A.N. Wow! I'm really glad this didn't take as long as the other one's did to write, so I can update faster. I feel really bad about making you guys wait so long before. Hopefully I'll be able to write the next chapter and get it up pretty soon. I'll try as hard as I can! But I'm sure you'd rather not read my ramblings, so I'll keep it short, on with the story!

The day had finally arrived that Caylib was coming, and I sat nervously in the passengers seat of Jacob's Rabbit as we drove to the airport in Port Angeles. We had left earlier than we normally would have, but he said some shopping would do me good, and I didn't argue, shopping would be lovely. Plus, I really needed a new pair of tennis shoes, the ones I had brought with me were soaked and covered in mud.

"Why are you so nervous? He is your brother," Jacob asked, removing a hand from the wheel to grab mine, I squeezed it.

"I don't know, I just haven't seen him in a while, you know? It's more that I'm eager to see him than nervous, but I am a little bit. I really want him to like you, but Caylib is hard to read," I sighed.

"Don't worry, I'll do my best," Jake promised, I laughed.

"Trust me, it's not you I'm worried about, it's my brother, he's a stiff," I said, making a disgusted face, Jake laughed.

"Well, I can deal with stiffs, Sam gets that way sometimes, I'm sure I can handle it," he told me, even though he was worrying about it just this morning, I guess I sounded convincing.

"You're right, I know you are, but I'm still worried," I confessed.

"It's ok to be a little worried, but it'll be fine when it's over, promise," he told me.

"That's good to hear," I grinned.

The rest of the car ride was generally silent, except for the radio that was playing some sort of rock song, I wasn't really paying any attention at any rate. I was too focused on the approaching pier. We would be stopping there to shop around a bit and grab something to eat, then at three o'clock we would head to the airport to await Caylib's arrival.

I didn't really focus much when we were shopping, but I did get my tennis shoes, and Jake talked me into getting a really cute pair of boots.

"Well, now I have to come up with something to do so you can wear those," Jacob sighed as we left the shoe store and headed to a little restaurant across the street.

"No you don't, I can wear them to school," I said, not really wanting to think about school.

"I know, but I want to see you in them," he grinned, I punched his arm lightly.

"Such a perv," I sighed, he just laughed.

We ate our lunch quickly so we could get to the airport in time, even so, we ended up being a bit later than planned, but thankfully Caylib's flight was delayed for ten to fifteen minutes, so we took seats and waited for his flight to come in.

I had to admit, I was a little bit nervous, I haven't seen Caylib since last Christmas, and he didn't stay as long as the rest of them, it was like he was trying to avoid the family, which worried me. Thankfully I had Jacob with me to ease the tension, I couldn't be stressed with Jacob's calm figure beside me. Plus, he was the perfect distraction. Instead of dwelling on my brother I let my eyes appraise Jacob. I swear, I could stare at him for hours without getting bored, he was just so damn gorgeous. I know he noticed me staring, but I didn't particularly care, so when he caught my eye I just gave him a wink.

"Flight 402 has now landed," I heard over the intercom, that was Caylib's flight. So I hurriedly fixed my gaze on the door and smoothed out my hair anxiously. Jacob was as calm as ever, and took my hand in his, running his thumb across the back.

The door opened and people began to spill in, my heartbeat raced as I kept an eye out for the familiar face of my brother. Then there he was, walking nonchalantly into the room, his face blank and serious as always, but once he saw me stand and caught my eye a smile spread across his face. He didn't smile often, so this was definitely a good thing.

"Caylib!" I cried, running towards him and throwing myself into his waiting arms.

"Hey, Drina, did you miss me?" He joked, rumpling my hair.

"So much!" I exclaimed, absolutely beaming. I don't what I was worried about, he was just as he always was, with the exception of his hair, it was now a little longer than it was before, reaching to his jawbone. I caught glimpses of the younger women in the room throwing glances at him, he was very handsome, but he was my brother, and I had Jake. Who was getting just about as many stares as he approached us with his wide welcoming smile that I loved so much.

"Ah, this must be your new boyfriend, huh?" Caylib asked, his eyes narrowing and smile fading away as Jake approached, wrapping an arm around my waist.

"Yup! This is Jacob, Jake, this is my youngest brother, Caylib," I said, taking control of the introductions.

