I woke up the next morning and I was actually in a very good mood. The day seemed like it was going to be a good day. I didn't have to check on anyone, my house was in order and I was feeling amazing. Ace followed me downstairs and before I went to the kitchen I went to my stereo in the living room, turned on some music and turned it all the way up. AC/DC 'You Shook Me All Night Long' started playing. I looked at Ace, he barked as I started bouncing around and dancing on my way to the kitchen singing along. I started the coffee and then feed Ace as I still danced around the kitchen singing the song.

🎵Had to cool me down to take another round
Now I'm back in the ring to take another swing
That the walls were shaking, the Earth was quaking
My mind was aching and we were making it
And you shook me all night long
Yeah, you shook me all night long
And knocked me out, I said
You shook me all night long
You had me shaking and you shook me all night long
Yeah, you shook me
Well, you took me🎵

When I turned around I saw everyone standing there looking thoroughly pissed off, well except for Clay and Jensen who were smiling.

"Shit..." I said as Clay raised the remote for the stereo and turned it down.

"Forget you weren't home alone?" Clay asked and I nodded.

"I did..." I said and he groaned. "Sorry." I said and he shook his head.

"Can't fault the taste is music." Jensen said and I smiled at him.

"All this man." I said pointing to Clay and he nodded.

"My rocker girl." Clay said and I laughed.

"Well lets see when you sing me to sleep with Back in Black when I was a kid, what do you expect from me?" I asked as I continued cooking.

"I expect common courtesy and not a rude wake up call." I heard Aisha say and I groaned.

"Well sweetie, my house, my rules, my music. This isn't the four seasons. If you don't like it you know where the door is." I said and she looked at Clay as did I. "Don't you dare take sides. I apologized to all of you, if she doesn't want to accept it, that's on her." I said and Clay sighed and looked at Aisha and gave a small smile.

"She did apologize..." Clay said. Aisha just walked into the kitchen and poured herself a cup of coffee.

"I could have gotten that for you." I said and she smiled annoyed at me.

"I didn't want it to be poisoned." She said

"Aisha!" Clay said.

"There is still a chance with your breakfast." I said.

"Shane!" Clay said and to grounded. Aisha walked away. I looked at everyone else.

"Food will be done soon, I will start making extra." I said and everyone nodded. Jensen stayed back.

"Can I help?" Jensen asked and I nodded.

"I would love that, thank you." I said as everyone else walked out. I looked at Jensen. "If you are here to watch me to make sure I don't poison her..." I said and he laughed.

"Just helping cook." Jensen said and I smiled. Soon we were finished cooking as I started putting it on the table. I noticed the music was still playing when we all sat down to the table and I noticed it was Highway to Hell. I smiled at Jensen and he shook his head knowing what was coming.

"Hey Aisha, if you were still wanting to leave they are telling you what highway to take." I said and Clay ground. Cougar, Pooch and Jensen all tried not to laugh. Clay grabbed the remote and changed the song.

"Be nice." Clay said as he changed the song. We all started eating and I heard the song that was on now and I smiled at Clay.

"AC/DC to Journey...nice change." I said to Clay and he smiled. 'Any Way You Want It' started playing and I was taping my foot to the song.

"Shaney, your theme song is playing!" Aisha said in a girly voice and I glared at her.

"Clay..." Cougar said seeing the glare. I picked up a sharp knife from the table and threw it spiraling towards Aisha, she ducked and it stuck in the wall behind her. This was met with tons of yells from the guys in shock and a little fear.

"Don't call me that! Only he can call me that!" I yelled point to Clay. I pushed back from the table and rushed upstairs.

"Fuck..." Clay said.

"Did you know she had that kind of knife training?" Pooch asked.

"Who do you think bought her the first switchblade and taught her." Clay said. Everyone groaned and sat in silence.

💥💥💥💥💥

I ran up to my room and locked the door. I didn't want to be disturbed by anyone. I wanted to be left alone. I didn't know who this girl thought she was coming into my house, sleeping with my father and just thinking she ran the place and could do whatever she wanted. Yeah sure I made some quips too but still. I was sitting on the edge of my bed looking at my hands in my lap and trying to fight back tears when I heard the music get really loud again and a song start playing and I just gave a small smile. I just heard the song until I heard Clay singing outside of my door.

🎵I've got so much honey
The bees envy me
I've got a sweeter song
Than the birds in the trees
Well, I guess you'd say
"What can make me feel this way?"
My girl, my girl, my girl
Talkin' 'bout my girl
My girl🎵

I got up and opened the door a crack and peeked out to see Clay leaning in the wall by the door.

"There you are." He said and I smiled at him. He reached in the room and grabbed my hand. "Remember when you used to get mad at me as a kid and what I would do?" Clay asked and I groaned.

"Aren't we a little old for that now?" I asked and she shook his head as he pulled me to him and we took a dancing stance.

"Who are you calling old?" Clay asked and I smiled as I put my head on his chest and we swayed to the music. Once the song was over I looked up at him.

"I don't like her and I secretly wish the knife would have hit between her eyes." I said and Clay groaned.

"Shaney, can you please try and get along with her. I mean you get along with Pooch, Cougar and Jensen...apparently. Why cant you try with her?" Clay asked.

"I can think of a few reasons." I said and Clay sighed.

"Please....for me?" Clay asked and I groaned. He knew I would do anything for him.

"I will behave...behave only...only if she does." I said and Clay nodded.

"I will talk to her." Clay said and pulled me into a hug. Everything finally felt like it would be safe.
