The World Remastered

*Stella squealed as she was thrown before she followed Tak's finger* Ooooh that's what hes got to do. Thas wha bubby does! *She had been to a few competitions before and knew it was supposed to be him. She pointed down at Binx and pointed* Look bub!

*Nate chuckled at Zane, grinning at him* You should be scared of her but I've been her back up a long time *He warned before glancing over at Keely* Calling me royalty now huh Indy? Want some of my salad dressing? *He did exactly what she told him not too as she walked away. He let out a long breath, biting his cheek some. He looked back at Zane before sitting next to him* Must like him if you are willing to risk it at her threat. *He smirked at Zane* Must be serious so I'll trust ya for now *He chuckled, taking the water before looking up where Tak pointed* Thanks Binx and you are doing a great job keeping us in line *He teased, watching as T3 set up*

Gotcha man. *He said to Tyler.* I see them. Yup that's what bubby does. *The boy tried not to feel sad about not running. One thing that Mama Juju said that if he focused on healing and getting better he would be in shape to play basketball at school again. Which was just another reason for him to be a good kid and not try to do more that he had too. Having two functioning parental units take over Stella and his care....while still weird to get used to, they made it look easy. He watched Tak with Stella explaining everything and felt his heart melt. Scooting a little closer he leaned the big man's shoulder without a word.*

*Zane watched Nate's reaction to Keely as she went away.* He is well with the risk. *As Nate sat down, Zane gave him a confused look.* I get why Tyler kept it to himself, but why do you two? *Motioning to Keely, who had begun to stretch while she waited her turn to go.* Are you trying to make edging an Olympic sport? a really weird and twisted form of edging though.

*Tak sat down next to Binx, only just staying on the bench as he explained things* Yeah that is what bubby does when he feels all better. *He gave a handsome smile to Binx as he leaned against him. He settled the baby onto his lap before wrapping his free arm around the boy, careful not to jar him or press on him* When he's all better he will pick it back up or you are going to have to take it on. The horn sounded and T3 took off, moving as quickly as he could through the course. When he heard the word edging he didn't glance over just said* Baby is right here, language *In a stern voice, letting the other two know that they needed to watch it. Cursing was one thing but he didn't want to be asked what they were talking about.

I do it! *Stella watched as T3 started his run, eyes wide. She clapped excitedly as he launched over a wall. She reached out and pulled on Binx's shirt a little, just showing him she was excited*

*Nate looked back over at Keely when Zane motioned to her then got a soft smile on his face before he cracked his water. He took a long drink before answering* She teases but she sees me like a brother. She sees all of us as brothers. *He sighed, looking back toward T3's race as it started* I'm her back up. *He smirked and shook his head* Enforcers don't end up with the boss and she doesn't even let me be an enforcer *He chuckled at Tak's warning* PG promise PG *He thought to yell to spurr T3 on but as he opened his mouth to do so he thought about who was sitting next to him* Better wait until hes done before I tell him I know *He chuckled, taking another drink as he watched his brother*

*Binx Joined Stella in cheering and her excitement just made him all the happier to be on the cheer squad.* You got this, T3! *He let out another whoop. ignoring the conversation Tak warned about.*

Apologies Tak. *Zane said before taking a long pause to take in what Nate said. The guy thought this was a one sided crush and boy was he mistaken.* T3 is right about you two. *He chuckled with a shake of his head. He wasn't going to push the topic more. Those two could figure that out themselves.* Probably for the best, he'll blush so back he'd go nuclear.

Thank you boys *Tak said quietly before he joined in on the cheering for T3*

She has slept in my bed without worrying I'll make a move because she trusts me so much *Nate looked at him with a "yeah really" expression* I would assume she thought I was *He grinned at Zane* On your side if she didn't know I had been with another woman. *He shook his head, clapping as his brother got closed to finishing. He chuckled, nodding at Zane's comment* Oh 100 percent. THink I should act pissed off when he comes back?

I may have just met you but from what T3 has said, you'd never be the type to. Keely would have to come with a I consent on a sign in big red letter before you would. *Zane said using some guilty information from his boyfriend and things he heard Keely say.* Don't let her know the woman's name of social. *He muttered before clapping for T3 again.* Go for it, may save me from him being upset with me of letting the cat out of the bag.

No girl that doesn't completely believe the boy is a brother is going to do that, no matter how straight laced he is. *Nate said with absolute confidence* We play, yell, tease, say the stupidest, meanest shit we can to each other and she has total confidence that am the most straight laced older protective brother of all time* She's even given me recommendations on *He stopped himself before he said the word porn, looking up toward Tak* entertainment of the adult kind *He mumbled then raised an eyebrow at himself* You are easy to talk to, don't like that *He told Zane before clapping as the course ended with T3 on the top of the ramp. At Zane's comment he rolled his eyes and snickered* We all know, we've known since he was like six, no one cares. Only reason Mom is going to be upset is because he hasn't actually said anything about it and is dating someone she hasn't met and that will last all of five minutes. *He snickered as his brother stiffened, obviously having spotted him* Oh showtime.

