Happy(belated)Valentines Day everybody! :D Your Valentines Day present from me to you! Please do enjoy! ;)

"Mornin' everybody!" chirped an elated Raz as she hoped into the dining room.

"Good morning sweetheart." grinned Louise as she swept her daughter into a hug.

"Hello love." smiled Hugh as he entered the cave from outside. "Now then, you know what day it is don't you?" he grinned as he pulled two bouquets, one in each of his arms, behind his back causing Louise and Raz to squeal with delight.

"One for each of my special ladies."

"Oh Hugh!" chuckled Louise. "You shouldn't have!"

"Nothing is too good for my girls!" declared Hugh as he embraced his wife and daughter.

"I love them Daddy!" sighed Raz holding the flowers up to her nose. "They're so pretty! Thank you!"

"You're welcome darling." Hugh patted his daughter's head just as he saw Bryce, who seemed to be pacing, come in.

"Happy Valentines Day Brycey boy," Hugh acknowledged his son's presence. "I've got something for you too." he hopped towards the tall wad of leaves, sapped together to form a blanket. "You've had that old punching bag since you were a joey and since you're a male now, I've decided that perhaps it was time too-"

"Dad!" sighed an exasperated Bryce. "Can't this wait 'til later?" Hugh shot Bryce a surprised look, triggering the guilt in the young male's face. "I'm sorry Dad, I'm just pretty busy at the moment. I'll check the present out at noon, I promise." without casting another look at his father, Bryce hopped back into his room leaving the confused Hugh with Louise and Raz.

"I don't know what that was all about." Hugh scratched his head. "He's always nuts about boxing."

Louise placed a reassuring paw on Hugh's shoulder. "Dear, it's not like that at all." she then grew a please look on her face. "Hugh, I'm starting to think that maybe Bryce is seeing someone special."

"You mean?" Hugh already knew the possible answer but he wanted to make sure. Louise's head confirmed it and the couple laughed happily.

"What?" squeaked a confused Raz. "Who can be more special than us? What's so funny?"

"Raz, your mother and I are thinking that Bryce has found himself a girl." replied Hugh, the smile not leaving his face.

"A girl?" repeated Raz. "What girl?" what girl could he possibly like better than her?

"We don't know yet darling." said Louise. "We'll just have to be patient in finding out."

As the happy kangaroo couple danced with delight and shared a couple of kisses, Raz sat on her stone chair pouting and looking at her parent's mushy-gushy display in disgust, but mostly she felt a slight pinch of envy cook up inside of her. She might not know who this "special girl" of Bryce's is but she was going to find out. With that, the little Sheila left her seat and hopped off to her brother's room for answers.

…

Bryce was constantly pacing around, muttering unintelligibly to himself. He seemed very occupied in whatever he was doing. That is until someone interrupted him.

"HI BIG BROTHER!" chimed Raz as she jumped onto Bryce's back, startling him.

"Haven't you heard of knocking?!" he exclaimed, still shocked at his sister's sneak attack.

"Sorry." blushed Raz as she hopped off his back and started to circle him.

"So whatcha doin'?" she asked.

"Nothin'." huffed Bryce.

"It don't look like nothin'."

"Nothin' that I can tell anybody yet."

"Really? Not Mummy or Daddy or even ME?"

"At least not now."

"Then when?"

"I don't know."

"How come?"

"Gosh Raz, I don't have the answer to everything, please just leave me alone for now."

"Why don't you have the answer?" Raz still continued her innocent questioning.

"Raz, please, I asked nicely. Twice."

"Do you have a girlfriend?" Raz finally spilled the question out.

Bryce's face suddenly turned red. "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Dad was wondering why you were acting weird and Mum said that she thinks that you're seeing someone special and first I couldn't figure out who that special someone was. Then Mum said that it might be because you're seeing a girl and it had me wondering. Is it someone I know, is she pretty and nice? What about smart? Is she better than me? Because I honestly can't think of someone who can possibly be-"

"RAZ!" Bryce cut off his sister's rant with a growl. "GET OUT OF MY ROOM!"

"But I was just-"

"NOW!"

Shrieking with fright, Raz zoomed out of the room, terrified with her brother's temper. He's never yelled at her before. Sure they've had their occasional feuds but he never got this angry with her before.

Raz wasn't the only one feeling surprised that this sudden outburst of rage. Bryce's face changed from frustration to shame as he heard a sniffle coming out from his little sister. He never meant to shout at her like this, but her constant question just became so overwhelming he couldn't take answering them anymore! Bryce immediately stopped his pacing and just moved to the corner to sulk, just like he did when he was still a joey.

…

Despite how hurt Raz was at Bryce's tantrum, she decided she was going to take it like a big girl.

"So what if Bryce did find somebody who's better then me?" she grumbled as she wiped a tear that trickled down from her eyes. "If he wants to spend time with someone who's not me then fine. I'll just go and see what the boys are up too."

Shedding her final tear, Raz held her head up straight and went to meet with her friends.

I know what you're all thinking, "Damn Bryce, this isn't like you at all!" Well siblings do still have spats, even if it's with ones who are close to each other and I wanted to represent that with Raz and Bryce. And I just see Raz as the typical little sister who's jealous of her big brother's girlfriend. Don't worry they'll make up.

I'll see you guys soon!
