EVERYTHING THAT WAS UNSAID
:: v. | the jesus thing

It was late at night, Sarah was upstairs in her room doing homework. It wasn't that late, maybe around seven thirty. But any day is late for screaming which is exactly what she was hearing in the hallway —— loud and clear. It was jude and Jesus. She rolled her eyes, hopping off the bed to open the door.

They were going after each other's throats. As Sarah stood and watched, eventually her moms came up to settle it down. And yes, she still stood there and watched with her arms crossed, leaning on the doorframe.

Once moms went back downstairs, Jesus shut the door in jude's face and that's when Sarah intervened.

"Want to sleep in my room?" She stood between the door way and leaned against the frame of the door with her arms still crossed over her chest.

Jude just sighed walking pass her then she closed the door behind them. He was sitting on the bed when she turned around and leaned her back against the door. The blonde crossed her arms over her chest again as she tilted her head and just looked at him for a moment. He was on his phone.

"Jude . . ." She went and sat next to him, "What was that about?"

"Jesus has been getting real personal lately." Jude began, "The whole sock on the door thing doesn't make any sense. It's suppose to be our room."

"Sock on the door, huh?" She didn't believe it. Jude's only ten and he's being told about this shit. Sarah was not having this, "You know what? It's about time jesus stepped down from his high horse." She stood up and left the room to bang on Jesus' door until he opened it.

Soon Jesus opened the door and it was easy to tell she had irritated him which she was completely fine with because he's a pain in the ass a majority of the time.

"Why are you banging on the door for?" He exclaimed.

"How more stupid can you be!" She yelled. Sarah paid no mind as moms came back upstairs and her sisters stepping out their room as well as Brandon, then Jude. She knows her parents already handled it but she hasn't and she'll be damned if she let her brother bully around her little one.

Jesus rolled his eyes, "It's just a sock on the fucking door sarah!"

"What is going on here?!" Stef raised her voice from behind.

Jesus kept his eyes locked on Sarah's, "Nothing, mom. It's just Sarah being a bitch as always. Why don't you go find a white line and sniff it up?"

Sarah's anger only grew. She pushed jesus, making him stumble backwards in his room. Before things went any further, Stef intervened. She got between the two, arms extended out keeping both teens at distance from each other.

Stef pointed to Sarah, "You, bed. Now."

Sarah huffed and marched back in her room, closing the door behind her and Jude.

Then Stef's attention turned to jesus, "Let's chat." She walked into his room with Lena following behind. Jesus closed the door behind them before going to sit at his desk.

"Honey . . " Lena began, "You can not say that to Sarah. Anything can set her off. She's still in recovery."

"So you're saying it's my fault she pushed me?"

"No." Stef chimed in, "She takes responsibility for her actions but we can't have her falling off the cliff again. You remember the last time?"

He sighed, "Yeah . . . I do."

"Ok, do we have an understanding?" Stef rose her brows.

Jesus annoyingly sighed, "Yes."

"Good." Stef nodded, "Now take the sock off the door and let Jude come in."

Jude was back in his room and everyone eventually went to sleep after that little fiasco. Even though Callie and Jude hadn't been there for long, it felt like they were apart of the family —— fully dysfunctional, crazy family.

The next day, Sarah was laid out on Hannah's bed. The two usually had a last period but the teacher was sick and there was no substitute, so they just ditched.

The burnette was admiring Sarah as the blonde spoke. Hannah was infatuated with everything Sarah had to say.

"Jesus is a fucking menace." Sarah scoffed, "He had the nerve to kick Jude out and use my addiction against me."

Hannah agreed, "Asshole. But why'd he kick out Jude?"

"Something about a sock on the door —— whatever that means."

Hannah immediately got it, "Sock on the door? Dude, your stupid brother was masturbating."

"Ew." Sarah sat up, "I didn't need to know that."

"That means he's having sex." Hannah then saw Sarah's face, "Why are you smiling so evilly?"

"Because you just gave me an idea and i know exactly who he's boning."

"Who?" Hannah's eyes grew wide, eager to know.

"Can't tell." Sarah began to get up from the bed, "It's part of my blackmail."

Sarah proceeded to the bedroom door and as she began heading to the exit of the house, Hannah lastly mentioned . . .

"Keep me updated!"

Sarah ended up taking a city bus back home and she was quite happy to see her siblings back from school. She was more excited when she learned jesus was coming home any minute then.

As Sarah waited in her room for Jesus, the kept hearing the front door open and shut for the last hour. Lena came back, Callie left out with Wyatt. It was like a constant revolving door.

Then there was one more open and close. She knew it couldn't be her mom because stef is on call till the night. As soon as she heard the voice, that evil grin came back. Sarah immediately hopped out her bed and went to her bedroom door. She slightly opened it, peeking through. She saw jesus walk across to his door and opened it, then closing it behind him.

She quickly left out her room and without knocking, walked into jesus' room.

Jesus didn't need to turn around to know who it was, "Get out."

"I could —— " Sarah spoke in a taunting tone, "And tell moms and Mariana that you're boning Lexi. What really solidified the information is that you had to get the morning after pill."

He immediately stood up, facing her, "Yeah and i bet moms don't know you have sex."

"Sweetheart, I'm a fucking drug addiction. They know I'm a slut, how else did you think I make the money. Unlike you, i use a condom."

"What do you want?"

Sarah smirked, "First, your apology. Second, do my chores for the next month and third, cover for me when i sneak out."

"Where you sneaking off to?"

"That's my business. We got a deal?"

He nodded, "Sure." Just when she was about to leave his room, he asked one last thing, "How'd you know it was Lexi?"

"It was obvious. The way you two act around each other when she was here."

With that, Sarah walked out his room and headed back to her's. Her deed was done and now everything was right in the world again . . . at least she thought so.
