to be my little brother. What did you expect my reaction would be" Anthony said something under his breath that sounded like curse words that I didn't want to hear. "I didn't expect Jonny to tell you that much he was just supposed to convince you to get out. “That was funny expecting Jonathan to change my mind when he couldn’t even convince me.  "Well he failed badly" "I know he told me, but he is sure we will be able to protect you" "You don't sound so confident?" He looked taken aback. "I will never let anything happen to you Alexis" "So why are we having this conversation?" "Because I want to make sure you are all right" "All things in consideration and under circumstances I’m really fine I promise" "Ok not gone argue with you" He gave me a big and just when I thought that was the end of that he whispered by my ear. “So you gone tell me what’s the deal with you and Jonathan?”

 I pulled away and looked up at him. “There is no deal” He was not buying it, I forgot how well he use to know me or still knows me. “Really so how come we can cut the atmosphere with a knife every time the two of you are close to each other.” Anthony rarely missed anything and the one thing I wished he missed he didn’t. “I’m not stupid Lexi, I can tell something happened between you two and we can spend the whole night going back and forth I’m not leaving till you tell me. ”He is impossible but I can’t tell him, can I. “There is nothing to tell.” ‘Uh Hu, you want to try again. I just want to find out which one of yours @$$*$ I want to kick first or how hard I have to hurt my best friend.” This almost had me laughing my over protected brother. If he knew the truth he will more than hurt his best friend he will most likely kill him. But I have to tell him something and I can’t lie he will know when I lie he always do.

  “It was  a long time ago Ant, its nothing really.” “it wasn’t nothing or we wouldn’t be have all the awkwardness around the two of you ” I let go of an breath I didn’t even realize I was holding. “It was bad timing, that’s all. It was just un expected to see him and all of you again after every one disappeared so suddenly. I guess after losing Sam and you gone I just didn’t expect him to leave as well” Anthony went to sit on my bed and pulled me into his lap wrapping his arms around me. Just like he use to do when I was little and I had nightmares. “I’m sorry kid we never meant to leave you.” He rested his chin on my head as I rested my head against his chest. I forgot how safe I felt in my brothers arms. “You didn’t mean for any of it to happen Ant neither you nor Sam picked your destinies that day. But John could have stayed In touch I knew he had to leave with his mom it’s just everything changed and I had no one to talk to” Anthony took his thumb and wiped a tear of my cheek  I didn’t even know I was crying. I didn’t cry at the funeral, I didn’t cry when I left my dumb @$$ husband, I didn’t cry when my life went to hell. But now I’m crying. “I’m so sorry Lex” He didn’t say anything else just held me real tight.

I must have dosed off cause the next thing I remembered was voices whispering in my room, “Is she ok?” “I hope so, she hurts a lot she cried herself to sleep.” It was Jonathan and Anthony I wanted to tell them I can hear them but decided I let them think I’m asleep and hear what else they say. “Do you think she does that a lot?” I’m sure that’s real concern I hear in Jonathan’s voice. “I dint know, I didn’t realize how badly she got hurt thru everything” “It’s not your fault man, you got locked up I should have stayed and kept an eye on her.”  Antony disagreed” You had your mom to worry about beside if you had stay you would have ended up with her and probably broke her heart. Then I had to kill you right now.” Jonathan gave a dry laugh and I heard them leave closing the door behind them. Anthony has no idea how spot on he was. I didn’t lie to him when I told him what was wrong I just kept some of the details out.

Monday morning bought the usual amount of chaos in the house getting the girls ready for school, getting ready for work. "Lexi, James will take you to work and he will borrow your car today" "Under no circumstance, let him drive his own piece of crap car."  "Alexis I already said so" "Mother, James is not gone borrow my car I'm sorry" "Alexis as your mother" She suddenly stopped talking as I turned I see Anthony standing in the door way. "Mom, Lexi is right. James should stay home for his own safety” Thanks to Anthony I got out of there quickly and without having to give James my car. Dropped the girls off at school and headed to work. I only realize when I got to work I'm thirty minutes early, I decided to get to work just to get my mind off things. Around lunch time my office phone buzzed.

