Adam shook his head. "and you'll get mad coz the girl's are mad- especially Auru. I know the deal. jeez... the shepards and the girls are close…" then he realised he was like that as well, he hated the idea of anyone making Auru or Tala angry or upset, but he wasn't about to admit it. "don't worry, no one gets hurt! least of all… Lewis… and especially not Tala," he smirked, "it involves you and me goin out tonight- it is friday right?" Connor nodded slowly, looking suspisious, "right- me and you, boys night out. i know you're taken and in love!" he added as Connor opened his mouth, "but indulge me... i'm a mate who's been in a bad mood and you're taking me out into town, to a few clubs... harmless. plan?"
he wasn't sure that telling Connor his whole plan was a good idea or not yet. but as long as he agreed to this… all the rest would follow nicely.

Connor sighed, "Alright, but if Auru's not awake by the time we leave, which is a large possibility, I think I screwed her sleep schedule, if she gets mad it's your fault. Okay? It was jacks turn for shopping so he should be getting home soon and we can tell him about it when he gets back."

"awesome!" grinned Adam, "you ain't gonna regret this. i've got a few contacts in bars and security in this town, so we'll get in pretty easily." Connor still looked suspisous. "look, you just need to keep me company so i don't look like a moron on my own. known my luck i'll get called a perv or something." he rolled his eyes. finally, a way to prove that he was right and they were rong.
(ill do a lil bit of Taa too- just so we no whats happening with them)
that whole time Tala hadn't said a word about the night before, and clearly Lewis had picked up on it. that whole day they hung out at his run down little, cozy flat, eating, drinking, drawing, talking- it was fun. it had been the first relaxing normal thing she had done in a while. she missed the hang out days she used to have with her aunt, and hanging out with Lewis fitted the bill perfectly.
eventually she felt a vibration in her pocket. she jumped about a foot in the air and cursed loudly.
"whats wrong?!" asked Lewis, spinning round, splattering paint every where, he was starting on a new portrait, that he was refusing to let Tala see.
"uh well…" she trailed off blushing, she held out her ringing phone, "it kinda... scared me..."
Lewis stared at it, then at her, and burst out laughing. "answer it then!" he spluttered, turning back to his work, shaking his head.
"you shuddit!" comlained Tala, pressing the answer button, "buzzing scares me! 'ello?" she added down the phone.
"Tals?" came a familliar voice, "you ready to come back yet?"
"yeah sure," she replied easily, "hey Jack- you mind comin' 'ere… i uh… dunno where shops are..."
Jack sounded exasperated for a second then; "fine! put Lewis on the phone, he can direct me."
smiling slightly, she held the phone out for lewis to take.

Connor and Adam came stumbling into the living room where Jack and Tala were sitting. Auru still hadn't woken up. The only reason they had stumbled was because Adam had refused to go in, and Connor had given up persuading him and pushed him into the room instead, as Adam refused to let go.

"Wha' are yer doin'?" asked Tala, eye brows raised at the two young men, she would have loved to say boys, but the word was certainly not applicable.
"we're going out," blurted out Adam.
"that's... nice..." said Tala slowly, looking back at the TV screen, looking a bit worried, she glanced at Jack, who was smirking slightly. "have fun..."
"yeah, see you soon."
"why you going??" asked Jack suddenly.
"i'm taking Adam," said Connor immediately, "guys night out... you know. to cheer him up. he's been mopey for ages, and there are just somethings girls cant do when they talk." he smiled kindly at Tala.
"you boys have fun," said Jack, looking uncomfortable.
"see ya bro," said Connor quietly, "you eat woman!" he added to Tala, who had aparently not eaten all day. he grinned at her as she looked up him with firey eyes.
"leave now... before you both are unable to," she said quietly, not even looking at them.
the two left looking at each other, shrugging.
"you alrigh'?" asked Tala, quietly.
Jakc sighed. "he was my older brother," he murmered, "i'm just not used to it... but i will... he's my little brother now, and i have to protect him."
Tala sighed slightly, then went against all the barriers that Jack seemed to have set up, she pulled herself over to Jack, and settled her head on his shoulder, curling her body into his side. she felt him tense, then allow his arm to settle round her slight body. she smiled, glad that he didn't freeze that she had allowed her feelings of daughterly love towards him to show.
"i's alrigh' Jack, i'll feel normal soon… sor' of…" she looked up at him, kissed his rough cheek, and settled her head back on his shoulder again.
"i hope to Tals," he murmered softly, kissing her hair, "i hope so..."

