"Jessy you look lovely and you leg is much better. Boys, sleep okay? Chele they picked you up to, that's nice." Mom said. "I'm just so excited about Jessie's Recital. I was driving everyone at home crazy." Chele said kissing Mom on the cheek and winking at Taylor. "Hey baby, you got Mommy this morning and you're all smiles. Nothing like a mommy huh?" Jessy played with Zoe. "Where is Daddy?" Jessy asked. "He's in his office working on something." Mom said. Jessy poured him another cup of coffee, "I'm going to say hi." Jessy said heading to the office, slowly with the cup of coffee. Jessy knocked on the door, "Come on in." Daddy said. "Morning Daddy." Jessy said bringing him his coffee. "Still real sore I see. Did you fool mother? Thanks for the coffee I need it." Dad asked. "Yeah it is. I hope she bought it. I can face her Daddy, I just can't let Jessie know." Jessy said. "Sit and give me that leg." Daddy said sipping his coffee and massaging her leg. "You're getting better. The knot is probably a fourth the size it was. Somebody took good care of you last night." Daddy said. "Thanks for letting him stay. It couldn't have been easy. But he's so good for me." Jessy said. "No sweetie, it's you who's good for him." Daddy said. "Mother was so pleased when she saw you wearing her mother's ring." he told her. "I bawled when Zac asked me to wear it, he explained what it meant to him. We're going steady." Jessy smiled. "That's the first step of many you two will be taking." Daddy said and they smiled at eadh other. "What is it you're doing here." Jessy asked. "Reconciling inventory, or trying to." he answered. "What dates, do you a begin total, sales and adjustments, all within this program?" Jessy asked. "Yeah I think so." Daddy answered. "Well, then don't do things the hard way." Jessy said picking up the keyboard and placing it in her lap. A few glances at the screen and a lot of fingers flying, Jessy instructed the program to collate the date and calculate. Jessy looked at the screen, "Is your printer on Daddy? and what port is it on?" Jessy asked."Port 1 and yes it's on." he answered and Jessy had it printing. Jessy typed a little more and requested a reconciliation report and printed it. "I think you're done." Jessy told him. He stopped and picked up the papers from the printer. "How, no don't try to tell me, I wouldn't understand, Mirale Hands. That's what you got. How much you want you're worth it. I've put this off and now I was humping to get it done for Jessie's Recital." Daddy said. "You're the one with the mircle hands and we're even. I'll let you get back to that. Next time ask you hear me." Jessy said kissing him on the cheek and heading out the door. Mackie was waiting patiently with a book and the snuggled in the rocking chair so Jessy coud exercise her leg. They sat for almost an hour, laughing and giggling before Mackie ran to the kitchen. "Mommy me read to you." Mackie said. Mom sat down, pulled him onto her lap. Mackie started and read along. Every now and then she'd ask him a word and he knew it. Jessy caught sight of Zoe headed up the stairs. She headed her way staying back far enough to catch but not close enough to stop her from learning. Zoe made it to the top, very proud of herself and toddled to her room. She made a beeline for her blanket and turned to head down the stairs when she spied Jessy. Jessy jumped back and Zoe giggled. Jessy dashed to the boys' open door and stepped inside peeking down the hall. Zoe ran into the hall expecting Jessy. Such a sad face, so Jessy leaned out the door until Zoe spied her, running in her direction. Jessy hid behind the door. Zoe entered, see Zac, Taylor, Ike but still looking. She turned and was on her way out when Zac pointed, where Jessy was hiding. Zoe looked, then looked at Zac again. Zac moved to the door and pointed and Zoe toddled and squealed with delight at finding Jessy. "You had help. Didn't you?" Jessy asked and Zoe ratted out Zac. They both tickled him and Jessy pushed him down on his bed and tossed Zoe on. Zac and Zoe played for a good half hour. Jessy visited with Ike, "You really going to like Jen. She's the life of the party." Jessy said. "You know Jessy, I think I probably will, I figure if you and that sister of yours, really like her, she's got to be a winner." Ike said. "Poor Jen, she doesn't stand a chance with you, you charmer." Jessy said. Jessy