Sorry for the late update! I hope ya like this chapter; I'm actually having a writer's block so it's not that good... reviews please??

Two weeks has passed and it now was the evening before Angie's first day at school. Bobby was out, probably getting drunk somewhere; as Jerry had put it. Jerry was in the living room, watching Angel do Sudoku. "Man, you really suck at this, you know that?" Jerry chuckled, as he watched his brother's forehead creased and Angel began to erase the number he had just written down.

"Shut up, Jerry." He growled.

"Why are you suddenly so interested in Mathematics? Last I've checked, you hated Mathematics." Jerry grinned. Angel looked down at the small rectangular book in his hands and flipped several pages. "I just like it, ok?" Angel murmured. Jerry chuckled, "I believe you, brother. I believe you," Angel grinned. "Now get the fuck out of here," Angel elbowed Jerry in the stomach.

Jerry laughed and got up from the couch, "If anyone needs me, I'll be in my room!" Jerry stretched and jogged up the stairs. Jack came down after a while. "Hey, Angel," Jack munched on a half eaten apple, "What're you doing?" He plopped next to Angel on the couch and settled his legs on the glass table. "Jack! Feet, off!" Angel playfully scolded him and ruffled up Jack's hair.

Jack gave him a deathly stare, "You're lucky you're bald," and strode out of the room, throwing his three quarter eaten apple up into the air, and catching it back. Angel watched as Jack's figure disappeared into the dining room. Angel smiled to himself, and turned his attention back to the Sudoku puzzle.

"One down… eighty more to go."

Jack walked into the dining table, throwing the apple into the bin nearby. He walked up to the counter and looked at the mirror that was hung there. He looked at his reflection in it, and did his hair properly.

"You're getting vain," Jack heard a playful voice coming from behind. Before he could turn around, he felt two arms wrapped around his stomach, and a soft giggle. "Angie!" he sighed happily. Angie gave him one of her cute grins, "Hi!" Jack smiled down at her.

It had been two long weeks till Angie finally settled in. At least now, she wasn't being her Cinderella self but instead, she was louder and more fun to be around with. "Where's Ma?" Angie puffed her cheeks up and Jack pushed them back down gently, "She's washing the dishes in the kitchen; I was just about to help her. Want to come?" Angie asked, putting her hand in her pocket. Jack sighed.

"What… what's wrong?" The excitement in Angie's voice has disappeared. Jack squat down to her eye level (he was a head and a half taller then her) and smiled at her warmly. "You do know you're a part of the family, aren't you? You don't have to be scared or hide anything at all. I'm always here for you, lil sis." Jack pinched her cheek softly. Angie's lips spread into a small smile.

"Aw, come on! Is that all you've got?" Jack poked her stomach, and Angie laughed. She grinned. Jack smiled at her and hugged her, "I love that smile of yours. Now, let's go help Ma in the kitchen." Angie nodded and skipped off, holding Mika in her hands.

Two hours later

Evelyn, Jerry, Angel, Jack and Angie sat at the dining table, eating. Bobby wasn't there yet. Silence filled the air. You could only hear the clanking of the forks and spoons against the plates and Angie whispering to Mika, resting quietly in her hands. Suddenly, they heard a rough knock at the door. "I'll get it!" Angie scrambled off her chair and ran to open the door. When she did, she got a huge shock. "Oh my God! Bobby!?!" she freaked out. Jerry came running and Angel came too, bringing his plate of spaghetti along. Evelyn walked in, and she got a good shock. Well, all of them did.

Bobby looked a mess. His nose was bleeding, he had a few cuts on his face (the forehead, cheeks and lips) and his right eye was swollen. "Hey, kids!" He grinned at them. His face looked purple. Angie giggled. Bobby reminded her of the Singing Bob Cat in Alice In Wonderland. A cop stood beside Bobby.

"He got into a fight at the bar. Please make sure this will not happen again." He nodded and went off. "Must be a new guy," Jerry said, crossing his arms over his chest, "Not knowing this happens almost every month."

"Fuck yea, he don't know who he messing with!" Bobby tumbled over and went face flat on the floor. "Dude… that had to hurt," Jack twitched his nose in disgust. "Your guitar will be in the bin in you're not careful with your words, lil' fairy!" Bobby's voice, muffled while still lying on the floor face down. Angie giggled. Bobby got up and dumped himself on the couch and tapped on the seat next to him, "Angie, come here," he smiled at her. Angie jumped onto the couch, and gently set Mika on her lap. "You really love that little rat, don't you?" Bobby poked Angie's cheeks. Angie dodged him and poked him back. "Of course, he's my best friend."

Bobby nodded, and leaned back against the couch, "Well, tomorrow you'll have real human proper friends with two hands, a pair of eyes, proper hair and speak the human language."

"Can I bring Mika to school with me?" Angie asked, stroking Mika's soft fur, and Mika squeaked softly.

Bobby looked at Jack, who looked at Jerry, who looked at Evelyn, who then turned to Angel. He was slurping the spaghetti off this plate. He was so engrossed he didn't realize everyone was staring at him until Jerry cleared his throat. Angel looked up from his plate, a little surprised to see everyone staring at him.

"What?" he asked innocently, stuffing a meatball into his mouth.

