Brooke was lying in Julian's arms and couldn't stop talking, "What if she hates it here? Or what if she hates me...or us? And what if she runs away or...", Julian touched Brooke's chin and made her look at him.

"I promise, she won't.", he kissed her softly and both of them cuddled a while not knowing that somewhere not far away a young girl had the same questions.

Phoebe was lying awake and wondered how her life would change: what if Brooke and Julian did not like her, what if she could not be an unspoiled kid, what if...she finally lost the fight and fell asleep.

"Hey Phoebe. This is my husband Julian.", Brooke said when Phoebe entered her house with her stuff. It was not much stuff and Phoebe looked up at Julian with a red face. It was an embarrassing situation for her and she did not like feeling that shy.

"It is nice to meet you.", Julian smiled at the young girl and was impressed how much alike Brooke and Phoebe looked. It was like looking at a younger version of Brooke.

"Thank you…I…mean…yeah. Nice to meet you too.", Phoebe stuttered and shook his hand very shyly. Brooke had to smile a little. She had never seen Phoebe acting this way and found it kind of cute. She touched her shoulder and showed her her new room, "This is your room. You can color it if you don't like it or if you want another bed or...", Brooke talked rapidly.

"It's perfect.", Phoebe interrupted her and went into the room. The room was big and it had everything: A bed, a desk, chair and so on. She loved it immediately and could not believe her luck.

"You must be starving right?", Brooke asked and Phoebe nodded. "Well is it okay if we order pizza?", Brooke blushed a little for not being able to cook a great meal but now that an eleven year old one would be living with them, she decided to take some cooking lessons.

"Cool.", Phoebe answered "no mushrooms ok?"

Brooke smiled back at her and answered, "Perfect."

"Wow do you always order so much stuff?" Phoebe was astonished by the amount of food on the table. Brooke had ordered five pizzas and all kinds of deserts.

"Well, normally your sister does not but today is a special day for all of us.", Julian said smiling at the both of them. Some minutes later Phoebe and Julian were sitting on the couch with ice cream while Brooke cleaned the dishes. She had to smile when she saw how fast her husband had a connection to her newfound sister. In fact they were laughing all the time and talking about movies they had watched.

"Wow Phoebe. You did watch a lot of good movies.", Julian said impressed.

"You too.", Phoebe answered and smiled proudly up at him. She definitely liked him and her fear that her sister would have a horrible husband was blown away.

"Oh, I have a great idea.", Julian suddenly announced and caught their attentions, "This game is called "Getting to know each others", Julian smiled at Brooke who sat down in front of him. Brooke and Phoebe looked at each other skeptically but then smiled as well.

"I ask questions and you two just have to answer it. Okay, we start with...uhm..."

Julian stood up in front of them and said, "Hello everybody this is Julian Baker's Night again. Today we have to special guests. It's an honor to have them on my show. To the right, my lovely and beautiful wife Brooke Davis Baker. I know you wonder why she still has her last name "Davis" but she is THE B. Davis. Say hello Mrs. Davis Baker.", Julian handed her a fake microphone and at first Brooke did not say anything and just looked at Julian. Sometimes she was amazed by his craziness.

"Okay my wife has lost her tongue and thinks I am crazy.", he laughed and continued, "to the left we have my favorite sister in law.", she gave Phoebe the microphone and was surprised how fast she reacted.

"Hello. I am Phoebe Ferguson. Age fourteen...I mean eleven. And I am really proud to be on the Julian Baker show." Brooke laughed and thanked her husband for making everything a bit easier.

"So we begin. What is your favorite color?"

Brooke answered at first "Mine is red cause it suits me", she laughed.

"Mine is violet. No particular reason", Phoebe said into the microphone. "Well, well. Now the next question. What day do you like the most?"

Immediately Brooke and Phoebe screamed "Saturday". They looked at each other and had to laugh hard. Both of them were so happy at the moment. Julian smiled at both of them and realized that the space on the couch that had been between them at first was gone. "Summer or winter?"

"Summer of course!", both of them answered the same. They played a little longer till Julian said, "Thanks for watching my show. I cannot wait till the next week. But today we make a break cause two sisters look very tired." He had realized that Phoebe fought to stay awake and when he looked at the clock he was shocked at 2am. Fortunately tomorrow would be Saturday. Julian went down and gave his wife a kiss, sat down besides her and then looked at Phoebe "I think it's bedtime", he smiled and she nodded and stood up.

"Have a good night, Phoebe", Brooke said after her and then looked at Julian, "You're the best husband on the whole wide world." He hugged her tightly and gave her a kiss.

"We will get through all of this together Brooke! I love you"

"I love you too", they went to they room. But Brooke went outside again and opened Phoebe's door for a second. She just had to see her sister one more time. She smiled when she saw her breathing peacefully in her bed.

A few weeks later everyone was very happy. Of course there were some fights between all of them but just like in normal families. The offender was under arrest and both of them started losing their nightmares.

"I don't want to!", Phoebe protested while Brooke packed her suitcase. Phoebe's protests were totally normal for Brooke. In fact, she was protesting about everything and Brooke knew that she had been the same way when she had been this age, so she stayed calm.

"Well, I am sorry. But you have to.", she did not even look at Phoebe who let herself fall onto her bed.

"But it is weird living with my teacher. Can't I stay by myself or with Joshua?"

"We don't have to answer that question, Phoebs.", Julian came into the room and gave both of his women a kiss, "It's just a week, kiddo." He started using many nicknames for Phoebe. They had a great relationship. Sometimes he caught himself thinking of Phoebe as his own daughter. He could not believe how fast the dynamic had changed in their household and how happy everyone was although it was definitely a louder household now.

"Fine, but I'll hate that week. Jamie always gets on my nerves. He is like a baby."

"Phoebe, stop calling him that. He is older than you and very nice to you. By the way that skirt is mine and nothing an eleven year old should wear.", Brooke answered harsh and threw it on the floor.

"You two suck, you know.", Phoebe said lying on her bed. Julian hugged Brooke from behind nodded: "Yes, actually we do enjoy it.", he smiled and they jumped onto the bed and hugged Phoebe in the middle and gave her lots of kisses and tickled her.

"Stop it.", Phoebe laughed hard but there was no escape.

"Oh, we will miss you.", Brooke said and was astonished again how small Phoebe was. She definitely looked more like a ten year old one.

"Well, you could have taken me with you. But...right...you have a looooot work to do." Phoebe smiled.

"What are you smiling at, it is the truth."

"Right. Like you don't just want to have sex all the time.", Phoebe laughed at their red faces.

"What did you just say?", Brooke blushed and coughed, "Okay, it is so time for the talk."

"What? No way. I am out of here.", Phoebe wanted to escape the situation but Julian held her tight.

"Okay, I think your big sis is right. You're almost a teenager and you talk way too much about sex and you have that boyfriend who is way too old for you, which by the way, I don't like,"

Phoebe tried to close her ears but Brooke and Julian were stronger, "That is so embarrassing."

"Okay, so I think it should be a girl's talk.", Brooke said and Julian immediately-a little too happy- left the room. "Okay, well...I...", Phoebe laughed at Brooke's stuttering.

"Brooke I know everything about sex, okay. I know that I should use condoms or the pill. Okay, I know how it works.", Brooke looked questioned at her and asked slowly "Have you...?"

"God no. It is so disgusting. I will never do it. I don't even have my period.", Phoebe said and made Brooke smile very happily.

"Well, then I think you're too young for the talk.", with that she left the room with a big smile on her face and an astonished Phoebe running after and screaming:"What?"

She hated it when someone told her that she was too young for anything.
