Movie Prompt: Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead
Pairing: J2
Rating: Teen
Word Count: 11K
Summary: The summer after Jared graduates from high school is supposed to be perfect - even his mom's going to Australia for two months. But then she hires a Patton of a babysitter, who promptly keels over dead with the money their mom left for the summer. Suddenly Jared has a real job at a video game company, and between trying to keep his brothers and sister from all killing each other, he's spending a lot of time with a cute pizza delivery guy. Oh yeah, did he mention his boss thinks he's 22 rather than 18, and his siblings have used up the last of the company petty cash buying pot, swim gear, and college-level math books, respectively?
Notes: Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead was written by Neil Landau and directed by Stephen Herek. My pastiche is written in affection and no infringement is intended. Title is mine, with apologies to The Cure.
