Wilde's Requiem
Gwing AU: ^^ Pay attention. One never really knows what the other is thinking but as siblings, we always do. It's complicated. If you don't have a brother or sister, tell your mom and dad to hook up with some Sade in the background. that's apparently why I have a little sister -_-;;

Tuesday Part Ten: Sisters are terrible!
Dressed, combed, and sitting down with an amazed look on his face. Or rather, Wufei Chang slept with his eyes open. // "I'm having a nightmare! I can't believe Sal thinks this is a date! How dare she have a crush on *my* teacher! What the hell am I saying? I have a crush on my teacher!" // Wufei shook his head, "Shit. I really need nap or something. I'm having a bad day." The boy slumped back on his bed, already mussing his neat ponytail. // "I need a hair cut. But if I cut it. I'll look like dad. Then Sally will act silly with the whole "you're so like him" cry thing and then-"//
Suddenly a small typhoon interrupted his thoughts. His older sister walked in, wearing a short blue skirt and long jacket. Hopping on one foot, the woman tried to fasten the strap of her high heels. "What are you doing! Wufei! Your hair! Comb it, you'll embarrass me! Up, up little man!" She hopped over and flung her foot up on Wufei's knee. "Be a dear and fasten that Fei-Fei." Wufei nodded slightly and saw his sister's shoe was maybe a size too small. "Sis, maybe you should change your foot ware. These are too- OW!" Rubbing his head, the boy looked up to his elder sister. "What was that for!" Sally sighed, "You'll learn when you're older Wufei." She sighed and fitted an earring to her right ear. "Sometimes I wonder if you're even interested in dating. You never go out with anyone but your friends. I wish you'd get out more."
**************************************
Wufei decided it would be a strategic advantage to be quiet and comply with simple nods until the evening was over. // "This is going to take forever. Bad events always feel like a lifetime." // He thought as his sister drove their red truck down a rather crowded street. "Look ahead Wufei. Something must have happened up there." Wufei nodded again and looked out the window. There was an ambulance and two police cars driving past them. Wufei sighed at the scene, "Must have been an accident." He rolled the windows and turned on the radio. With or Without You was playing.
Sally took a second to consider her little brother. After their mother and father were killed in a mugging, Wufei started to let his hair grow. Before hand, he liked it cut, despite his mother thinking he looked 'so adorable' with it long. // "I guess that's why he won't cut it." // Sally could feel her eyes wet, she was going to cry. Her sentiments had bad timing, she had just did her makeup!
Wufei looked over at his sister. // "She looks like she's going to explode. What the hell is wrong with her?" // Sally took a deep breath. "So you have your teacher's address?" Wufei nodded. He stared at the street scene again. // "Ma and Pa were killed right in the middle of a traffic jam, and no one came to help them." // Thoughts of the camera crews at his apartment and the inappropriate questions they asked right in front of his grieving sister, crashed down on him. He looked back at his sister. // "She must be sad about that accident up ahead. Poor Sal. She's so fragile, but she's taking care of me, going to college and holding down a great job. She's so brave. A perfect example of true womanhood. Now she's mourning for the poor souls up ahead of us. My sister's such a saint sometimes." //
Sally took out a handkerchief and tried dapping her eyes without smearing her eyeliner. In the mirror, her brother's sad reflection caught her eyes. // "Ahh. poor little thing. He's upset about that accident. He can be loud and stubborn, but the little thing is so sensitive. He cried after watching Titanic, too." // She took a moment to pat his head. "You okay baby brother?" Wufei raised an eyebrow. "Of course. How are you holding up?" Sally bit her lip and looked back into her mirror. "I'm fine. Knowing you're okay, means I'm okay." Wufei nodded, "Good. So you don't have to cry. It's okay." Sally could feel a torrent of emotions stemming from her little brother. // "Aw. He's so sweet." // She nodded as well, "Yes and neither do you Wufei."
Despite his sister's ESP, all Wufei was really feeling was confusion. "I'm not going to cry!" Sally put her mirror away. "It's okay to show your emotions, little man. You don't always have to cover everything. I'm right here for you." Wufei decided to return to his first plan. He simply nodded and looked the other way. // "Gee, she lost it." // Wufei rubbed his eyes, they were starting to sting. // "What! Oh her perfume! I remember, I'm allergic to it! That's the same kind she wore when she took me to see Titanic. I must have looked like was dying or something. She kept petting me and stuff. ah man! What if she starts that nonsense when we get there!" //
Now feeling very protective of her 'sensitive' younger sibling, Sally decided to do something for him. "Do you want go home. I could do the conference thing alone, okay." Wufei didn't believe what he was hearing, "What! Leave me!" Sally leaned over and hugged him, despite her seatbelt. "It's going to be okay. I'm not leaving you. You can just stay home and recover awhile. I can handle a little talk with your teachers on my own." Wufei pushed her aside. "No! I don't want you talking to my teacher alone! Treize is my favorite teacher! You'll embarrass me or something!"
Sally couldn't believe what she was hearing, "What do you mean embarrass you! There's nothing to embarrass you with! You never get out! You never do anything! You sit in your room waiting for your little boyfriends-" Wufei eyes went wide, "What did you say! My boyfriends! They're not my boyfriends! You don't care about me being gay anyway!" Sally gasped, "Okay first of all, little man, I didn't mean like dating boyfriends, just friends. Second of all, you've been gay since you were ten years old, so don't think I didn't notice!" Wufei shut his mouth. "Oh. Well whatever woman. The traffic is moving. Go before we have accident." He reserved himself to stare out the street concentrating on a frown and biting his lower lip.
// "Damn it," // thought Sally. // "Now he's going to be quiet for the rest of the ride there. and what was he talking about, 'you don't care'. Where on earth would he get the idea that I didn't care about him?" //
*********************************
The expected red vehicle finally rolled up into the parking lot. Treize let out a breath. They were half an hour late. // "I can tell Milliard to calm down about that food then. It's not going to waste after all. Not like I couldn't think of some interesting things to do with dessert, that is." // The smile on his face was well deserved.
