Miss Queen B: Hey all, thought I try out this story plot that's been wondering in my head for a bit. I got inspired by my new boyfriend and his weird ass brother. There's a little romance, a lot of fighting and it's written in different Point of Views by new characters. It's a good way to get my noggin a jump start and get back to writing my zombie stories. Yay. Enjoy.

The Protector

Chapter One

My Brother's Girlfriend

To the World you are one person, but to one person you are the World." ~ Unknown

I could already see him yelling at me while the police fill out the report and statement. He would walk right into this police station and right up to me and shake his head like he always does when I get in trouble. He would shake his head and say the same thing he would say every time I get in trouble.

"What am I going to do with you, Ryan" he would say.

I sat there in the small something by something jail cell with two other people and stared at my dirty shoes and waited for my brother to come. On the right of me was my buddy, crying this heart out because the police just called his mother and told her that her little boy was caught spray painting bad words all over his High School building. On the record we wouldn't have gotten caught if he would have just kept his cool and wore gloves to hide this paint covered hands when the Police pulled us over.

"His name is Ryan McCann, age seventeen, white, male, blue eyes…." I overheard one of the police man saying while writing it down on paper.

This would be the second time I was put in jail like this. The first time was when I beat up a guy at my school and it got so out of control they had to call the cops on me. The guy got away with a broken nose and a few dozen stitches and I ended up with a police record and a stern talking from my brother. You would think it would be the parents' job to talk to me about my behavior, but sadly that wasn't the case. My parents died in a car crash less than two years ago due to black ice leaving me and my brother alone. We had family, but each of them turn us down because they knew I was a bad egg and didn't want to deal with me. They wouldn't mind taking my older brother but he didn't want to go anywhere without me and besides he was old enough to take care of himself. Being twenty at the time and a good person, he went out and got the court to file him full guardianship of me and to make things 'much better' we moved down to this town to start a new life.

But I'm getting off the subject here, I tend to do that when I'm bored but anyway back to what I was talking about. My brother didn't have time for all this mess, like he told me, because he was too busy working at his job and going to College. Not to mention, and I quote, "I had to cancel my date with Bobbi to come down here to bail you out."

Bobbi was my brother's girlfriend of six months and by the way my brother's been acting, the love of his life. They met at work when it was his job to show Bobbi around the store and met the other associates on her first day. Well one thing led to another and my brother finally grew the balls he needed to ask her out and surprising she accepted. Bobbi was a young twenty year old, who was half white, half Mexican with short black hair and very dark brown eyes. She wasn't super model skinny or dress up in tight, tight clothes and I didn't know what her parents were smoking when they came up with that boy name, but for some reason my brother liked her and I guess I have to be happy with him….

"Ryan, are you alright"

I looked up to see Bobbi standing against the bars wearing some red and blue blouse with bagging paints. She was wearing matching nail polish on both her fingers and toenails and two inch high opened toe sandals. By the way her hair was and make-up it seems she was getting ready for another date with my brother. She gave me a small smile that went well with her blank eyes as she tapped her fingers against the bars.

"Where's my brother" I asked.

"He had to stay late for work because another guy called in" She said, "While I was waiting for him at your house I got a called from the police saying you were in jail"

I lower my head and sigh mostly out of anger because my brother's girlfriend has to bail me out and not him. "Does he know" I asked

"No, if you promise to pay me back we'll keep this to ourselves" She said.

"And if I don't agree with you" I asked

"Well I can just leave you here to rot with your crying friend and that weird guy" She said, smiling.

She can be such a bitch sometimes that stupid, boy-named half-breed who thinks she's all that and knows everything. "So you won't tell my brother about this"

"No, you have my word, I won't tell Tim" Bobbi said.

"Fine" I said.


One Hour Later….

"A two hundred dollar bail out," I shouted, "I don't have that kind of money"

We were standing outside the police station waiting for Bobbi to find her keys in her large purse.

"Shoot, I know I put them in here somewhere" Bobbi said, to herself, "You don't have to pay me back all at once and there's that little thing called a job"

"There goes my iPod money" I said to myself, "and besides, Tim said I don't need a job till I finish school"

"I say you still should get one and help your brother out and make things easier for you and him" Bobbi said.

"Yeah, but keeping up with school is hard enough" I said, taking out a cigarette from my pocket. "Do you have a lighter?"

