Four Brothers And A Sister

Disclaimer: If I owned, these guys, do you think I would be here? I only own, Sarah and those random people.
A/N: Here's the next chapter!
I woke up with a headache. I got out of my bed and went to the bathroom. I grabbed some asprin and took it without water. I then went back to my room and got dressed in, jeans, a long seleve tee-shirt that said "I'm not a daddy's girl. I'm my brother's girl" and slipped my shoes on.
After clipping on my chain wallet, I went downstairs. I walked past Bobby, who was having his cuts cleaned by Sofi. I walked in the kitchen where Angel was.
"Hey, Ang." I said grabbed me a bottle of orange juice. I popped the top and took a sallow.
"Oh, uh hey, Sarah." Angel said.
I gave him a look. He was acting weird. "Ang, are you okay? You're acting weird." I said.
"I'm fine, Sarah." Angel said. I could tell he was lying.
"Whatever." I said. I walked back into the dining room and sat in my seat.
"Hey, Bobby. Hey Sofi."I said.
"Hey, chica." Sofi said.
"Oh, uh hey, Sarah." Bobby said acting weird. He then hissed when Sofi put a little pressure on one of his cuts.
"You're such a pussy, Bobby." Sofi said.
"Give me a break, will you?" Bobby asked.
"It should be against the law for people to keep dogs where someone like you can get to them." Sofi said.
I chuckled and shook my head. I then, wrinced. Shaking my head, hurt! I them remembered what happened last night.
The car chase and telling Sofi about my past and her telling my brothers. Oh, God. No, wonder Bobby and Angel acted weird.
"Hey, y'all! Police in the house!" Angel hollered to us.
"Get me something to cover my arm." Bobby said. He was talking to me or Sofi, but I don't know which.
"Yeah, yeah." Sofi said, standing up to get him something to cover Bobby's arm.
"Shit. Hurry up." Bobby said. I smacked Bobby hard on his arm.
"Ow! What was that for?" Bobby asked, looking at me.
"You and Angel are acting weird because of what Sofi told you, about my past." I said, standing up and walking into the living room. I sat in the chair, by the fire place.
"Angel. Mind if we come in?" I heard Green ask.
"You're already in. Cops are always welcome at the Mercers. It makes us feel safe and cozy. Just the way we like it." Angel said, walking to the living room.
Sofi brought Bobby, Mom's robe. Bobby seemed to be ready to argue, but then he put it on and tied it up and sat down on the couch.
Angel, Green and Flower came in a second later.
"Wooo. Ain't you sexy." Green said, as he and Fowler walked into the living room.
I looked up, from my seat and meet Fowler's eyes.
I gave him a look of disgust and rolled my eyes. I then looked over at Bobby.
"Thank you." Bobby said, standing up and walking over to stand in front of the cops. Angel sat down on the couch. "Jackie wanted this little number for himself, but I fought him for it."
"Bobby, Jack wouldn't be tacky enough to wear that." I said.
"Shuttap." Bobby said, giving me a look.
"What happened to the hand? Did you happen to forget our little conversation we had at your brother's house about interfering with our investigation?" Green asked.
I saw Sofi and Jack standing by the doorway, watching what was happening.
"Oh, so y'all actually do work to stop bad guys now?" I asked sarcastically.
"Oh, no, no. This is Turkey Cup, man. Hockey." Bobby said. "An old Mercer family tradition. You remember that, don't you, Green? You played hockey. Guys can be pretty rough out on that ice."
"Where's your car, Bobby?" Green asked.
Oh, shit, I thought.
"It's not outside." Green contuined.
"We left it at Jeremiah's." Sofi said from the door way.
"Yeah. Jerry drove us home. You know, Volvos are one of the safest cars out there. Volvos are incredible, man, when it's a blizzard outside. So we--" Angel said, but got cut off by Fowler.
Go and lay it on thick, why don't ya, Ang? I thought.
"Fascinating." Fowler said. "Hey, Gretzky, you know what this is?"
"A hair from your wife's tit?" Bobby asked.
I snorted and shook my head. Woo, we're a crazy bunch aren't we?
"Try from your thick skull." Fowler said. "Forensics took it off a pair of contract killers we found dead this morning.
" (Cough) phony (cough)." I said, coughing.
"Fishing for a confession with a phony hair, huh? That's an old one, boys. Come on, Green." Bobby said, going to sit back down on the couch. "You know when I'll know you got my hair off a dead body, right? When I hear the jailhouse doors close behind me, girls."
"Okay, then you tell me what they told you. You think that these thugs were hired to kill Evelyn, is that it?" Green asked.
"I have no idea what you're talking about, Green." Bobby said.
"And I could care less what the fuck you saying." I said, standing up and started over to Jack and Sofi so I could head upstairs to go to my room.
"Hey, Sarah, did you get that in hockey too?" Fowler asked.
"What the fuck you talking about, Flower?" I asked, looking at him.
He pointed at my head. I raised my hand and at the very start of my hairline was a cut on my head, most likely from hitting my head on the window. I looked at my fingers, that had some blood on them.
"Shit, I forgot I hit my head. I took a nap and all that shit." I lied.
"Maybe the hair is from her think skull." Fowler said to Green.
