"Ear plugs, check. Sock for the mouth, check. Headphones to listen to something good, check." Davis said as he was looking over some things he might need. As he was going over this stuff, Miley came into his room.
"Is that all that stuff really necessary?" Miley said. "Your big sister is coming for a visit. You should be glad to see her."
"You don't seem to remember how Jun can be." Davis said. "Wouldn't you be doing something similar if it was Jackson instead of Jun?"
"Point taken." Miley said. "Still, it will be great to see your sister again for the weekend. I actually need some sort of girl to hang with since I'm surrounded by all these boys." Davis would have been offended by that, but he heard his phone go off.
"Red alert. Jun's coming up right now." Davis said and raced over to his closet. "Good. My closet is closed off nice and good."
"Your closet?" Miley said. "I doubt there's anything in there your sister could really pull off. I know you also don't keep your underwear in there."
"It's not that." Davis said as he wasn't really sure how to explain this.
"Davis!" He heard a girl call for him in excitement and Davis' terror was about to begin.
"She's here." Davis said, but not with as much excitement as you think. Davis and Miley went on and they were met up with Jun, Davis' older sister.
"Davis!" Jun said as she was happy to see her little brother as she ran right over and hugged him. "It's great to see you again, doofus."
"Yeah. It's nice to see you again." Davis said.
"Jun, good to see you." Miley said as Jun came over and hugged her as well. "How's school? You doing well?"
"It's great, but it's also nice to have a break." Jun said. "I'm just glad to be back home and to see my little brother again."
"You're actually happy to see me?" Davis said.
"Yeah. I'm a little surprised by that myself, but I plan on having a lot of fun while I'm home." Jun said. "I plan on seeing the great, the handsome, and the most talented…..Jason Burner!" Davis and Miley were a little shocked to hear that. Miley was a little more shocked to hear that Jun wants to see Jason and doesn't seem to know that he's standing right next to her.
"You want to see Jason Burner? Sweet niblets." Davis questioned.
"I heard that he performs here a lot. No one knows where he lives, but his music is so great. I just have to see him perform while I'm here." Jun said. Miley looked over in Davis' direction and Davis felt a little nervous. That was right when Ken came walking in the door.
"Davis, I just got your message. What's the red alert?" Ken asked. "Wait. Jun? Is that you?"
"Ken! Hi. It's great to see you again." Jun said.
"Now I get it. The red alert was that your sister was home." Ken said as he thought that was funny.
"Very funny." Jun said.
"Ken, you came in at the good time. Could you help Jun with her stuff?" Miley said.
"But all I have is a backpack of clothes." Jun said.
"Ken, help her. I have to talk to Davis." Miley said.
"Same old Davis. Still causing trouble." Jun said as she and Ken left the room. That left Davis with Miley and Davis knew he was in some trouble.
"You never told your sister that you were Jason Burner?" Miley asked.
"Not….exactly." Davis said, but Miley stared at him to get him to keep talking. "By that….I mean not really. No."
"Why?" Miley said. "How could you not tell your own sister that you're Jason? I get that you two don't get along, but she is still your sister. She's still family."
"My sister has the biggest mouth around." Davis said. "If I tell her, there's no way she's going to keep it a secret. All she has to do is tell one of her friends. After that, it moves to the next person, and the next, and the next, and the next. Before we know it, most of the Earth's population knows and everything we worked for could be ruined. That's the real reason I locked up my closet. It's so she wouldn't find my Jason stuff. So that settles it. I'm not telling her."
"That settles nothing. She's still your sister." Miley said.
"Yeah…., but I think enough people know the secret." Davis said.
"Davis." Miley said as she kept lecturing him like a parent. "She is your sister. A sibling bond without trust….I don't know what to think of that. You even trusted Ashely, who you only dated for a couple days, enough to tell her the secret. Even I told my brother about me being Hannah."
"That's different." Davis said.
"How?" Miley asked.
"He was still living with you when you started." Davis said. "If Jackson didn't live with you, would you still have told him knowing how you two get along?"
"Yes." Miley said without any doubt about it.