*T3 waved to the people cheering glancing over at his crew with a grin. He had done pretty well, there were still two more runners to go through the course but he thought he would make the top three. He waved and then narrowed his eyes as the other person the bench. He froze for a second when he realized who it was. The teen jumped down from the ramp and was on his way over faster than he had run through the course*

*Zane just chuckled.* I get that a lot actually and been told I'm a great listen. SO when I tell you, I may bat for the opposite team, but even I know that no girl gives someone she thinks of as her brother p-adult entertainment recommendations, thinks of them as her brother! *Zane* I am glad it won't be a terrible shock and he will have the support of his family. *Nate could probably read between the lines on it. Zane saw the moment when T3 caught sight of them.* We've been spotted, or you have and i do believe his feet are on fire.

*Tak let out a loud wolf whistle as the race ended, making poor Stella cover her ears. She turned the meanest little glare on the wolf but he just chuckled* Sorry short stuff, didn't mean to kill your ears *He nuzzled the little girl who just huffed and moved over to Binx's lap instead, thoroughly offended. He snickered at the little monster as she traded him out for her Bub. He looked up just in time to see T3 pass* Nice Job Kid!

*Stella looked up at her brother as she got settled, just moving in to his lap whether he wanted her or not* Tha was loud! *She complained, giving him a scrunchy face*

*Nate rolled his eyes at Zane* You don't have brothers do you? I now know why Tyler never had any comments *He grinned before standing up. As T3 got closer he made a big show of frowning and crossing his arms over his chest*

*T3 completely ignored everything else as he made his way over to the two of them* Nate *He panted out before having to double over to catch his breath, hands on his knees* What...are...you doin' here? *He gasped out in between panting*

What do you think? *Nate's voice was deep but Zane could see the corners of his lips twitch with the need to smile*

Look I can, explain. *T3 started to step between Zane and Nate, face starting to loose color* This is *Nate dramatically raised his hand to stop his brother*

When are the puppies due? *It was a familiar phrase said by the teams signature mobster while Binx had been in the hospital. Nate grinned as a what the fuck look came over T3's face and then the larger man started laughing openly as T3 turned four shades of red. He laughed and wrapped his brother up head lock, nooging him* Why you hiding the man plundering your down under huh? Afraid we'd want to know where the money for this hottie came from? No way you bagged one this hot on your own!

* Binx chuckled as his little sister crawled back into his lap. He pulled her close and said.* Yea it was really loud. I'll help cover your ears next time Dad gets loud. * He said without thinking about calling Tak Dad. Binx's attention was on Nate and T3 and was fighting the urge not to laugh as he watched the display. Binx was good until 'plundering down under." and he broke with a muffled laugh.*

*Zane put on the best face to play along with Nate, all in good fun. He also had to give in with Nate as he couldnt contain the smile anymore and was at a lose for words with all the comments that Nate was saying as he too had a tinge of red. Keely got her mouth from this dude or they just compared notes.*

*Stella was still giving the grumpy face. She nodded when he said he would help before looking over at what he did. She wiggled out and grabbed a bottle of water before going toward the boys. When T3 was head locked she let out a gasp* NO FIGHTIN! *The busybody yelled before wagging her finger at them* You stop!

*T3 let out a very undignified sound as he was caught in the head lock, punching his brother gently in the side to get him to let go* I fucking hate you asshole! *He was completely red as Nate let go. He took another step away, bumping into Zane's legs* I didn't pay him off and there aren't any puppies! *He groaned as the little girl beside them yelled puppies before he just collapsed onto the bench, head in his hands and shoulder against Zane's*

*Nate laughed as he continued to fuss with T3's hair a few moments longer. When the little girl yelled at him he laughed and let go, raising his hands up in surrender* Sorry, sorry. *He pointed at his brother* He started it! *He offered then started cracking up as she repeated T3's last word, he laughed so hard his sides hurt*

* Binx let Stella slip off his lap and go to the boys. As Tak ruffled his hair he gave him a smile. This was a moment he knew was unspoken but this was what a father son relationship was meant to be. He saw that Keely's run was getting close to come up.* 5 bucks says she bribed the dj to switch the over head music to kpop when she runs. *he said mainly to Tak.*

Can confirm, no money changed hands, and no puppies. * Zane chuckled as T3 buried his face in his shoulder. He let the little girl fuss and T3 hide.* I really should have pushed the topic of introducing myself it would seem.

*Tak smirked at the Teen* If she didn't Juju did *He offered in a low voice, hand dropping away from Binx's head. He chuckled at the kids before snapping Stella back up in his arms* No puppies princess, we don't even have room for all the roos you keep ordering. *He snickered and kissed her forehead before pointing out where Indie was about to start* Indy is up next everyone *He announced, catching everyone's attention*

*Stella was still wagging her finger at Nate as she shoved a water bottle over Zane's lap and into T3's* No he didn' *She offered but then she heard the word puppies. She lit up like the fourth of july* PUPPIES! *She grinned, bouncing on the bench before she got picked up by Tak* But iwan puppies!
