But is this how you Wanted it?

Chapter 7: Jones & the Cole Boys.

Isaac, Cody, and Zany Cole. The Cole boys. Emma Jones. The illegitimate daughter. Children to Isaiah Cole. Rules applied to them unlike the other kids in RealN. As the 4 kids were together in Jose Fuller's house, rules were being broke.

Jose had left the room to get the automatic broom, which is how they swept up stuff by a robot. Really, he went to the kitchen to stuff his face and watch movies on his mobile. Emma had pulled herself back inside, and pushed her brother back in too. She didn't want to be seen. They were all caught by surprise when Jose had snuck them in his house together, but it was for the good of each other.

Emma closed the blinds, locked the door. She looked over to her brothers, Cody was taller than her, and of course, Isaac towered over her. Zany was only in middle school, they were about the same height. With smiles in her eyes, she walked up to Isaac, touching his shoulder, he pulled his little sister into a hug. She opened her eyes meeting Cody's, he grabbed Zany and they joined the hug.

After a long hug while her brothers, Emma broke their hug, chuckling, almost teary eyed, "wow, this is so illegal." They laughed with her. Jose, overhearing from the kicthen, smiled.

"Emma?" Zany said, he didn't know her like she had known the other boys, "you're her. It really is you!" Zany went in for his own hug with his sister. He was awfully childish for being in middle school.

She started laughing, for real, "yes Zany, it's me, my baby brother." He released their quick hug. "I'm sorry it had to be this way for us to first meet." Zoey never let Zany go to the meetings, she didn't want to see him to view his father badly, badly for having Emma. Zany had it worse out of the 3 boys; he was shielded as mommy's boy, he was an angel in Zoey's eyes, he could do no wrong.

"We only have an hour," Cody said, "Mom will be coming home by then, we need to be back by then, Isaac."

"I know, Cody, but we can at least get to know out sister," Isaac's voice seemed to echo as Emma felt like she meant the world to him. He looked at the TV, Jose had left it on, still with The Little Mermaid on screen. Isaac looked at Emma, "you like Disney? You must definitely be my sister."

She smiled, "haha, yes, I must be. Walt Disney is the best that's ever been. Imagine being born in the right century, in the 20 and 21st century." Her eyes were glowing talking about the things she loves.

"Well, I'm more of a book guy-" Zany tried to say.

"More like book nerd!" Isaac jokes, messing around as siblings do. "Not to mention all of those hours you spend gaming."

"Hey, easy now, it's no hate here." Emma said trying to get them to stop before they fight, "I may live as an only child, and know not of how siblings should be with each other, but don't do that until I can hate on you too." She smiled, as did the boys, Jose still eavesdropping from the kitchen.

For the next hour, Jose remained in the kitchen, as Emma and her brothers, talked and laughed, smiled and looked. They spoke of how they liked the way it smelled when it was raining. That snowball fights were the best in winter. How the town pool was the only place to go in summer. The flower blooms in the spring. They shared secrets of each other. They learned so much about each other.

Emma had learned her father had played on the football team like Isaac does, as did their father's father, and so on. Six generations of star varsity football players. It was in the blood for athletics.

"Coach tells me I'm really good, Em. He says to me that the Harvardest Scout was here for Dad's games, and Dad went there. Those scouts will be expecting so much from me," Isaac was so excited thinking about college and football.

She learned Cody was a musican. He could play guitar and he sung like the old singer Shawn Mendes.

"Sometimes I think I was born in the wrong time. I listen to all of his hits and other musicians from that time," talking about his passion brought a glow to Cody's green eyes, "wow were they amazing, compared to some of that trash they have now."

Zany was the gamer type, Emma learned. To keep Zoey's favorite shielded, anytime there was a meeting and Zoey had to leave Zany at home, she would return with a new video game for him everytime. He loved it, as the promise was if he asked no questions to where they went, he would get a new game.

"Oh, Emma! Last time she bought me two games, I'm guessing that was the meeting where you were told to cut all connections at anytime... But now I know why she does this. But how can I pass up new games every other few months, I'm telling you I got Call of Duty: WWV! And Foxhunter, it's not too popular but they're the best!" exclaimed Zany sad at first but grinning by the thought of his video games.

Time had flown by as the siblings got to know each other. They had forgotten to keep track of the time, their hour had past by, if it wasn't for Jose...

"Okay! Here's the broom automatic. Sorry it took me an hour, you guys should really get going, my eavesdropping tells me you should have actually like 15 minutes ago," walking into the living room Jose's voice was projected loudly to make sure they could hear him over their giggles.

Isaac quickly pulled out his phone, "shit! He's right, Em I'm sorry we have to go." He turned to the younger two, "we have to go, now. Tell Emma bye, I don't know the next time we'll be able to see her will be." He turned to Emma, "thank you for staying, little sister, and getting to know us, as we got to know you," he pulled her in for one last hug, "I will see you again, not just in the halls passing by at school, but we will do this again before the year is done." He released their hug so they could finish their goodbyes.

"Maybe, big brother, allow me to leave notes in your locker, as you will do that way with me. Until then, may we meet again," said Emma. Turning to Cody, "and you, Cody the little freshman," she smiled, "you shall do the same." Looking to Isaac and him, "it's locker F-6-2, if you do as asked, you will leave your locker numbers with the first notes you leave."

"Yes, big sister, I will. In your wishes," says Cody, "expect one soon. I'm happy we got to do this." She pulled him in for their last hug. "May we meet again."

"I'm happy too," She turned towards the littlest brother, "my dear Zany, my baby brother, I know it will be a long time before I see you again, especially, if your elder brothers will let you, ask them to put letter from you in my locker as well, may we definitely meet again."

"Sister, they will let me," Zany gave his brother hard stares, the shook their heads YES to letting Zany give notes as well. "I have loved this day; I finally got to meet my sister, which I honestly didn't I know I had," smiling, "may we meet again." They hugged.

Jose interrupted the joy, "okay, that's sweet but I don't want you to get in trouble, any of you," he was stern in his voice. "I will try to plan this again. Thank you for coming Isaac, and Emma, I'm sorry I had to get you here like this, I did it for you."

"No, thank you, it was no problem Jose, as long as we go now," replied Isaac. He turned to Cody and Zany.

"Thank you for this, it's been amazing," said Cody turning to his sister one last time.

"Thank you, Jose," Zany was smiling, he walked over to Jose, surprising him with a little hug to say Thank you even more.

The three brothers looked at their sister, Isaac said, "may we meet again, Em. Expect letter soon."

Opening the door, Emma smiled before hiding behind the door to make sure She wouldn't be seen. Isaac and Cody turned to make sure curious Zany was following as they headed out the door. Last to leave, Zany closed the door.

Emma looked over to her best friend, "oh, Jose Fuller, you fool..." She took a pause, "you're a fool, thank you so much for this, I won't kill you now," she smiled.

"You're welcome, Emma Jones," he told her looking into her eyes. "Now, my parents and Jessica will come back in at least an hour, I would love for you to meet them. You are my other best friend; of course they know David, but I want them to know you too."

Emma grabbed the remote, pressing play on the movie, she sat down, "then we may as well just finish our movie. You make the popcorn this time."

"As you wish," Jose went to make the popcorn, smiling, he thought to himself: wow, she's amazing.