"Really? Really think about that." Davis said. Miley did what he said and really thought about it.
"Sweet niblets. I hate it when you turn my words against me." Miley said. "Okay. I'll admit I have a few relatives that I wish didn't know, but they were still family and Jun is your family. If you don't have trust between family, what do you have?"
"Look, I just can't risk it." Davis said.
"Davis, if she finds out from anyone else, she will be hurt." Miley said. She keeps trying to convince Davis to tell Jun, but Davis just won't budge.
"You two done?" Jun asked as she and Ken came back.
"Yeah…" Miley said. She is disappointed in Davis, but she stopped talking about it. She wants Davis to be the one to tell her the truth about Jason.
…
The Streets
Jun decided to hit the streets with Ken and Davis coming along with her. As they were walking, Ken and Davis stayed back and were talking about the problem. Ken was informed that Davis never told Jun that he's really Jason Burner.
"You really never told her?" Ken said.
"No. I don't think Jun can keep her big mouth shut about it." Davis said.
"Honestly, I'm surprised she doesn't already know." Ken said. "I would have assumed someone else in your family would have mentioned it or something. Still, I'm with Miley on this. I really think you should tell her. She's your sister."
"No way. I think it's too risky." Davis said.
"What are you two talking about back there?" Jun asked.
"Nothing." Davis said. Jun seemed a little suspicious about it, but she decided to let her go. When they think she wasn't listening, the two of them kept talking.
"Look, it took a while before you told me you were Jason." Ken said. "I'm your best friend and that bothered me, but your sister is different. She should be told as soon as possible. You shouldn't keep secrets from your family. The only reason I never told my parents is because this is your secret and I've respected your wishes, but we're talking about your family."
"Are you serious?" Davis said. "Superheroes keep secrets from their families. They don't tell them about their secret double lives."
"You're not a superhero. You're a superstar." Ken said.
"Some of my fans would beg to differ." Davis said. "Besides, people keep secrets from their parents and siblings all the time. This is no big deal."
"Davis…" Ken said as he still didn't approve of this.
"Let's deal with this another time. I have a Jason thing tonight and Jun's only here for a couple days." Davis said. "There's nothing to worry about."
…
The Penthouse
"Looking good." Jason said as he looked himself over in a mirror. He got himself dressed and ready to go. Jason stepped out of his hidden closet and was about to sneak out of the place so Jun wouldn't noticed. "Better get going."
"Davis?" Jun said as she was about to come in. Jason panicked and dived back in the closet. "Davis? Are you in here?"
"Jun? Hang on. I'll be right out." Davis said as he was trying to change back into his regular clothes as quickly as possible.
"Davis? What are you doing in the closet?" Jun asked.
"Hold on." Davis said. He was able to get change and got out in his normal look. He closed the doors and tried to act as casual as he could. Davis leaned against it to keep the doors closed. "What's up?"
"Why were you in the closet?" Jun asked.
"I was….counting my clothes. When you spend some time with someone like Miley, you picked up some of her strange habits." Davis said.
"You're acting weird. Well, weirder than usual." Jun said. "I just came to see what's going on with you? Miley said you and her aren't joining me or Jesse for dinner. She told me to ask you."
"Did she?" Davis said as he could see that Miley was trying to get Davis to tell Jun the truth. "Well, she was wrong. I'm not saying. Bye."
"Okay." Jun said as she was thinking everyone has been acting strange. "So how about you show me what's in the closet? What are you really hiding?" Jun tried acting playful as she tried to get inside, but Davis was doing his best to keep her back. Davis actually did run out of patience with her.
"Jun, enough! You're not seeing! Now get out!" Davis said as he lost his temper with her and Jun felt a little insulted.
"Okay, you bossy freak." Jun said. "I was just playing around with you." Jun left Davis alone and he was starting to feel guilty. The problem is he doesn't know what to do to solve it without revealing to her that she's Jason.
…
The Next Day
"Davis, I'm telling you that you need to tell her the truth." Ken said. Davis and Ken continued talking about letting Jun in on the secret as they talked in the kitchen. Davis told him what went on last night and is starting to think things are getting a little out of hand. "Maybe if you just tell her, she'll leave you alone."
