The song ended and Megan had no idea that the Dukes was in the doorway listening in awe. Both Bo and Luke Duke had their mouths open in a big O of surprise. None of them had any idea that she could sing this well. Or that she could sing for the matter.
Bo was standing there with tears in his eyes and a stunned feeling came over him. His baby sister sang that good? Then again, why not? She was a Duke like the rest of them. She had to be able to sing like all of the rest of them.
Bo, not thinking how Megan would take it, started to clap. Megan spun around, her blue eyes looking like a startled rabbit's. "How long have all of you been standing there?" Megan asked, pushing a lock of blonde hair out of her eyes.
"Long enough, Baby Sister. How come you didn't tell us you could sing like that?" Bo questioned, stalking over to her and cupping her face in his hands.
"I've had people tell me they don't like my voice, Bo. I kind of thought that you wouldn't either," Megan said timidly, looking away from his eyes.
Bo wrapped his arms around his sister's shoulders and hugged her tightly, resting his chin on top of her head. "That is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. You have a beautiful voice," Bo said, stroking her soft hair.
"Really?" Megan asked, raising her head from his shoulder and looking into his eyes that they both shared.
"Really. Whoever said that to you, Little Sister, was crazy. You have a beautiful voice and I want you to keep singing. Right, Luke, Daisy?" Bo asked, turning to their cousins.
Daisy and Luke nodded in the affirmative. Megan wrapped her arms around Bo's neck, hugging him tightly. "I love you, Bo," Megan said, kissing his cheek gently.
Bo felt tears come to his eyes again as he planted a kiss on the top of his sister's head.
"I love you too, Darlin.' I'll always be here for you," Bo said.
'Bo, this doesn't mean I have to go back to my adopted parent's house, does it? They told me that if I found you that I have to go back since I'm still in high school," Megan asked, changing the subject.
Bo felt his heart clench at the lost look on Megan's face. "Of course not! Not if you don't want to. If you want I'll enroll you in high school down here. Since our parents never legally gave you up for adoption it's not even legal. I talked to Enos and another lawyer in town and they both said that you belong here with us," Bo said firmly.
"Really? I just didn't want any trouble," Megan said uncertainly.
"There won't be. Those people would be foolish to try to take you away from me and our family again," Bo said. Bo didn't know how much trouble there would be.
