Jessika rolled over as she heard laughter from outside, specifically next door. She pulled herself out of bed, looking out her window. There were new neighbors moving in. She frowned and made her way out of her room, going next door to her sister Brandie's room. She opened the door and saw her sister sitting at her computer desk. Jessika plopped down on her bed, picking at her nail polish, "I think we have new neighbors moving in." she remarked, getting her sister's attention.

"I know. I already spied on them." Brandie remarked, before turning back to her computer. Jessika got up once more and went to her sister's window, looking out. "Oh...I think it's two boys...they look hot. We should go meet them...say hi." she said, moving away from the window once more and looking at her sister. Their father was still asleep so if they girls were back in the house before he woke up then they should be okay.

"Vic, catch!" Mike shouted as he tossed his older brother a box. He chuckled when Vic almost stumbled, trying to catch the box. "Mike, you ass!" Vic mumbled. "Oh chill out princess, that was a light box." he said, hopping down off of the moving van. He pulled the last of their boxes out before looking around. "Welcome to our new home." he smirked.

Mike and Vic had recently moved out of their parents home and gotten their own place. Their dad was okay with it but their mom was really iffy about it but eventually came around once the brothers kept talking about it. Mike helped Vic carry in the last of the boxes before stretching, "I need a beer and a cigarette. Want a beer?" he asked his brother as he went to the fridge.

Brandie closed her laptop and bit her bottom lip. She was weighing her chances. Brandie really wanted to go say hi to the new neighbors, but she also didn't want to risk facing the wrath of her father. Eventually, Brandie sighed and stood up.

"Okay," she whispered, shifting from foot to foot. "Let's go...but we gotta be quick."

Mike grabbed himself a beer from the fridge and sat down on the floor, the couch not being in the house yet. He cracked it open and took a long sip. "I'm amazed Mom hasn't called yet," he observed.

It was a true observation. Mike and Vic's mother was extremely over protective of her two boys-- but after a ton of begging and convincing from himself and Vic, Mama Fuentes had allowed the boys to move on their own.

Jessika nodded and followed her sister downstairs. Their father was passed out on the couch, beer bottles on the floor and on the coffee table. Jessika sighed, shaking her head before walking out of the house. She followed behind her sister to the new neighbors house and stood on the porch while they knocked on the door.

--

"Maybe that's the couch," Mike said, when he heard someone knocking on the door. He took another sip of his beer before placing the can on the counter and heading for the door. He opened it, surprised to see two very beautiful girls standing there. The taller, blonde one caught his attention quickly. "Hello ladies, let me guess...you're part of the welcome wagon?" he chuckled, flashing the girls a pearly white smile.

Brandie waved gently, a small smile on her face. "Hi," she spoke timidily. "I-I'm Brandie, and that's my sister Jessika. We live next door with our dad."

--

Vic got up from the couch, eyeing the two beautiful girls on his front porch. "Hey, ladies..." he spoke, giving the brunette a bright smile. "To what do my brother and I owe the pleasure?"

Jessika waved, "we just wanted to welcome you guys to the neighborhood." she smiled, looking at the shorter one.

"I'm Mike and this is my brother Vic." Mike said. "Do you guys want a beer?" he asked. Jessika looked at her sister before looking back at them, "I don't know if that's a good idea.."

Brandie's blood turned cold at the mention of beer. "N-no... I don't drink and neither does Jessika." She almost blurted it out, then blushed. Brandie could have kicked herself for acting like such a dork.

--

Vic sipped his beer. "Okay then, ladies....we don't really have anything else because we haven't gone grocery shopping." He said apologetically.

"It's okay...maybe you guys can come by later...we got food." Jessika says, giving them a smile. She looked back at her house, "we gotta go though. It was nice meeting you."

"Alright. We'll see you later I guess." Mike said, watching them leave. He looked at Vic, "well?"

Brandie waved goodbye to the boys before following her sister back to their house.

--

Vic sipped his beer again. "Well, I think we have some hot neighbors."

Jessika opened the door and nkticed their dad was gone. She looked at her sister, wondeeing where he could be. "You want some breakfast?" Jessika asked.

Mike grinned, "hell yeah dude. The blonde is smokin hot. You know I have a thing for blondes." he chuckled.

Brandie nodded her head. "Yeah," she spoke gently. "I can throw a couple of waffles in the toaster if you like."

--

"Of course, I've seen tons of them parade out of your room for the past few years." Vic teased.

Jessika nodded, "sounds good. I'll see if we got any bacon." she said, going into the kitchen. She opened the fridge and tried looking for the bacon or at least some sausage to go with the waffles.

--

Mike laughed, "hey, let's see if you can actually get laid here, big brother." he teased. "I'm kidding, but really...you need to step up your game in the ladies department man."

Brandie grabbed the Eggos out of the freezer and headed over to the toaster, humming as she put them in. Once she pushed the little lever, Brandie headed to the fridge to grab a coke.

--

Vic shrugged his shoulders. "I'm just not really in the mood to sleep with the first random girl that spreads her legs open, is all."

"We don't have any bacon or sausage." Jessika frowned. "What do you think of the neighbors?"

--

"I bet you would for our dark haired neighbor. I saw you checkin her out." Mike smirked.

Brandie thought briefly. "Ehh. They seem like nice guys." But Brandie really didn't trust guys....she thought they were all like her father.

--

Vic nodded his head. "Yeah, she's cute, but who knows. She seems kinda shy."

"The taller tattooed one kept checking you out." Jessika giggled.

--

"Well you can help her with that. Use that Fuentes charm." Mike chuckled.

Brandie looked up, blushing slightly. "He did? I didn't notice," She spoke, taking the waffles out of the toaster.

--

Vic rolled his eyes. "Fuentes charm... isn't that what caused Stacy Bates to slap you in the face at prom?" He smirked.

@ lorna morello.
"Yeah...Mike I think was his name. He's cute." Jessika giggled.

--

"What? No," Mike laughed, "okay maybe so...but still. It could work for you."

Brandie blushed gently. "Yeah... he was kinda cute."

--

Vic nodded his head. "Yeah, cause I don't start groping girls right away."

"I like the shorter one. We're the same height." Jessika giggled.

--

"Neither do I!" Mike laughed.
