ICARUS¹ [ on hold ]

chapter three.

☄▐ ICARUS THREW open the door to her brother's bedroom and flopped herself on top of him, "Guess what today is?" She sang in his ear, making him groan

"Icky!" He exclaims like a child

"It's your first day! And there's no way I'm missing it, get your ass up!" She hopped off of him and pulled the blanket off and to the floor, "Up, up, up! You get five minutes, or im coming back with a bucket of water!"

Icarus ran out of the room and pulled out her phone, dialing a very familiar number and waiting patiently for an answer, "Morning, Wings!" Stiles greets happily, tripping on his feet as he answered the phone

"Hey, glad you're up! You ready for today?" She asks him excitedly, bouncing on the balls of her feet

"Probably not as excited as you," He chuckles, zipping his jeans up and, "Did you wake Scott up?"

"As gracefully as I could." She beams, making her way into the bathroom, "So as chaotic as possible."

The girl dropped her gaze to the tiled floor, her free hand fumbling for the medicine cabinet as she avoided looking into the mirror, "I bet he loved that, didn't he?" Stiles jokes,

"Oh, yeah," The girl agrees, pulling open the cabinet and looking uo once she was sure there was no mirror in front of her, "He was ecstatic when I threw myself on top of him and screamed in his ear, loved every bit of it,"

Stiles laughs loudly, shrugging into a flannel as he smirks, "Well, get him up and hurry his ass off to school. I wanna talk to him, its important."

The girl grabs her medicine, looks down and closes the cabinet and left the room, "I will. Have a good day, okay? Bye."

"Bye, Wings."

The spastic teenager she had grown to adore hung up and she traipsed into Scott's room, clapping her hands, "You would never last as a Marine." She stated as she watched her brother sluggishly pull on his jeans

"That sucks," He mumbles sarcastically, pushing his dark hair out of his eyes to gkance at her before trudging into his bathroom with slumped shoulders

"Hey, do you realize how lucky you are to be able to start sophomore year with people your own age? I was fourteen and going to school with sixteen year olds!" She exclaims, following after him as he began to brush his teeth

He let out a sound of bored interest as she continued to talk, "I'm serious, Scott. You only get to be a kid and go to high school for so long, you only get your sophmore year once -- well, unless you flunk but that's a whole 'nother converstation." Scott sighs, slowly brushing his teeth as he glanced at his sister, who was very careful to stay out of the mirror's view

"I didn't get to be a kid, Scott. I was in high school when i was thirteen and in the Marine's by the time i was sixteen. You have to live like a teenager for me or I'll castrate you." She warned, pointing a finger at him
