A/N: If you didn't re-read the first chapter I suggeast doing so. I'm taking a lot of liberties with this chapter, but the basic idea will be there. Also whenever I do anything on Rusty it will be 3rd person POV. I'm not sure why, but I like it that way better.

When Rusty woke up his head was pounding, and his mouth felt like it was full of cotton. While trying to resist the call of sleep, he blearily tried to remember how he'd ended up in his own bed. The absolute worst idea he'd ever had was opening his eyes to the blinding light of the afternoon.

"Urrgh..." Rusty grabbed his head trying to ease out the pain.

"Hey there, drunky." Dale smirked at his room mate's misfortune. Instead of closing the blinds like any normal person, Dale pulled them up the rest of the way.

"Daaaale, c'mon. I'd didn't mean to, lower the blinds please."

"You didn't mean to? I didn't mean to pull the blinds. Just like I'm sure you didn't mean to make the Kappa Tau president take you home."

"What? Who brought me home?" Rusty tried to to sit up, but couldn't quiet yet.

"I think his name was Cappie. He brought you back, changed your clothes, and tucked you in. Don't worry though, I made sure his hands didn't stray."

Rusty was mortified. The president of a house he might pledge for had changed his clothes, and God he'd tucked him in. "What kind of idiot am I?" That was the thought running through his head when Dale told him he'd gotten two bids, but that changed when his head snapped up.

"What! I got two? I wasn't even expecting one." Rusty grabbed at the papers in Dale's hand. One was a nice heavy card with with embossed lettering and the other was a slightly crumpled, fuzzy post-it note. Both telling him he'd have a bid to join if he showed up tonight. He was confused, he thought he'd made an ass of himself at the Kappa Tau house. And the Omega Chi house was... Oh.. Oh. Damn. Suddenly everything came rushing back.

Rusty looked around for anything to quell the headache he had and spotted the asprin and water by his bed. Downing them quickly and changing clothes he told Dale he was leaving.

"Where you going, Rusty?"

"I have to talk to my sister about last night."

"You could talk to me, I've been known to be a good moral adviser."

"Can't, this is about Casey's boyfriend cheating on her." Rusty was glad he'd told him when Dale shut up long enough for him to leave, and soon as he did, Dale was forming a plan to save Evan's immortal soul.

He was dreading trying to talk to Casey. One of them being the ZBZ house, because he still felt the sting of Casey's rage for going inside. The other, the unsteady ground his relationship he had with his sister could crumble if he did this wrong. He really didn't want his sister to hate him, he missed being friends with her. He found himself standing on the front lawn, when a hand grabbed his shoulder.

"Hey Rusty, I think it's time I had a talk with my girlfriend's little brother." The hand on his shoulder belonged to none other than to the Evan Chambers. He was so screwed.

"Ah ha, I'm a little busy. Maybe we could do this some other time. I kind of wanted to ask Casey something." Rusty was squirming under the tight grip.

"Really? Well you can talk to her later. We can go to Dobbler's and talk, loads." Evan draped his arm over Rusty's shoulder and led him to his car. It was a sleek thing, totally expected of a Chambers. Evan opened the passenger door and nodded at Rusty to get in.

The trip to Dobbler's was awkward. It was silent, tense, and plain creepy. It was a relief to finally get to the Greek supporting bar and Rusty practically fell out of the car trying to escape the awkwardness. Evan once again took hold of Rusty's shoulder, but this time a bit lighter, and guided him into the bar. The bar was mostly empty save for a few devoted patrons. Two of them looked vaguely familiar, but Rusty couldn't remember exactly where he'd seen them.

"So, what'd you want to talk to Casey about?" He could tell Evan was feeling out what he knew, and it bothered him.

"Oh you know, last night's happenings. I mean imagine how surprised she'll be when she finds out I received two bids." Evan actually looked a little shocked at that, maybe unnerved?

"Really? I know we offered, but who else." Rusty was quick to answer. "Kappa Tau." Evan looked plain annoyed at that. He asked if Rusty had decided yet.

"Yeah... Maybe. It depends on if you're planning to tell Casey about last night."

Rusty watched as Evan tensed. Watched as he turned his hands into fists and gritted his teeth. "What about last night?" Was the terse reply.

"I saw you and that girl last night. I have to tell Casey if you won't."

Evan groaned. This wasn't the way it was supposed to go. The kid shouldn't have seen anything, and if he had, he should have taken the bribe.

"You said all of that stuff last night. Think about it. We could be your brothers if you don't do anything about this. It was a one time deal, and I'll never let it happen again. I don't even know what happened to me last night."

