.Well?.

[Dil]

Sighing, Jessi walked with her hands in her pockets, looking around the mall, through the crowds. That's what she normally did; she saw /through/ them and their little thoughts of 'packs' and 'food-chains'. Groaning, she saw Jess and Jeff, brothers that looked exactly alike, but Jess was nicer and older than Jeff; but, it seemed as if the maturity level was the same. Jeff walked on the right side of Jessi as she ignored him, and he talked on. "So, you too good for friends now? Huh? Are ya?! Loser!" He just taunted her as she walked with her hands in her pockets until she stopped and looked at him, hitting upside the shoulder with great force, making him hold his shoulder, eyes shut tight with pain for it left a mark.. "Now, if I /ever/ hear ya talk to me like that again, my friend has a purse with buckles...OW!" She snorted in his face as she looked at him, staring straight into his stunned face. "Now, boy, I'm your coach, not ya little flirt. I suggest you go practice, or rest up, cause tommarra, you'll need it. Count on it." That is what she loved about being able to put the boys in their places when she had to whip them into shape for her father; the football coach. When they are wit her they learn the following; respect, for both authority and gender, hard work, and teamwork. She shook her head as she started to walk away again as she looked about, wondering if she would see her friends.

[|.Mick.|]

Thoughts ran into his mind as he walked in the direction of the mall. He had a brother, all this time, he had a brother. Well, a little half-brother but it was still the same. Mick's mother had only told him the day before he was actually going to meet him. He knew his brother was fifteen and named Kaiden, but everything else was a mystery. He hoped that his brother wouldn't be a jock or a preppy boy. However even if he was Mickail would accept it. After all he was family... right?

Mickail arrived at the mall and entered walking at a brisk pace. He was all too eager to meet his brother. He was going to meet his brother infront of the Hot Topic. Mick loved Hot Topic and often had to save up money or work to buy stuff from the store. The HT store however was at the other side of the mall. It would certainly take a while for him to reach it. He walked quickly, accidently running into other people as he raced towards the other end of the building. While he was running out of the corner of his eye he spotted Jessi. "Jess- C'mon!" He said eagerly. He wanted his friend to come.

Mickail arrived at the store shortly after. There he saw a boy about 5'5 tall. He appeared to look similar to Mick. So he assumed this was the Kaiden he was searching for. He walked over to Kaiden and extended his hand out and said, "Hello, Kaiden? I'm your big bro' Mickail." He had a friendly smile on his face as he stood there.

Kaiden saw Mickail approach him and he felt a little intimidated at first. Mick, however seemed nice enough. So this was his big brother. Kaiden didn't know what to think, really. He had made it this far in his life without a brother what would having one change anything thing. "Yes, I'm Kaiden." He said timidly, hiding behind his black hair. Kaid was starting to get nervous, when ever he did he got real shy and quiet. He grabbed Mick's hand and shook it weakly.

[Dil]

Hearing Mick call her, she followed after him quickly, weaving in and out of the people easily and soon she caught up with him, all the while thinking of what they were going to do whenever they got to where they where going to. Soon, Mick stopped and talked to a boy. Jessi's eyes were screaming what she was thinking; 'Awwwww, he's so....CUTE!' But, Jessi would be nice for Mick and not do anything to traumatize what appeared to be his Mini-Me. Jessi thought they would have to be related.

Jessi walked next to Mick and looked at Kaiden, smiling warmly as she asked him, "Who are ya...? Didn't really catch ya name..." She wasn't listening to their conversation for many reasons. It was rude, number one. She looked at Mick, then Kaiden, waiting for him to answer her question.

[|.Mick.|]

Kaiden gulped, and soon became nervous as this girl talked to him. She was pretty and an older woman. He turned flushy and a bead of sweat rolled down his face. "Kaiden am I," He stammered he looking at her through his hair, but trying not to make too much eye contant. Kaiden then peered over at Mick with a look that screamed help. Kaiden wasn't much of a social boy and was terrible around the opposite sex. It looked like Mick had a lot to teach him.

"I found out I have a brother Jessi." Mickail said with a smile. He was happy to have his little brother. He then clapped his hands together and motioned with his head over at the foodcourt. "I say we get a bite to eat and chat." He added. He then ushered Kaiden and Jessi towards it.

Kaiden sighed a breath of relief. His brother was pretty cool. Kaiden's plan was to stuff his face with food so he wouldn't have to talk to the girl. He was just a /tad/ bit shy.

[Dil]

Brow raised as she looked at Kaiden, seeing him get all...flushy, wondering why he was so nervous. Ah well, better not make him fee worse by asking. Jessi could understand the jock mind, only because she was living with three, wait /four/, counting her father, and her male family has turned her into one, a bit. Shaking her head lightly, Jessi walked after Mick to the foodcourt, sighing as thought about her family that was coming into town soon. She'd better enjoy the alone time she had before she became 'The Fun Cousin' again. Too all her baby cousins, she was the funnest cousin they have, and that got annoying after a while. But, she wouldn't ever dream of yelling at her 'followers'. She loves 'em too much to break their little hearts. She just sicks them on her brothers when they get on her nerves. But, she loved 'em, considering they were flesh and blood. She also thought all of her cousins were cute, every last one of them. Not in the love interest kinda way, but in a baby way. Shaking her head, she sat down at the table and sighed, putting her head in her hands as she looked around, brow raised.


