Jessicas POV

I flipped my hair over my right shoulder, checking myself in the full length mirror once more. I turned to the left, checking out my right side view. Dragging the top left corner of my lip up, showing some teeth, I rested my left hand on my hip, bringing my right hand up in a claw. Clawing towards the mirror, I growled, the movement causing my hair to fall in my face. Laughing at my stupidity, I returned to my original stance in front of the mirror. Looking myself over again, I flattened my shirt, then bent over, grabbing my suitcase.

"Goodbye for now, home. See you in a month." I spoke out to my apartment, then headed towards my front door. Once I was there, I opened the door and stood in the doorway, drawing in a deep breath of fresh air, smiling.

"Big brother, here I come." I said as I took a step forward, out of the apartment, shutting and locking the front door, then heading to my car. Once I was in, I sighed, still smiling to myself. I can't wait to see my brother! I pulled out of the parking space and headed to the airport, ready to catch my flight to Rancho Cucamonga, California, to see my brother for the first time in what seemed like forever.

Adams POV

I woke up from my short after-work power nap and walked into the kitchen, heading straight for the fridge. As soon as I was there, I opened it, only to be greeted by the sight of literally nothing. No food at all.

"Hey! Ders! Blake! There's no food in the fridge!" I yelled out to the living room, where I could hear the two watching TV.

"Shhh!" I heard Ders say. "We're watching Hell Date!" he finished. I rolled my eyes and sighed.

"I'm starving to death here and nobody cares!" I said to myself, then grabbed a beer, cracking it open and taking a sip, then headed into the living room.

"Hey, dude. Here." Blake said, then threw my phone at me. I looked at him confused. "Some chick named Jessica has been calling and texting you all day. And, of course, out of respect-"

"And my order." Ders added.

"Ya," Blake continued. "but I didn't read any of the texts or answer any of the calls, but by how much she's been trying to contact you, she must really want you man." He finished with a wink. Just then, it hit me. It was Jessica, my younger sister! She's coming to spend a month with me here! Wait…

"Wait a second!" I yelled, causing Ders and Blake to look at me, confusion on their faces.

"What?" Ders asked.

"What's today?"

"Friday." He stated simply. I rolled my eyes.

"Full date, please!" I asked.

"Uh, Friday, June 14th. Why?" he asked.

"Shit!" I yelled, quickly taking out my phone, going in and quickly skimming over all of the texts from Jessica. They all said things from "leaving my house" to "Two hours". Wait… two hours? That was sent to me an hour ago! I quickly clicked on her contact info and clicked on her number, calling her. I glanced at Ders and Blake, who were still sitting there, staring at me, confused. I'll have to tell them later. Now that I think about it, I never even told them she was coming…
I stood there with my left hand on my hip, my right holding my cell phone up to my ear. My foot was tapping impatiently against the floor, waiting for the phone to start ringing. I don't want my little sister to be stuck in an unfamiliar place all alone with a bunch of creeps! Finally, the phone started to ring. 1 ring… 2 rings… 3… 4… there was a small click noise.

"Hello?" a voice asked. I sighed in relief.

"Jess?" I asked.

"Adam!" she screamed into the phone, causing me to have to pull it away from my ear for a second. I was probably smiling like a madman.

"Hey booger! What's going on?" I asked her. She laughed.

"Hey! Only mom can call me that!"

"I know. I only do it to irritate you." I said. "So, today's the day, right?" I asked, making sure.

"Yep!" she replied happily into the phone. "I only have about 40 minutes left until the plane lands!" she said. My eyes widened.

"Really?" I asked. I could hear her slightly squeal.

"Yep! I can't wait to see you!" she said. I smiled.

"I can't wait to see you either, Jess." I replied. Jess paused and I could hear talking in the background. "What's going on?" I asked, furrowing my eyebrows in confusion and worry. I heard Jess sigh.

"Nothing. Just that the flight attendant wants me to put the phone way. Well, I'll see you in a little bit. Love you!" she said.

"Love you too. See you later!" I said, then the line went dead. Smiling brightly, I put my phone in my back pocket and turned towards the guys, who were still staring at me with confused looks on their faces.

"Ders! Can you do me a favor?" I asked.

"Depends." He answered.

"Well, can you drive me somewhere?"

"Why can't you do it?" he asked. I shook my head.

"Come on Ders, we've been over this, like, a bajillion times! I have too many DUIs and Blake can't drive!"

"I can too drive!" Blake said, joining the conversation. "I just don't have my license!" he finished. Ders turned to him.

"Then why don't you go get it, Blake?" he asked.

"Because the people at the DMV scare me, ok! They're creepy and zombie like and I just don't like it!" Blake yelled towards the both of us. I held up my hands in defense.

"Wow wow wow, Blake. Calm down. It's ok. That's exactly what I thought the first time I went there for my licenses too." I said.

"Really?" Blake asked.

"No. Weirdo." I said, causing Blake to look down, slightly embarrassed, but he quickly got over it. "But anyways, Ders. Will you drive me? Please?" I asked. He thought about it for a second.

"Ok, fine." He said. "When?"

"Oh, about, um, right now." I said. His eyes widened.

"What?! But I'll miss Hell Date!" he said. I rolled my eyes.

"Oh, come on! Hell Date is, like, the lamest show ever! I really need you to drive me." I begged. "Come on, Ders. Come on! Who's a good Ders? Who's a good Ders who's gonna drive me somewhere?" I said as if I was talking to a puppy, or a baby. Ders tried not to laugh. He put his hands on his knees and pushed, standing up with a sigh.

"Ok." He said. "Where to?" he asked.

"The airport." I replied.

"What? Why the airport? That's like 30 minutes away!"

"I have someone to pick up whose flight lands in 40 minutes and I don't want them to be there alone, so we should leave, like, um, right now!" I said, and with that, I chugged the rest of my beer and threw the empty can onto the coffee table, smiling to myself as I headed out the front door, Ders and Blake behind me.
