    [this is actually really horrible, I'm so sorry]
    Max
    The past week had been excruciatingly long and stressful, and Max couldn't wait to go home and simply relax. His roommate had helped him pack a few days earlier so everything was in the clear to go. Max handed in his last essay final for the semester with a smile. A two hour drive later, Max was pulling into the driveway. Finally. He shut off the ignition, grabbed a few boxes, and trucked into the house. His room looked exactly the way he left it - practically empty. He dropped a few boxes in the closet and a few on his dresser, he'd worry about unpacking later. He looked out his bedroom window to see everyone in the backyard around the pool. He saw Hailey laying by the pool tanning and couldn't pass up the opportunity. Swiftly Max slip into his swim trunks, jogged back downstairs, and out the back door. With a running start, Max cannon-balled right near where Hailey was, inevitably getting her soaked.

    Sitting around, waiting, that is all he had done for the past three weeks. His mom had gotten remarried and now, they were all going to live in the same house like one big happy family. He sighed again and looked over at his mom. At least she is happy. Looking out the window, he pushed himself up as a truck pulled into the driveway. The steps were here. "Mom! They are here!" he called out to her. He walked outside, letting the sun touch his already bronze skin. That was California for you. Watching as two men, well, one man and a teen, climb out of the truck, he nodded toward them. "Hey," he said to them both although stayed far enough away to discourage any touching or hugging. "Tom!!!" his mom yelled out as she ran into the older man's arms and Owen rolled his eyes and chuckled softly.
    Hailey

    She was sitting on a beach chair by the pool, happily dozing away before getting splashed. She let out a small squeak when the cold water hit her skin and she whipped around to see who had done it. Seeing Max in the pool, she screamed and dove in. Jumping onto him, she wrapped her arms around his neck and legs around his waist. "You are home!!" she said happily as she kissed his cheek and held him close to her. "You are home, I have been waiting all day for you!! But Molly and Dad went to the store to get food for dinner tonight but they will be back soon! And I can't believe that you are home!! I missed you so much Maxie!" she said before pulling away slightly and blushing gently. She was beginning to realize that the muscles against her body was doing something. She was suddenly very aware of his skin touching hers.

    Riley
    It didn't take long to reach their new house. Riley climbed out the truck and stood by his dad until a woman practically jumped into his arms. She was obviously Kathy, his new step mom. Already he could tell she was a very happy person, and it probably is what rubbed off on his dad, making him happier than he'd been in years. Riley smiled at the two of them before averting his attention to the boy near the house. Riley cocked an eyebrow and looked him up and down. This was definitely something he could get used to seeing everyday. Riley closed the distance between himself and the other and stuck out his hand, "I'm Riley."
    Max
    As Hailey wrapped herself around Max, he couldn't help but laugh at her excitement, "I missed you too, Hails". He hugged her back quickly, trying to stay afloat. He noticed her blush and smiled. Hair soaked and cheeks pink was a good look on Hailey. Riley could tell she's grown up quite a bit since he'd been away. He hadn't come home on the holidays this year because at the time he had a girlfriend and they visited her folks together instead. A lot changes when you're not around to see it, Riley thought to himself. For some reason Hailey was still clinging on to him, so he gave a devilish smile and dunked them both underwater, then proceeded to tickled her sides.

    Owen

    He glanced at the other teen holding out his hand and slowly shook it. Well, this might not be too bad, he thought as he looked at the other teen for a moment. "I'm Owen," he said, his deep voice coming out in a huskier tone then he meant it to. "Nice to finally meet you," he said before motioning toward the house. "Come on, I can give you the tour," he said as he shoved his hands back into his pockets and began to head toward the house. "So Mom said that you were gonna start at school next week?" he offered as a way of conversation. He honestly didn't know what else to say to the guy that he was supposed to be brothers with now.
    Hailey

    Hailey made a face at his nickname for her before smiling. She let out a shriek when he dunked them before struggling away from him. "Max!!' she cried out as he tickled her. "You are going to make us both drown!!!" she yelled as she struggled away from him in fits of laughter. Finally managing to escape his grasp although she knew it was more because she let her go rather than her actually escaping. She gasped for breath as her chest rose and fell. "Bully," she teased as she stuck her tongue out at Max. She pulled herself out of the pool in one graceful motion before looking over her shoulder at him. "We should get ready. Mom and Dad want a nice family sit down dinner," she explained.

