Author's Note: So, this is Jordi/OC, kinda. I wrote in Leo's sister, because how could I not? A small pinch of Lemma. Part one of a two shot.

Hey, Bro: Part 1

"Leo? Leeeeoooo?" A voice called as a head poked around the door into 'The Swamp' as Leo had dubbed it.

"Um, hi." Jordi said awkwardly, offering a weak wave.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I was looking for Leo. I must have gotten lost. Again." She sighed and her face took on a dejected expression.

"No!" He exclaimed quickly, trying to get her to stop frowning. For some reason, seeing her frown made it hard for him to breathe right.

"I mean, you aren't lost. I'm Leo's roommate." Jordi rushed. Her frown faded to a worried expression.

"Okay, do…do you know where he is?" She asked timidly, looking at the ground now.

"He's at PT right now, but he should be back soon." Jordi offered, and the girl looked more relieved. Then, she glanced towards his dresser and smiled.

"You play cards?" He nodded. "Ever played Texas hold'em?"

"You're on."

Leo limped back to his room, his prosthetic leg paining him greatly. What he stumbled upon was probably the weirdest thing he had seen all day. And he lived in a hospital, where weird had a very different meaning than usual.

His sister was sitting with Jordi on Jordi's bed. They had empty boxes of jellybeans scattered on the floor, and they were intently staring at handfuls of cards as they sat cross-legged on the bed.

"Hiya." Leo said loudly, unsure if his presence were welcome.

"Leo!" His sister leapt from the bed and dashed over to crush him in a hug.

"Skylar. I Can't. Breathe." He wheezed between sentences.

"Sorry." She said, and her grip softened, but her arms remained stubbornly around her brother. He grinned and gently encircled her in a matching hug.

"I missed you." She whispered. He smiled and gave her a squeeze.

"Ditto, kiddo." He said, smiling at what he knew would follow.

"I'm only two minutes younger than you are!" She said indignantly, pulling away to stand in front of him, hands on her hips.

"Still my little sister." Leo grinned crookedly. Skylar huffed and crossed her arms.

"Sister?" Jordi said, capturing the twins' attention.

"Jordi, meet my twin sister Skylar. Skylar, this is my new roommate, Jordi." Leo said.

Skylar studied her brother, noting his grimace.

"Oh, Leo! Geez, I'm goofing around with you and your fake leg must be killing you. Sit down already." She pulled one of his arms over her shoulder and helped him onto his bed.

She sat next to him as he fussed with the mechanics. Once it was off, his face relaxed. Jordi couldn't help but note the ease with which Skylar accepted the prosthetic. Even seasoned nurses sometimes looked at patients with pity, but she never looked at Leo with anything other than fondness.

He noted her wavy chestnut hair, which was a shade darker than Leo's eyebrows. She had deep brown eyes, like melted dark chocolate. She had a round face, creamy pale skin, and a bright smile. She was a few inches shorter than Leo, meaning she was shorter than he was as well. She seemed younger than she actually was, probably because she was so cheery.

"So, Leo, you've been leaving things out of your emails." Skylar said, breaking the comfortable silence that had draped the room.

"Not really." Leo replied. Skylar rolled her eyes.

"Yeah, sure. Let's see: I didn't hear about the roommate, or the nice new nurse, or how about the crazy blond who moved in with Charlie?" She counted off on her fingers.

"I told you about the new leg, does that count?" Leo asked sheepishly.

"No."

"Well, in all fairness, you bet all my fresh jellybeans in a card game." Leo joked, nudging her shoulder.

"Oh please, like I wasn't going to win. Plus, you know I presorted all of them just how you like. I only bet the bad flavors." She grinned, shooting Jordi a wink. His brow wrinkled in confusion.

"What do you mean 'bad flavors'?" he asked.

"Never play cards with a Harry Potter nerd." She said with a smile and a shrug. Jordi looked and noticed that the boxes were all purple with gold stars on them. He experimentally tasted a green jellybean that he had assumed was watermelon.

Skylar and Leo burst into laughter when he spit it out.

"That tastes like lawn clippings." He grimaced. Leo shook with laughter and Skylar was giggling ridiculously hard. If Jordi weren't so embarrassed, he might find it…okay, he still found it really cute.

"Grass." Skylar said, before giggling again.

"So, Leo, ready for our lunch date?" Skylar turned to her brother, who had managed to stop laughing.

"Yeah, just let me grab my crutches." He reached for where they were leaning against his bedside table.

"It was great meeting you, Jordi. We can finish the game later, I hope?" she asked, smiling shyly. Jordi was dazed before his brain caught up to the words.

"Yeah. Yeah." He said enthusiastically, and he was rewarded with a bigger grin from Skylar.

"Great. I'll see you around."

"So, spill." Skylar pointed her fork at Leo.

"What do you mean, sis?" Leo hedged, but he was smiling.

"How are things with you and Emma? Have you talked to her yet?"

"Yeah…we decided to stay friends." He sighed.

"Is that what you wanted?" Skylar questioned gently.

"Not really." Leo said, going back to picking at his food. Skylar gave a sympathetic grimace. Then she adopted her thoughtful face.

"What are you thinking?" he asked, poking her shoulder.

"Does she still wear the hat? The one I sent as a joke that you gave to her?"

"Yeah. She usually wears it everywhere."

"Then you're good." Skylar grinned happily. Leo quirked an eyebrow.

"The girl I like-"

"Love." Skylar interrupted.

"Is wearing a hat. I don't see the significance." Leo pretended not to have heard her.

"A hat that you gave her. That she wears every day. Leo, she still likes you. From what you told me, she's scarred that she isn't good enough for you, but she still wants to be close to you." Skylar reasoned.

"That's not true!" Leo said, objecting to Emma not being good enough.

"Of course it isn't. She is so ridiculously out of your league, you couldn't possibly do better."

"Gee, thanks." He grumbled, but Skylar gave him a smile. He sighed and grinned back at her.

"Speaking of out of someone's league…it seemed like you let Jordi think he had a shot with you."

Skylar spit her milk back into her cup and coughed.

"What?" She looked alarmed, but Leo could see her cheeks turning pink. His grinned widened.

"You do like him." He gloated, earning him a glare.

"I just met him today."

"Hey, Emma and I were in that closet by the end of the second day-"

"Gah, I don't want to know!" Skylar covered her ears.

"Calm down, sis." He chuckled. Skylar reluctantly lowered her hands.

"If it helps, I think he likes you too." He said, sipping his drink carefully.

"Thanks, but it doesn't help because I just met him." Skylar said, smiling timidly.

"Whatever you say. But no closets."

"Leo!"
