               “So, were you so enthralled with the young man that you couldn’t keep your eyes on the road instead of off him?” is the first thing that Roger questions as I sit across from him at the kitchen table. Having to explain this little ‘date’ ordeal to my family is a bit embarrassing.

                “No, I was hungry. It was the burger on the display at McDonald’s that I couldn’t keep my eyes off, can’t you just spare me the embarrassment and just arrange to pay for the damage?” I cross my arms over my chest. This confession does not help my situation.

                “Oh god Khloe, the burger, really?” Kohl gasps from his spot on the floor where he currently resides laughing his butt off.

                “Kohl stop laughing at your sister, and Roger stop harassing the girl, you’ll pay either way,” Claire scolds as she strolls in bouncing a giddy Lucy on her hip.

                “Lucy, why aren’t you asleep baby?” Kohl asks as he pushes me out of the way and takes my little baby into his arms. I scowl as he sways her in the air.

                She’s my baby.

                “Let me see her,” I move closer to Kohl, only for him to move away from me.

                “Come on Lucy, come with uncle Kohl,” he coos as he takes her with him upstairs. With a huff I trail after them, leaving a laughing Claire and a smirking Roger behind. My footsteps echo the empty hallway, leaving me alone to my thoughts.

                I smile at the memory of Kohl glaring at Drew, assuming his big brother role, as he walked me to the door. The crestfallen face Drew permanently wore on his face at the thought of his wrecked car is still burning clear. I bring a hand up to my mouth to trap the laughter that wants to escape as I stand in Kohl’s doorway watching him put on a show for Lucy.

                “I like big butts and I cannot lie..,” his hands hold a bouncing Lucy as their smiling figures sit on his bed.

                “Kohl, why are you singing that to her?” I huff as I walk into the surprisingly neat room. Guess they did show him something in military school.

                “What, she likes it, just look at that face,” he pouts. I think he’s influenced Lucy a little too much because as he brings their faces together, they both give me award winning pouts.

                “Lucy, ignore uncle Kohl,” I state as I sit on the other side of the bed.

                "Lucy, listen to uncle Kohl, he knows what he's doing," he counters as he continues to play with Lucy. I have a feeling that there's a double meaning in there somewhere.

                "Whatever Kohl, I'm sleepy," I yawn as I try to get a hold of my baby to go to bed.

                "Come dear, come to your wiser, better looking brother," he places Lucy on his chest as he lays back in his bed, motioning for me to go to him.

                "And modest too," I huff as I curl up into his side. Since when did my big brother get so comfortable?

                "That's it, I'm like a big teddy bear, I know," he pats my back as I lay with him. I don't even take the time to throw a comeback as I close my eyes.

                "You know, mom and dad would've been very proud of you, little sis," is the last thing I hear him murmur as I succumb to sweet bliss.
