A/N: I'm writing this in school instead of doing my homework…I wonder if I'll get extra credit in writing for this….
Disclaimer: Me? Own Len and Rin and all the other Volcaloids? I wish!
Chapter 1
Now
"Give it back!" Rin yelled at her brother, chasing him to get the book in his hands. Len smiled wider and ran faster.
"Never!" he yelled back. He opened the book to a random page and started reading it out loud. "'Dear Diary'," he said in a girly voice, "'today I finally won the spelling bee. Take THAT Kiko! Booyaa!'" He tried to contain his laughter as his sister turned beet red.
"Len! You JERK!" She screamed at him. She had caught up to him and tackled him, trying to grab the diary. Len kept it just out of her reach. "Give. It. Back! NOW." She gave him a threatening glare. Len laughed at her glare. "What're you laughing at?" Rin shouted.
"You're glare! It's funny!" It was then that their mother decided to come in, looking both pissed and annoyed at the same time.
"Knock it off you two! Don't you have homework?" she asked the fighting twins.
"Ma, it's winter break," Len told his mother. Rin took this chance to steal her diary back and run. "Rin! I was reading that!" he called after her.
"That is WHY I took it back!" she said over her shoulder. She ran into their room and slammed the door shut. Len watched from down the hall as she did this. He shook his head.
"She's such an over-reactor," he said and stood up from lying on the floor.

Rin POV
I yawned and stretched out my limbs, settling comfortably onto the couch. Len sat on the floor in front of me. He was watching what was on the TV with intensity.
"Whatcha watching Lenny-boy?" I asked, using the nickname Mom gave him when we were little. He turned to me with an irritated expression.
"Only Ma can call me that. And, to answer your question, I'm watching Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer," he said and turned back around. I rolled over onto my stomach and buried my face in my arms. "It's almost Christmas, you know," he said.
"Yea, I know," I told him, not really wanting to talk at the moment. Sleep sounded better.
"Did you get your shopping done?" he asked. I could tell he was trying to get me to tell him what he got for Christmas. I just nodded and tried to sleep. "So, what did you—"
"I'm not going to tell you. So don't even try," I told him. "Now shh…I'm trying to sleep…" I said and closed my eyes again. My hazel eyes. I always found it really weird how no one in the family but me had hazel eyes. Everyone else's eyes were blue. Even Len's eyes. I felt something warm and fuzzy be placed over me. I opened one eye enough to see that Len had put a blanket over me. I smiled to myself.
"Hey, where's Mom?" I asked, almost asleep.
"Out," Len replied. I nodded slightly before drifting off.

Len POV
You'll go down in ! The people in the TV sang the last lines of the movie. I yawned and looked over at Rin. She was out cold. Mom would kill her if she found her on the couch. I sat up and walked over to her. I put my arms under the crook of her legs and behind her back and lifted.
"Good God, Rin. You're heavier than I thought!" I mumbled and struggled to carry her to the room. When I got to the room, the door was closed. "Crap," I sighed and used my foot to open it. Getting her through the doorway without hitting her head was a whole new problem and it wasn't solved easily. I carried her over to the bed (Yes, they share a bed. Don't ask why…)and set her down. I noticed she was already in her PJs. That's good, otherwise she would have had to sleep in her clothes. I changed into my PJs and climbed in on the other side of the bed. I pulled the blankets over Rin and I and I fell asleep.
A/N: Good? Not good? I can't tell... *shrugs* R&R please ^/_\^ (Hehe, I stole your smiley Jackie!)
