Chapter 3-Everything's missing

Walking home from Jay's shop, the young teens were close to the house when heard an angry scream coming from it. They ran as fast as they could to get inside to see what was going on. No sooner they got in the door they where almost pummeled by the rage of a 13 year old and a 9 year old.

"Give it back!" Nikki barely missed Derrick by the shirt when she grabbed his collar.

"I don't have it I told you that like, ten times already! What do I have to do to get you to believe me?" Derrick squirmed and turned suddenly when he heard his brother and acquaintance walk in.

"Well, for a second I thought you had run away! Where did you go this time? Your never home," Nikki said with a lot of attitude. Derrick just stared while Nikki waited for an answer.

"Um… I didn't run away, I was with Bri watching the volleyball game, and I am home…sometimes," Bradin said responding to everything Nikki said. "You know, I was enjoying the last day before school. I don't have to fight all the time with Bri to have fun. Speaking of which, what were you two fighting about?" Bradin crossed his arms in front of him and stared at the younger siblings, waiting for an answer.

"Derrick took my organizer that Johnny gave me and hid it somewhere!" Nikki gave the angriest look she could to Derrick.

"I did not, I looked at it and then put it back I didn't take it," Derrick said looking at Bradin as to say, ' help me out here!' and widened his eyes

"Oh, um Nikki I'm sure you just forgot where you put it did you look on your bed?" Brianna asked trying to help the best she could.

"Yes," Nikki said solemnly.

"How about under it?" Bradin cut in.

"Duh!" Nikki screamed.

"How about in your closet?" Bradin asked.

"Now why would I put it in my closet?!" Nikki questioned.

"I don't know, just a thought. I was just trying to help but I guess I'm not needed," he said giving up. He went over to the fridge and grabbed two cokes.

"Here. W-Wait, where are you going?" Bradin asked looking at Brianna as she headed up the steps.

"I'm going to try to help Nikki find her organizer," she looked down at Bradin. "God knows that ones life is complicated enough. Sometimes without the help of electronics, we're all screwed up. So I'm going to help her find it," she said and she followed Nikki to her room.

Bradin sat down on the couch, let out a puff, and set the two drinks on the coffee table. OK now what am I supposed to do? Hmmm. Derrick sat down next to him and stared.

"What!" He screamed and then Derrick jumped.

"Hey I was just wondering what you were thinking. Forgive me for staring," Derrick crossed his arms and looked away.

"Hey I'm sorry I think I'm just kind of aggravated," Bradin slouched in the seat a little.

"Why? Is it about Brianna?" Derrick turned on his side curious, and looked at Bradin as he spoke.

"Yes, but I really don't feel like talking about it so please just um…bug whoever is home. Wait, who is home?" Bradin asked trying to figure out who was supposed to be watching them considering they weren't doing a very good job.

"Um… Susanna, but she went in her room to do some pinning but she disappeared. I think she went in the garage. I'm surprised she didn't hear us fighting," Derrick shrugged and fell back, lounging on the couch looking up at the ceiling.

"Well, go bother her, "Bradin said. He needed space.

"I'm not sure she's in the garage though. I was guessing," Derrick complained. "Come on, lets go find her she might be in the garage now, she did say that she had to find some more pins," Derrick said and pulled Bradin off the couch and dragged him towards the garage.

Meanwhile in Nikki's room,

"AHA! Here it is! I knew I would find it in your closet! Just where Bradin said it might be. Now why don't you listen him?" She asked as she got off her knees and handed the electronic to Nikki.

"Derrick probably put it in there I could just scream with the damage he makes sometimes." Nikki said, crossing her arms.

Brianna giggled. "Well, he is your sibling and they are known for that. Fortunately, you have Bradin. You know you're lucky to have him, right?" She asked.

"Hey Bri?" Nikki asked trying to get her attention.

"Yeah?" Brianna replied. "

"Do you like my brother?" Nikki looked at her awkwardly. She was curious to know.

"Of course I do, I wouldn't hang with him if I didn't consider him a friend," Brianna said. She knew what Nikki was talking about but she acted dumb anyway. She was hoping Nikki would give up the subject.

"No, not like that, I mean…. as more than just a friend," Nikki said. She didn't think Brianna was that dense.

Still acting slow, "Oh," she pretended like she was shocked, "I don't know, I just thought of him as like a brother, I mean, he really knows me."

Nikki wasn't sure if she had to spell it out so, "I know that but that's not what I asked you, I asked you if you liked him as more than just a friend. I don't care if you think of him as your brother. Do you like him or not?!" Nikki yelled.

Oh how she wished she hadn't said that. Brianna didn't want to tell Nikki she liked Bradin because then she would have to admit it to herself, so she changed the subject. "Lets go down stairs to find Bradin and the rest, ok?" And she walked out of the attic. Nikki just huffed and followed after her.

Back in the garage,

"Just keep looking for them, they have to turn up somewhere," Susanna said. She was rummaging frantically through all kinds of boxes trying to find a certain cloth that went missing.

"Did you find it?" Susanna asked. Bradin stood up of the cement floor and looked around the room, his green eyes gleaming to see where it could possibly be.

"No I don't see it. How about you Derrick?" Bradin questioned. Derrick shook his head and turned to see two figures staring at them.

"What are you three looking for?" Brianna looked at Bradin and flashed a warm smile. Bradin smiled back.

"Something," Derrick started.

"That we are never going to find in here," Susanna chimed in, "Nikki, did you see your Aunt put a glittery piece of cloth anywhere? I can't find it." Susanna complained. Nikki thought for a moment and then simply waved her hand for Susanna to follow her.

"Wait I want to come!" Derrick said and ran after them.

Brianna giggled. "Lets go get that drink that you wanted to give me," then she walked towards the house.

Bradin started thinking about how much he liked Brianna and then realized that he would make a move. He thought for a moment and came up with nothing. He motioned to Brianna and started walking backwards to be able to look her in the face.

"So…" Bradin started. He couldn't think of anything to say.

"What is it?" She asked. Brianna stopped and looked in Bradin's eyes. Is he going to kiss me or not?

"Uh, nothing," Bradin slapped himself. Oh you Jack Ass! He sighed and went inside.

Ugg! Reminder to self: never let a boy make the first move! She ran past him to get in front of him. "Bradin, can I say something?" She couldn't hold it anymore. She moved closer to him.

"Um…sure," Bradin said confused. And before he could say another word she kissed him.

Well, Hehe I don't know but I definitely think this chapter is better. So I know my opinion, so now I want to know yours! So R&R and tell me what you think. Thanks for everything!