was thinking about Jen and Ike, "Charm the pants right off her. Oops, I think I said that outloud." Jessy turned red. "You and your sister. Did I ever tell you what she said on our first date. About Ash. She was quiet after he dissed her, and all of a sudden she's say change the H for a S. Oops I said that out loud, I was thinking it not going to saying it. I have got to get this switch fixed. This is still outloud. I'm shutting up." Taylor said taking the pressure off of Jessy's comment about Ike. Jessy retrieved Zoe and went to her room changed her diaper and sat and rocked her to sleep, singing "More Than Anything". She heard what she hoped was Zac singing and turned and caught his eye. She rocked slower and Zac came nearer. Jessy stood up and motioned the chair to Zac and he pulled her to his lap. He kissed Zoe's head then found Jessy's lips. Jessy leaned her head on his shoulder, holding Zoe. "Someday." Zac said and Jessy smiled from ear to ear. "I sure hope so." she said. Jessy got up and moved to her crib waiting for Zac to put the railing down. Jessy place Zoe in her bed and Zac raised the side and took Jessy in his arms. "I want lots of kids." Zac said. "Me too the more the merrier." Jessy said kissing Zac desperately, her tongue searching his, she moaned as Zac's tongue came out of hiding and overpowered hers as his hands pulled her into him tight and he began to slowly rub against her. He drew his tongue back and whispered "Someday." Jessy eyes opened to find Zac staring at her, "Promise me, someday." Jessy asked. "You bet your life on it." Zac said and they left arm in arm. "I have to find Jessie." Jessy said kissing him and heading off in the other direction. Avie was the only one in the room, Jessie had gotten dressed and headed downstairs. Avie shared her stories as Jessy's opinion of which she should enter. Jessy moved the papers into a different order, "I think this makes a very nice story." Jessy said point 1, 2, 3 at the pages in the order she had arranged them. "Read them through and think about it." Jessy said kissing her on the forehead and heading to use their bathroom. When she came out, Avie was jumping up and down. "Jessy you're right. It is my story." Avie screamed. "It a very nice beginning, I think it's a great rough draft and you should enter it. Then a little more detail and I think you have yourself a winner." Jessy said smiling. Avie raced out of he room, screaming "Mommy, Mommy." The guys followed to see what was up. Zac wait for slowpoke Jessy. "You are walking better. Don't get so frustrated. It's better than crying and being carried. Less than twenty four hours ago, remember." Zac said. "I love you, you always know what I need to hear." Jessy wrapped her arms around him, holding him tight and kissing him. Zac held her and walked down the first flight of stairs and put her down on the landing. On the last flight of steps Ike and Tay stopped and sat listening to Avie's story. Zac and Jessy joined them. When Avie finished everyone applauded the guys headed her way with hugs and words of encouragment. "Avie I bet if you asked Chele she'd help you type your story and print it so you can make final corrections to your rough draft." Jessy said. "Could you Chele? Please I type so slow." Avie pleaded. "Sure kiddo." Chele answered and Avie squealed. "Use Daddy's computer, I made and Avie file, put in the Story folder for now." Jessy said. As the commotion died down, Jessie rushed to the stairs, "Jessy I'm so glad you're better and can come." Jessie said. "BB I wouldn't miss this. I would have had Zac carry me in if I hadn't got better. Love your costume be we need to do something about your hair." Jessy said sitting Jessie down in her lap. She took the banana clip from her own hair, combed Jessie's hair with it until it was up off of her neck. She gave it a twist and carefully placed her banana clip into Jessie's hair. "That's my best clip. I've never danced out of it. That I'll loan you and this Ill give you. I'm handing this on. When I started dancing an older dancer took an interest in me and one day she had faced her destiny, she would be a dancer not a great dancer. She gave me her necklace." Jessy said pulling it from her dress pocket and held it up. "Supposedly when you dance with your heart the little diamond chip knows and glimmers as you dance. Jessie I want you to take this and