(still dunno what to post XP)
The two boys exited the house, Connor letting Adam take the lead. He had been here about 2 months now, but he still didn;t know the city very well. That, and Adam knew where he wanted to go.
"So, where are we heading?" Connor asked, breaking the silence that had begun.
*
Auru had been, in fact, awake for an hour now. She just didn;t feel like getting out of bed, stared at random things around her room until the last of the sleepiness faded. It was then that she decided to "wake up".
Fully dressed, she wandered out into the main living room area, where she found Jack and Tala. They looked so much like father and daughter like that, Auru smiled.
"Everything okay?" she asked, coming in and sitting on Jacks other side.

"No' much," grinned Tala, "Jack's getting weirded ou' by Connor bein' 'is lil brother now, bu' i promised he'll get used to i'. And tha' ter be hones' we're 'is lil girls." she looked up at Jack, he reminded her a little of how she wished her own father had been. "and we're also decidin wha' we wanna watch and wha' we wan' fer dinner, coz i's jus' the three of uz ternigh'. Connor took Adam ou' ter cheer 'im up. I 'ope ter god it works."
"me too.." said Jack quietly, "kinda miss the Adam we had before."
"even if yer wardered me off 'im?"
"yes..." he said seriously.
*
"i've got a mate who bounces at Open Notice, the new club that's open, and the guy behind the bar there. I actually kinda got them their job's so we'll head there," he grinned at his friend. "yes i hang out with weird people."
"i wasn't going to say that," said Connor easily.
"suuuuuure..."
it took them about ten minutes to get to Open Notice. Though their conversation was punctured with short quiets, they were never very uncomfortable, they just there.
"here we are," said Adam, stopping in the middle of his theory of a paradox, that he didn't really understand. He pointed to the enterance of the club. It was besides too buildings, and all there was to show it was a club was two bouncers, a red barrier and a line trying to get in. otherwise, it looked like a glass enterance to an underground metro station.
Connor raised his eye brows, "where?"
"under ground," Adam replied, "c'mon, my mate's at the door, he'll let us in."

"Ah," Auru nodded, grinning, and hugged Jack, "Though, I suppose he'll have to look at me as more of a younger sister, after all, I am dating his brother."
"Good point," Jack sighed, but was smiling, "The good thing is that I don;t have to worry about you two and who you're dating. You two are very perfect for each other."
Auru grinned as well at that, "Thanks. I don;t think theres anybody else for me. So, whose cooking tonight since it was actually Adam's turn?"
*
"Wow." was all Connor could say when Adam's friend allowed them in, "This place, I've never seen one like it."
The club was huge, seeing as it was underground. Lights, enough to make one dizzy if you stared at just them for too long. Lots of people were here tonight, if Connor wasn;t completely taken, this would be a perfect night for picking up some ladies. In fact, some were sliding up to the two men already.
"hey, handsome." One of the two said, getting rather close for comfort to Connor.
"Thanks for the compliment. But I'm taken." he said, taking a step back and making it clear that he was completely disinterested.

"I'LL COOK!" said Tala happily, sitting up suddenly, Auru and Jack looked at each other, "wha?"
"last time you cooked when you were acting like this..." said Jack, ruffling her short hair, "you burnt it then called a take out shop."
"c'n we 'ave take ow' then?" asked Tala, pouting, "i feel like a real greasey burga ternigh'."
"be grateful you don't look like one," Jack seriously, only to be whacked round the head, as Tala sat upm with her arms crossed like a little girl not getting her own head. Jack laughed, kissed her head, then looked at Auru, nestled into his other side. "what do you think, Auru? Take out or Tala's cooking when she's on a high?"
*
Adam wished he knew it was like to like a girl so much he would turn away the attention from a pretty girl. the girl next to him was stunning.
"hey baby," she said, she sounded lovely, her voice very slightly surred from drink, but Adam could already tell she would be a complete bimbo, not that he minded. it was almost what he needed for the short term plan.
"hey to you too gorgeous," he responded, looking down at her blue eyes, light skin and coppery red hair. she was wearing a short dress, green, completely backless, and very form fitting. On her legs were black fishnets, and high heels black shoes, he was surprised that she was still stable in them, "who you like a drink?" she smiled at her, the smile he knew could win over any woman if he wanted it too.
she giggled, which confirmed the air head that he thought she was, and smirked at him, "sex on the beach please," she lowered her eyes as though looking him down then raised them again, studying his mouth as she did so.
oh she's good, Adam thought as he turned to his friend behind the bar, ordering himself a beer and her the cocktail.

