One-Shot 2: Jeans

Jacob Stoll sat there examining the colors he could choose. His hand glided over the large gauze Band-Aid wrapped around his head and his fingers graced over the large blood spot on it.

He cringed at the thought of falling down the stairs. But he was all to blame; he wasn't looking where he was going as he drew his masterpieces. His mother always freaked out when she found his all bloody and on the floor but his father just acted like it was a normal thing.

Often times Jacob would hear his mother yelling at his father for lending the children his genes and making them crazy. At that time Jacob didn't know what kind of 'genes' she was talking about so he thought she meant 'jeans'.

He was sure that he didn't wear his father's jeans so he went to his twin and asked her. They sat in the backyard and he watched her hang off a branch of a tree upside-down. He tried to point out to her that he could see her underwear as she hung off the tree in a sundress but she just ignored him. Finally he asked,

"Do you wear Dad's jeans?" he asked her mentally since he was a mute but could speak to people with God blood in them. She looked at him and laughed.

"Why would I?" she laughed. "He's a boy and they'd be too big for me!" Her brown waves moved around freely as she continued to laugh at him.

"Well," he started. "Mommy said something about 'jeans' and Dad passing them onto us. Do you know what that means?" She tilted her head to the side in confusion.

"Mama's a scientist right?" she asked. He nodded. "She talks about sciency stuff all the time, maybe 'jeans' have to do with science!"

"Hm," he muttered. He didn't really believe it. Jeans aren't scientific so how could Hailey even think that? Hailey swung and grabbed onto the gauze on his head. He was about to snatch it back but then as stealthy as Hailey was, she fell right onto of him with her pointy elbow crushing his head.

Katherine Stoll was in the Living Room of her house doing paper work when she heard a loud scream. She dropped her laptop and ran to the backyard. "It's your fault your head was right there!" she heard her daughter scream.

"Yea and it's your fault that you fell on me elbow first!" Katie opened the door and she saw her children lying on the floor. One had a bleeding head and the other one hand a broken elbow.

She smacked her forehead but lifted the two children up and took them into the house. As Jacob was being hauled away he listened to his mother curse at his father and how crazy he made them. He looked at Hailey who was listening too.

After being mended up their mother was scolding them. (Well, mainly Hailey.) "If you know that you're gonna fall off the tree then don't climb it!" she exclaimed. But of course, Hailey would never follow that logic as she would fall on Jacob millions upon millions of times in her short lifetime from that same tree.

While Katie was in mid-sentence, Hailey blurt out, "Mommy, what are jeans?" Katherine stared at her daughter.

"What kind of _ (you can choose what kind of genes/jeans you think she says.) do you mean honey?" she replied taking a deep breath. Hailey started to twiddle her fingers.

"Well JACOB," Jacob gave her a dirty look. "Came to me asking what you mean by Dad giving us 'jeans'. What kind of jeans are you talking about? Blue jeans?" Both twins were surprised when their mother burst out laughing.

"Mommy it isn't funny," Hailey said softly as her lip quivered. Jacob just sat there not saying really anything. Katie opened her eyes and saw her daughter almost in tears so she brought her into a warm embrace while not crushing her broken elbow.

"I'm sorry," Katie said softly. And yet again Jacob felt awkward because it was a girl thing so he tried sneaking away but his head hurt so he just lay there in pain while watching his mother and sister having a girl moment. He wondered how his father could live with these girls. But then he remembered his father questioning it too when it was the week when if you irked just a little bit (Occasionally Travis told his son never to marry a crazy woman like Katie.) she would be pissed off.

She had told them what genes were and how everybody had them.

When Travis Stoll came home his daughter came up to him and yelled, "YOU HAVE BAD GENES!" and then walked away.

Travis stood there in confusion until he yelled for his wife to get her 'sexy ass' over here.

Haha oh little kids. Sorry for not updating for a long time but I had no inspiration until now. So thanks for reading!