make it glimmer the way I used to. All I ask is when you stop dancing, you find the next dancer who dances with her heart, and it's really special if you help her learn how to dance from her heart." Jessy said tears streaming down her face as she placed the ballerina chocer around Jessie's neck and adjusted the clasp, saying, "Make her glimmer." "Momma look. Look Daddy." Jessie raced off. "Jessy is that true. What you told Jessie." Zac asked. "Zac Hanson what are you suggesting. That I started a tradition. Yes I did. The facts are true an older ballerina gave it to me, she'd given up dancing, and the first time I wore everyon swore the stone glimmered, I even have a picture of it, and I just passed it on to a ballerina who now dances from her heart. The rest made it interesting to give it to her." Jessy answered as Avie came out to share her first published works. Chele had added some artwork and a cover. "Thanks Sis. You better get Tay to run you back home to change and get the car." Jessy said. Tay and Chele left and Tay was back about twenty minutes later. They had a light lunch. Everyone dressed for the recital. Jessie walked through her routine over and over. "Come here." Jessy called to her and she joined her on the couch. "That's enough, you know it frontwards and backwards. You need to focus on loving what you're doing. They aren't looking for a machine that perform every movement perfectly. They're looking for a ballerina, a living thing that feels. And that's what you are, a ballerina that feels passion for her dance and it shows, just relax and let it come out. Don't think of anything but making her glimmer." Jessy said placing Jessie's hand on the necklace. They loaded up and made their was to the auditorium. Chele was already there nervous and pacing. Jessie headed backstage and Mom went with her, Daddy took the family in found the relatives and took the front middle two rows. The recital began and they sat patiently through all the other dancers. Jessie was last. "What a terrible position to dance in." Jessy complained. Finally Jessie was introduced as she took center stage and smiled at the family, Jessy rose and put her hand to her passed on necklace and they smiled at each other. Jessy sat back down as someone mumbled down in front. Chele turned and sneered then took Jessy's hand. Jessie struck her beginning stance, "She's nailed it." Jessy said looking at the extension of her hand and foot. Jessie danced brilliantly and at one point Zac grabbed Jessy's arm. "Do you see what I see. It's shining." "I don't believe it. Ike get a close up of her neckace." Jessy yelled and Ike clicked away. Jessie brought the house down, four standing ovations before she was unanimously named the winner of the contest. "Jessy it's 2;15 we have to go. Mom, Daddy we have to go Jen will be here soon, where you going to celebrate we'll meet you." Chele said and plans were made meet up. They said goodbye to the guys. When they made it to the back of the auditorium "Jessie rocked the house, whoop, whoop, whoop" they screamed in foyer knowing it would echo and be heard. They raced, one raced, one hobbled to the car and drove to the depot. The clock read 2;25 and the checked the board for informaton on Jen's bus. The girls went outside and paced. The bus pulled in and Jessy and Chele we jumping up and down looking in windows trying to catch sight of Jen. Jessy moved to the front of the bus. "AHHHHHH" She screamed and from inside the bus the scream was returned. Chele grabbed her as she got off the bus, and they screamed and danced and then they made they way to Jessy and the screamed and danced. Four guys she had traveled with made their way over and asked to take them to dinner. The girls screamed and ran. "Jesus Jen you can't do that no more." Jessy yelled putting her left hand in Jen's face and the Chele put her hand in face and the three screamed again. Jen danced around Jessy exclaiming how she had grown. "Why didn't you? You gotta grow up someday." Jessy screamed. They got in the car, and toned it down. "Did you bring a dress?" Chele asked. "On vacation with you a dress, get serious." Jen laughed. "Chele stop. Pull in, we'll buy one there the dress shop." Jessy yelled and Chele pulled in and the three made it in the store. "Jesus Jen you're meeting his family all of it I think there's got to be 20 or 30 of them. Not so