"Why is Peter walking toward us?" Brian asked as they were setting up their stuff at the beach.
"Because I invited him." Anne stated. "Come on Brian. You've never even given him a chance. He's a real nice guy."
Brian suddenly realized that he had four angry female faces staring at him. "Okay, I'll play nice! I only asked a question."
"That's my guy." Beth smiled snuggling up with him on the blanket they had just put down.
"Hey I'm going to get a soda, anybody want anything?" Violet asked. After a round of "No's" Violet headed off.
"Hi," Peter smiled as he lightly kissed Anne on the cheek. "I was wondering if you wanted to take a walk."
"That sounds great, but," Anne started.
"Don't worry about deserting us." Jess assured her. "Beth and Brian will be making out most of the afternoon and Violet's soda will turn into an entire barbeque. We'll save you a hot dog. Now go."
"Sure I'd love to." Anne smiled as she and Peter walked off.
"I swear they would all fall apart without me." Jess sighed.
"Hey I was thinking. How about a barbeque." Violet said coming up. "What's so funny?"
^^^^^^^^^^^^
"So I hope I didn't keep you out too late." Peter stated. "I mean I'd hate to think that I lost the chance to date you because we were a little late."
"No, my grandpa knew I was out with Violet and Jess, so he wasn't worried. Knowing there was a guy would terrify him. He kind of took my parents dating pretty hard. My mom and me look a lot like my grandma and he's just trying to protect his family from evil outside sources."
"What about Brian?"
"He's my uncle on my dad's side. He's just trying to pick up the responsibility of protecting me and being my dad. Sometimes I just wish both of them would lay off. That they could trust me like Jess does. I mean I love them to pieces, but I can take care of myself."
"And take care of other people. I still get the feeling that you're not telling me everything about that night at the Bronze."
"All families have secrets. I'm just waiting for the right time to tell you ours. In the mean time, I can already smell those hot dogs. Let's head back and eat."
"Okay I'll let it drop for now, but I really hope you can trust me with your secret. I really want to know everything about you."
"Well you know this." Anne smiled as she started to kiss him and the kiss deepened.
"Because I invited him." Anne stated. "Come on Brian. You've never even given him a chance. He's a real nice guy."
