. But right now it was a stunning 68 degrees, and it was only 11:00 am.
Angel was of course out with Sofi, Jerry was at home with his girls, and Bobby…well god knows where he wandered off to last night. So that left Jack laying home alone with nothing to do. On any other day he would still be dead asleep sprawled out sleeping comfortably on his bed, but not today.
Growing up in this house, there was always something going on with someone. Where any other normal person would find constant commotion at all hours during the night annoying, he had grown accustomed to it and it actually put him straight to sleep. But since Bobby and Angel were both out all night he felt oddly uncomfortable with the quiet and hardly got any sleep at all.
So that brings him to where he is now, sprawled out on the couch mindlessly flipping through the channels. He didn't even notice the front door opening and someone walking in until the smacked him on the head.
"Hey…what…Bobby?" Jack questioned
"What's cracking Cracker Jack?" Bobby greeted
"Where were you all night?"
"What's it matter? Angel come home?"
"No, he was out all night just like you," Jack stated matter of factly.
"Oh, is that why the little fairy is so upset, he was all-alone all night," Bobby mocked.
"Shut up, I'm not upset, just curious."
"I met up with a friend and we went and got some drinks."
Jack didn't say anything and silence passed between the brothers.
"Well I aint sitting around all day so get your ass up Jackie," Bobby said walking over to the TV and switching it off.
"Where are we going?" Jack asked, getting up as well.
"I was thinking we'd go over to Jerry's, see the girls, then just see where the day takes us." Said Bobby all ready starting to walk out the door.
"Whatever," Jack responded walking out and following Bobby to his car.
"It's such a nice day I think I'll take the girls over to the park," Camille told the boys. Jack and Bobby had been there for about a hour.
"Okay babe, I'll get ready to go…" Jerry started but was interrupted by his wife.
"…No, go and spend some time with you r brothers."
"Yea, I was just thinking we'd go play some street hockey," Bobby informed the others.
"Sure, let me run upstairs and get my skates," Jerry said with a dorky smile on his face. Bobby and Jack just laughed at their brother. But he had every right to be excited, it had been a while since the brothers had done something together, and even longer since either of them have played hockey.
Bobby walked over to Camille, "Tell him we'll be out in the car," and Bobby and Jack walked outside after saying their goodbyes to the three ladies.
They got out of the car at the lot and Jack was just finishing off his cigarette. He fished around for another while Jerry and Bobby were talking.
"Angel said he'd be here in about twenty minutes." Jerry informed his brothers.
"Good, then we can play a real game instead of going easy on Jackie," Bobby joked.
At the sound of his name Jack looked up and his two older brothers.
"Huh?" he asked.
"Boy, what they hell are you doing?" Jerry questioned.
Jack didn't answer but instead, "I'm gonna get some smokes," and Jack started walking to the little store across the street from the lot.
Bobby yelled after him, "Damn kid needs to quit that habit of smoking!"
Without turning around Jack flipped off Bobby and continued walking to the store. Jerry laughed and started to unload their stuff from Bobby's car. The few moments passed in silence between the two oldest Mercers. Suddenly they heard the unmistakable sound of a gunshot, then a few seconds later another one. The two froze for a moment and stared at each other. They turned their heads to see two guys running out of the store across the lot.
"Jack," Bobby whispered.
So how was it? Did you like it? This is my first Four Brothers fic. Please review, but be nice.
