My Brothers Rival

CHAPTER 4} THE PARTY - PART 2

Dean and I lose track of time getting to know each other on the balcony before we know it the balcony doors open to reveal Nikki. "Shantelle hey I've been looking for you all over the place. Your brother just arrived and was wanting to see you for himself, to know that you're okay." She tells us just before Jacob appears right behind her. "Uhmm .... Dean .... Vicki Hawthorne just showed up .... " Before he has a chance to finish, we all turn our attention to Dean, as we hear him say "Aww just f*****g great."

" yeah, that's not all. She's with uhm .... James More", Jacob finishes saying. I have to admit it took me a second to catch on, but I was quite proud of myself how quickly I had. "I take it Vicky is more than just a friend to you, as well as my brother ??" I asked Dean as I look at him to see his reaction, which quite honestly he's wearing quite the poker face. "She has been trying to get me to make her my girlfriend for a minute now. Is it safe to assume she's doing the same with your brother ??" He asked me with a little bit of a half smile on his face, as realization dawn on him. "No, actually that's quite funny because she's been my brother's girlfriend for the last three and a half years." I say mimicking his expression as we both just continue to stare into each other's eyes both of us finding this as equally amusing. "Should we go say hi ??" I asked him. "Oh by all means I think we should." He responds by throwing his arm over my shoulder as we both walk past Nikki and Jacob to go back downstairs. Angry my brother and Vicky are here together. To say the look on both of their faces as we approach was priceless would be an understatement. "I think now would be a good time to let you know so this doesn't catch you too much off guard. That I'm the leader of your brother's rival gang." He says causing my smile to spread even wider if that's even possible, as I take my hand and grab his that's slung over my shoulder and hold onto it tightly as we finish approaching the two.

"Hey James you wanted to see me yourself, so that you know I was okay ?? Well, here I am brother as you can see I'm just fine... Hey are you feeling alright Vicky because you look as if you've seen a ghost ??" I asked her with a smug look on my face that says 'oh you're a busted b***h' as her face goes completely pale white drained of all color. This of course causes my brother to look over at her in confusion and back to me with a look that states 'what do you know that I don't'. That is totally awesome for me because he's now more interested in what made his girlfriend's face go pale then what I'm doing with Dean's arm draped around my shoulder. "Yeah, little sis. I just wanted to make sure you're all right .... You having a good time ??" He asked me with a little bit of worry in his eyes that only I can see because he's my older brother. Other than that he's got a pretty damn good poker face going on as well. "I'm having a blast James thank you so much for letting me come tonight this has been the best night of my life so far !!" I say letting go of Dean's hand and throwing my arms around my brother's neck. Hugging him tightly and genuinely happy and grateful that he let me come to the party and that he's not saying any thing about the fact that I have his rivals arm around my shoulder. I break away from the hug and step back beside Dean as he decides to place his arms around my waist instead of replacing them around my shoulders. Now pulling me into him.

"So wait a minute... I don't understand, are you two like together or something?? Like when did this happen ?? How did this happen??James how could you let something like this happen ??" Vicky finally finds her voice as she asks me the first set of questions before turning the last one on my brother. Actually she more along the line yelled the last question at my brother. This causes him to look at her as if she's just lost her f*****g mind. "Why in the hell are you screaming at me over what is happening with my sister?? Which isn't any of your damn business ?? You surely never gave a damn about what was going on with her before, why do you now all of a sudden ??" He asked her in a rather irritated tone. "You know what baby girl I'm glad you're having fun. I love you and I'll be back here in a little bit all right?? I think Vicky and I need to talk really quickly and this ain't something that needs to be discussed in front of you, you going to be all right for a bit??" He asked me as he leans forward and kisses me on the cheek before looking at Dean and saying, "She's everything to me and I don't give a damn who you are, if anything happens to her you know what's ahead of you !!" Dean looks at my brother, "Regardless of what we got going between us, I genuinely like your sister and I give you my word nothing's going to happen to her She will be safe and sound until you return." He tells my brother simply and in a matter of fact sort of tone. They stare at each other intently, before my brother nods his head up and down and puts his hand out to shake Dean's. Dean returns the gesture before my brother walks away with Vicky in tow. "Well I'll be damned .... I never thought I'd see your brother be okay with any guy touching you in any way, let alone Dean Stark. This ought to be good. Enjoy the rest of the party baby girl we'll talk when you're back home" Ruthless finally speaks up for the first time since Dean and I came down to see my brother, before walking away with his arm around some random girl.

"Ruthless is right you know... I can't believe how smoothly all that just went !!" I say rather excitedly as I throw my arms around Dean's neck and hug him jumping up and down, not even realizing my actions. "You know, that did go a lot smoother than I thought it would. I at least thought he was going to swing on me once maybe twice." Dean said with a laugh. We continue on drinking and getting to know each other laughing and dancing throughout the rest of the night, and through the wee hours of the morning. Until the party's finally over and my brother sends Ruthless to collect me to go back home. "Sorry baby girl, but the party's over for you. James said it's time to go home, he's waiting for you outside to say goodbye to your new boyfriend there so that we can all get back to the house." Ruthless tells me. Not wanting to push my luck I turn to Dean, giving him a hug and saying goodbye. Getting up and slapping, tapping Ruthless, in a up word motion between his legs, before I head out the door to find my brother so we can go home.

James always said that a slap of a tap angled up to a guys junk, was more than enough to get a point across quickly enough.