    Riley
    The huskiness of Owen's voice threw Riley off guard, but he recovered quickly and smiled again. He followed the other into the house. Inside he struggled to actually pay attention to small tour and not just watch the way Owen walked, and talked. "Yeah, I'm honestly not looking forward to it. Having to meet all the new faces. At least I go in knowing at least one, right?" Riley let out half a laugh and licked his lips. For some reason he felt nervous and anxious, he had to actually wipe his hands on his jeans because they were sweaty. But maybe he was just still hot from the California heat, the air conditioned house not quite settling in him.
    Max
    Max laughed at Hailey being the drama queen she had always been, sticking out her tongue, "what are step brothers for?" He smiled and followed her to the edge of the pool. He watched her pull herself from the water and bit his lip. At the mention of dinner he nodded and got out of the pool himself. He'd forgotten to grab a towel before coming outside so he squeezed as much water from his shorts as he could and called it good. Leaving a trail of water on the hardwood, he took the stairs two at a time up to his room. He grabbed some clean clothes and took them to the bathroom so he could shower the chlorine off his body.

    Owen

    He watched Riley as he talked before nodding slightly. "It'll be weird at first but I'm sure that you will settle in. I'll introduce you to the guys so you will know someone and for it being California, it is a pretty small school so it shouldn't be too overwhelming," he said as he continued to move through the house and point out stuff before he finally stopped at Riley's bedroom. "This is your room," he said as he gestured inside. He stood to the side to allow Riley to walk in first. "Mom wasn't sure what you wanted so we asked your Dad. Most of this was his idea and I helped out a little with what I thought you might like but yeah..." he said as he trailed off.
    Hailey

    Hailey laughed as she walked inside. Grabbing her towel and clothes, she walked into her bathroom and stripped. She moaned softly as the warm water hit her skin. Quickly taking her shower, she pulled her wet hair back into a messy braid before putting on a light summer dress. She opted no bra although she knew that her boobs bounced a little and if it was too cold her nipples would show but then again she was with family so no problem. Putting on some light make up, she smiled before heading downstairs. "Max?" she called out as she walked down the stairs. She smiled at her parents who had come in and were eagerly looking for their son/stepson.

    Riley
    "Alright, cool," Riley said before Owen showed him his new room. Riley stepped around Owen and inside. He looked around and noticed the room was mostly blue, which was cool since that was his favorite color anyway, and there were far more dresser drawers than he would ever need. But it was nice. "You guys pretty much nailed it." Riley offered a smile and turned towards the other. "But right now I'm starving," he laughed and made way to where his dad and Kathy stood in the kitchen.
    Max
    Hailey called Max's name just as he rounded the corner from the kitchen. "Yes, Hailey?" he started to laugh before he saw her coming down the stairs in her dress. He watched her small figure bounce down the steps and bit his lip. Quickly he turned towards his parents. "Hey mom, Chris," Max said will a smile as he hurried to hug his mother and shake Chris' hand. As Molly cooked she asked Max random questions about how the semester had gone, the now ex-girlfriend, and then told him about her new job and how much she loved it. Max couldn't help but smile the whole time, he was sure by the end of dinner his face would be sore from it.

    Owen

    He looked at Riley and chuckled softly as he followed the other boy into the kitchen. His mom and her new husband were standing in the kitchen making goo goo eyes at each other and he rolled his eyes. "Now that we are done with the initial love fest, could you two maybe feed your starving children?" he asked. His mother laughed before kissing Owen's cheek. "Dinner will be ready in twenty minutes. Can my starving children wait?" she asked as she looked from Riley to Owen. Owen shrugged innocently.
    Hailey

    Hailey watched as Max answered all of their parent's questions and she smiled gently. It was good to have him home, she thought. Her eyes trailed over his body and she bit her lip gently. He had changed since he had left, she thought before looking down at her feet. Looking at her brother like that was making this heat grow in her stomach and she wasn't sure what to do about it. Pushing away from the counter, she walked toward the dining room and began to set the table. Smiling, she helped her mom bring food into the dining room before sitting down in her usual seat, next to her brother and across from her step mom.

    Riley
    Another smile spread across Riley's face as Owen told Kathy of their growing hunger. He followed suit with Owen and shrugged. Then he turned to Owen and scrunched his nose. "I guess I should probably take all my stuff out of the truck and get everything settled in my room now.. mind giving me a hand?" Riley didn't have very many things with him, since he knew his dad was going to furnish his room before they moved in, but he still had quite a bit of clothes and gaming things.
    Max
    Throughout what felt a lot like far more catching up than necessary, Max looked over at Hailey. He watched her watch him, then simply watched her as she set the table. Her dress swished around as she moved around the table, and Max noticed again how nice she looked. During dinner, he couldn't help but constantly steal glances in her direction. Even with her right beside him he felt the need to look over at her. When they finished dinner he told his parents to go relax in the living room, he'd clear the table tonight, something of a homecoming gift to them.

