Jackson sat on the hood of his truck chucking pedals from a daisy he had picked up out of the greenhouse to give to Maddie today onto the pavement. Maddie was sick today, so he had no use for the daisy, right? He threw the bare flower stem down on the pavement after he finished plucking all of the pedals off like a farmer plucking feathers off of a chicken. He coughed and then spat out some dip juice, watching as it smacked the pavement. He had a rather large Copenhagen dip in his lip.. He smirked a bit as he seen his sister Melody walk down the sidewalk.. He was gonna give her a ride home.. because she had her permit and not her liscense, so she couldnt drive..
Jackson was wearing his brown cowboy boots, and his tight wrangler rodeo bootcut bluejeans, and his black belt with his large silver, gold outlined beltbuckle with a large golden J in the middle of it and a bullrider in the behind of it engraved. He also wore a shortsleeve white dixie outfitters t-shirt with a Whitetail deer on the back of it. He then wore a thick tanned Carhartt jacket over this, and a black and green John deere hat on his head. He had a can of dip in his pocket, a pack of marlboro reds and a lighter in his side pocket, and his keys, and his cellphone and a pocket knife were also in his junked up pockets.. He raised his head looking at Melody.. "What took ya so long, sis?"

Melody walked down the sidewalk of the school searching for her brother until she spotted him and changed her path to direct it towards the place he was standing. Today she was wearing her favorite pair of blue jeans with the ripped knees, her blue cowboy boots and a black happy bunny t-shirt that said 'you would be better if you were me'. She wasn't really that self centered she just thought that the happy bunny sayings were cute and even funny sometimes.
She knew that she was later than Jackson would have expected and she knew that he would wonder why. Melody didn't like to lie to her brother but she had gotten into a fight with one of her newer friends since she moved here and honestly it was over a stupid boy. She was a bit ashamed actually to have gotten in a fight over a boy...but then again it was a boy that she had a lot of feelings about and her friend had known she had liked him. "Nothin' I just got into a small fight with one of my friends and I had to sort it out with her." She tried smiling as she said this. It was a bit hard for her to smile when she had just been in the bathroom crying for twenty minutes but she made her best attemppt at sh e jumped up into the passengers side of the truck. Her eyes were still a little sore and red but she still liked to be enthusiastic.

Jackson slid off of the hood as she neared, taking his marlboros out of his tight pocket on his side, and them removing one from the pack, letting it dangle from his lips as he put his pack on the dashboard as he climbed in his truck.. He then slowly grabbed a lighter from his pocket and struck the flint and the gas, raising the flame to his cigarette. He closed his eyes as he took the first drag off of it. He then put the lighter in his pocket as he turned his head to her, "You look like you've been crying, whats wrong?" He knew when Mel was upset, and he didnt like to see her upset, she was the only part of the family he felt close to and one that he could trust..

Melody knew that Jackson wasn't stupid and that he would figure out that she had been crying and for some reason she didn't even care. She wasn't going to have anyone else to comfort her anyway since the reason she was crying was because of one of her only friends she had made in the school anyway. "Nothing... it was just a stupid fight over some stupid boy. Really, I'm fine. I'll get over it eventually. She looked at him as he began to back out and drive away. She chewed on her now tasteless gum as she sat in the car and closed her eyes. She was a little tired from crying, it really wore you out.

Jackson, being the overbearing, overprotective ass he was took another drag off of his cigarette, and let it hang from his lips as he grabbed his Remington shotgun off of the gun rack.. "I'm gonna have to shoot me a boy, am I?" He said with a smirk inside his head, he really wouldnt shoot no body.. But hell, He could sure try to make her feel better.. He smirked as he put the gun back on the gunrack.. securing it.. "You know I wont kill anyone, but that Tyrone motherfucker.." He said, rolling his eyes as he put the truck into first gear, and cranking it, as the manual shift, large truck began to roll around the parking lot.. "Whaddya say we go have some fun?" He said with a smile..

Jackson always made her feel better when she was upset. It had just always been something he did, she felt lucky to have an older brother. She smiled and rubbed her eyes once more to make sure there weren't any tears still dripping from them. She laughed as he made a joke about shooting some boy. That would be nice right now, but it wasn't the boy that she wanted dead, it was Maria. Her supposedly "best friend". Her smile grew bigger when he said something about fun. "Yea, that sounds really good right now"

Jackson watched as they rolled around the school parkinglot. He had a pretty good idea of some fun shit to do, but it was illegal so he thought he would ask her just to be on the safeside.. Taking another long drag off of his cigarette he turned to look at her.. "Ready to break the law?" He said with a smile.. Jackson really couldnt have fun unless it was illegal.. He chuckled as he hauled ass out of the school parkinglot heading down the road to a backroad.. He pulled off on it and took out his shotgun, loading a shell into it as he looked over at her.. "Drive." And after she climbed over in the drivers seat he stuck his upper body out the window.. Chuckling a bit as he aimed the shotgun at a little neighborhood dog.. He aimed and put his finger on the trigger..