"You're not smoking in my car" She said, and I gave her an ugly look. "So what's going to happen to your friend?"

"His mother is going to pick him up, probably get his ass kick by his dad while his mom cries "woe is me" because she has no idea where she went wrong upon raising her son"

"You put a lot of thought in that one didn't you" She asked.

"I was bored," I said, tucking the cigarette behind my ear.

"Drive safely, Miss, and hurry home there seems to be a lot of disturbance going on around here" A police cop said, as he was heading out. It looked like he was on his way home and I have a feeling it was the same guy who arrested me. He gave me an ugly yet stern look and yeah I was right.

"This is Corpus Christi, Texas, there a lot of crime here" I said really smug-like.

"Not really, I find it a safe place to live" Bobbi said, smiling a bit at the officer, "Thanks for the tip"

"If I didn't know better I think you were flirting" I whispered to her while we walked over to her car.

"Don't be silly, I don't flirt" Bobbi said

I got into the car and slammed the door pretty hard. Bobbi looked at me with a disapprove face but calmly got in and close the door. "Put your seatbelt on, please" She said, bucketing herself in.

"I don't think so" I said.

"Ryan, just because you had a bad night doesn't mean you have to be an ass hole to me" She said.

"I am, wow, and I thought I was being a jackass" I said, laughing.

Bobbi looked at me and turned the car one and put it in reverse. I looked out at the police station as she exits the parking lot and into the streets.

"Of course I can be an asshole by telling my brother that you were flirting with that police guy." I said with a clever smirk.

"I wasn't flirting and you know it" she said.

"Whatever but it's ok, like they say you're only in trouble if you get caught" I said.

"You should listen to your own advice sometimes, Ryan" Bobbi said, chuckling.

"that's not funny, miss flirty" I said.

"I love you brother too much to flirt but if you're the type of men that likes it when a woman cheats on her boyfriends for a one night stand with some stranger then you can talk to my cousin" Bobbi said, in a serious tone.

I shook my head and looked down to see what radio station she had on when I noticed a sliver bracelet shining in the moonlight with a large blue heart shaped gem dinging in the air. "Another gift from my brother" I asked.

"oh the bracelet, yeah, he gave it to me last week. It was also the first time he told me he was falling in love with me" She said, with a small smile and a blush.

"No wonder he didn't have enough money to buy me those new clothes" I said, in a smug way.

Bobbi looked at with a blank face but she quickly look back at the road. Two police cops pass us with their sirens on and quickly disappeared in the dark. A minute later, a fire truck zooms by but went down another direction. "Something going on around here" Bobbi said.

"That's normal, you should know that by now" I said.

"I've only been here for ten months" She said, "I don't know much about the town"

"that's enough time to get out and explore, duh" I said.

"I guess but I lived a military life thanks to my dad so this is the first time I've been off a safe Base housing"

"That's why you have virgin eyes, you never seen a violent town and all the ugly smug people and blood and guts spilled all over the floor from cops and drive-by shooting" I said, making a scary, evil laughing.

"Stop that, you look like an idiot," Bobbi said, "and you're not scaring me"

I rolled my eyes and stared out the window, "Thank goodness this ride is almost over, you can drop me off at my house and be on your way and do whatever you do at night"

"oh no, I'm not going to leave you alone at your house, who knows what trouble you might get into" Bobbi said, in a firm but joke like tone.

"I can't get in trouble at my own house" I said, rasing my voice a bit.

"Yeah but I know Tim should be home soon and I don't want him to think I got tired of waiting for him." She said.

"I would like it better if you would just leave when you dropped me off"

"I could tell Tim about the two hundred dollar you owe me for bailing you out" She said.

"You're a bitch, you know that" I said.

She knew I didn't like her but she said that if I have to put of with you with be with your brother so be it. I lost count how many times I called her a bitch and I think after the first twenty times she gotten use to it. Sometimes I think she enjoys making me suffer in hopes when I call her that awful word Tim would be there and punch me in the face. She has a lot of patients so she wouldn't mind waiting for that to happen.

"So I've heard but come on-" She said, as she drove up my drive way.

The house was still dark so I guess my brother wasn't home yet. I could hear the police sirens again but this time it sounded like it was only a couple of blocks away.

"What's the worst that could happen if I stay here with you…."
