Addy sighed as she heard the two come outside. She hated that she needed a bodyguard. It made her uncomfortable to think that people would want to hurt her. She stood, Sir jumping up after her, giving her a doggy smile.

She gave the bodyguard a tight smile, and bit her lip.

"It's just my brothers," she muttered, slipping past him into the house, holding the door open for Sir. She ran up the stairs, and down the hall to her brothers rooms.

"Yall better not be naked!" She yelled kicking the door open. Thankfully, they were both dressed, and yawning in their beds.

"What the hell was that?" She asked, honestly curious.

The boys shrugged, and she gave them a skeptical look.

"I mean it you two."

The man sighed and shook his head, following Addison inside, bur keeping to the down stairs. Why again did he agree to do this? Oh right, money. Remember the money Kai.

Ghost huffed again at the sudden change in scenery and Kai petted the dogs head. "I Know bubs." He dog nosed Kai's pantleg and snuffled a bit. He peered up the stairs and frowned harder than usual. Those boys were trouble.

Addy finally coaxed her brothers to show her what they'd broken. It turned out to be an ugly orange vase, and she agreed to help them get rid of it. Together they picked up the pieces, and put them in a plastic bag. Then all three of them crept down the stairs, dumping them into an urn in the garden.

Sir had been following the whole time, as well as the boys' Siberian huskies, Juno and Shawn. They all snickered at the mischief they'd already gotten into, and sprawled on the lawn, not caring that the damp grass was soaking through their clothes.

Kai raised an eyebrow as the boys and Addy passed by him into the yard. He sighed and followed them all out. Why couldn't he just be at home? Why did he have to watch this girl 24/7? His old bones couldn't handle all this moving around.

He came out and stayed on the porch, rolling his eyes at the kids rolling around in the grass and Ghost let out a whine. "Not you too" Kai murmured but sighed, casting a look around the area before leaning down and unclipping Ghosts leash from his collar, and taking off his vest. "Alright, go on, go play" Ghost licked Kais fingers before trotting out to the yard and lethering the boys faces with kisses

Addy sat up, and watched as Beau shrieked, pushing the dog off of him. She sighed, and flopped back on the grass. She had no idea why her parents had allowed a bodyguard to bring a dog that was trained for the military to come to their house. Neither the man or his dog seemed comfortable there.

She turned to Sir, and patted his head, kicking Briggs.

"Come on, let's go get breakfast."

Ghost romped happily around the boys, seemingly shrinking so he wasn't so scary looking. He whined after Addy and followed her a few steps before looking toward Kai.

Kai shrugged at the dog and called him back clipping the leash back to his collar and bending to but the vest on before coming into the house before Addy pulling away to stand in the hall not about to interrupt the family breakfast.

(Kai is definitely not comfortable there, but for other reasons lol)

The three Sinclair kids spilled into the dining room, greeting their parents, and plopping into chairs while they perused the breakfast that was spread out before them.

Addy grinned when she saw the mango and other fruits, piling her plate high with them. Her brothers were going down the path of eggs and bacon, and about ten pieces of toast. They chattered with their parents, and their mother smiled.

"I thought you three might like to go to the beach today."

They all erupted into cheers. Going to the beach was the best! They had a couple things to do first, so they quickly finished their breakfasts, and went to do their few chores.

Kai sighed and walked into the kitchen after the kids had left, touching Mr. Sinclair on the shoulder. "Do you require me to be at the beach as well? Ghost doesn't prefer the water, and its a very open place, the statistics of an attack are low" He waited for the man's answer and gave a light pull on Ghosts leash to remind him not to go after the food left on the table.

Drew gave the man a sad smile.

"I'm afraid I'd like it if you could go. None of them are legal adults yet, and I want them to be safe."

Addy came running back in, already wearing her swimsuit. It was her favorite one, a light lavender wrap bikini.

"Are we ready to go?" She asked excitedly.

Kai sighed and nodded moving away to stand by the door. He was greatful he had wore a t shirt today. But he didn't know what he was going to do about the jeans, or his gun holsters though.

Ghost whined and licked his hand reminding him of something. "Oh, Sir?" He turned back to Mr. Sinclair. "Do they require a ride?" He glanced at Addy, "Or would you prefer Ms. Sinclair to drive?"
