A/N : This is just a little thing I came up with after thinking long and hard about how Ian dealt with Natalie 24/7. Hope you enjoy.
Disclaimer: Me: Ned do the disclaimer now!
Ned: No I'm not even in the story!
Me: If you don't you sure won't be in any of my stories. ( evil laugh )
Ned: Okay fine " Candysweetstories doesn't own 39 clues or Prada" there happy now?
Me: For now ( Hahahah...)
"I can't believe were actually going to visit them for a whole week!" whined Natalie. "Think about it Ian, we could be in France right now doing our Christmas shopping under the bright lights of the Effile Tower!" she continued " But nooooo you had to agree with Fiske and ruin my Christmas by taking me to stay with those color blind orphans."

Ian loved his sister dearly but sometimes she just got on his nerves with her continuous whining. " Natalie well you shut up already! I had no choice but then to come here and I was not going to leave you behind for the vespers to torture." I yelled in a voice dipped with poison. As soon as I mentioned the vespers she shut up and shrunk away. I felt bad for reminding her of the cruel time she spent as a hostage in the vespers clutch, so I said in a soft soothing voice, "Natalie I didn't mean to make things hard for you but I just want to do what's right for us ,for you. Now that mother and father are out of the picture the only family we have are the Cahill's. They will help us and have helped us so we need to show we appreciate and respect them by going to the events, reunions and gatherings we are invited to. " As soon as I concluded my little speech I surveyed Natalie's face carefully. She was staring at me eyes widened, her amber had a dark tint to it which told me she was focusing on a thought with immense concentration.
NATALIE
While Ian made his speech he trembled his eyes flooded with emotion. I had never seen my brother like that ever before. It was obvious that handling our finances, Lucain branch, his own life, and me had really put quiet a bit of stress on Ian. I knew he didn't mean to refer back to the vesper 'incident' it was just because he was worried. But now days that's all that Ian seems to do worry about this and worry about that. Then a thought occurred, I should be supporting my brother not giving him more stress. A wave compassion hit me, I looked at my brother and I realized he's doing all this so we could have a better life and so I can buy Prada purses everyday. Cheered up by this thought I waited for Ian to finish his speech.

After a minute of silence Natalie lunged into my lap and gave me a warm embrace. " I'm sorry Ian I didn't mean to make things harder for you it's just that I haven't wrapped my head around all this change." She said between sobs " I didn't realize that you were doing this just for me so I could have a better life." She managed to choke out in the end. I cradled my little sister in my arms and kissed her on the head before I said, " You don't need to worry about anything. It's just that I have to work harder than before and I would really appreciate it if you played along without complaining". "Oh and you might want to stop crying you'll smudge your makeup." I added. Realizing I was right she jumped off my lap and into her makeup bag.
- THE END
