A few hours later they pulled up to a two floor house, there was a van and
a motor cycle parked out front of the house and two teenage boys playing
basket ball in the open space of the driveway.
"Whose motorcycle?" Ray asked as they got out of the car.
"My big brother's." Janine said walking towards the boys.
"Hey Aunt J!" Said one, giving her a hug.
"Hi boys. Danny, John this is Ray, Peter, and Egon."
"Hey you're the Ghostbusters!" Said Danny.
"Aunt J, you never told us that you worked with the Ghostbusters. Ma just said that you had another dead end job." John said.
"Oh she did, did she?"
"Way to go John, I think you just started world war three." Danny quirked.
"Don't listen to what ma says Aunt J. Everyone's in the back yard."
"Elaborate on everyone please." Janine asked.
"Grams and PaPa, Ma, Uncle Harry and his latest bimbo."
"Oh what happened to Candy?"
"Ran off with some dentist or something." John joked.
"Okay boys, I'll talk to you two after I kill your mother."
"Aunt J. Will you show John how to shoot a basket first?" Danny asked.
"Give me the ball." Janine said, Danny threw her the basket ball. She dribbled twice then effortlessly made the net of the hoop swish. "Nothing but net." She smirked. She led the guys to the back yard where a picnic table was sitting out.
"Janine!" Her mother exclaimed getting up and giving her a hug. Janine's mom looked a lot like her daughter, same red hair, same eyes, and the same accent. "Morty, tell the kids that their sister's here!" her mother shouted into the open door.
"Ma this is Ray and Peter, and you've met Egon before."
"Nice to see you again Egon."
"You too Mrs. M."
"Oh please call me Betsy. So Mrs. Fine told me that you didn't go to temple on Friday." Betsy said, turning back to her daughter.
"Ma I couldn't, I was busy."
"And no special someone yet?"
"Ma do we have to do this now?"
"I'm just asking, I would like more grandchildren before I die."
"Leave Jeannie alone." Said her brother, coming out of the house.
"Harry!" Janine exclaimed, going to her brother and giving him a big hug.
"Hey kid, how've ya been?" Egon, Ray, and Peter just watched this, they hardly ever saw Janine show so much emotion.
"Hey save some of that love for me." Said Janine's sister coming out of the house.
"Dead end job? That's what you're telling my nephews?" Janine asked, giving her older sister a hug.
"I never..."
"Yeah you did Franny, remember a few minutes ago..." Fran stepped on her brother's foot causing him to shut up. "Or maybe you didn't, my mistake." Harry said, moving behind Janine.
"Guys this is my brother Harry and my sister Fran. This is Egon, Ray and Peter. My employers of that dead end job Fran."
"Oy, let it go Jeannie." Fran said exasperatedly.
"Well, let me show you where you're going to stay." Said Betsy leading them inside.
"There are two beds in the spare room and two in Janine's old bedroom. So you can decide amongst yourselves. Janine, no funny business!" Her mother said, eyeing Egon. She turned and left them at the rooms.
"Funny business Jeannie?" Peter asked, giving Egon the same look that Betsy had.
"When did you meet Janine's mom before?" Asked Ray with the same curiosity that Peter had.
"Janine and I were at the movies before and ran into her parents there." Egon explained. Ray and Peter exchange glances again.
"So where's the spare room Jeannie?" Peter asked, grinning at her. She took them down the hall to a nicely decorated bedroom.
"I got this bed." Ray said, putting his duffle bag down on the bed.
"This one's mine." Peter said, sitting down on the other bed. "I wanna see Jeannie's room."
"I wanna know why they call you Jeannie?" Ray asked.
"Just a nickname from when I was little." Janine said while leading them down to the other end of the hall. She opened the door to the room and walked in. "This used to be my room." Janine said, putting her bag down on one of the beds.
"Very nice." Venkmen said, poking around the room. "D'you use to have boys sneaking through the window?"
"Are you crazy? My parents would've killed me. Boys waited around the corner while I sneaked out." Janine smiled. They had never really talked about their pasts, so none of the guys knew about Janine's past experiences. (A.N.- This fact will mean something later in the story, just go with it...)
"I'll bet you were a real wild child when you were younger." Peter teased her. She just shrugged.
"Dinner time!" Betsy shouted up the stairs.
"Okay Ma!" Janine shouted back.
"And we all know where Janine gets her shouting from now." Ray said slyly. The other two guys chuckled and followed Janine and Ray out of the room and back to the picnic table.
"Oh Jeannie, this is my girlfriend Skye." Harry introduced the tall brunette to his sister.
"Hello." Janine said, sitting down in between Egon and Ray.
"Janine, come help me with this." Her mother called from inside the house. Janine stood up and went into the house. A few moments later Betsy came outside, Janine was nowhere in sight and her mother looked somewhat upset.
"What's wrong ma?" Harry asked, knowing that the look his mother wore meant that something was wrong. "Where'd Jeannie go?"
"Angie just called... you remember her brother works at the police station?" She was talking to her husband and two children, hardly aware of the other people sitting at the table. "Well he thought that she should let us know that Ricky Adler is out of prison."
"Whose motorcycle?" Ray asked as they got out of the car.
"My big brother's." Janine said walking towards the boys.
"Hey Aunt J!" Said one, giving her a hug.
"Hi boys. Danny, John this is Ray, Peter, and Egon."
"Hey you're the Ghostbusters!" Said Danny.
