It was a new day in Dallas and errands had to be run. Jason, who was thirteen, and his little brother Jake, who was eight, were sent out by their mother to get some milk. Luckily, the grocery store was only a few blocks away from their house and the brothers got the milk and made it home all within the space of half an hour. As soon as they got home Jason opened the fridge and grabbed a soda, heading for the living room. Jake wasn't allowed a soda whenever he wanted one like Jason, so he carefully poured himself a glass of milk and went out into the living room with his brother. Jason was watching one of his favorite shows and Jake sat watching it with him. He didn't particularly like the show, but since Jason was older and bigger and stronger he got to pick what they did, when they did it, and how they did it. If Jake protested he was likely to get a noogie, a wedgie, or some other form of brotherly punishment.
Sometimes he wished things were different and he could be the one in charge. But that was unlikely to happen. He drank his milk and frowned a little at the taste. It made his mouth feel all tingly. He drank it down quickly and went back for some more.
The rest of the day passed uneventfully. Jake was the only one to partake of any of the milk, his parents prefering water and his brother prefering soda or juice. Soon it was time for bed and Jake tugged the covers up around him, feeling sleepier than usual.
As he fell asleep, he had no idea he was slowly changing throughout the night.
