Thank you all for the reviews. I'm glad to hear from you and to get to know that you're still reading! To thank you, I leave you this chapter. A brother-sister interaction chapter.
Jimmy tossed and turned on bed, clutching the eyes together. He groaned out annoyed for not sleeping. He kicked back the bed sheet and rubbed the face, sighing deeply. He laid face down, burying the face on the pillow and shrank the body. He turned over again, sitting on the edge of the bed. Jimmy groaned out again and put the feet on the cold wooden floor. He dragged his body to the kitchen and groped the furniture, for not having to light up the division. He opened a cupboard and grabbed a cup; then he opened the fridge and poured milk into the glass. Jimmy took the glass with him to the couch and sat there, drinking it. When he was done, he walked back to his bedroom but on the way he heard a whimper coming from his sister's bedroom.
"Joey?" He whispered, opening the door and peeking.
Johanna was sat on the bed, wiping away her tears quickly. Kate Beckett was too proud to have a presence light, and her daughter was proud too. She had a nightmare but didn't want her big brother to know about it.
"Joey, what's wrong?" He insisted, taking a seat next to her on bed.
"I had a bad dream." She confessed. "I'm scared Jay-Jay."
"It's okay, mei-mei." He replied, hugging his three-year-old sister.
"Can you tell me a story?"
"Uh, let's see…" He tapped the chin, thoughtful. "Can I make up one?" Johanna nodded and he got up from bed to allow her to lie down again and tucked the bed sheet to her. He sat on the edge of the bed again and Johanna was staring at him, sleepy. "Once upon a time, in a very far away land, there was a princess on a big, big castle. But the princess was trapped in there and she wanted to come outside and play in the gardens."
"Why was she trapped in there?" Johanna questioned on a mumble.
"You don't get to ask questions, this is my story! Anyway, she couldn't come out because a giant dragon was guarding the door, a sticky, enormous and disgusting green dragon. One day, a boy walked out the big castle and saw the little girl, alone and sad." By this time Johanna's eyes were blinking. "He wanted a friend to play with, so as she. So, the boy tried to make a deal with the dragon, but he didn't let the girl out. The boy, who was a prince from another kingdom, pulled out his sword and fired a laser against him. The dragon shrank to the size of a tiny lizard." Johanna's eyes were almost shut as she yawned one last time. Jimmy finished then the story, whispering. "The little girl left the castle and she and the boy played happily ever after in the big gardens." Jimmy leaned over his sister and on a sweet brotherly act put a kiss on her cheek and said. "The end…Good night, Joey."
Jimmy walked to his bed again and snuggled on the bed sheet and the blanket. With what he dreamt of? The little princess trapped in the big castle as Johanna and he as the prince from the other kingdom, rescuing her and playing with her. He awoke up frustrated by the morning because on his mind the story seemed a lot more vivid than how he told his sister. But he managed to tell her the story again, describing every single detail. What he really wanted was to let her know exactly how he had thought of the story. Johanna was impressed with the castle's description and grossed out with the dragon's appearance.
What mattered was that Jimmy told the story the way he pictured and on that day, he was the lovable brother, playing with her just like the prince and the princess did. Castle and Beckett were heart melted to see them playing along, because when they want, they can be pesky and mean to each other and their parents don't have a second of peace…which was going to happen just the next day. For today they kept playing and laughing around.
As many of you may know mei-mei its Mandarin for little sister.
I've got nothing else to say other than there are three more chapters to post. And to ask you to take two minutes of your time writing me a review.
