Disclaimer: I own none, only Casey. I may not even own the plot which may be owned by Ivorycat (read her stories, they're good!). She also may be writing for this, so look out for her input. Joss, the insane god he is, owns the whole cast of characters you see, save again, for Casey, she is mine.
Attention: Look, there will be talk of, if not seen, cases of child abuse from Holtz. This happens because in my time line, Holtz took much of his anger out on Casey, and some out on Connor. But Connor was the favorite child of the two. More about that later. There also may be instance of corporal punishment. I would like to inform people that child abuse and corporal punishment are two different things. Corporal punishment will only happen when there is need for it to happen, and it will always be done in a loving environment.
Author's Note: I am going to try and put my teenage characters though what normal teenagers go through. That may be bad grades, idiot teachers, sexual harassment, drugs, alcohol, and that such. Some may be embellished a little, but guess what? If they are, that's because I have yet to experience them in my high school. Now don't say that I make this some kind of soap opera, because quite frankly, life is one.
Summery: When does sibling rivalry go too far? Or never far enough?
Chapter Seven: Sibling Rivalry?
Connor gritted his teeth as yet another song started from his sister's room. Finally he couldn't take it anymore. Throwing down his pen that he had been using to do his math, he stalked through the hallway and into Casey's room. He found her sleeping. Damn her. She thought she was perfect, and it sickened him.
Mid-quarter reports came out last week and she had gotten A, B, B+, A-, A+, A. And it's not like she even worked for the grades. She comes home, eats, and then talks on the phone. Besides that, she usually went out after eight anyway. He never saw her actually study, and that pissed him off. He had gotten C, C+, B-, A, D, D+. The only reason he was getting an A at all was because of gym, the only class he was good at.
Walking over to where her radio was, Connor switched it off. Maybe he could now do his work, if not, that would be the last time people would be hearing about or from him in a while.
"I was listening to that you know," Casey's voice came from behind him.
"No you weren't," Connor turned around and faced his sister.
"Yeah I was. I was trying to meditate. So thanks for interrupting me. Be a good little boy and turn it back on, will you?" Casey's eyes narrowed.
Connor's eyes narrowed as well. "Bull. I'm trying to do homework. So I guess that overrides that now, huh?"
Casey rolled her eyes as she stood up. "Your story breaks my hear, it really does. But guess what, you're not only full of it, but you're also full of yourself."
Connor looked at her, "I'm full of myself?" he laughed, "Take a look in the mirror. You aren't little Miss Perfect. You're the one who's full of herself."
Casey flipped him off. "Bite me Juvie," she sneered.
Before she could react, Connor stepped over to her and lifted her arm to his mouth. And he bit her, hard.
"Oh my fucking god!" Casey screamed, and kept screaming until a pretty large crowd had formed in her room.
"Chill cupcake. All that screaming's hurting my ears," Lorne said, covering the aforementioned body part.
Casey calmed down enough so she wasn't hyperventilating, but she was still pretty shook up. "He bit me," she sputtered.
"What?" Angel's eyes narrowed as he looked at Connor, who didn't meet his eyes.
"Connor bit me," Casey repeated.
Angel sighed and rubbed his face. Who knew that fatherhood was this difficult? He was a little late in having a mid-life crisis, after all he was dead. "Okay guys, I think I can handle it from here." The other nodded and they filed out, leaving Angel with his two teenager children. "Okay, tell me what happened," Angel asked.
By this time Connor was curing himself. He should have gotten out when he had the chance. If he tried to bail out now, either through the door or the window, his father would have him over his knew before he took his second step.
"And that's when he bit me," Casey sobbed. Connor rolled his eyes. She was such a brown-noser. Besides it was not like he had bit her that hard. He hadn't even drawn blood, well at least not much of it.
"I guess I should stick up for myself. I was trying to do homework. I couldn't do that because I couldn't concentrated because I could hear her music. So I came in, and she was sleeping, so I turned it off," Connor shrugged.
"But you bit her," Angel put in. He couldn't even understand where that part came in.
"She told me to, so I did," Connor shrugged again, he hadn't done anything wrong.
"Connor come with me," Angel finally said after a few moments.
Connor looked up. What? This was not how it was supposed to turn out. Connor turned and looked at his sister, 'Have fun' she mouthed, sneering. Connor just flipped her off and followed his father.
As they walked into Connor's room Angel looked at his son. "Sit," he ordered.
Connor sat, but looked at his father, "I'm not a dog you know."
Angel just glared at his son, "Then stop acting like one!"
Author's Note 2: Okay people, who hate me now? I know, a slight cliffhanger, but you'll all deal, right? So who wants to give me ideas? After the next chapter, I have no more ideas, except for one, which I really don't like. Oh yeah, who hates Casey yet?