"No way." Davis said. "I don't know if I can really trust Jun with this secret. Even if I do, she'll be constantly asking me for favors from Jason." Ken was starting to get annoyed with this whole thing.
"Maybe I'm trying this the wrong way." Ken said. "What's it going to take for you to admit the secret to your own sister?"
"I don't know." Davis said. "Look, I get what you and Miley are saying, but you can just stop. In the end, it's my secret and it's my decision who I should tell and who I shouldn't. I get that Jun's my sister and I get that I should let her in on that, but families keep secrets from each other all the time. I just don't know if I can really trust her with it. Why are you and Miley even making a big deal about this?" Ken tried to respond, but he didn't have a good answer.
"You're right. It's your secret and you decide who you should tell." Ken said. "I just don't see a reason as to why you should keep this from her." Davis was putting it behind him now, but as he was about to exit the kitchen, he spotted Jun on the couch and she seemed upset about something.
"Hey, Jun." Miley said as she came in. "Is everything okay?"
"Not really. I feel like Davis is keeping something from me." Jun said.
"Is he?" Miley said as she tried to act like she didn't really know anything. "What makes you say that?"
"He's been acting really weird. It feels like he's hiding something from me." Jun said. "I know Davis and I don't get along all that well, but he's still my brother. I guess I shouldn't invade on his privacy, but I don't like that's he keeping stuff from me. After being away for so long, I was hoping we could use this opportunity to become closer. Looks like that isn't happening if he won't say tell me what's going on." Davis was starting to feel guilty about the whole thing.
"Maybe, if Davis is hiding something, he's afraid of what you'll do. He did say you are a big mouth." Miley said.
"I get that, but if the secret is really a big deal to him, I would still keep it." Jun said. Davis felt bad that he upset Jun over this whole thing.
"Still think she would tell her secret?" Ken asked. "June will be leaving soon and you really want her to leave like that?"
"Well, if Davis doesn't trust me enough or want to hang, fine." Jun said. "I'll just go and leave tomorrow." Jun got up and was about to leave, but Davis wasn't going to let his sister leave like this.
"Jun, wait." Davis said as he showed himself.
"Davis? Were you in there the whole time listening?" Jun asked.
"You're right. There is something I'm hiding." Davis said. "I get we haven't gotten along well in the past, but you are my sister and you deserve better. Come with me."
"Where?" Jun said.
"My closet." Davis said as he grabbed her arm and dragged her to his room.
"I don't think you need to share anything that private in there." Jun said.
"Not like that." Davis said. They walked off and Ken and Miley were real proud of him. Davis took Jun to his room with Ken going with. Jun saw all the clothes of Jason, the wig, and was amazed by all of that. She couldn't believe it.
"Unbelievable! My little brother is really Jason Burner!" Jun said.
"Yeah. I've bene Keith for a while, just so you know." Ken said.
"Who's Keith?" Jun asked and Ken actually felt offended by that. "Davis, why didn't you tell me before?"
"I was worried. I didn't know if I could really trust you with this secret, Jun." Davis said. "It's really important that you keep it a secret."
"Davis, I swear I won't tell anyone." Jun said.
"You better. See this guy?" Davis said as he took out his phone and showed a picture of Rocky. A picture alone is intimidating. "This here is my bodyguard, Rocky. You better not tell my secret or he will hunt you down. He's a shark, a panther, and a cobra."
"A cobra? When did he become a cobra?" Ken asked.
"Don't ask. You don't want to know." Davis said as he shuddered at the thought. "Anyway…you said you wanted to see Jason perform, right? How about a backstage pass instead for a better view."
"Are you serious? Thank you, Davis." Jun said as she hugged her brother.
"Well, yo, time to go." Ken said as he tried to show who Keith was, but Jun still didn't know. Ken felt offended and left. Davis and Jun wrapped their arms around each other and went off. Now that there are no secrets in this family, perhaps they'll be less things to worry about. Probably not.