"It isn't her hair." Bobby said.
I nodded my head. "It isn't from me, ladies." I said. I then walked over and sat in the chair by the computer table.
"Wait, Green, how do you go from petty thug to contract killer? And if they were professional shooters, like you say, they'd have never told us who they was working with anyway." Angel said. "Even if they got one hell of an ass-whupping."
"You think you're pretty cute don't you? He does. Everybody's a smar guy untill I bust them in the mouth." Fowler said, heading to Angel.
"Wait!" Green said.
"You gonna bust me in my mouth?" Angel asked, standing up.
Sofi got in between Fowler and Angel and I stood behind Angel, ready to hold him back or help him. Jack stood behind Sofi, ready to help.
"This ain't what I'm here for!" Green said, trying to get in between Fowler and Angel.
"The fuck you think this is?" Angel asked.
"Hey, stop!" Green said, getting in between Fowler and Angel. He then looked at Bobby. "Look, Bobby, if you got something, you give it to me. And if it's something vital, we will run with this. But don't try and take on Detroit by your damn self. You keep knocking on the devil's door long enough, and sooner or later, somebody gonna answer you."
"Well, let them go ahead and answer, Green. We'll be waiting." I said.
Green and Fowler didn't say anything. They left and that was it.
While, Bobby went and got dressed, Sofi cleaned my cut for me and put a small band-aid on it.
"What bastard hired these guys?" Bobby asked from the couch. Him and Angel were sitting on it, next to each other. "West Marine's by the river, right?"
"Yeah." Angel said.
"Come on. Let's go take a look." Bobby said, standing up.
"All right." Angel said, also standing up.
I got up from where I had been sitting in the chair by the fire place. Angel headed to the door way, but Sofi blocked him.
"Baby." Angel said.
"Now, sweetie, wasn't there a discussion about a dinner together?" Sofi asked. "Because I seem to remember spending two hours in the kitchen."
I was standing next to Jack, and had the wall on my other side.
"We got some important shit to deal with, baby." Angel said.
"She's so La Vida Loca." Bobby said.
"Man, don't do that right now." Angel said.
"Shut up, Bobby. Don't start with that crap!" Sofi said.
"Can y'all not go there?" Angel asked.
"That's why you don't get a girlfriend." Sofi said.
"Don't go there, please." Angel said.
"You know what? I want a girlfriend like you." Bobby said. "Can we go?"
"Angel. You said this time was gonna be different." Sofi said.
"Ai mommy. You're breaking mi corazon." Bobby said. (A/N:I am pretty sure corazon means "plate" in spanish, so if I'm wrong can y'all tell me? Thanks!) Sofi walked out of the room and headed toward the kitchen.
"Bobby, do you even know what you said?" I asked, but he didn't answer.
"She's getting real comfortable here, huh? What are you doing? I thought you was a macho man. A tough guy. You know, its a real shame that little Jackie and little Sarah's the only ones down to ride." Bobby said.
"Little? I ain't little." I mumbled.
"Let's go, Jackie, Sarah." Bobby said. "Say goodbye to your big sister, guys. Let's go."
"You gonna leave me too? I just need 15 minutes, man." Angel said.
"She's addicted to what Angel's dick did." Jack said as he walked out.
"Quit!" Bobby said, walking out the door, to the car.
I was laughing at what Jack said. "Funny." I said.
We all got in the car, well Mom's car. I was in the back again.
"Why do I have to sit in the back?" I asked.
"Because the youngest sit in the back." Bobby said.
"You know, when I get a car, I'm going to say, "The oldest sit in the back", you know, that right?" I asked.
"Yeah, yeah." Bobby said.
"Hey, Bobby, do you even know what you said to Sofi? You said she was breaking your "plate" not your heart." I said.
Jack chuckled. "You need spanish lessons." Jack teased Bobby.
"Shut the fuck up, Jack." Bobby said.
"You do, Bobby." I said.
"You shut up or else I'm taking you back to the house to listen to Angel and Sofi." Bobby said.
"I'll be good." I said, quickly. I did NOT want to go back there.
"I thought so." Bobby said.
The ride to the killer's apartment, was kind of quiet from then on.
"Check everything, you guys. There's gotta be some shit around here that ties these guys to somebody else." Bobby said.
Me and Jack searched the living room and Bobby took the bed room.
I looked at the cds and saw a few Angel, Jerry and Bobby might like. I held on to them.
"What you got there?" Jack asked, me.
"Cds." I answered.
Jack nodded and picked up a camera.
"You dicking around in here? You find anything?" Bobby asked, walking back into the living room, his duffel bag full of something.
"A camera." Jack said.
"Cds." I said. I went to a closet and opened it. Out jumped something at my arms. "Shit!"
The cds fell to the floor as I tried to get it off of me. I was able to finaly knock it down from my arm and saw it was a cat. It hissed and took off. "Damn." I muttered. I rubbed gingerly at my arm. I looked at Bobby and Jack. "Don't say a word." I said.
"Come on." Bobby said, not saying a word, which surprised me.
I grabbed the cds and followed, Bobby and Jack out of the apartment. We walked out of the building like nothing was going on and got in the car and headed home.