Soon, her head raised as she heard her cell phone ring and she looked at who was calling; Chase. "God..." Smirking lightly, she just let it ring, knowing her cousins were here now, and he wanted to load them off on her. After it stopped ringing, she listened to the message. You could hear Chase's voice, even when it was pressed to her ear. "Jessica Nicole Wells, I know you're there! I swear, you come get your little posse' and go get some ice cream or something. Oh, I know you're there, so don't even bother acting like you aren't...I'll get you back when you get home, oh dearest sister..." Jessi smirked as she laid the phone back down and sighed with some satisfaction. "Yes, life is sweet..." Leaning back in the chair, she put her arms behind her head and sighed again.

[|.Mick.|]

Mickail quirked a brow as he watched Jessi and her phone. How sweet was she? He thought this sarcastically of course. But he loved her personality he wouldn't change a thing about it. Well maybe she could accept his ego more. Mick liked his buddy, he couldn't help it. They had been friends for quite a while and he wouldn't trade her for the world maybe some bacon but not the world. She was stuck with the Mickster. Mickail then glanced over at his brother. It felt so wierd to him to have a brother. He yawned then said, "I'll go get us some drinks and fries what do you guys want?" He looked at Kaiden, then to Jessi.

Kaiden shook his hair out of his eyes then said, "I'll take a cherry coke and some chili cheese fries... Thanky." He then looked over at Jessi. He wasn't so nervous around her anymore, he could tell she was easy to be around. Hey, his brother seemed to know her well. Kaiden however couldn't help but wonder if the two were an item. He waited for Mick to walk off before he looked at Jessi. The look in her eyes was one he got a lot. It was that look that scream, 'I wanna smother you with a hug...' He then said, "So... Are you Mick's eh... girlfriend?"

[Dil]

"Nah, I'm good. Can't have anything for a few hours. Call it....trainin'." Jessi couldn't really tell anyone about her cousins just yet, knowing it would be such a great surprise for those that are hanging around her when her little minis are hanging on /her/. Her cousins always hung onto her, literally. She hasn't been choked, yet, and she would make sure to make them keep their arms and hands away from her neck. Sighing, she watched Mick leave, brow raised. Yep, he was her best bud, and he was stuck with her sorry face for life. No matter what. Shaking her head, she looked to Kaiden and held back a tiny bit of laughter. It wasn't that she didn't like Mick; she did, she just never thought of them together before...hmm...interesting. What would put the kid under that impression?

"Sorta kinda. Girl that's a friend, yeah, but I love 'im...Why would ya think that?" She didn't ask it in a rough tone, she just wondered what made it seem that way. Why did she say she loved him? Because she really did. Maybe not like a boyfriend, but....more of a brother, probably. She put her chair back on all fours and crossed her arms as she looked at Kaiden. Yeah, she wanted to hug him, but no, she wouldn't go and make herself seem like a stalker. As if that wasn't already a few people thought.

[|.Mick.|]

Mickail arrived back with his drink and Kaiden's drink and fries. He stole one fry and munched on it quickly before handing to to Kaid. He yawned and said, "So what were you two talking about? Me I assume. Nah, just kidding." He knew he was hot stuff but he didn't want to be hot headed. It seemed his best fried was behaving well. If she were a dog he would of tossed her treat. He looked at Kaiden then said, "You know, I'm glad I have a brother. I'm sure we'll be close." He had a friendly smile on his face.

Kaiden noticed Mick stealing a fry but he ignored it. He then ate some of his fries and drank his soda. Kaiden looked at Jessi and blushed a bit. He felt a bit stupid asking that. He hoped that she would drop it as soon as he returned. He didn't really think they were going out much. They just seemed close, that was all. "Yeah... Me too." He said softly towards Micky. He then finished his food and drink and went to toss it in the trash.

Mickail then looked at Jessi while he was gone and said, "So watch 'cha think of him. He's definitely got /my/ looks." He chuckled to himself as he looked at her. Him and Kaiden were the 'Kai' Brothers.

[Dil]

Shaking her head, Jessi looked at Mick and sighed. He knew too much. She listened to their short conversation this time, considering she was sort of apart of it. This was all so sweet and touching, almost like a tear jerker. She wasn't about to cry though, it wasn't really a good time to be a smart ass, like she normally would be. That was her; the smart ass to her friends, the Angel to her teachers, and the hard workin' girl next door to her employers. But, too her parents, she was a mix of all three. She was a smart ass to her parents, but at the same time, their little angel and hard working.

She looked up at Mick and smirked lightly, brow raised. "Oh yeah, I see resemblance. The only difference is, I can hug /you/ to death." She knew she could, and she would when the time arose. She was a bit of a master of torture, be it her brothers or male friends. She practiced on Shane and Chase for her whole life, with Jason as her partner in crime.