    Owen

    Owen nodded and followed Riley out to the truck. He grabbed a box and his muscles flexing as he lifted the box easily and began to walk inside. "You don't seem to have a lot of stuff," he said thoughtfully. "We can go out and grab some stuff for you for school later in the week," he said gently as he looked over at Riley. "Hey Ri, what do you like to do for fun?" he asked curiously, trying out a new nickname for the boy who is was watching. Riley seemed okay, he thought as he watched him again for a moment before heading to get another box.
    Hailey

    Hailey stood up after dinner and smiled gently as she began to help clear the table. "So they are excited to have you back," she said as she nudged her hip against his and winked before beginning to load the dishwasher. She smiled at him before moving around him and grabbing the last of the plates. "Well, that's that," she said as she winked at him playfully. "So have anything in mind with what to do for the rest of the night?" she asked him before realizing that she was in between him and the counter although there was still room for her to move if she wanted to.

    Riley
    It only took a couple trips with both of them stacking boxes and bags to get all of his things unloaded from the truck. Riley tried to keep his eyes off Owen, but it was a challenge when the boy was something so nice to look at. "I already almost forgot about school," Riley laughed, "but yeah, that's be cool." He picked up the last box and raised an eyebrow at the way "Ri" rolled off Owen's tongue so effortlessly. He followed the other in the house. "I'm a pretty indoorsy person honestly. I game and watch movies most of the time. But every now and then I went to parties back home. What about you?
    Max
    "Well I'm happy to be back," Max smiled back. He laughed at the way she basically did all the work for him, but didn't bother objecting. "I was thinking of going to the beach pier, but I'm also thinking of just staying in the house tonight." When she turned around they were face to face. Max swallowed his breath and looked at Hailey. This close he could smell the same old shampoo she had always used. The corner of his mouth twitched up in a smile. The way she'd been winking all night was nearly driving him mad. "What do you want to do tonight?" he asked in a low voice.

    Owen

    "Um....I'm more of an outdoorsy person," he admitted. "Although I do love a good movie or something like that, I definitely would rather be at the beach or something," he said as he rubbed the back of his neck. "Well..." he said as he cleared his throat. "Um...do you need help unpacking?" he asked before his mother called them down to dinner. Owen turned and headed down, making sure to wait for Ri just to make sure the other boy found his way. The house was big and fairly confusing. He walked into the kitchen and grinned. "Smells great Mom," he said with a smile. He glanced over at Riley and smiled before looking at the man that his mom had married.
    Hailey

    Hailey looked up at him and a shiver ran through her body at his voice. She could feel her nipples harden and and she crossed her arms in front of her chest in an attempt to hide it. Clearing her throat so her voice was slightly less husky, she said "Well...Molly and Chris are going to bed soon so...." she said as she watched him for a moment before looking down at her feet. Her mind whirling for ideas that would keep her step brother close to her. "We could play a game or something?" she asked, her voice still not returning to normal. "Like battleship or truth or dare or something?" she offered knowing that they were games they used to play with each other all the time.

    Riley
    Riley was about to say no when they were called down for dinner. Instead he smiled and followed Owen to the kitchen. It could take some time getting used to such a large house. It was far bigger than the house he and his dad lived in. The smell of spaghetti filled the kitchen. Riley grabbed a plate and took a seat at the table across from Owen. He pilled some noodles on his plate and covered it in sauce and Parmesan. "Oh man, this is the best spaghetti I've ever had," Riley mused between bites.
    Max
    He watched Hailey fold her arms and noticed exactly why she'd done it. He could see right through her lightly colored sundress.The urge to kiss her flooded Max's thoughts, but he pushed them away just as quick as they came. Definitely not appropriate. The change in her voice made it difficult to keep those very thoughts away though. He smiled at the mention of the games they had always played growing up. "Truth or dare sounds fun," he said before stepping back and giving himself room to breathe.

    Owen

    Owen smiled and kissed his mom's cheek gently before grabbing a plate and loading it with spaghetti. "Hey Mom, me and the guys are going to go out tomorrow," he said before glancing at Riley. "You can come if you want. We are going to go paint balling," he said as he looked at the other boy. "Actually, it would be great if you came because then the teams would finally be even," he said thoughtfully. He began to dig into the food as he waited for Riley's answer.
    Hailey

    Hailey looked up at Max. As he moved away, she had to consciously fight the urge to not move closer to him again. "Okay," she said softly as she continued to look at him. Her eyes traced over his face, following his jawline down to the column on his neck and she bit her lip as a soft whimper slipped past her lips. She quickly cleared her throat again. "Okay...well...you picked so I go first and I pick dare," she said as she watched him before looking down at her feet.