“Yes Audrey what is it?" Audrey my assistant sound slightly out of breath "Your brother is in reception to see you" "Just send him to my office please" "Will do" "Thanks Audrey" I wonder which brother, maybe I should have asked her before I said send him through. Well too late now.  Moments later there is a knock on my office door "Come in" "Your brother Ms. Ross" then I realize why she sounded out of breath. Anthony was behind her and the sight of him usually left woman breathless. Seeing him thou I was sure if I should be happy or panic so I just smiled. "Thank you Audrey, please come in Anthony" "Nice girl" He said as his eyes stayed on Audrey walking away. "What are you doing here?" I could hear the panic in my voice as I close the office door. "Hey don't get up tight with me, I tried calling you but your cell just rings and rings" Only when he mentioned trying to call me I realized I left my phone at home. "Ah darn I forgot it at home sorry. So what's so important that it couldn't wait till tonight? Is something wrong?" Anthony relaxed in the arm chair opposite my desk with his hands behind his head. “Relax I just came to visit my little sister.” I have him a look that said I wasn’t buying it.

“I came to drop this off.” He put a lil device on my desk.” It’s to bug your office as a backup.” I nodded. “You still want to do this?” I knew where he was going with this so I stopped him before he could go further with that sentence. “Of cause I’m sure, it just seems so unreal like a movie.” I laughed but he didn’t find it funny. “It’s not a movie Lexi its real life and you can get real hurt.” I got up and went to give him a hug. “Relax that why I know too bad @$$ cops that gone make sure I’m real safe.” He planted the little device out of sight made a call to test it before he left he gave me a strange look, like I’m some stranger he has never seen before. "Why do you keep staring at me?" "You my little sister except you not little anymore and I missed how you went from innocent girl to this" "Aw I'm not that bad" I pouted as if he hurt my feeling and then giggled about it "It's not funny Lexi, you are doing everything we never wanted you to but you’re doing it for the right reasons. I don't know if I should be mad or proud" "Just don't be mad at me" We said goodbye and he left.

I got home greeted my mom and the girls who was helping mom cook dinner. “hi where is everyone?” “HI, they are either in your father’s study or outside with James and Dina in not too sure.” “Ok so I’m gone have a quick shower then.” I left the kitchen and headed to my room I feel like a long shower so I locked my bedroom door. I was still in the shower when I thought I heard something so I got out and rapped a towel around me to go see. I nearly had a heart attack when I saw Jonathan get out of my closet. “What the hell are you doing” He seemed just as startled as me but quickly recovered. “Your door was locked” he gestured to my door matter of fact. “I’m having a shower now what are you doing in my room.” “I had to talk to you” “It couldn’t wait till I came out, you had to climb thru my closet. “He looked back at my closet he just used to enter my room. “I was surprise you didn’t get it fixed, you still using it?” “No, it seems only jerks fit thru it.” “Ouch that hurts” I had to laugh. ”oh please nothing hurts you, now why you here I’m getting cold.” I should probably not have mentioned the las part cause that made him run his eyes over me only having a towel wrapped around me. ”Nice view” “Jonathan either tell me or get out.” He laughed then gestured towards my bathroom. “Get something clothes on Il wait here you distracting me”

I didn’t like the idea of Jonathan in my room with the door locked it brought back to many of those memories and I was not repeating past mistakes. “So what’s so important” I said as I exited the bathroom and found him lying causally on my bed with his hand behind his head eyes closed just innocently relaxing. What a sight. “James had a call from Mcklousky. He wants business taken care of tomorrow" I saw the unease on his face. "Can you do it?" "We think so, our concern is you" "Don't worry about me, I'll be fine doing my part. You just make sure we don't have a repeat of the last time" I saw hurt cross his face, “I’m sorry I didn’t mean” He held up his hand” Its ok I know what you mend.” It’s a hard subject so I tried to change it quick. ”Ok  is there anything else.” He nodded yes as he eased himself of the bed and stretched as he stood. Dam this guys has mussels everywhere. 

"So we decided we are going to put a wire on you, I  will have to do it since everyone thinks there was something between the two of us. It wouldn't seem less odd if  we spend time alone unlike you and Ant, we don't want anyone asking questions." If that was what they were thinking they weren’t wrong.  "For the sake of everything that depends on this I wouldn't argue but I'm not happy about it." He smirked "You could always not do any of this" Fat chance mister. "No that's not an option, and you know it” Still smirking he said "Can't blame a man for trying. Then I’m going to ask you out to dinner tonight, we have secured an apartment where we can go through all the details with you. Ok" that didn’t sound so
