“You got my back?” he asks, shutting the faucet off and kicking the cupboard doors closed.

“Hell yes.” Holding my fist out, he bumps his with mine and we take off for the front door, side by side. Poor Joe is going to shit his pants when he sees us because we are a force to be reckoned with. We always have been, and we always will be. No matter what.

Kudos to the kid for not running the other way when we open the door. You can tell he’s nervous, his hands shaking as he holds onto the corsage he brought for Evie, but he holds his head high as Max leads him down the hall to his father’s office. Being in here brings back memories of the night he gave usthe talk.

“So, you’re taking my little sister to prom?” Max asks as he shuts the door behind us. Before Joe has a chance to answer, he continues, jumping right into his father’s speech. I couldn’t be prouder at the moment. It’s like he memorized it, nailing all the major points, causing a sheen of sweat to break out on Joe’s forehead.

Treat her like a lady. Open doors for her, pull out her chair. Basically, be a goddamn gentleman.

Have her home on time. No detours. No driving around. Respect her family.

No touching her inappropriately. This includes her butt, boobs, andgirly area.

Most importantly, no sex or anything that could lead to it. Clothes must stay on at all times. His and hers.

I’m enjoying the show when Evie bursts through the door, looking like she’s going to strangle Max with her bare hands. He hadn’t even gotten to the best part yet. What will happen if Joe breaks a rule. Not that he needs to say it, it was implied. I think Joe got the message loud and clear.

I know I did when James gave me the same talk.
