Chapter 3: Lies

Andrew goes to the skatpark and sees Brian.

"Hey, Brian!" Andrew yelled to him as he saw him.

"Oh, shit." Brian said to Danny as he saw Andrew.

"Look it's your best friend Andrew Murtaugh." Danny said to him sarcastically.

"I really don't need your sarcasism at this moment Danny." Brian said to him.

Brian tried to act like he didn't see Andrew. And skates off. Andrew walks up to Danny.

"What's up Danny?" Andrew asked him.

"Nothing much. How about you?" Danny asked him.

"Why is Brian skating away from me?" Andrew asked Danny quickly changing the subject.

"I guess he didn't hear you." Danny told him.

"I'll try it again. Hey Brian!" Andrew yelled trying to get Brian's attention.

Brian looks at Andrew and Danny as they are waving him over. Brian skates over to them.

"Hey, Andrew." Brian said to him.

"What's up Dude?" Andrew asked him.

"Nothing much." Brian said to him.

"Come on Brian it's been four years since we last seen each other. Something happened especailly with your dad." Andrew said to him.

"Nothing really. You know, same old same old. My dad blowing stuff up, me and him arguing over me skateboarding. And him and my Aunt Sarah are still arguing as usual." Brian explained to him.

"That's it. There has to be more." Andrew said to him.

"Not really. How are things with you?" Brian asked him.

"Hey look there's Chad Hinders." Andrew said to him as he walked away from Brian and Danny.

Brian and Danny just look at each other.

"That was weird." Danny said to Brian.

"Yeah, he didn't try to rub it in my face that he beat me in the skateboard competiton." Brian told him as he and Danny went back to their cabin.

"He wouldn't say that to you." Danny told him.

"Yes he would and he did." Brian then told him.

"When?" Danny asked him crossing his arms waiting for Brian to lie.

"The last time we were here." Brian lied.

"That's a load of crap and you know it." Danny told him.

"It's true Danny." Brian told him.

"Where was I then?" Danny then asked Brian.

"He said to me when me and him were by ourselves after the competiton four years ago." Brian lied again.

"And our Dad is the most serious Dad in the world." Danny then told him sarcastically.

"So, you believe me?" Brian then asked him.

"I was joking. I know Andrew wouldn't do that. Maybe you would but, he wouldn't." Danny told him.

"Don't believe me then. See what I care." Brian told him.

"You do care." Danny then told him.

"Why would I care what you think?" Brian then asked him.

"Because I'm your older brother. Plus I know deep down inside you want to be just like me." Danny told him with a laugh.

"Shut up. I don't want to be like you." Brian told him.

They get back to their cabin. They walk in.

"Great you guys are finally back. Go get changed." Lorraine told them.

"Changed for what?" Brian asked her.

"Elliot invited us to the Boulders for dinner tonight." Lorraine explained.

"I don't think I feel that well. I feel like I'm about to puke." Brian said to her.

"What's wrong is it your stomach?" Lorraine asked him.

"I think it is." Brian replied holding his stomach.

"If you're not feeling well you can stay here tonight." Lorraine said to him.

"Really. I mean if you think that's best." Brian said to her.

Brian goes to his room to lie down on his bed.

"What's wrong with Brian?" Vinny asked Lorraine as he saw Brian go past up the stairs.

"He's sick. So, he isn't coming." Lorraine told him.

"In that case. I'm sick too." Vinny told her.

"Nice try Vinny. You're going wheter you like it or not." Lorraine told him.

"Fine but, after we get back I better get rewarded for going if you know what I mean." Vinny said to her.

"Okay. I'll tell Sarah not to come over here right away." Lorraine told him.

"That's not what I had in mind. Wait a minute. I meant the other reward." Vinny said to her as they walked out the door.
