"I can stand on my own two legs just fine, thank you." Jake growled staring at their new guest. "Why are you even here anyway? You hardly know my sister and yet you follow her home like a lost puppy, what is it that you hope to gain?" He questioned holding his ground despite how nervous he felt about this guy. There was something off about the way he was with Skylar and how different he was out here. "I swear to God if you hurt my sister..."<br/><br/>Skylar watched from around the corner and up a tree, which was much safer to climb. She smiled at her brother's bold attitude and his courage but she knew it to be tinged with a slightly foolish pride. She smiled and watched, waiting to see what her new friend would teach Jake through example and herself by observation.
