"Brian? Shelby is the one who I used to pick on right?" Nick asked with a sly grin.

Brian began to hysterically laugh.

"Yup....Shelby is the one you shoved ice cubes down her shirt! Also the one who you sprayed with silly string! Oh yeah and the one that you used that fake spider on!!!" Brian said.

Both Nick and Brian triumphantly slapped each other with a High-Five!

"Man!! That was a REAL good one! That was like, 5 years ago!" Nick said amazed.

"Yeah....that was a while ago! Shelby and Krissie are so much fun. I feel bad for Shelby though...she has been through so much!" Brian said. He seemed to soften up his facial expressions.

"With her mother and father right?" Nick asked.

Brian nodded his head.

"Yeah, they have been staying with my mom and dad for about a year." Brian said.

Nick chugged his Mountain Dew.

"Well, I think that they will have fun down here in Florida! I can't help but wonder what Shelby looks like? Krissie was just a baby when I was in Lexington with you." Nick asked.

"I saw a few pics of the girls. Krissie is a cutie! She may be a bit young for you though Nicky!" Brian laughed.

Nick smacked him upside the head with a pillow.

"But Shelby is 16! Something tells me that you might suddenly feel terrible for all those pranks you pulled on her!" Brian said.

"Oh yeah! And why is that?" Nick asked.

Just then the door bell rang.

DING DONG!!!!!

Shelby and Krissie stood on Brian and Kevin's front porch. Both girls admired the beauty of the house. It was very large. But yet, they guessed it would have to be, with all of the guys sometimes staying here all at once. Shelby had her L.L. Bean back pack drapped over her shoulder, and she had 3 duffel bags on the ground. Krissie had a matching back pack, with 2 duffel bags.

"There here!" Brian yelled.

"I'll get it!" Nick yelled.

"NO! I'll get it!" Brian screamed.

"I SAID ME!" Nick yelled.

"NO, ME!!!" Brian yelled.

Shelby and Krissie listened in on the bickering that was going on behind the closed door. They both began to laugh.

"That sounds like Brian!" Krissie said.

"Yeah...but who is the other voice?" Shelby questioned.

Brian had tripped Nick, and Nick layed on the floor. Brian stood up and brushed himself off.

"Like I said before...I'll get it!" Brian said.

He pulled open the door. Standing in front of him were his two favorite cousins. "His Girls" as he called them. Kevin reffered to them as "His Girlies".

"Brian!!!" Krissie yelled.

She ran into his arms.

"Kris-Kris" He said pulling on her pig tails.

Brian glanced at Shelby.

"Do I get a hug?" Brian said with a goofy grin.

"Of course you do!" Shelby walked into his arms and hugged him tightly.

The girls walked into the hallway and noticed Nick on the floor. He was completely speachless. For probably the first time in his whole life!!

"Nick you remember Shelby right? And this little munchkin is Krissie!" Brian said.

He picked her up and flung her over his shoulders.

Nick stood up slowly.

"Yeah....I remember Shelby. It's good to see you again!" Nick said shaking her hand.

Shelby reached out to shake his hand. When they touched they both felt some weird kind of tingling.

"Hi Nick! Good to see you again too!!" She said happily.

Brian laughed at Nick. But Nick gave Brian a look that said. "You forgot to tell me that the girl I used to pick on grew up into this!" Brian and Nick helped Shelby and Krissie situate themselves. Then they just sat back and played N64 untill Kevin, A.J., and Howie came back from the store.