"It's nice to meet you," Jacob smiled, holding out his hand. Caylib stared at it for a minute before clasping it a little harder than necessary.

"I hope you're treating my sister good," he grumbled, glaring into Jacob's face that was only a slight bit above his own.

"As best I can," Jacob said sincerely, and I smiled up at him, he returned it before facing my brother again. "Well, let's get your bags and we can head back to my place." Caylib nodded, leading the way to the baggage check out. He didn't bring much, but that was Caylib for you, he never really needed much, that's why I wasn't too worried about him going to Jacob's house. Unlike Eddie and Mandy, he wouldn't make fun of the lack of money Jacob had, that's why I wasn't as worried. My other brother, and only sister, would have given him a hard time, and I wouldn't want to put Jake and Billy through that. They deserve better than that.

During the drive home, I sat in the back while the men sat up front. As expected, Caylib quizzed Jacob on everything that he could think of, how old he was, where he went to school, did he have a job, everything that a father would ask of their daughters boyfriend.

"Jeez, Cay, give it a rest will ya? I think Jake's told you just about everything, cept' what color boxer's he's wearing!" I laughed, Jake laughed too, but Caylib didn't.

"Do you know what color boxer's he's wearing?"

"Caylib! No I do not know what color he is wearing!" I exclaimed, my face heating up. Yet, that was a complete lie, I indeed knew that Jake was wearing green boxer's with little dogs on them, I told him I thought they were cute when he put them on this morning.

"Good, you shouldn't, you're only seventeen," he said.

"Ya, well, I'm almost eighteen," I told him.

"That's right, October seventeenth," he mused. (A.N. I had her birthday in May at first, but I decided to change it because I wanted her to be eighteen later so the sex scenes aren't too weird or anything. Just thought I'd clear that up.)

"Mmhm, so that mean's I'm an adult in less than three month's," I reminded him.

"So, your point?" He asked.

"My point is that after that I can make my own decisions, and it won't matter what you say anymore," I grinned.

"I don't think so, Drina," Caylib said, shaking his head.

"And why's that?"

"Because, I'm your big brother, and you'll always be my baby sister," he grinned, turning around to look at me.

"Well, that's unfair!" I cried.

"Maybe, but I'm sure Eddie and Ray will agree with me on this one. Amanda might have something to say about it, but really, you two against us three, I think we both know who will win."

"Mandy and I of course, 'cuz girls always win!" I pronounced.

"Sure, if that's what you think," he laughed, Jake joined in.

"You're so mean," I groaned, even Jake was laughing at me now! That is so unfair!

The rest of the ride home was actually quite comfortable. I stayed in a huffy silence as I listened to the men up front talk about their love of cars, women, and more cars. It was nice that they were getting on so well, my previous worries now seemed silly as I listened to them prattle away.

I was glad of this. If the two men I loved the most hated each other, I don't what I would do, but it was as if they were old friends catching up. They didn't even talk about Jacob and I anymore, Caylib was too busy appraising Jacob for his work on the Rabbit.

"Wow, so you built this thing pretty much from scratch then?" He asked, completely amazed.

"Yup, pretty much, it was a lot of work, but it sure paid off in the end, I love this car!" Jacob said proudly, obviously enjoying the praise. That probably boosted his ego sky high, not that he needed it.

"Ya, it's really nice, but I have to say, I've always wanted Drina's Mustang, but she was the one who found it and bought it off the guy down the street. Her and my father were out there practically every day working on that thing. I think she knows more about cars than even I do by now!" He laughed.

"You bet I do!" I added into the conversation, accepting his theory.

"Hey, when we get back to the house, I'll show you my motorcycles, now those are a piece of work!" Jacob went on.

"Motorcycles? Really, that's sweet, can you ride them?" Caylib asked.

"Oh ya, they look practically new, you wanna take 'em out when we get back?" Jake offered, my brother's eyes went wide.

"Hell ya, I do!" He exclaimed.

You don't even know how happy I was listening to them. I had a feeling this would be a wonderful visit, of course, that was until we had to talk about the subject of Sebastian. I really hoped that wouldn't be soon, I wanted to enjoy my time with Caylib, not ruin it by talking about the one thing we both hated the most, our father's killer.
