Heath grinned widely as he opened the door a little further to let Aaliyah in. As Aaliyah walked into the lounge, she was stopped in her tracks by Heath's hands on her waist. Before Hath had chance to kiss the back of her neck, Aaliyah jumped away "I don't mean that" She exclaimed "I mean this" she added quickly, giving Heath the letter out of her pocket. Heath's eyebrows rose as soon as he read the letter "Who's Alexis?" he asked curiously.

"Alexis…Lexi my sister" Aaliyah replied.

"What and she was the reason you're house got burned down?" Heath questioned.

"That's what it says" Aaliyah snapped a little, she realised maybe she had gone to the wrong brother for help "Can you help me or not?"

Heath nodded "Yeah, but I'll have to call Brax". Aaliyah wasn't very happy about involving Brax. The last time he tried to help Aaliyah, Brax ended up getting stabbed by Johnny. After a few minutes of persuasion from Heath, Aaliyah reluctantly agreed. She knew Brax would know what to do.

Brax and Casey were on the beach, they had been for a surf. Brax decided to ask his brother about his recent concerns.

"So you and Ali seem pretty close eh?" Brax questioned, Casey knew instantly where this conversation was heading. Casey nodded cautiously.

"Yeah she helps me with my school work" Casey replied.

"Gina helps you with school work, but I've never seen you hug her like I saw you hugging Aaliyah yesterday" Brax continued, he sensed the defensive tone in Casey's voice.

"Look Brax I don't know what you are getting at, nothing is going n between me and Aaliyah" Casey snapped.

"I just don't wanna see you get hurt Case" Brax explained.

"What the hell does that mean?" Casey was furious.

"I know Aaliyah and Heath have made a connection" Casey glared at his brother as he spoke. "They've slept together a few times".

Casey's face dropped "Twice, they slept together twice" he spat angrily.

"Yeah recently. Then there was that time when she first came to the bay" Brax was shocked by Casey's reaction.

Casey was stunned; he couldn't believe what he was hearing. Brax must have made a mistake. Aaliyah wouldn't do that to him. Casey's thoughts were interrupted by Brax's mobile phone ringing. Casey watched as Brax headed up the beach, before coming back with a puzzled look on his face. "That was Heath, he wants us to meet him and Ali at Angelo's" Brax said as he grabbed his board. Casey followed quickly behind him.

Brax and Casey arrived at Angelo's first; they were sat at a table waiting for Aaliyah and Heath to come upstairs. They didn't have to wait long. Casey gritted his teeth as he watched Aaliyah and Heath laughing as they walked up the stairs, Heath casually draped his arm around Aaliyah as the pair headed to the table. Brax noticed Casey's reaction. He looked furious. Brax also noticed Aaliyah throwing Heath's arm away as soon as she saw Casey. Brax wasn't an idiot he knew something was going on, but he decided to keep it to himself for now. Heath's phone call sounded important.

"What's so urgent?" Brax started, Heath and Aaliyah sat at the table. Aaliyah gave Brax the letter. Brax took the letter and read it. Brax's eye's widened as her got to the end of the letter "Alexis is your sister right" he asked quickly. Aaliyah nodded. She realised she had done the right thing letting Heath involve Brax.

"What does she mean when she says 'What's rightfully ours?" Brax added as he re-read the letter out loud to Aaliyah.

"Money" Aaliyah replied dryly "I have some money that she thinks she should have" Aaliyah's response shocked Brax. How could you do something like this to your own sister, just for cash?

"You don't know my sister" Aaliyah said quickly, it was like Aaliyah had read Brax's mind. Brax nodded.

"So how much money are we talking about?" Brax asked trying to get an idea of just what he was up against.

"$3.2 Million" Aaliyah winced; she was waiting for their reaction.

Both Heath and Casey spat their drinks out. Brax just stared "Wow" he managed. Aaliyah looked a little unnerved. Although she had expected this reaction she still wasn't ready for it.

Ooh so Brax has told Casey about the two encounters Aaliyah had recently, how do you think he will react? As always please R & R. Love Nikki x x