wild, don't embarass Ike." Jessy pleaded. Jen compromised with a sexy sundress and the girls agreed. Jessy paid and Chele pulled out her sandals and adjusted the straps, doable. The girls headed to the restaurant, inside they were asking the hostess for the Hanson Party as Jessie screamed "Jessy!" The girls made their way to Jessie and she collapsed in Jessy's arms crying, Chele and Jen immediately hugged her. "Just let it out. I used to do this everytime I danced my best, I still do when I really feel it." Jessy told her rocking her softly. "Geez Jessie you're as big as Jen already. Jen I'm telling you stop hanging on to your youth and grow up." Jessy teased. Jessie stopped crying intrigued by the comment about Jen. Jessie turned and Jessy introduced them and the clicked, Jen hugging Jessie and had her laughing in no time. "I'm lame you keep up with her, before she does something we regret." Jessy told Chele as Zoe came her way with Zac right behind her. "Run baby don't let the big bad boy get you." Jessy rushed to her and swept her up in her arms. "Jessy wants the big bad boy." she said as Zac wrapped his arms around her and kissed her to Zoe's delight. "Bad boy kisses are the best." Jessy whispered and kissed her neck, again and agin and then he started sucking her neck . "Zac Hanson the whole room is watching us." Jessy complained. "Let them. I love Jessy." he said loudly. "Zachary Walker Hanson, I'm holding your little sister, please." Jessy whispered. "Okay but later tonight I'm making dots and then I'm going to connect them." Zac whispered. "Bad Boy Bad Boy whatcha gonna do." Jessy whispered to him. "Tame him down girl, You got yourself a wild one. Him I'm gonna like." Jen said. "Zac honey this is Jen. Watch out, she's a wild one too." Jessy said. "Oh ho tread marks. Got her." Jen giggled pulling Jessy's hair back, "Fast lips. Gotta keep an eye on him girl." Jen warned. "Zac your Dad's trying to get your attention I think." Jessy said. Zac headed his way and turned back and grabbed Jessy's hand "Come on, you get to suffer too." Zac said. "Cover the evidence girl." Jen said pulling Jessy's hair forward. "Be right back or come with me and suffer too." Jessy said. "No way, I think I'll check this joint out." Jen said . "Oh god now we're in trouble. On the ride down she had four guys hit on us at the depot. Please come back Jen." Jessy pleaded searching for Chele. "Hey Daddy." Jessy said and they kissed each other on the cheek and he introduced Jessy to his brother, and whole mess of other people. Zac abandoned her and disappeared in the same direction Jen had gone.Jessy was thrilled her introduction changed from the babysitter who dates Zac to Zac's girlfriend, newest part of the family. Jessy noticed Isaac head out in the direction of Jen and Zac. "Daddy I need the diaper bag do you know where it is?" Jessy asked. "No sweetie. Mother where's the diaper bag?" Daddy asked. "I think it's in the van." Mom answered. "Daddy is it locked? I'll need the keys." Jessy asked and he fished the keys from his pocket. Jessy excused herself and headed to the van. She found Zac playing arcade games. "Ditch me, leave me to suffer alone. You owe me, big, for this." Jessy told him. "I'm going to the van a change Zoe. Hey did you find Jen?" Jessy asked. "Yeah she went with Ike for a walk. They really hit it off he was all over her and she couldn't keep her hands of him." Zac said. "Cool" Jessy said and headed to the parking lot thinking how nice it would be if Ike and Jen really connected. She looked around thinking she would see them walking hand in hand somewhere. She heard a voice and looked around, no one strange she thought when she heard it again. Jessy stopped and listened, looking around no one in sight. "Oh I want you now." "I know you do, you're ready." "Make me scream. Oh you're hung. I want it all." Jessy couldn't take anymore, she turned and ran back towards the restaurant. By the time she reached the restaurant she was running. Zoe was really wet but there was no way Jessy was going back. At the door a young couple wit a baby Zoe's age were leaving. "Please I feel so bad, I left her diaper bag at home and she's wet. Please can I buy a diaper off you. Zac honey give them a couple of dollars." Jessy asked. "Oh honey don't feel bad it happens to all of us at one time or another. Here change her and someday do the same for someone