Bubbly chapter 9 "Caleb, I can't wear THAT!" I



Bubbly
chapter 9

 

"Caleb, I can't wear THAT!"  I sighed.
"Why not?"  He looked confused, holding up a t-shirt and jeans.
"Because," I teased him, "I wnat to look special!"
"Then what are you planning on wearing?"  He groaned.  We had been at this for hours.  Him offering outfits and me shooting them down time and time again.  I squatted and dug around in a tiny chest of clothes my mom left for me.  I ended up choosing a small, yellow sundress with a black ribbon tied around the top.  Caleb sighed when he saw me.  "You look like Mom."
That one comment was enough to make me cry a little.  I went up to him, threw my arms around my big brother, and talked into his chest, "Thanks for everything, Caleb."
-
"Ethan!"  My mom screamed up the stairs.
"What?"  I yelled back.  No reply.  "WHAT?"  Nothing still.  "WHAT IS IT?!"  I stomped down the stairs.
"There's no need to yell at me!"  My mom sighed.
"Then PLEASE, learn to respond!"
My mom pursed her lips in anger, but she ploughed on, "We have to leave for the hospital."
"That's today?"  I groaned.
"Yes.  Now go upstairs, get dressed, and do try to look nice."  She scooted me up the old staircase.  I passed Tommy's room.  He was with Missy, playing with dinosaurs like they always do.
"Hey Tommy?"  Missy put down the T-Rex.
"Yeah?"  He looked up.
"I just wanted to tell you I love you!  You're my best friend in the whole world!"  She gave him a big hug.  It took all I had in me not to fall over.  How could little kids get up the courage to tell someone they loved them?  They probably don't even realize what they're SAYING.  I walked on to my room, the walls painted black and the curtains closed.  I threw themopen to change.  There was this girl across the street who used to wave to me when she saw I was getting ready.  She had caramel hair and big green eyes.  She hasn't been at the window in a long time though, so I give up and throw the curtains closed again.
I grabbed jeans, threw them on, and took a polo as I walked out of my room.  I was putting it on while I went down the stairs when my mom nearly crashed into me.
"Etha-  Oh!  You're down already.  Let's go then!"  We got into our beat up car and drove to the hospital as planned.  I saw the doctor I had talked to and he guided me to some dark room.  When I first walked in, I was shocked by the fact that there was no one in the bed.  But when I closed the door, some guy shoved me against the wall.
"Who are you?"  He growled.
"Ethan.  I'm supposed to come here for some dying girl," I shoved him off me.
"That's my sister you're talking about, jerk.  She's NOT going to die!"  And with that, he stormed out, but two seconds later her was right back in.  "If you upset her at all, I'll kill you."
"Caleb, don't scare away the guy before you even get to know him!"  A voice sang from the bathroom.  Out came a girl in  a yellow dress, and I nearly fell over for the second time today when I saw who it was.  It was the girl from across the street.
