The request is from

SPOILERS: Human Eddy

Chase's POV

I had just gotten the best job in the world and 'defeated' Adam! I couldn't be happier! Well, except that my stupid older brother wanted to take my job away from me.
As soon as the president and his companions had left the room, I turned to Adam with a wide grin on my face: "Did you really think you were gonna steal that job away from me?"
"Nope", he answered calmly "I just didn't want you to get it"
"Yeah, 'cause you're jealous!", I scoffed.
"I'm not", Adam responded.
"Yes, you are!"
"No, I'm not!"
"Yes, you are! Look at you! You're so jealous and you can't even admit it!" he was really getting on my nerves now!

"Okay, do you wanna know the real reason why I didn't want you to get the job?", he asked, sounding a little angry.
"Go ahead, this should be real good!", I replied, a little angry myself.
"Because I didn't want you to leave!", Adam said, poking my chest with his finger.
My head went blank, I just didn't understand what I had just heard: "…Wait… THAT was what this was all about?"
"Yeah", Adam sighed "But you know what, it doesn't even matter anymore…."
Me, the smartest guy in the world, didn't have a reply to that. I just stood there, opening and closing my mouth, hoping for the right words to come. But nothing came…
Adam took a deep breath and looked at me: "Good luck, Chase."
After that, he walked out of the room, leaving me alone with my thoughts. Or rather, with my lack of thoughts.

I sat down on the steps in the training area and just stared at the floor for a moment, trying to come up with something that could fix all of this.
After a couple of minutes, I heard mr. Davenport and Douglas approaching.
"I'm telling you, Don, it's not illegal!", Douglas tried to explain.
"Yes, it is! You're trying to track the students without them knowing it!", mr. Davenport countered.
"You said it yourself: I haven't succeeded yet and they'll never know!", Douglas replied with a grin.
Mr. Davenport sighed when he suddenly saw me: "Chase! How did it go?"
"Well, I got the job", I said with the biggest smile I could muster at that moment.
"Yes! Yes! Yes! That's awesome! I've got to go and spread the word!", he said while jumping up and down like a little kid.
"To whom?", I asked, genuinely confused.
"Everyone!", he answered. After that he ran out of the room while yelling: "My son is gonna work for the president!"

I rolled my eyes before I realised Douglas was still standing in front of me and hadn't said a word.
"Can I help you?", I asked, slightly irritated.
"I think the question is: can I help you?", he answered, sitting down next to me.
I sighed: "I don't think so… I messed up, Douglas. Big time!"
"How bad can it be?", Douglas asked, shrugging his shoulders.
"I thought Adam wanted to take my job away so I was acting like a total jerk. But when I had gotten the job, he told me he tried to boycott me because he didn't want me to leave", I explained, feeling even worse than before.
"Auch… That IS bad!", Douglas replied.
I sighed and put my head in my hands: "I know…"

Suddenly, Douglas put his hand on my back and started to rub circles: "It'll be alright. You're brothers. There's nothing that can change that kind of biological bond. Believe me, I did a lot of research when I was your age!"
Despite everything, I chuckled slightly and sat back up.
Douglas smiled and put his hand on my shoulder: "Hey, if Don could forgive me for everything I did to all of you, I'm sure you'll be able to fix things between you and Adam."
"But how?", I asked, honestly having no idea whatsoever.
"That's something you have to find out on your own, Chase", he replied as he stood back up "Now, if you'll excuse me: I'm gonna hide my research for Donnie."
"But I thought he found out about the tracking of the students?", I asked with a small grin.
"Yes, he did", Douglas answered "And I want to make sure that's the only thing he'll find!"
I laughed a little as Douglas ran back to the lab before standing up and walking around a little bit, hoping it would clear my mind.

When I reached my 'bedroom', I found mr. Davenport on our couch calling.
"Really, Tasha! He really got it! My son is gonna work for the president!". When he saw me he quickly ended his phonecall: "Tasha, I've gotta go. Love you, honey!"
Then, he motioned for me to sit next to him: "There's my boy! How does it feel to have such an amazing job?"
"Good, I guess", I answered as I sat down next to him.
Mr. Davenport frowned when he heard that: "That's not what I expected… Does this have to do with Adam?"
"How do you know?", I asked surprised.
"I saw Adam walking around earlier, looking quite down.", he replied "He said everything was okay, but he didn't even want to play with Bob."
I let myself fall back with a groan.
"What did he do this time?", mr. Davenport asked, looking ready to jump up and go punish Adam.
"He didn't do anything", I answered "This time, it's my fault".

Once again, I explained everything. When I finished my story, I glanced at mr. Davenport.
"Well…", Mr. Davenport said "That's not good."
"That's all you can say?", I asked "Can't you just tell me what to do?"
"That's something you have to find out on your own, Chase", mr. Davenport said.
I groaned: "Sometimes, you sound just like Douglas…"
"You know, that's not as big as an insult as you think it is", he replied.
I gave him a small smile in reply.
"Now, I've got to go", mr. Davenport said as he stood up from the couch "I've got a class in five minutes".

Once he had left, I let my thoughts wander off to when it was just Adam, Bree and me in the lab.
No worries, no major problems, no fights…
Although, we DID have some pretty bad fights. Like when we were just little children…

And that's a wrap for chapter one!
A lovely cliffhanger for you and a lot of thanks for reading!
You're the best! :D
