On the way home from Ruby's, Sheana couldn't help but notice how tense Kevin was. She placed her hand on his thigh and gently started rubbing his leg, "Kev, is something wrong? Please tell me. I'm here so we can talk about this. Our relationship is more than physical attraction, we are best friends too."

"Sheana, I know that. You are my best friend, and I want to tell you everything. I am just scared to confront my own mother with this information. She doesn't even know Adrianne, and I am about to accuse her of lying to me and giving up her child. Could you ever do that to your mother?"

"I don't want to talk about my mother. Let's keep her out of this, I really don't like to talk about that subject, you know that. But, I could never do that to your mother. However, you are a strong person Kevin. That's what I love about you. If you explain everything to your mother, and then slide it into the conversation, I am sure you will get an answer and she won't be upset."

"Baby, I hope you are right. I love my Mom too much to hurt her. Why do I feel so guilty?"

"No guilt, just mixed emotions for the fact that you may have a sister, and nervousness about confronting your only parent. Things could be worse. Do you want me to go with you?"

"No, that's OK. But you know what you can do? Move your hand to another location before I explode. You know what that does to me, Baby."

Sheana just looked at Kevin and smiled, she slowly reached over and kissed his neck. "Baby, I love you, you know that?", she gently murmured against Kevin's neck.

"You are my number one girl, ofcourse I know that. I love you too." Kevin and Sheana drove the next few minutes to Sheana's house in silence.

THE GUYS HOUSE

"So, What is for dinner tonight, my good man?" Brian said to Nick while walking through the kitchen into the TV room, sitting down, and grabbing a controller for Nintendo.

"MYO, baby. Because it is all good." Nick looked over at Brian and smiled.

"What the fuck is MYO. I don't want to eat anything I have never heard of."

"Dumbass, MYO is Make Your Own. Tonight, you get to make your own dinner." Nick didn't even bother to look at Brian, he was too into the TV screen. If he had bothered to look in Bri's direction he would know that there was a speeding pillow coming at him. WHAM! The pillow hit Nick, and Brian knew it was on. "That's it!" Nick paused the game and threw down the controller. The next thing Brian knew, there was a six foot one inch five-year old coming at him. Brian stood up, and challenged him to a sumo match, Nick took the challenge. After ten minutes Brian and Nick didn't even notice Kevin and Sheana walk in the house.

"Whatcha guys doin?" Sheana asked the two losers who were wrestling on the floor.

"Nothing Sam, Howie's not here. He went out with..... Sam...." cutting himself off Brian looked up to see Sheana smiling back at them. "Hi Sheana, sorry I thought you were Sam." Brian smiled shyly.

"It's OK babe. Why were you two rolling on the floor together? I thought you had a girlfriend Brian?"

"Hahaha, real funny Sheana..."

"Brian threw a pillow at me while we were playing Nintendo." Nick said proudly, with a big smile on his face. Nick had no shame around Sheana, he felt completely comfortable around her. Why he did not know.

"Woohoo, that is definitely something to be proud of there Nickay." Sheana just smiled at Nick, wondering when he got so odd. The next thing she knew Nick and Brian had her and were lifting her over their head's and bouncing, singing, and dancing to "This Is How We Do It" by Montel Jordan. Unfortunately, they only knew the chorus. At that time Kevin walked into the TV room to see why Frick and Frack were singing, and why Sheana hadn't followed him into the kitchen.

"Alright, that's it. Put my girlfriend down. I said put her down. NOW!!"

"There is no where to put her, my good man. Let's go to the pool!" Brian shouted. Sheana was scared now and did not want to go swimming. Nick on the other hand thought it was a good idea.

"Pool, pool, pool. Let's go to the pool." Nick and Brian were singing while they carried Sheana outside and onto the pool deck. On the count of three the boys dropped Sheana into the ten foot water, and were then pushed into the pool by Kevin. Nick, Brian, and Sheana were all treading water when Brian brought up the idea for a chicken fight. Sheana brought up the thought that she had no one to be her partner until she looked over at Kevin who was sitting in a lawn chair about to fall asleep.

"You guys thinking what I am thinking?" Sheana asked Nick and Brian in a whisper, so Kevin wouldn't hear them.

"I don't know Sheana, I don't really swing that way, and either does Nick. We both have girlfriends." Brian was proud of himself for thinking so quickly. Sheana just looked at Brian and smiled, and splashed Nick with water to get him to stop laughing. The three of them got out of the water together and went over and picked up Kevin's lawn chair. Moving quickly, they threw Kevin into the water, when he came up he was sputtering, and the three of them cannon balled him. Kevin grabbed Sheana around the waist and pulled her under.

"CHICKEN FIGHT!" Brian and Nick yelled together. Brian climbed onto Nick's shoulders and Sheana climbed onto Kevin's shoulders. The four of them were chicken fighting when Howie and Sam got back, and heard them in the pool screaming and laughing. The two of them walked together out to the pool to see what was going on.

"Hey guys, What's up? Who's night is it to make dinner?" Howie asked while walking down to the other end of the pool with Sam.

"It's Make your own tonight." Nick yelled, trying not to lose concentration.

"No, it isn't. Nick you have to make dinner tonight. You know the deal." Howie yelled back. Him and Sam went back into the house to watch some TV. Twenty minutes later, Sheana, Kevin, Nick, and Brian came inside. All exhausted from the chicken fighting, they collapsed on the floor.

"Yo, Nick. It is 7 o'clock and I am hungry. Where is my dinner?" Brian asked, while getting towels for everyone.

"FINE! I will make dinner tonight. What do you guys want, and how many?" After calling AJ, Nick started to make his world famous spaghetti. He had a lot of food to make, but not a lot of time to do it in, because everyone was gettin kinda hungry.

Sheana and Kevin were outside talking about Adrianne, when AJ came outside.

"Hey Kev, Hi Shea. What's up guys? Have you talked to Adrianne lately?"

"Hi Bone, yeah I have. I have to call my Mom tomorrow. Adrianne has this wild idea..... that me and her are related.....''Kevin trailed off. Not wanting to go into details.
