This chapter prompted by xXx- another chapter with Chloe. Now a while ago I did a one shot which was the Roscoes have a younger sister, so now I've decided to make this one her 15th birthday.
The ages are:
Joe- 26, Freddie- 24, Ziggy- 21, Robbie and Jason- 18, Chloe- 15
Chapter 39- You'll forever be the youngest:
Chloe sighed as she rolled over in her bed. She looked at the clock and saw that it was 5:15am; 5:15am on a Saturday. She smiled when she remembered what day it was, it was her 15th birthday.
She'd asked for some new trainers and clothes, not much but even with her brothers she wasn't sure how much she'd actually get. Joe, Freddie, Jason and her Mum would probably put the effort in but Ziggy and Robbie she wasn't so sure about.
She was also glad that it was Saturday because the last thing she needed on her birthday was being embarrassed by Robbie at school; ever since that fight they'd all ended up in on her first day, everyone knew who the Roscoes were.
She sighed again and rolled back over, hoping to get some more sleep. There was no way she'd be able to function on her birthday without more sleep.
3 hours later, Chloe squinted as she opened her eyes. Looking at the clock she found it was 8:15, that's a more reasonable time to be awake. She could hear movement on the stairs and what sounded to be the kitchen, meaning her Mum and possibly Joe maybe Jason was up.
She sat up and reached for her phone, finding she had many birthday messages on social media. Some from people she'd never even spoken to. Wow. She pushed the quilt back and got herself out of bed, deciding she wouldn't go back to sleep because of the noise downstairs.
Walking across the landing, Chloe went to go into the bathroom, however the door was locked and Ziggy's bedroom door was open meaning he was putting on his fake tan. Turning around, she sighed, walking across the Joe's room to see if he was awake.
His bed was empty meaning he was up and downstairs. She turned away and walked back across the landing to the stairs, deciding she needed some cheerios if she was going to be able to function.
"Morning sweetheart. Happy birthday" Sandy greeted her with a hug as she walked into the kitchen. "Happy birthday kid" Joe said, sipping on his coffee from his place at the table. "Now, you sit yourself down and I'll make you a cooked breakfast" Sandy said.
Joe choked on his coffee and Chloe had to stifle her laughs; no one wanted her mum's cooking. "Sorry Mum, but I'm not really in the mood. I'm just gonna get some cheerios" Chloe said, walking over to the cupboard and pulling out a bowl.
Sandy frowned but didn't question it; it was her youngest's birthday and Chloe could do what she wanted. "That's alright", Sandy said as she sat down at the table. "So what do you want for your birthday tea?"
Chloe thought as she sat down at the table. "Probably just order a pizza or something" she said, looking at Joe who gave her a thumbs up. "Are you sure? We could have a nice family meal" Sandy suggested.
Chloe pretended to think about it, however she already knew the answer."No, I was actually thinking we could order pizza and then have a movie night" Chloe said, looking up at Joe again who couldn't be happier with her plan.
"Okay then darling, if that's what you want to do" Sandy said. Chloe nodded, while eating a spoonful of her.
"Morning chaps, and birthday girl" Ziggy greeted cheerfully as he entered the kitchen. "Morning darling. Would you like a cooked breakfast?" Sandy asked. "You know what Mum, I'd love one" Ziggy replied as he sat down at the table.
"You do know you're gonna get food poisoning" Joe whispered. "No I won't" Ziggy hissed. Chloe laughed as she watched her brothers; it was true that Ziggy probably would get food poisoning but he always felt sorry for their mum and how no one ate her cooking.
"So what have you got for your birthday then?' Ziggy asked. "Nothing, so far" Chloe replied, finishing her bowl of cereal. "What! Mum, why hasn't she opened her presents?" Ziggy turned round to ask Sandy.
"Because the other three aren't up yet" Sandy replied as she visibly burnt the bacon ans sausages. "Tough luck kid" Joe said, finishing his coffee. "Whatever" Chloe replied, standing up and putting her bowl in the kitchen sink; trying not to wince when she saw the black bacon her mum was serving Ziggy.
"I'm gonna go get ready" Chloe stated before leaving the kitchen. "I'm gonna go kick the twins out of bed" Joe said, placing his mug in the sink and following Chloe out of the kitchen and up the stairs.
"This is lovely Mum" Ziggy said as he gagged on the bacon.
As Chloe was her room getting ready, she could hear Joe arguing with Robbie. She looked at her clock and saw that it was only 9am. What the hell could they have been arguing about?
