Anthony David and William Robert Tony and Billy for short also in honor of their friends. Their daughter's name id Amelia Abigail Abbie to Brenda Am to everyone else. Tony, Billy, Amelia and Evelyn are all 18 and Danny junior is 19. *


"Easy on the throttle D.J. you'll over flow the engine." Anthony shouted into the mouth piece
"I can handle it Tony." His friend shot back
"Tony's right D.J. your gonna stall it." Rafe's oldest son told him
"Jesus Billy I know what I'm doing." Junior croaked as the propeller started to sputter. "Shit I got trouble. I just lost my engine. I'm a dead stick."
Anthony and William landed their small single passenger planes on the runway and booked it in the direction their friend had gone. The surprising thing was when they found him there wasn't a scratch on him or his plane.
"Walker how in the hell did you pull that off?" Billy asked patting D.J. on the back
"I'm the best damn pilot you'll ever meet." He answered arrogantly.
"No boy you were taught by the best." Danny senior and Rafe had been listening to the scene on the radio and came running to make sure everyone was okay.
"Sorry Uncle Rafe." He responded to the scolding
"Danny you ever put one of my planes in jeopardy again I'll kill you." His father continued the thrashing.
"Sorry Dad." D.J. turned and walked away Tony and Billy following to tell him how cool he was.
"He is the best damn pilot I've ever scene." Rafe said turning to Danny
"I know just don't tell him." Danny answered. And it was true little Danny who was not so little anymore had fantastic skill learning his fathers knowledge and understanding of the working of the plane and Rafe's ability to feel the plane.

Annaly put her nursing bag down on the kitchen counter and heaved a sigh at that pile of dishes that still sat in the sink.. She walked out the back door and out to hanger where her husband and stepson were standing along with Rafe and Anthony and Billy.
"Daniel James Walker." She shouted tying an apron around her waist. To identical faces turned to her though one was twenty some odd years older.
"Yeah?" They both responded
"The older one."
"Yes honey." Danny said walking over and placing a soft kiss on her cheek
"Don't try to butter me up I asked you to do the dishes. Danny go get your sister."
"D.J. mom everyone calls me D.J." Her stepson replied slightly attitudish.
"I'll start call you Daniel James if you talk to me like that go find your sister."
"Annaly if you're home does that mean Brenda's"
"Rafe Steven McCawley!" Echoed across the field
"What'd she ask you to do?" Annaly questioned giving him a knowing glare
"Laundry." He answered setting off toward his house.

The two families were sitting around picnics tables as Danny and Rafe demonstrated that they were masters of the grill.
"We going to the movies tonight Am?" D.J. asked pulling her closer to him. Amelia McCawley was one the most beautiful girls in Shelby with Rafe's hazel eyes, Brenda petite frame and long pin straight brown hair with auburn highlights. Every guy at their high school would give their right arm to be dating her and D.J. was the only one that got to do it.
"Sure." She sighed leaning her head on his shoulder
"John and I our going to the creek tonight." Eve said to no one in particular fluffing her dark blonde hair.
"Oh no you are not." D.J. told his little sister "Hey Tony, Billy you hear that? Eve thinks she's going to the creek with John tonight."
"Cut it out D.J." Amelia elbowed her boyfriend in the stomach "We'll go with you Evelyn."
"I don't need a chaperone Am." She snapped at her best friend
"So consider it a double date. Billy, Tony why don't you guys bring Jessica and Mary?"

Rafe over heard the conversation and leaned over to whisper in Brenda-Jean's ear
"We've got the house to ourselves tonight."
"Hmm." Was her response