else." she said handing Jessy a diaper. "Jessy what's wrong wasn't the diaper bag in the van?" Zac asked. "Jessy you're white as a ghost, and you're shaking what's wrong." Zac asked holding her. "Honey hold Zoe so I can change her." Zac took her and laid her on the game he was playing and Jessy quickly changed her. "I'm sorry baby." Jessy hugged her and took the diaper to the trash can outside. Zac followed her. "Are you going to tell me what's wrong." he asked. "Who's to say what's wrong, I can tell you of Hanson in the past 12 hours, you are the only one who didn't get some. "First Tay and Chele, now Ike and Jen, the van is probably rocking right now." Jessy said. "Jessy are you okay with it. Honey it was bound to happen sooner or later. This is sooner." Zac said trying not to laugh. "It' not funny, she's been in town less than an hour and barely had time to say anything to him, known him half hour and I'm being generous. And she's having sex with him. Sex, they certainly are'nt making love like Tay and Chele. They probably didn't even have time to swap spit." Jessy complained. "Jessy they swapped, I told you they were all over each other. I figured they wen't somewhere to make out." Zac said. "Oh Jessy. Forget about it. Let's go back in they shoud be having cake. I promise I'll stay by you this time." Zac said taking Jessy's hand and led her back to the family. "I was getting worried, but I see who took all your time now." Daddy said. "Zac in my pocket are Daddy's keys, can you get them." Jessy asked. Zac enjoyed his mission and returned the keys to his Dad but left his hands in her pockets. "Zac what did you do to her, she's white as a ghost." Chele asked. "Zac didn't do anything, we happen to be virgins and he's the only member of Hanson that can say that now. Ike and Jen are out in the van testing the shocks." Jessy said. "And you said I was white." she added. "Oh no Jessie wants me. I have to go. Is that better?" Jessy pinched her cheeks and headed to Jessie. She noticed the three left the room. Jessie introduced her to her teacher and classmates. Soon Mom had her making the rounds. "Mom this is an event when you guys get together." Jessy said as Zac walked up behind her. "Mom we're headed to dinner see you at home. We'll be at Jessy's if you need us." Zac said. Jessy headed to Jessie and told her one more time how proud she was and that they were leaving. Zac talked with all her classmates before hugging his sister goodnight. "Stop dragging your feet, you're coming, Tay and Chele are waiting." Zac told her. "You can make me go, but I don't have to like it." Jessy said and she did her best to prove her point. At home she busied herself in the kitchen. Ash and Becky showed up, Jessy gave them the short tour of the house at the stairs she described the upstairs. "Ash now take her up she can put her suit in my room, left, and you can have your pick of the rooms. to the right. Holler out if you get lost." Jessy laughed. " I couldn't find you so I gave Ash and Becky a verbal tour of the upstairs, they're up there now." Jessy said to Chele immediately walking away. In the kitchen she ran into Ike and busied herself checking the garlic bread, "Ouch" Jessy hollered and headed to the sink. "Let me see." Ike said. "I can take care of it myself." Jessy said putting it under the cold water. "Jessy talk to me. Look at me? Please for Zac's sake talk to me." Ike asked. "Don't put Zac between us. For Zac's sake, Zac didn't do this. Why does everyone want to blame Zac. First Chele now you. Leave him out of it." Jessy said. "Can't this is hurting him, and you're right he didn't do this but he's stuck in the middle, he loves us both and if you won't talk to me it won't ever get better and Zac's stuck in the middle." Ike said. "Jessy you put him there not me. You did when you told him. You could have kept it between us. You could have yelled what you were thing hey horny, or animals, sexual perverts. But we never knew anyone knew until Zac's in the middle." Ike said. Jessy walked to the french doors leading to the patio and saw Zac siting alone at the far end of the pool. "He's out there miserable and you're in here miserable. Why, because I had sex with someone I hardl knew. Well sorry I'm human. I've had a hard time watching both of my brothers fall in love with two of the greatest girls of all time. I guess Jen paid the price." Ike