    Riley
    His eyes lit up at the offer. "Oh sweet! Alright, I'm totally in," Riley answered with a smile. Paint balling sounded like an awesome and Riley had never actually done it before. Plus it was a chance for him to meet some other people besides just Owen. Still, he looked forward to spending time Owen, just to get to know him better. The rest of dinner was nice and Riley was already ready for the next day to come. He groaned when they finished dinner, remembering he still needed to unpack the things in his bedroom. Riley excused himself from the table and headed upstairs.
    Max
    The way Hailey's eyes ran over him made him hot. Her soft whimper was enough to make Max give up on resisting his urges. "I dare you.." He thought for less than a minute before stepping into the small space between them. "Don't move," he said in a near whisper. He lifted his hand and ran his finger over the scar on Hailey's cheek. "Don't move," he repeated. He slipped his hand down her neck and leaned in to kiss her. He drew back almost immediately, not sure whether with regret or instinct.

    Owen

    He looked over when Riley groaned, a little startled by the noise and also curious.Watching as he walked away, Owen continued to chat with his parents. Something about Riley drew him in. He wanted to know more about the boy, he thought, which was strange, he had never experienced these kinds of feelings toward another guy before. Sighing softly, he attempted to focus back on dinner. He pushed himself away from the table and thanks his mom for dinner before heading upstairs as well.
    Hailey

    Hailey breath caught when he moved closer to her and she watched. She shivered slightly at the feelings of his hand on her cheek and almost unconsciously, she reached up and rested her hands on his chest. "Max," she breathed out before he kissed her. Her eyes were closed but they quickly fluttered open when he pulled away and she watched him. She knew she should feel something like regret or disgust but she didn't. She just wanted more.

    Riley
    Back in his room, Riley hustled to get everything put away and since there wasn't much it didn't take very long. He left his Xbox for last and began to set it up. All the packing and unpacking he'd done throughout the day, not to mention eating so much at dinner, had made him tired. He grabbed the controller and decided to just stay in his room and play a game for awhile.
    Max
    It was a quick kiss, almost not a kiss at all. "Sorry," he said quickly. He wasn't quite sure what he was apologizing for. For kissing her or breaking the kiss so quickly. Max felt the way Hailey shivered under his touch and he knew he wanted to do it again. He waited for her to move away or say something, but when she didn't right away he tossed the idea of waiting. He grabbed her face and kissed her again. He let his hands dropped to her hips, pulling her closer until her body was pressed against his, allowing him to feel her hard nipples against his chest.

    Owen

    He walked into his room and sat down on the bed. Laying back down on the pillow, he relaxed and let out a low sigh. He tossed his arm over his eyes as he began to doze off. It had been a stressful day with all of the moving and stuff and now he was getting these reactions toward Riley. Groaning softly,he felt himself harden as he pictured Riley and without thinking, he was reaching down into his pants and stroking himself off.
    Hailey

    Hailey moaned softly as he pulled her into another kiss. Reaching up, she wrapped her arms around his neck and tangled her fingers in his hair as she fought to press herself closer to him. His hands heating her hips caused a shiver to run up her body and she knew she wanted his hands everywhere. She moaned again as her nipples rubbed over his hard chest. "Max," she whimpered out as she pulled away to catch her breath.

    Riley
    Sometime during playing, Riley had fallen asleep. He rubbed his eyes and stood up to stretch, then glanced at the clock realizing he hadn't been asleep for very long. Riley left his bedroom and trucked down the hallway in search of the bathroom. Of course, there were several doors in the hall and Riley couldn't remember which one was the bathroom. After opening two closet doors and the laundry room door, Riley figured he would have better luck to just ask Owen where the bathroom was since Owen's room was the only one he seemed to remember. From just outside the closed door, Riley could hear a muffled noise that sounded like a moan. He bit his lip and knocked on the door, "Owen?"
    Max
    Hailey's moan made Max grow hard. He pulled her hips into his again before trailing one hand up her back. He loved the way her body was reacting to his touch and he loved the feeling of her body against his. Max loosened his grip on Hailey when she pulled away and said his name. He swallowed hard as he looked down at her. They had known each other almost all their lives and up until now he had never felt such a craving for her. His breathing was anything but steady as he moved away slightly. He opened his mouth to say something but he wasn't even sure what he wanted to say.
