Where my pretty one lies.. Part 56

Dream



Dog House Silver Lake 7 A.M.

"Is she always like this," asks Jason fascinated. 'No sometimes she is an Angel, just not today.' He watches her continue to hit Icky on the face, until she gets up and walks over to Junior.

"Please don't," pleads Junior "Faith I'm tired." Pouting her lips start to quiver she looks like she is going to start crying any second.

"Hi Faith," says Jason "My name is Jason. Do you remember me?" Running up to Jason, Faith grips him in a tight hug and starts to swing back and forth. "I guess she does."

"Faith leave Junior alone," shouts Tracer from outside the room.

"NO," shrieks Faith.

"Oh, go harass your brother," snaps Tracer.

"I am," shouts Faith as she continues to hold Jason.

"What," whispers Jarod.

"I am harassing my brother," relays Faith staring at Jarod "Daddy in *lots* of trouble."

"That's right Faith," snickers Icky "Daddy in lots of trouble."

"All right boys," snaps Kylie as she enters the room "up and atom." Snapping her fingers "Now!" she shouts.

"Back off," snaps Jarod. Kylie's eyes narrow dangerously at him.

"I wouldn't say things like that to Kylie," suggest Jason "dad, Block just might kill you."

"It's not Block you need to watch out for," grumbles Junior "It's Kylie herself. And yes before you ask she can and will hurt you, kill you no."

"Yeah right," growls Jarod.

"Maybe Uncle Jarod needs a demo," growls Kylie as the rug that Jarod was standing on gets pulled out from under him. Landing on his bottom Jarod stares at her in shock.

"How," wonders Ethan as he points to Jarod.

"It's called telekinesis," smirks Kylie "and before you start your shit with anyone Uncle Jarod I would get your facts straight."

"Kylie," growls Junior as he sniffs the air around him "Who is in my kitchen?"

"That would be Margaret," replies Kylie as Junior jumps up and rushes out of the room with Kylie close on his tail. Listening for a few moments before they could hear Junior yelling "Out of my kitchen Woman." Loud clanking noises then "Out I say, move it woman."

Laughing Faith lets go of Jason "Passive of kitchen," giggling she runs out of the room. Then a loud shriek from Junior "Faith!"

"Damn it," growls Icky "I just wanted to sleep" as he gets up and walks toward the door.

"Hey," yells Jason "wait for me," as he gets up. Major Charles and Ethan are already standing up ready to fallow the boy out the door.

"Jarod," questions Ethan "are you coming."

"No," grumbles Jarod.

"He's sulking Ethan," snaps Icky "leave him." Turning on his heel Icky walks out of the room leaving behind only Jarod and Kyle. Looking at his brother still sitting on the floor where he landed.

"You know my daughter is right," states Kyle "you really should start anything unless you're straight on your facts."

"I know," groans Jarod "I just wish I know what those facts were."

"Well," states Mouse as she walks into the room "you'll never find out if you stay in this room." Picking up a picture she hands it over to Jarod "But you can start here."

Looking over the picture Jarod easily spots Miss Parker with his arms wrapped around her, both of them are smiling into the camera. Her long hair spills over onto his shoulder 'just like my dream.'