said. "You know I'd give anything to have what you and Zac have." Ike said and he turned to walk away. "Don't go I need your help." Jessy cried. "What do you need?" Ike asked. "I need to change into my suit but I still can't manage the stairs, would you carry me up, please?" Jessy asked. "Of course sis." Ike said picking her up and heading up the stairs. "That one is mine." Jessy said and Ike carried her in the room. "On the bed, cause I need you to pull off the socks they're hard to do." Jessy said and Ike took off her shoes and stockings. "Wait her I'll go in the bathroom and change. Ike you did use protection, right?" Jessy asked. "Yes Jessy, I'm not that desperate." Ike answered. "Do you like Jen at all, or is she just a skirt?" she asked. "She is a wild one. She makes me laugh. Yeah I like her, but you're right it would have been better if we'd waited and gotten to known each other. Sex ain't all it's made out to be, I'd rather make love with some I care about and for" Ike said. "That's my brother." Jessy said and limped out in the sexiest string bikini. "So do you think Zac will like it?" Jessy asked. "I can't, she is your sister, she is your sister." Ike chanted. "Oh another Daddy 101 on Women speech." Jessy laughed and Ike picked her up and carried her to the pool and jumped in Jessy scream. "You die for that, Water Chicken. Come on Zac. Zac. That's Jessy and I love all of her. That's Jessy and I love" Jessy teased as Zac came over and Jessy climbed up on his shoulders. "What did you do lose her already, we ain't finding you another one. Jen." Jessy screamed. Jen appeared hopped on Ikes shoulders and the war was on. Ash and Becky fought Tay and Chele. The winners to battle off. Jessy and Zac won 2 out of 3 and so did Chele and Tay. The sisters battled to the death. "Oh my god they're at it again."Jessy said and Tay and Chele turned to look and Jessy and Zac pushed. Next match Zac pants Ike and he fell over laughing. "Way to win Zac." Jessy bent over and kissed him. "I'm hungry are you done burning everything Tay." The eight had dinner. Jessy was ordered to wear a towel so the guys could eat in peace and stop chanting "It's Jessy and we love all of her." "Geez, make me feel bad." Jessy pouted went to the kitchen and came back wearing a paper bag over her body. "You ask me to get one for my face I'm kicking you out and find friends that love me." Jessy teased. After dinner the dance, mostly slow danced. Jessy and Zac went back into the water. Zac had a mission making dots so he could play connect the dots. "Zac Hanson please stop, I'm not wearing turntlenecks in the summer. I'll take off my top if you stop." Jessy offered. "Promise no more hickeys." Zac said and Jessy untied the string at her neck and Zac untied the string in back. "Tuck it in your suit or mine, don't loose it." Jessy said. "It looks as if its topless night at the pool." Jessy looked to see Becky's and Chele's tops on the side but not Jen's. Or so the though, their suits came floating. Zac gathered them up and put them with Jessy's top. They giggled as the two kept diving for the, white moons on the surface, as they dove. The phone rang, Jessy pulled her hair forward covering her breasts and ran for the phone. "Hey. Daddy, we're in the pool still I had to get out to answer. I'll send them home. Okay bye. Party's over Daddy says you have to head home. You have a half hour to get there. " Jessy said handing out towels even to Ike and Jen. "You can leave your suits here. You're all invited back tomorrow for left overs. Becky if you want you're more than welcome to stay. Girls night as soon as the guys leave. I have Chippendales. Zac that's antique furniture." Jessy teased and Zac gabbed her towel. "Fine I'm not ashamed of my body I think I'll go skinny dipping. Come one girls. The guys can see themselves out. Bye Zac see you tomorrow." "Bye Tay." "Bye Ash." "Bye Ike" the girls said throwing the bottoms at their feet. The guys left moaning, not fair. The girls had a blast skinny dipping, watching the chippendales. The phone rang, "Yes Zac, Oh Hi Tay, just a minute."Jessy said handing the phone to Chele. "Hey hun. Okay see ya for breakfast then. Bye." Chele said "They'll be here to take us to breakfast at 9am. Rewind that I missed part." Chele complained and they rewound the whole tape and watched it again. The girls fell asleep watching the movie.
