Been in care all his life? No, Reese didn't know that. No, nobody hasn't even attempted to tell her anything about that. Do people just think it's easier to keep Reese out of everything? Truthfully, it probably was, but she liked to be informed about stuff. "Do you two get along?" She questioned. The answer was probably 'yes', but she needed to make sure. "Attention? Don't we..." She paused there. Thinking about it, Jake didn't get much attention back at the house: Heath usually was worrying about his car, her mom was always cooking or on the phone, and Ryan usually spent time with Dale. Reese usually was out and about shopping or hanging out with friends, so she normally wasn't around the house during the day.

Great. Just great.

"Jake, if they said you need attention, I can't disagree with you having to move out. You barely got any attention at the house," she said. She should have spent more time with her brother - she really should have. "Maybe after I get back from Greece, you and me can go out for a day? Just you and me," she suggested. "We need some sisterly and brotherly time, don't you think?"
"'M fine," Jake looked away quickly, realising that maybe he hadn't hidden his expression as well as he'd thought. But REALLY! No adult supervision. NONE!

Not like Jake could talk. But Reese wasn't Jake. She was Jake's sister. And that meant Jake would have to talk to Jack about this.

The boy watched as Reese seemed to consider things, and he tilted his own head. For some reason, he wanted Reese to understand that this was what was best for everyone. Yeah, he probably wouldn't get to see Dale again... not that much if at all... but... the attention. "We dddddo get along," he nodded, eyes begging Reese to understand that.

He nodded when his sister spoke, not really commenting... not wanting to point the finger at anyone or badmouth anyone at all.

"We ssshhhould do that," he answered quietly, and added silently. As long as I'm not, like, grounded or anything.

Well, he HAD got up to mischief that year.