"I know, but she's my sister. She's been my sister all my life and will be until I die. You guys will only be my brothers from initiation and onwards. I owe her, you owe it to her." Evan slammed his hands on the bar, gathering a little bit of attention.

"Listen here, she doesn't care about you. She never even told anyone she had a brother. You don't owe her anything. You owe me for pulling every string I had to get you a bid for Omega Chi."

It hurt Rusty to think that someone else besides him thought that about his sister. It also hurt to think no one wanted him at Omega Chi, but not nearly as much. With out replying to Evan's outburst, he got up to leave. A hand shot out and held onto his elbow before he could leave first. It was a painful grip, but he ignored it when he saw the desperation on Evan's face.

"Please, what do you want? Money? Position? I can guarantee an in at Omega Chi, you wouldn't have to worry about pledge duties. Please, what do you want?" It was tempting offer, Rusty would admit that, but he could never take it.

"I can't, but I think you should tell Casey. It would be a lot better coming from you." And with that Evan roughly shoved him away, and turned to sit back at the bar. A little startled, but not injured Rusty tapped him on the shoulder.

"In case you didn't notice, I formally decline Omega Chi's bid." And as fast as Evan had caught his arm last time, this was even faster.

"Listen here you little freak, you don't reject us, we reject you." Having finally noticed everyone in the bar staring Evan upped the volume. "If you think we were serious you're sorely mistaken. It was all a joke. We never thought anyone would actually take you, so we were going to make you a pledge and then refuse initiation." With that he let go of Rusty's arm and stared.

Once again stinging from the scathing tone, Rusty didn't know what came over him, but all he could see was red. He didn't know if what he did next was to defend his honor, his sister's, or if a bunch of angry dead college students possessed him, but he was shocked. There was a pledge paddle on the table next to him, obviously getting things set up for the Bid Night party, so he grabbed it. It was heavier than he expected, but he still managed to get a decent swing in at Evan's face.

Unfortunately Evan saw it coming. He managed to avoid most of it, but his nose was hit hard enough to start bleeding. "Son of a bitch!" Evan grabbed his nose and looked at the blood on his hands. Quickly before anyone could stop him he threw a punch into Rusty's face. And anyone can tell you, when someone is less than half the size of the other person, and said giant punches them, they go down. Hard. Everyone was still, too shocked to move. Even Evan looked a little shocked.

Rusty got up faster than he looked ready to. An angry look flowed over his features, and pulled back a fist and let loose. All over Evan's face. The punch wasn't hard, well not hard enough to hurt him permanently. With that the bartender was finally galvanized into action. He pulled Evan away, sat him down at the bar, and put a drink in his line of vision. He turned back around looking for the gutsy kid, but didn't see anyone, and he noticed the door closing.

Rusty had high tailed it out of the bar before anyone could put him in jail for assaulting a Chambers. The pain from the punch wasn't as bad as it could have been, but when it combined with the headache he had, he nearly saw stars. The long walk back to Greek row was awful, but he managed. He needed to tell Casey before Evan could say anything, so there he was standing outside the ZBZ door waiting for Casey to show up.

When he heard the foot steps behind him, he turned around. Casey was annoyed that her brother was standing outside her home, but when he turned and she saw the black eye forming it flew from her mind. "Rusty! What happened?" She rushed forward and turned his face towards her,

"Never mind that Casey, I need to talk to you about Evan." She continued fussing, ignoring his objections. Fed up he grabbed her hands.

"Casey! Listen, I saw Evan and some girl last night. They were about to have sex."

"No they weren't, I'm sure you misunderstood." Rusty quickly objected. "I know what I saw."

"Then you're lying." He looked hard at her. The gaze slightly off due to the rapidly swelling eye. "When have I ever lied to you?"

Casey looked devastated and angry. She wanted to yell at him, but it wasn't his fault. Well not really, but it helped to blame him. "I don't think I can look at you right now. I have to go." She scurried into the house, leaving her brother outside.

Rusty sighed, clearly upset. He checked his watch and saw that he didn't have enough time to go back and change before the party at Kappa Tau. Because while upset about Casey and his whole day in general, he really wanted to join Kappa Tau. He set off for the slightly debilitated looking house on the Greek row. With the thought that maybe things would pick up later on he arrived at his destination.

While being early was always a horrible trait of his, he didn't mean to do it this time. So reluctantly he knocked on the door. Unsure if he'd actually be welcomed in. The door was yanked open and a shocked face was what greeted him. "Spitter, you look like hell."

AN: I know that the bar fight didn't happen like this, but I want it to go this way, so yeah... Well did you like it? Slash soon, hopefully. A little nervous because I've never written it before.
