thanks for the reviews and i was doing some thinking I'm thinking I'll have Logan resemble a younger Josh Hutcherson

Chapter 12:

They arrived back to the apartments about an hour later of spending their time eatting breakfast with Lucy and Lindsay.

Preston noticed his sister Courtney sitting on the floor, and leaning up against his apartment door, she was texting on her phone.

"Hey Courtney, what are you doing here?"

"Last week you scheduled me in for lunch, remember?" she pushed herself off the ground. Preston noticed Jo giving him a look.

"Jo, this is my sister Courtney, she was five when you last seen her."

"Nice meeting you again Jo, and who's this little girl?" the woman smiled.

"She's my adoptive daughter and she's thirteen."

"So are you and Preston dating now? He seems happier from the last time I saw him."

"Yeah, we got together last night."

"That's great, I told him he'd have you in no time, he didn't believe me."

Preston sighed and Jo kissed his cheek, "Not to worry Preston, I had my doubts too."

"Glad I wasn't the only one. When are me and you going out for lunch?" he asked his sister.

"Well if I knew you and Jo were dating I would have checked up with her. We can all go out to lunch together, in an hour. If that's okay with you Jo."

"That sounds like a good idea, well, see you all in an hour."

"Okay," Preston nodded giving Jo a short kiss. "Don't miss me too much."

"That shouldn't be a challenge," she winked.

"Gosh you guys are too cute."

"Let's get inside," Preston opened his apartment door as Logan and Courtney headed inside.

Ellie gave Preston a hug, "Bye, and if you hurt my mother in any way, I'm starting to know how to make a death seem like an accident."

"Don't worry Ellie, I'm not going to hurt your mother, ever. And you are not very intimidating. I'm glad how protective over her you are."

"Sometimes she's too protective," Jo opened her apartment door. "Ellie, you want to go inside alone for a minute?"

"Just so you guys can make out, I don't mind when you guys do that."

"Ellie," Jo groaned looking at her daughter.

"Fine, I'll go inside," Ellie glanced at Preston once more before leaving.

"Kids these days," Jo sighed, leaning against the wall. "Do I have to get an appointment for us to do stuff together?"

Preston ran a hand down her cheek, "Depends on what you want to do."

Jo grasped his hand into hers, "Tomorrow after work I was thinking that we could go out on a date."

"I could make that happen for you. Do you want to go anywhere special, or just wherever?"

"Wherever, as long as it isn't McDonald's."

"Oh no, I'm going to treat you right, you deserve it Jo. I have a pretty good idea of where we should go for our date."

"I'll hold you to it."

"Try not to have to work too late either. I don't like it when you have to work late."

"Me either, so hopefully it will be an easy day for me."

"Want me to tell Detective Taylor to not let you work late?"

"I can tell him myself, well I should get back to Ellie before she thinks we're doing more than talking."

"Alright," Preston wrapped his arms around her waist, as she leaned forward, so that their lips moved together, their tongues battling for dominance. Her arms wrapped around his neck as his hands slid down over her ass, squeezing it slightly. "Firm," he whispers as he pulls back, and he positions his lips below her ear, nibbling at the soft, tender flesh.

"Preston," she moans, as he pulls back slowly, not wanting that moment to end.

"I got carried away, didn't I?" he looks down at her, worried about his actions.

"No, not at all, just felt like it was leading somewhere and I had to stop myself for just taking you right here, right now in the hall," her hand caressed his cheek. "I still can't believe that we are dating."

He nodded, resting his hand on hers, "Me either, but don't worry like I told Ellie, I'm not going to hurt you, in any way. I like you too much for that."

"I know you do Preston, you're an amazing guy," she kissed his cheek. "I like you a lot, and I'm thrilled that we're finally together."

"Me too," he brushed her lips softly, before removing his hand from hers. "Well I should go, I guess I have a lot to talk about to Courtney now."

"At least it's your sister and not my daughter," Jo smirked. "See you soon."

"Alright, see ya," he kissed her breathlessly once more before Jo headed inside.

He ran a hand through his hair, when she was inside. I am completely in love with that woman, Preston thought to himself as he went inside his apartment.

"Hey Preston, what a big smile you have," Courtney grinned. "You are so in love with her."

Preston nodded, "I can finally admit that now, I haven't been this in love with any other woman before."

"Do I sense that there is going to be a marriage happening?"

He didn't really think that far into the future, "A little soon to be talking about marrying her, isn't it?"

"Oh, you know it's going to happen eventually, a love like one you have for Jo doesn't happen often. Trust me, this relationship is going to last," she kissed her brother's cheek.

"You thinking that means the world to me, I love how fond you are of Jo."

"Well if she makes you this happy, anyone should be fond of her."

"I love you Courtney," Preston gave his sister a hug, kissing the top of her head.

"I love you too, and promise that whatever happens you'll love Jo forever and always."

"There was never a doubt on that sis," he smirked. Preston was so in love with Jo, he didn't know what he was going to do with himself.

This may be one of my favorite chapters dealing with this story... I'm as in love with it as Preston is in love with Jo. So do you like getting more of a glance with his sister Courtney? and of course more sweet moments of Preston and Jo to come... I'm so excited :)
