Sister (silverroses2009 and Sure)

[darkvamplips]

"What happened?" She asked on the way to the store meaning about him staring off into space. When she got to the store she got out the car and looked at the store she would be walking into very shortly.

[Sure]

"Nothing." He gave a terse answer and walked into the store, he didn't look up at the signs but walked straight to the edge of the women's section. He just stood there, she didn't seem comfortable with him looking at her clothing before.

[darkvamplips]

"Whatever I buy I will owe you ok?" She asked knowing she could not get a lot of things but a few. Slowly she made her way through the clothing department picking up some pants and shirts. A few t-shirts then came back to him.

[Sure]

"Whatever." He said, he was looking at a few people walking down the aisle, then shrugged and went back to watching her, when she got her clothes his only comment was, "No underwear?" Then he shrugged and lead her to the cashier.

[darkvamplips]

"I saw the underwear closer to the cashier." She said quietly then walked over buying five pairs of them. When she was done she came back to him hoping it would not be to much.

[Sure]

Hunter just shrugged, they went to the cashier, he paid, and then he started walking back out to the car. He was done here, as far as he was concerned.

[darkvamplips]

She grabbed her bags and followed quickly to keep up with her brother. "Something wrong? Am I bothering you?" She asked knowing in about 2 weeks time she could be out of his hair if he wanted her to.

[Sure]

Hunter just said, "Nope." In a matter-o-fact way and got into the car, turning the ignition key and popping the trunk, "Put it in the back." He said, as he looked in the back mirror and took stock of the other cars around him.

[darkvamplips]

(In a matter of fact? What does that mean)?

Slowly she nodded knowing something was up. Twin intuition? She put the bags in the trunk and then got into the drivers seat. A few moments later her seat belt was on.

[Sure]

(matter of fact means straightforward and unemotional)

He started driving and as they passed the bridge and continued driving he said, "And that's where you drove off the bridge." It was still closed and he lingered for a while, stopped by traffic.

[darkvamplips]

"I know where I drove off the bridge ok?" She asked looking at him wondering why the sudden change in attitude towards her.

[Sure]

"Really? I thought you were passed out." The traffic started to move again and he continued driving. Heeneeded to go to a second brige that was further away because of it.

[darkvamplips]

(Sorry forgot she was passed out)

"Well I assumed that's where I went off." She looked at her brother wondering what happened to make him like this? She wished he would tell her.

[Sure]

"Assumptions can be a dangerous thing." He commented dryly, already disinterested. He turned onto another bridge and began to cross a river, but due to twice the amount of normal traffic a gridlock situation had begun on the bridge.

[darkvamplips]

"Thank you for the clothes." She said hoping to break the silence that grew in the car. Would they ever be brother and sister and have a normal friendship?

[Sure]

"You're welcome." He said, restoring the silence with a simple answer that required him to reveal nothing more than he had.

[darkvamplips]

When they got home she took her bags from the back then walked up to the door. She waited patiently for him to unlock it so she could put her stuff in her new room.

[Sure]

He walked up to the door and unlocked it, stepping inside and leaving it slightly ajar for her. He picked up the mail on his way in and he went into another room, shuffling through it and seemingly sorting it.

[darkvamplips]

When she managed to get all the bags inside she looked around the house wondering where her room was. "Where is my room?" She said quietly.

[Sure]

He pointed to a small door that was slightly ajar. Inside there was a bed that had been made a long time ago and never used and an empty closet with a few hangars, the entire room gave off a 'bare' feel.

[darkvamplips]

When she went into the room she looked around. There was not much in here but maybe she could fix it up a bit if he will let her. Soon the clothes were on hangers neatly and some in the small dresser.

[Sure]

Hunter kept on sorting the mail till he got to the table and placed it there, then he scribbled out a piece of paper. He opened her door and posted it inside before leaving. It had the address and phone number of the house there for her, labeled as such.

[darkvamplips]

When she noticed something on the door she went to look at it noticing he had put the address on it. "Thank you." She yelled back looking at the room now that it had some color in it.
