You Better Eat This Shit! (Eddie)

[issy]

Jan 24

Isle stood in the kitchen of her small house in Costa Verde. Her brother Eddie had just moved in with her and that was pissing her off. She had no clue how to raise a teenager let alone talk to her brother. The two hadn’t seen each other for awhile and with what their father put Eddie through Issy wasn’t in the mood for his bull shit.

“Eddie get your ass up. You’ll be late!” She screamed as she got out a can of cola for him to go along with his burger king burger leftover from last nights dinner.

She opened a bottle of beer drinking it as she pulled out some meatloaf she had made days ago throwing it in a bag with bread and the bottle of ketchup. “You better like meatloaf.”

She fixed her long blonde hair pulling it back into a ponytail as she looked out the window hoping not to see a truck across the road. Good. She didn’t. She was worried that her ex Tommy had got out of jail and found her but luckily he hadn’t.

He sat on his computer, downloading music and movies, it was good living with his sister, aside from her bitchyness, he had hacked the next door neighbors high speed wireless on his laptop, so he sat in his room, downloading anything he wanted. When Issy called him out, he yelled back. "I'm up! I'm up!"

Eddie left his laptop on and walked out into the kitchen, seeing Issy going crazy with the food, she obviously had no idea, but a can of coke and some burger king for lunch seemed good enough to him, so he let it go.

"Yeah, Meatloaf is fine" He said, grabbing his bag of stuff. "Why do you keep looking out the window" He asked her, curious. Over the last few days, she was always staring onto the street, almost as if she was, waiting for something.

Issy glared at him as he asked her the stupidest question well it was to her at least. “I had a boyfriend he might be out of jail. So don’t tell anyone you live here got it.” She stated now downing what was left of her beer before she grabbed her car keys eyeing him. “Do you drive?”

She rolled her eyes before grabbing her bag for work. She had recently got a job as a waitress while working at the club in LA weekends. It would make it a lot easier if she had gone and stole the 3 million from her boss but she saw his history and knew she would be dead if she had.

[eddie]

Issy's story was an odd one, but nothing that he couldn't fix. He looked up at his older sister. "Do you have a photo of him" He asked. Maybe this would make Issy settle down a bit, if he was too... deal with the problem. She asked him if he could drive, and he just smiled, this could be fun.

"Yeah, I can. Chuck me the keys" He said. Honestly, he had only had one or two driving lessons before, and he was pretty damn good at it. Perhaps he could give his sister a lift to work, and drive himself to school. This new Heroes school he was meant to be going to seemed, different, maybe even a little fun.

Issy rolled her eyes. “Do I look like I keep his pictures. I’ll find one later its in a box where it has the words written Dumbass on it.” She knew she had some pictures somewhere but knowing her brother he would end up dead if he tried to go after Tommy.

Issy threw the keys to him as she put on her rhinestone studded sun glasses as she walked outside to the beat up pick up truck. She got into the passenger side of the truck fastening up placing her elbow on the side next to the window now closing her eyes. “I wish I had some coke.” She looked at her brother knowing he was about to make a smart ass comment about having cans of coke in the fridge. “Not that kind of coke.”

[eddie]

Issy was hesitant on the whole picture thing, she obviously had no idea what it was exactly that he wanted to do with it, and she joked about it. "Ok, well, I'll look into it later" He said to her, packing the rest of his stuff into his bag, and started walking outside.

Issy threw her 15 year old brother the keys, obviously she was to... intoxicated... to drive, and if anyone asked, he would say that, she had been drinking all morning. He walked outside, locking the door and following Issy, but jumping in the drivers seat. As he got in, he put his bag down between them, and Issy leant up against the window. When she said she wished she had some coke, he reached into his bag, pulling out his can that he was taking for school.

Of course, then she said that it wasn't that kind of coke that she wanted. He had no idea that his sister was well, into drugs, and so much alcohol. He left the can of coke next to her, just in case she wanted it, and started reversing out of the driveway. "There's a can there, if you want it" He said, continuing to reverse, and pulling onto the street.

“I just said it wasn’t that kind of coke.” Issy spat out. “Quit being a smart ass and get on to the driving.” She had no idea what her problem was but in fact she wouldn’t care less what her brother went on about. “So to let you know I’ll be working a lot but that doesn’t mean you can act out every teenage fantasy you have.”

She really wasn’t in the mood to deal with him and she just wanted to make some money. Money in Issyland meant freedom in which meant she could do whatever she damn well pleased. She feels as if the car stops so she takes her hand playing with her brothers hair. “I’m glad you here Eddie.” With that Issy lean to the floor and threw up.

[eddie]

He wasn't exactly happy when Issy snapped at him, and then her mood changed. He had know idea what her problem was, she was constantly up and down. When she said she would be working a lot, he thought that this could be a good thing, but then asked. "Where do you work exactly? What do you do?"

He continued to drive, he hoped that it wasn't far to her work, so then he could head off to school and make some friends and stuff, and as he pulled up at some lights, Issy started playing with his hair and telling him how glad she was that he was here. Some things Issy said he had no idea what to respond to, but that didn't matter, cause straight after she lent over and vomited on the floor.

"Oh, gross" He said, lifting his legs up, and seeing that some backspray had gotten on his new sneakers.

“I’m a waitress at the diner. You know the place where I get you food?” She swore he had been at the place before but she should have been wrong. She smiled wiping her mouth after what she did. She looked back at him as she eyed her outfit. He cant tell? “Dude I’m a stripper.”

She pointed to the next block up. “Turn there the diner is right there. Promise me you wont wreck or get the truck stolen? Its out only means of transportation less you can dig the bus?”

[eddie]

A waitress, that wasn't what he had expected. Actually, yes it was, what else would he be expecting. All girls like Issy were waitresses. But then, he noticed what she was wearing, and before he could even say it, she burst out with it. "A stripper..." Honestly, he didn't like the idea of some random guys paying to watch his sister take her clothes off.

"Yeah, I'll be fine, Issy, I'm probably a better drive then you" He said, pulling up to the diner and getting out, opening the door for her, and letting her out, looking at the puke covered floor. "Look after yourself, Issy" He said, closing the door and getting back in the car, he would have to take this thing for a spin past the fregin car wash.

[issy]

Issy looked at her brother. “Aw no lecture?” She got out of the hug then hugged her brother as she looked around making sure no one saw them. “I’ll be fine. There’s a car wash a block away ask for Mich. He will do it for free.

She walked to the diner’s door looking at her brother giving him a small wave. “Be careful.” Eddie had no clue how careful he should be. She shook her head and walked inside the diner coming face to face with a person shoe thought she would never see again. “It’s you.”
