Chapter 2
Joseph was dead, dead with a capital 'D'.
For a Jackson to steal cookies from three of their siblings, that meant death by knives. What was worse, Melody and Zoe had been taking lessons from their Aunt Penny, and she was the meanest woman in history. So yeah, Joseph was dead.
At the moment, Joseph was cowering in his little brother, Anton's, closet. He was so glad that Anton had agreed to cover for him, because if Anton hadn't, then Joseph would already be dead. Now he just had to hope that Melody, Zoe, and Luke wouldn't find him and he would be home free.
After a few hours of hiding, Joseph thought he was in the clear, so he opened the door of the closet. Bad move on his part.
Apparently, Luke, Melody, and Zoe had figured he had been in the closet so they waited there in Anton's room for Joseph to come out. As soon as he saw them with their knives out, he made a dive for the window.
He had never been more thankful that Anton had left the window open. And that Anton's bedroom was on the first floor.
Joseph tumbled out into the Jackson's back yard and he made a break for it, hopping over the fence and into the alleyway. He didn't stop running when he got in the alleyway. He was not going to let himself get sliced like sandwich bread. That would not be cool.
Joseph ran so far that by the time he was out of energy, he was at his favorite resturant. He took a deep breath and went inside, figuring that he could use a burger with french fries.
He pulled his wallet out of his back pocket, happy that he always put it in his back pocket. He then went up to the counter. Joseph was about to place his order when he saw the cashier. Immediatly, his breath caught. The cashier was a really pretty girl with a slim frame, brown curly hair, and sparkling blue eyes.
"Hello what would you like to order?" The girl asked smiling.
He placed his order and went to a table at the front of the resturant. He sat down facing the counter and the pretty girl. Joseph couldn't help but admire her as he was eating his meal.
When Joseph was half-way through his burger though, his worst nightmare came true. Luke came in the door of the resturant, followed by Melody and Zoe. Joseph gulped and stood up. He quickly threw his food away and then he tried to get to the door without running into his siblings.
Luck must not have been in his favor though because the three of them cornered him.
"Joseph Tyler Jackson." Zoe growled. "You're coming home with us, right now."
"Can't we just talk about this?" Joseph asked nervously.
"No, home now." Zoe ordered tapping her foot.
"Fine." Joseph sighed. "But I'm telling mom and dad."
"Whatever." Zoe said and then she, Melody, and Luke dragged him out of the resturant.
As he left, he saw the cashier girl, now leaning on the counter, giggling like mad.