"What do you mean you haven't got her anything?" Joe hissed as he closed the door. "I just forgot" Robbie replied, sounding groggy. "That's not good enough. Have you got her something, Jase?" Joe asked.
"Yeah" Jason replied, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. "At least one of you made the effort" Joe sighed. "I want you to get up and get ready, then go out and buy her something." Robbie scoffed.
"What am I supposed to get her?" Joe shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know, take Jase." Jason jumped out of bed. "Don't bring me into this." Joe walked towards the door and then turned back round to face the twins. "I don't care. Just get her something." Joe turned around and left the room, slamming the door.
Chloe heard the door slam but assumed that it was just Robbie being cheeky. She'd for herself ready and began to head downstairs.
"You look like death" Chloe joked as she walked into the kitchen to find Freddie sipping slowly on a hot cup of coffee. "Rough night?" Chloe asked as she sat down opposite him. "Something like that" Freddie grumbled, causing Chloe to chuckle.
"Where's Ziggy?" Freddie asked, starting to feel more awake. "Try the bathroom" Chloe said; Freddie shot her a confused look. "He ate Mum's cooked breakfast" Chloe clarified. Freddie laughed taking another sip of his coffee. "That's what he gets for being a mummy's boy."
"Who's a mummy's boy?" Ziggy asked as he entered the kitchen. "No one" Freddie said as Chloe laughed. "What?", Ziggy asked. "Oh is it my tan. It's not coming off is it?" Chloe laughed even more but had stop herself when she saw Ziggy's worried expression.
"No Zig, you're tan's fine. I'm just laughing at something Freddie said" Chloe said. "Right well, I'll leave you to it. The shower is calling" Freddie said as he finished up his coffee before leaving.
"How was Mum's breakfast?" Chloe asked, hiding her laughter. Ziggy glared at Chloe.
"No Jase, I want some breakfast first" Robbie said as he slipped his shoes on. "No Rob, we need to go now" Jason said, sick of his brother. "Fine" Robbie said following Jason out of their room.
"Where are you two off to?' Sandy asked as her twins emerged from their room. "Just out for a walk. We both pulled some muscles at football yesterday" Jason lied, knowing what hell would break loose if it got out th at Robbie hadn't gotten Chloe anything. "Oh, well don't be too long" Sandy said before carrying on down the stairs.
Robbie and Jason followed her and left the house.
"I can't afford any of this stuff" Robbie complained, sifting through some jackets. "How much did you bring?" Jason asked. "A tenner" Robbie replied sheepishly. "Rob!" Jason hissed. "What the help were expecting to buy with a tenner?"
"Some chocolate" Robbie replied. Jason sighed; he should have know Robbie would be like this. "You can't just get her chocolate" Jason reasoned. "Why don't you get her chocolate and a new football" Jason suggested.
"But then I'll have no change" Robbie moaned. "So?" Jason questioned. "Fine" Robbie huffed. Jason smiled as they walked in the direction of the sports department.
"Where did Rob and Jase say they were going?" Chloe asked Sandy as she walked into the living where her Mum was was watching tv. "Out for a walk to ease their pulled muscles. They should be back soon" Sandy said, looking at the clock.
As if on cue the sound of the front door opening and people arguing filled the living room. "Can we now get something to eat Jase, I'm starving" Robbie complained. "We would have already had something to eat if you hadn't forgotten her present" Jason said, closing the door.
"You forgot her present!" Sandy shouted, standing up from the sofa and joining Chloe in the hallway. "Well done Jase!" Robbie exclaimed, sarcastically.
"No Robert, don't blame this on Jason, you're the one that forgot" Sandy said. "Well I got her something" Robbie said, wafting the bag he was holding in front of his mum and sister.
Sandy just sighed and walked through to the kitchen. "You got me a £5 football" Chloe said. "Yes and some chocolate" Robbie clarified. Jason laughed and walked through to the kitchen.
"You might as well just give it to me now" Chloe said. "Happy birthday" Robbie said as he thrust the bag at her. He barged past her and made his way to the kitchen. Chloe smiled and took the football out of the bag, turned around and threw it off her brother's back.
"What the help was that for!" Robbie shouted turning round. "Just a thank you" Chloe replied, smiling cheekily.
I'm not that happy with this but thank you for reading, hope you enjoyed, please review and let me know what you think and if you have any suggestions feel free to leave them :)
Next chapter prompted by guest- Sandy signs Jason and Robbie up for modelling when they're 13 and the management thinks Jason is too chubby and wants him to lose weight, and that leads to Jason's anorexia. Also they have a big photo shoot and when they need to wear clothes from the new line, they don't fit Jason anymore.
