Zandra fell asleep on the way to Duane Lee's house so he carried her into his house and put her down on the bed. He then called his dad.

"Hey can you take Dylan and the other boys or have Leland stay with Jesse for a couple of days?" Duane Lee asked.

"Yeah sure." Dog said worried. "Is every thing ok?"

"Yeah I just think we need some time alone till she feels better." Duane Lee said. "Have Jesse call her in sick at work."

"Will do." Dog said. "Make our Baby ZayZay better."

"I'll do my best." Duane Lee replied and hung up. He walked into his bedroom and laid down next to Zandra on his bed. He brought her into his arms and she cuddled up to him. She opened her eyes and smiled up at him.

"I don't think I could have made it through this with out you here." She admitted. He kissed her forehead and moved on top of her.

"I want to make you happy, but I don't know if I can take the next step just yet. Its still to early for me." he admitted and Zandra kissed his nose.

"I understand." Zandra said with a smile. "I can wait for you if this is meant to be."

Duane Lee smiled down at her. "We have two days to our selves."

Zandra cuddled up even closer to him. They both fell asleep not long after.

XOXOXOXO

That next day a man walked into the office and looked around. The Power boys ducked to the back office the moment they saw him.

"Whats wrong?" Leland asked and the boys shook their heads.

"The man out there is my father." Jonas said quietly. "You need to get a hold of Zandra. If he see's that she isn't with us or finds out she hasn't been home then he can take us away."

Leland quickly called Dog and Beth into the office and told them what was up.

"You go get Zandra." Dog said. "Take the boys out the back and bring them back with Zandra. Beth and I will distract him."

Dog nodded at Beth and she walked out to the front.

"Hey can I help you Bra?" Beth asked and the guy turned to look at her.

"Where are my kids?" Greg demanded. "I know the bitch works for you and I want her to give me back my kids."

"Now hold on." Beth said not liking the sound of the man's voice. "I know for a fact that Zandra has temporary custody of those boys because you wanted to split them apart."

"Now listen that may be true, but my sister shouldn't have even got custody of them!" Greg demanded. "She's way to young and they should be with their father. Now I have papers here that say I am fit to take the boys and that is exactly what I'm going to do."

"Let me see the papers?" Dog asked walking up to the guy. He read them through and looked at Beth. They looked authentic. This was really going to hurt Zandra.

Zandra walked into the office followed by her nephews. "What are you doing here Greg?"

Greg snatched the papers away from Dog and handed them to Zandra. "Read them and weep little Sista cause you won't be seeing my boys any longer."

Zandra took the papers and shook her head. She knew the papers were authentic because she recognised the judges signature.

"No!" Jonas demanded. Greg turned on him.

"All four of you get in my car now." he demanded. "Time to go home."

"We are home." Matty demanded and Zandra started to cry. She gave each boy a hug. She then turned on her brother.

"If I hear that you have started smoking again or put one finger on these boys I will hunt you down." Zandra warned then turned to Adam and Jonas. "This isn't over. I will fight this."

"But you won't win little sis." Greg said with a smile. He lead the boys out to his car and drove off. Zandra watched them leave with a heavy heart.

"You guys aren't that close I see." Dog said and Zandra shook her head.

"He never liked the fact that I was trying to come back into my real family's life." Zandra said sadly. "I was never like a little sister to him. I mean we are nine years apart and he just sees me as some other sibling he has to share his inheritance with. Which is dumb cause my birth mother is only forty eight. She had Greg when she was sixteen."

"I guess I just don't get that." Leland said shaking his head. "I would never do something like that to Lyssa."

"I just met Greg four years ago. A year later I moved here." Zandra replied with a shrug. "Then I took him to court for custody of the boys. Lets just say there wasn't much time for bonding. I'm way closer with the rest of my birth family. I used to drive two hours to babysit for Shawn because his son was autistic and didn't take to strangers well. But Joey loved me the moment he met me. I couldn't go any where with out him following."

"I think you have that reaction with all kids." Duane Lee said with a smile. "And I hope you don't mind me asking but why did you get mad at Eli for naming his son Kaylum Dean?"

"That was the name I wanted to name my first son." Zandra said then laughed. "My friends and I used to make up stories about how our life would be if we married inside the group. Michelle would marry Brent never leaving our home town. They would live on a farm with two dogs and three kids all boys. Their names would be Gabriel, Michael, and Adam. Leslie and trent would marry have one kid get a divorce and marry some very attractive people then having two more kids each. They never picked names. Jessica would marry her boyfriend Tom whom we all claimed into the group. They'd be ranchers raising horses and hunting dogs and have two girls cause jessica refused to have boys. The girls would be named Taylor and Jamie. Then last but not least I would marry Duane. He would be an actor and I would be his prized bride who only worked when she got bored. We'd live in a castle designed by us and we'd have nine kids. The oldest twins a boy and a girl. Named Kaylum Dean and Bella Maria. Then we'd have four more girls and three boys. The girls would be named Laya Jane, Nola Beth, Raen May, and Kona Lee. The boys would be named Aniken Luke, Beldon Joseph, abd Dwennon Bryce. But apparently we had trouble naming the last seven because I wouldn't allow him to even think about the names Padma, Frodo, Arwen or Legolas."

"Is that why you liked the name Kaylum so well?" Leland asked and Zandra smiled as she shook her head.

"Oh hell no. Duane and I would have never lasted as a couple." Zandra replied laughing at the memories. "We spent most of our time fighting or picking a fight. I used to have bruises all over my legs and arms from us beating up on each other. He was like my brother that I never wanted but got... Hey kind of like you Leland."

Leland playfully pushed her and Duane Lee put his arms around her. "No picking on my girlfriend." He said with a laugh. Dog and Beth smiled. They were glad to see that the girl was still able to smile.

"What are you doing on sunday?" Beth asked Zandra. Zandra sighed.

"Work." Zandra replied sadly. "Double shift. Then Jesse wanted to go over wedding plans. I'm so excited. Its my first time to be a maid of honor!"
