"Come on guys, let’s just pay the bail and get them out of here," Josh said.

"Nope, I need to hear a reason first," Mary said.

"Me too!" John said indignantly.

Josh sighed and said, "assholes."

"Joshy come here," Tina said leaning on the bars. Josh got close to her and Tina whispered something in his ear.

"What the fuck?" Josh jumped back, "where the fuck is he!?"

"In the hospital," Peter said proudly.

"We get them out of here now," Josh said.

"Wait! I wanna know…" Mary started.

"Shut. The. Fuck. Up and pay the bail!" Josh snapped.

"Whoa," John said in surprise. I was shocked to see the eldest Kennard snap like that, but everyone else seemed as surprised as me.

"Now!" Josh shouted.

Mary and John jumped and scurried out to the deputy. Tina smiled and reached out to touch Josh’s arm. Josh moved forward and pulled Tina into hug, even though one of the cell bars was in between them.

"Joshy," Tina said softly, "um, Bette is not Chris’ girlfriend."

"Tina," I said touching her arm gently.

Josh looked confused as he said, "she’s not?"

"No," Tina said, "she’s my girlfriend."

"What?" Josh said wide-eyed, "you’re gay?"

"Yes," Tina said shifting nervously.

All our eyes were glued to Josh as we waited for his reaction, then he looked at me and pulled me into a hug.

"You make my favorite sister happy," Josh said to me.

"Hey!" Laney whined with a fake pout.

Josh laughed and said, "I love you too Laney."

"And what about me?" Hailey skipped in and moved next to Josh.

"You too punk," Josh said hugging Hailey.

"So you crazy bitches got in a bar fight?" Hailey laughed, "look at you! You look like hell! Tina, that black eye makes you look like a raccoon."

Tina swatted her arm and said, "fuck you!"

"Laney’s the only one who got beat up," Peter laughed.

"It was two against one!" Laney defended.

"Bette’s the one who kicked ASS!" Chris laughed.

"Anything for my girl," I said hugging Tina.

"Whose girl?" Mary said walking in with John in toll.

Everybody looked panicked, but as usual I managed to stay calm, "it’s something we say in LA for a our close friends."

"Yeah," Tina agreed gripping me tighter.

"Alright, let’s go," the deputy said unlocking the cell. We all walked out of the station and to the cars.

"Whew that was close," Chris commented as we followed Josh’s car back to the house.

"Good save baby," Tina said kissing my chin affectionately.

"Porter is always on her toes baby," I responded with a smug grin.

When we arrived at the house we heard loud yelling coming from inside and then a crash.

We all ran into the house and saw Ryan on the floor grabbing his head and Tina’s father was about to throw a second punch. Peter and John stopped him before hand while the rest of us helped Ryan up.

"Let me go!" Tina’s father bellowed, "I don’t want faggots here!"

Everyone seemed surprised as Tina’s mother said, "pack your bags and get out Ryan."

"Oh God so disgusting," Mary commented.

"Man you’re not my brother," John added.

"Hey! Shut up! He’s your blood!" Laney snapped.

"We still love you Rye Rye," Hailey chirped.

"Get out!" Tina’s dad yelled.

I saw Tina’s face contort in anger and I knew what was gonna happen. "Tina," I started but she had already shot up in anger.

"If he leaves I go!" Tina yelled.

Everyone froze solid as Tina’s dad said, "stay out of this Tina."

"No!" Tina cried, "if he goes I go, because I’m gay too!"