She looked at him like he was crazy. She knew that he could do some odd things sometimes but this came as a total surprise to her. She started laughing in a kind of way that would show she thought he was crazy too. Sometimes though crazy things were good and right now she really needed to have some fun. "You want me to drive? Haha okay then." She decided just to go along with it, she jumped out of her seat and walked around the car to the drivers side getting in and buckling her seat belt. She watched Jackson as he got into the passenger seat and took his shotgun pointing it at a little dog while driving by. "Jackson! Don't kill the poor dog, what did he ever do to you?" Now she seriously knew that there was something wrong with her brother. She knew that he was trying to help make her feel better but the only time he would do something like that was if he had some serious thing on his mind and he wanted to distract himself from it. "Are you okay?"

Jackson chuckled as she took the wheel, his cigarette dangled from his lips as he aimed away from the dog, pulling the trigger watching the shell slam into a street sign.. He then slid back into the truck puttin the gun back on the gunrack.. "Okay we better stop that or we'll get the cops called on us.." He chuckled as he looked behind them, taking another drag off of his cigarette as he watched the sign fall off of its metal holder.. "You like drivin?" He asked, chuckling a bit as he watched her drive the truck... He then took another drag off of the smoke as she asked him if he was okay, he lied, saying "Yeah, I'm alright Mel, dont worry about me.."

She was glad when he put the gun back on its rack. She didn't like getting into his business but sometimes him having that shotgun really scared her. "Yea, I do like driving. Who wouldn't?" She laughed to herself, it was true though why would anyone not want to drive? She watched him as he answered her she could hear hesitation in hesitation in his voice. There was definitely something wrong with him, the only problem was that she never got very involved with his business so she would have no idea what was going on with him or his friends at the moment. "Okay..." She put her eyes back on the road as she continued to drive down the street.

Jackson slumped down in his seat, taking another drag off of his cigarette as he flicked it out the half open window.. He watched it hit the pavement behind them and spark off.. Definently somthing was bothering Jackson.. He raised his head, looking over at his baby sister.. He sighed a bit and began to talk.. "Who am I foolin?' Yeah somthings the matter.. I got a damn kid on the way." He said with a quick gulp, looking down at his boots as he pulled his hat off, putting in between them and putting his head in his hands.. he was clearly troubled by this.. But who wouldnt be?

Mel was still driving when she heard her brother say why he was bothered. She knew that he had been bugging over something but she didn't realize it was this serious and she didn't want to like start a fight or make a big deal out of the whole thing. Even when it was a big deal. "Okay...." She was taken by surprise and there wasn't really anything she could say to that, she was just in a bit of shock. "What are you even going to do?" She asked him in a calm voice. It wouldn't help Jackson or her if she yelled at him even when that was a little bit of what she was feeling. It couldn't be a good thing at all for this to be happening. There parents were going to kill him when they found out she thought to herself.

Jackson closed his eyes as she talked to him, she only had her permit so she couldnt really go much anywhere without someone over 21 whilst driving, Jackson was 18 so she was just shit out of luck.. He looked around, turning the radio down as he turned his attention back to her.. "I dont know, Mel, I dont know.." He said as he raised his hat back up putting it on his head as he sighed a bit, leaning back in his chair as he looked up at the roof of the truck.. "I'm fucked when mom and dad find out too.." He said with a sigh, and it was true.. More than true..

Melody didn't want to sound pessimistic but both of them knew that it was overly true how much trouble he would get into once there parents found out. She knew that he was upset and when she had walked to the car upset he had tried to make her feel better so she was going to make a probably unsuccessful attempt to do the same thing. "I know your upset but we should be having fun right now not thinking about our problems!" She smiled at him, they needed to have some fun before it all came crashing down when there parents found out. She turned the radio back up a little. "Do you wanna go somewhere fun?" She asked, maybe there was somewhere he really wanted to go that would keep his mind off of the whole kid this.

Jackson took another cigarette from his pack off of the dash, and then pressed in the inside carlighter as the lighter popped out. He grabbed it and put it to the tip of his cigarette, taking a drag off of it as he put his lighter back into the holder in the car.. He took a drag off of it looking around, he took in a deep gulp looking at Melody.. "Mel.. I think I'm movin out.." He said with a sigh as he looked down at the ground. He gulped a bit as he took a drag off of his cigarette, blowing smoke out of his nose and mouth slowly..