Auru rolled her eyes, then looked at Jack, "Do you really need to ask?"
he laughed, "Alright, Tala, order take out. And I forget, isn;t it my turn to choose the movie?"
"Sure, if you're willing to give up your choice for movie night on friday for now." Auru told him, "else we'll have to try and agree on something, which never works."
"Alright, alright already." he said, getting up and going over to the movie cabinet, "I'll choose."
***
"Just a dacary over here." Connor said, sitting on Adams other side.
As the drinks were being made, Connor watched Adam and the girl exchange small talk, the exact stuff Connor used to do, be interested in. This whole scene used to be him. Due to the fact that he was a super, and in Jacks and his old city everybody knew what their whole team looked like, sure he flirted with girls and they flirted back, but he usually never got farther than making out. If they began to, the "supers" signal was sent out and Connor had no choice but to fufill his duty. Back then it had always irritated him, but now he was glad for that. Having that kind of a past wouldn;t be good on his conciusness(sp?) now, he would feel very unfaithful to Auru, even though it had happened before-hand.
Looking at Adam, he wished he could tell the younger boy the same, but he wouldn;t understand. Not until he met the girl that meant as much to him that Auru did to Connor.

"BURGER BURGER!" chanted Tala happily, skipping over to a wireless phone, punching in the local take ways number quickly, "hey! Barry? Yo it's Talise- yeah tha weirdo," she grinned, she amount of times tht some one had messed up their cooking meant that they were on first name terms with the local fast food chain, "do me a favour would ya lad?… c'n yer bring uz the usual?… ye i no- they wen' owt, bu' they'll be 'ungrey wen they ge' 'ome. cheers, pal, see yer in a bit!"
she practically skipped into the TV room to see what Jack had picked, she hoped it wasn't going to be some kinda soppy movie- she was by no means in the mood.
*
Her name turned out to be Sandy. She was in university reading English and coputer sciences. she only got in because her father was the dean. Adam was right. a pretty face- but absolutely no substance.
"what about u?" she asked politely, again giving him the once over, she leaned in closer, her clevage practically falling out of her dress, "what do you do?"
"i gave up on uni," he lied, "i just do work now. not doing to badly really. bit of money, i share a flat with some good people. i'd love to have my own place- but ya know how it is. i just need to get set up." he knew all too well she didn't know how it is. evidently life had been made very easy for her.
"of coarse," she replied airly, she glanced at Connor, then leaned in closer to Adam, he took the hint and leaned in too, "how's about we ditch this place. find somewhere a little more… comfortable."
'she works fast,' thought Adam mildly, but out loud he said. "i'd love to babe," he said comfortably, reaching round to push a lock of hair away from her face, "but i promise my flat mates i'd b home at a decent time, and i gotta keep mi m8 company. he's love sick right now, so he can't have any fun." he allowed his eyes to drift down then up again, :if you know what i mean."
she smirked. "ah well… here, i'll give you my number. maybe we could… meet up some time?" she reached into her bag and pulled out a card and pen. she scribbled a number on the back and handed it to me.
he took it, and smiled. "love to Sandie." he bent down and kissed her softly on the mouth. just for a moment, it was almost a butterfly kiss, "i can't wait," he murmered, and pulled away.
Sandie looked momentarily surprised, then she smiled back, waved her fingers and left.
"and that my friend," said Adam, "is my plan and my proof." he looked up and grinned at Connor.

Auru could hear Tala talking on the phone to whomever picked up that time, and she watched Jack pick out a movie. He had his favorites, but he seemed to be in a more of an excitement mood tonight. Maybe, just maybe, he would choose something he didn't very often.
Tala came back in, another good thing about being in the good of the local fast food restraunts; you didn;t need to take ten minutes to place an order, they already knew what you liked. jack pulled back from the movie cabinet, and Auru smiled. This was going to be a fun night. He went over to the dvd player, and inserted the movie before sitting down between his girls on the couch again. Auru handed hin the dvd remote, his day, his control.
on the screen came up the beginning credits for Pirates of the Carribean.
***
"Your plan and your proof?" Connor asked, eyebrows raised, his drink half gone.
He sincerely hoped that Adam didn;t mean that. The bar scene. Nothing but trouble. Who knew how many men she had gone through in a night, who knew how badly she could wreck Adam's life. If only the boy knew, but he didn;t want Adam to suffer like he did to learn it. So many if onlys...
