This Story Is An AU (The Year Is 1994 in early February)

Joseph Anoa'i was in the backseat of his parents' car with both adults in the front seats. The five year old boy was playing with an action figure his dad had gotten for him when the car stopped outside an old looking building. He watched his parents get out of the car and his dad came to the back to unbuckle him from his seat. Lifting his son into his arms, Sika carried him to the doors of the building.

"Where are we going dad?" Joe asked as his dad set him down on his feet and took his hand to hold.

"To get your new little brothers." Sika answered as he led his son and wife inside the building.

At a desk was a young woman who gave them a friendly smile as she stood up. The woman asked for their last name as she went over to a filing cabinet. She received the file for the Anoa'i family to then lead them down a hallway.

"Both of them are special cases. We've only had them a month and they refuse to be separated. When we saw that you both wanted more than one child, we knew you were right for them. Do any of you happen to speak Spanish?"

"We both do." Patricia answered.

"After testing their blood, we found that they are half brothers of less than seven months apart. Looks as if the father had a type since both of the boys' mothers are Spanish from Spain that could barely speak or even understand english."

"The mothers didn't want them?" Sika asked hoping his son hadn't heard.

"Sadly one wasn't at all mother material while the other couldn't care for her son. We were lucky to get a hold of them even though states apart. At your request for a child and fitting what the two need, we had them transferred here."

"Good. I hope they like us." Patricia whispered as they entered a small room with two small beds and some toys.

"Boys, come over here please." the young woman said out loud in Spanish.

Slowly two young boy came out from under the bed with nervous looks on their faces. One boy had dark brown hair while the other one had light brown. They stood there nervously holding each others hands as a way they developed to comfort themselves.

"Colby, Jon; these people wish to adopt the both of you." the woman told them in Spanish.

"Adopt?" the dark brown haired boy tilted his head as he said the word in Spanish.

"Si." Sika spoke in Spanish to have them look at him. "We want you two in our family."

Both boys walked over for Joe to go running up to them with a curious look in his brown eyes. He held his hand out to them as they looked at him confused.

"I'm Joe. Your big brother."

"He is your new big brother." the woman translated in Spanish to them.

"Colby." the dark brown haired boy said.

"Jon." the lighter haired boy added.

"Would you like to be apart of our family?" Patricia asked them in Spanish.

"Okay." both answered.

"Joe. Why don't you take your brothers' hands to lead them down the hall." Sika suggested to his son who nodded.

He took his new brothers' hands to started leading them down the hallway. Sika and Patricia met them at the front desk to fill out paperwork before they could leave with Jon and Colby. Once all done, the boys were led out to where the car was parked. All three were buckled into the carseats before Sika and Patricia got into their own seats in the front. Sika began to drive away from the building as Joe talked to his new brothers. Sadly both couldn't fully understand him and just had confused looks. At seeing that, Patricia translated everything to Jon and Colby for them to now understand. Soon the family arrived at the Anoa'i house for Jon and Colby's eyes to widen.

"This is your home now." SIka said in Spanish as he parked.

They got the boys out of the car to see Joe frown as he looked down. His mom asked what was wrong as Sika led Colby and Jon towards the front door.

"Colby and Jon don't like me." Joe told her.

"That's not true my baby. Both of them just don't know english that well. How about you teach them." Patricia suggested hoping to cheer her son up.

"Okay." Joe went over to take his new brothers' hands. "This is our home."

At the slight confused looks from the younger boys, Joe helped the two learn each english word he taught them. Soon Jon and Colby had an understanding of some simple words in english. Joe showed them to their new bedroom that the two would be sharing.

"I hope you guys like bunk beds." Joe said to see Jon climb to the top one.

"We like." Colby informed slowly in his Spanish accent.

"My bedroom is across from yours." Joe assured. "If you need anything, you can come into my room at any time."

"Thank you Joe." Jon slowly said with his own Spanish accent making them sound different.

"Boys time for lunch." Patricia informed from downstairs in the kitchen.

The three boys went down the stairs to where the kitchen was by Joe guiding the younger two. On the table was plates of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches along with cups of fruit punch. All the boys sat at the table to start eating the lunch their mom had made for them.

"How old are you both?" Joe asked Colby and Jon.

Patricia translated in Spanish to the two boys who now understood the question. Three fingers were held up by Colby while Jon held up same number of three fingers.

"I'm five." Joe said along with holding up all five of his fingers on one hand.

When the boys were done with lunch, they went out to the backyard to start playing with each other. A rubber dodge ball was tossed by Joe for Colby to catch and then toss to Jon. From a door, Sika put his arms around his wife as they watched the boys. It was a relief that Joe easily accepted Colby and Jon along with helping them through their language differences. Both knew that together the three could achieve whatever they wanted to. At the front door opening for them to hear, both saw Sika and Patricia's oldest son Matt walk over. He noticed the three boys knowing that his parents were adopting two.

"How are they adjusting?" Matt asked.

"Good. Joe has really been acting as such a good big brother to Jon and Colby since meeting them. You taught him so well with that." Patricia told him with a proud tone.

"I'll go introduce myself to my new baby brothers."

Matt walked out to the backyard for Joe to see him first and go running right over to him. The boy was picked up easily in his big brother's arms to give a tight hug to the young man. Both Jon and Colby stayed where they stood watching the two.

"Matt, these are our new little brothers, Colby and Jon."

"Nice to meet the both of you." Matt greeted to them in Spanish.

Slowly the two boys walked over to their new eldest brother. He set Joe down to be crouched in front of them with his hands out. Both of them each took a hand to see Matt smile at them taking to him without much problem.

"What were you guys playing out here?" Matt asked as he stood up.

"Just catch." Joe answered.

"Sounds fun."

The boys went back to throwing the ball around with Matt joining in to all three of his little brothers' happiness. Hours later, the three boys had eaten dinner, cleaned up, and changed into their pajamas. Colby and Jon laid in one of their beds looking at holding hands and Joe had decided to share the bed with them since it was their first night. Entering the bedroom were Sika and Patricia to tuck the three boys in. After tucking them in, they made sure the guard rails are okay incase one of them happened to roll in their sleep. Kisses were set on the top of the boys' heads while saying goodnight. A nightlight kept the room from being in total darkness for the boys to feel safe as they slept. Soon they were all asleep faster than the two youngest have in so long at feeling safe with their new family.
