What happened ,asked Derek
I can't tell you you'll get mad at me, exclaimed Sarah
Derek took a step toward Sarah a still screaming Desi in his arms
What happened he growled
I was standing there and she was standing there and the next thing I know something happened and Desi is on the floor screaming and and and then-
Stop it! Sarah if you don't tell me what happened right now Derek shouted taking another step forward
Please don't scream at her said Reid his voice trembling as he stepped around Derek to shield the little girl
Normally if someone placed themselves in between Derek and one of his sisters he would go into defense mode but somehow this time felt different
Derek knew that Spencer was only trying to help but this was none of his business
I'm not going to ask you again said Derek scowling at his sister from behind Spencer
I wanted the Doritos and Desiree took them off the table and said they were hers so I pushed her down and took them from her
Why were you standing in the chair asked Spencer turning around slowly
Because Desi said that Derek would spank me
So you think the chair would save you Derek asked trying not to laugh
I don't know but you try to spank me I'll beat up your friend screamed Sarah as she kicked Spencer in the shin and sprinted up the stairs
That's it Derek exclaimed taking off after her
Shaking his head Spencer debated on whether or not to be an advocate for Sarah his leg was really starting to hurt and a purplish bruise had began to appear
Derek caught up to Sarah half way up the stairs
He grabbed the strap of her jumper and hoisted her up onto his shoulder
Desi still sniffling got up and walked to the stairs just as she was about to start climbing them she heard a door slam upstairs
Derek must have caught Sarah ,Desi thought she's gonna get it now she exclaimed as Spencer walked over and picked her up
Spencer sat down with Desi in his lap at the kitchen table he told her to cover her ears as he did the same
Put me down Der-ek! Screamed Sarah if you hit me I'll tell mom
Mama left me in charge and she told me to spank you if I needed to she also told you to obey me didn't she
Well if she knew you were so dumb she would have left me in charge screamed Sarah
That's it yelled Derek as he pulled Sarah down across his lap
Stop it Derek Sarah protested as she felt herself losing the battle to her brothers upper biceps
Derek pinned Sarah's arm to her side and began his lesson
Repeat after me I (smack)
Stop it Derek!
I (smack)
I
Sarah Denise Morgan (smack)
No Der-
(Smack)
Sarah Denise Morgan
Promise (smack)
Ouch Derek it hurts Sarah cried as tears began forming in her eyes
(smack)
P-Promise
To keep (smack)
T-T-To K-Keep
My hands (smack) Feet (smack) and ugly comments(smack) to myself (smack)
My h-hands feet and stupid words-(smack)
I said ugly comments
Ok. Ok. Ugly comments to myself
Good (smack) Derek landed one last lick to Sarah's bottom as he lifted her up and sat her in his lap
He received no protest from her as she wrapped her small fists in his shirt to pull herself closer to him
Derek rubbed small cirles on Sarahs back until her sobs stopped
Now you want to tell me what that was really about Sarah
You don't even like Doritos
You're always holding Desi Derek
You use to always hold me and let me ride your back
I still do Sar-
But not all the time you say Desi is the baby and I'm a big girl but I don't want to be a big girl Derek
Derek could feel Sarah shiver as the tears began to fall again
Sarah you're still my baby sister and I'll always love you
But Desi is smaller than you she looks up to you
She see's you riding without training wheels and she wants to do it
Desi sees you going to second grade and she tells all her kindergarten friends that's my big sister
She is so proud of you and I want to be too but you have to show me the Sarah I know you can be
Ok. Derek I want to go tell Desi that I'm sorry
That's my Sarah Derek said picking her up and putting her on his back