"Now we know why Sofi always comes over or calls Angel over. He's got skills." Bobby burped. The whole lot except Angie and Angel started laughing. Jack practically screamed with laughter, and fell to the floor, kicking his legs on the floor. He got up, stomped, and lied back down, rolling from left to right repeatedly. Angel stomped off into the kitchen. "What's so funny?" Angie asked, balancing Mika on her little head. "Nothing, darling," Evelyn smiled at her, "Come, let's go to bed. You have to wake up early tomorrow." Angie rubbed her eyes, "But I'm not sleepy…" she murmured, and yawned. Jerry chuckled, "That's so cute."

Jack finally stopped laughing and got off the floor. "I'll take her to the room," he said to Evelyn over his shoulder. Evelyn nodded.

That Night

Jack sat on his bed, strumming his guitar and humming along. Angie went to the bathroom down the hallway. He smiled…

"Ohh, yeah…" He sang, and closed his eyes. Angie was about to enter into the room, but just as she was about to turn the doorknob, she heard him sing softly…

It's times like this when I wish you were here,
You were my light, you'd take away all of my fears,
It's times like this when I wish I could heal,
But I don't know… ohh…
Maybe time will tell what I feel…

Can you feel the warm heat from the sun on your face?
Can you feel the clouds move up, high in the sky….

(A/N: I wrote this song, didn't get it anywhere else)

He stopped, "Damn it… wrong chord…" Angie decided to walk in.

"That was a nice song you played, Jack," she smiled at him. He stared up at her, his mouth hanging open. "You were listening from outside?"

"Yea… I was. It was good." Angie grinned at him. Jack slapped his forehead, "You shouldn't have been listening!" Angie moved back a little. "I'm sorry," she whispered, "Are you mad at me?" Jack sighed and put his guitar down, "I'm not mad at you, Angie, I'm just… it's just that I don't like it when people listen to me play a song when it's not good or finished yet… and the song I just sang wasn't finished and the lyrics were wrong. Next time… please don't listen, ok?" Angie nodded.

"Come here," Jack held out his hand and Angie took it. He pulled her to him and hugged her, resting his chin on top of her little head. He smoothed back her hair and kissed the top of her head, "Go to sleep. You've got school tomorrow."

"I'm scared. I don't want to go to school," Angie mumbled against his chest. Jack chuckled, "I don't either, but we must. Do you want Ma to go to jail? That's what happens to parents who don't send their children to school."

Angie's eyes grew big and she shook her head. Jack smiled at her. "So, what must you do?" he said playfully. "I must go to school," Angie rolled her eyes. Jack laughed and pinched the bridge of her nose, "Very cute. Now, off!"

Angie went onto her bed and sat against the wall, looking out the window. "Jack?" Jack had already switched off the lights and was about to go to bed too. "Yea?"

"Can you tuck me in?"

Jack went up to her and lied her down, and tucked her in. He kissed her forehead and whispered good night. "Night, Jack! I love you," Angie mumbled. Jack whispered back, "I love you too, kid." He went to his bed and lied down. Jack rolled over and fell asleep. Angie lied down and snuggled up to a toy Jerry had bought for her. It was a little chipmunk, which was indeed very cute and cuddly. She soon fell fast asleep.

Next Morning

"No, you are not bringing the mouse."

"But I want to!"

"No, Angie!"

"But-but- "

"Don't 'but' me, missy. You are not bringing it to school." Bobby told her.

Angie stuffed a spoon of cereal into her mouth, "But I want to," she said, while munching on the cereal.

Bobby flicked water at her, "No means no, sweetheart."

Jerry came into the kitchen, twirling the car keys in his left hand.

"Jerry, Bobby is bullying me," Angie grumbled. Bobby spluttered, "I am not!" Jerry laughed, "Angel spent the night at Sofi's place." Bobby grinned. Jack came into the kitchen, humming to an unknown tune. He took an apple off the counter and bit into it, "You guys might want to hurry; it's 10 minutes to 8am. School starts at 8am." Jerry cursed under his breath. "Ok, Angie and Jack, get into the car! Now!"

"Angie, come on!" Jack took her by her hand and brought her to the office. He registered her name and soon, the secretary gave him Angie's new schedule and everything else that she needed. Jack led her to her class and knocked on the door. He opened it and saw a pleasantly plump woman standing in front of the class, with a history book opened before her. Everyone was looking at him. "Hi, my name's Jack, and I'm here to drop off my little sister, Angie. She's new." Jack turned around and gently pulled Angie inside the class.

The teacher smiled warmly at them and stood up, "Hello, dear. My name is Mrs. Katherine but you can call me Mrs. Kat." Angie shyly nodded and waved a little. "So, it's safe for me to leave my sister here?" he joked. Mrs. Kat laughed, "Yes, it's safe. Angie, dear, why don't you go sit next to Hunter, that boy in the third row?" Angie looked at Jack and he nodded, "Go on." Angie hugged him and he hugged her back, then pushed her towards the seats.

Angie walked to her table and sat down. Jack waved to her and went out of the door within a blink of an eye. "Hey, I'm Hunter."

Angie turned to look at the boy beside her.

She blushed, "Angie."

"Nice to meet you," he smiled.

You too, Angie thought to herself… You too.
