Short Story (Positive/Negative Character Traits)

    
    " OLLLIIIVVEERR !! , mom and dad need to talk to you " Ruby shouted with a sneaky tone of voice . Oliver came thumping down the stairs like a bear just waking up from hibernating , " Yes my lovely father and mother " he replied sarcastically . " Your father and I are going to see your aunt Linda for the night and well were gone we need you to watch your sister " , " But .. " Oliver tried to answer , " No buts about it we need you to do this for us and if you are a good babysitter we'll give you fifty dollars towards that new phone you want " Oliver's mother interrupted . Their mother and father walked into the kitchen.
" You have to do everything I tell you do Ruby , alright ? " Oliver commanded , " Actually no , I'll do what I want to do and you can just watch me " Ruby commanding back . As their parents returned back in , Ruby turned around , smiled and said sweetly " Mommy , daddy don't worry I'll do everything Olly tells me to do " she then turn and looked at Oliver with a devious look on her face and quickly looked back over at her parents and batted her eye lashes.

 
   After three hours of no sound not even a pin drop , out of nowhere Oliver heard a " BOOM , CRASH , BANG ! " from upstairs , Oliver bolted up the stairs thinking Ruby had hurt herself , but conveniently Ruby was fine , she had just been trying build a fort with all of Oliver's stuff. " What are doing with my STUFF ?! " Oliver shouted , " What ? , it's not like i broke anything important " Ruby said rudely , " Well i guess you didn't ....   EXCEPT MY XBOX ! " Oliver was so mad he didn't know what to do so he called his father to tell him about the whole thing , when Oliver was done talking , his dad asked to speak with Ruby , when Ruby got on the phone she said sweetly well pretending to cry " Daddy I'm so sorry i didn't mean to I wanted to build something where Olly and I could play " after that her father had told her it was fine and hung up.
" Ruby , I trusted you to be better than this " Oliver said disappointingly , " Olly I'm actually sorry it's just you never pay attention to me anymore " Ruby replied sadly , " Really , well I'll start to pay attention to you , but I do like our little fights like brothers and sisters have " Oliver happily said.

   After everything had been said the two of them built a fort , played in it and fell asleep. When there parents got home they were surprised to see the two together for once , so their mother lightly tapped Oliver's shoulder to ask how the night had been , Oliver replied " It was great I'll gladly babysit for Ruby anytime " his mother was in shock from the sentence he just said and she looked at him and shockingly said " Instead of me giving you the fifty do .. " Oliver interrupted " If I'm not getting paid because it was a good night then I'll never babysit again " Oliver's mother laugh and went on with what she was trying to say " As I was saying , since it was such a good night , I'm not going to pay you because instead I'll just buy you the new phone you want " Oliver's face lite up with excitement and he walked over to his sister , picked her up and put her in to bed , he kissed her so sweetly and gentle so she wouldn't awake and whispered " I love you " .
