The Brothers

Surprise!

Anybody's got the power
They don't see it, 'cause they don't understand
Spin around and 'round for hours
You and me, we got the world in our hands

Michela grabbed her bag, yelled out to her twin that she had to go help Nicholas with something, and ran out of the apartment. Michela ran to the Belasco house, out of breath, she unlocked the door and barged in.

"WHAT DID YOU DO YOU IDIOT?!"

Nicholas, Justin, Brandon, and Jesse looked up at her sudden outburst of barging into the house. Nicholas smiled hugely.

"Wow, you were not kidding when you said you will be here soon,"

Jesse smiled.

"Told you she was fast when she was worried,"

Michela's eyes narrowed.

"Soooo...no code Alpha?"

Nicholas shook his head.

"Yes, code alpha...come!"

Nicholas walked away from his brothers (At this point Brandon is family so he will be part now counted in that statement) Michela sighed and followed him after muttering about stupid best friends. Nicholas and Michela entered his room. Nicholas closed his door dramatically. Michela looked at him and started tapping her foot in annoyance. Nicholas smiled.

"I want you to help me plan something for Ash,"

Michela's eyes brightened.

"YES! What?"

Nicholas scratched the back of his head, Michela recognized this action as him being nervous.

"Ummm...well...we have been dating for a long time...I want to propose."

"OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Michela immediately tackled Nicholas in a hug and he laughed as he caught the excited teenager.

"YES YES YES YES YES YES!!!!! OH MY GOD! FINALLY!"

Nicholas laughed. He put her back down when he knew that she was a bit calmer. Nicholas smiled.

"Yeah, I called her parents earlier and they said that they were happy and gave me their blessings,"

Michela punched his shoulder.

"About TIME that you guys get engaged! I mean, Jesus! It took you long enough,"

"HEY! That's not fair,"

They laughed again. Michela smiled.

"So any plan?"

Nicholas smiled shyly.

"No,"

Michela laughed.

"I knew I would be the one to plan everything,"

Nicholas shrugged.

"You know both of us very well, so obviously,"

Michela laughed. Nicholas smiled.

"My parents should be home soon, so we can all talk about this over dinner?"

Michela rolled her eyes.

"Well, I'm sure my mom's not expecting me home any time soon,"

Nicholas chuckled. They linked arms and left the room. When they got to the living room, everyone looked up. Jesse and Brandon smiled.

"I heard a very loud scream,"

"Which means you told her,"

Michela and Nicholas smiled. Michela shoved the two boys.

"You guys should have told me!"

Michela turned to Justin and pointed at him.

"When did you find out?"

Justin raised his arms in defense.

"I found out when I got back from work,"

Michela nodded.

"Good response,"

Everyone laughed. Then they heard the door opening.

"We are home!"

Two adults walked in, both looking like a mix of the three brothers. The lady, Diana, noticed Michela and smiled.

"Michela, it is wonderful to see you again,"

Michela smiled hugely at the lady.

"Nice to see you again Diana,"

The two hugged after the boys greeted them. Diana smiled.

"How have you been darling?"

The man, Argee, chuckled.

"Don't pressure the poor girl,"

Michela smiled and hugged Argee next and he tousled her hair in affection. Diana slapped her husband's arm playfully,

"I am not, it has been a while since we have seen her,"

Michela chuckled.

"It has."

Argee saw the necklace on her and smiled, knowing exactly who gave it to her,

"How have you been?"

Michela smiled brightly at the older man who became a father-figure to her after the many encounters that they have had.

"I have been fine, how have you two been?"

Argee and Diana know about what Kenzee did and they were furious when they found out that someone could do that to someone like Michela. They saw the heartbroken expression on Justin's face when he told them with Nicholas. Diana smiled,

"I have been good, you and Ashley should come by when we are there more often, too many boys,"

Michela burst into laughter at that statement while everyone else rolled their eyes playfully. Argee clasped his hands.

"Let's get started on dinner."
