ooc: Sure ;D, it might get a little scary tho, Colt is half grizzly Novalle held herself tightly to Jake as they pulled into the driveway of the apartment, not knowing quite how tightly she held to him. It was obvious that she was worried, though she tried to downplay it by chattering about nonsense. It had been too long since she had had a guy like Jake, she really hated to lose him on account of her silly brother. As they rolled to a stop in front of the garage she wrapped her arms slightly tighter, hiding the fine tremble to her hands. Colt's truck wasn't here. Was it possible that he had parked in the back? Or was he out searching the town for her? She glanced about the house. Dang. The living room light was on and she could she Colt's shadow as he lifted himself from the couch and walked to the window, lifting the blinds, his pale blue eyes searching to see who was bringing Novalle home so late. Thank God for darkness. She knew he couldn't see them in the cab of the truck, it was too dark, but that didn't mean he wouldn't try. She turned back to Jake, barely seeing him in the darkness. You really don't have to do this, you know? She said softly, her voice not at all shaky despite her nervousness.

jake smiled toward novalle as she clutched him close to her body. his brown eyes looked down on her. "yes. i do." he said commandingly. there was no way novalle was going to talk him out of this. he needed to do this. if he ever planned on being in a long-term relationship with her, he'd need to know her brother. so he hopped out of the car, waving toward colt-perhaps he is a maniac-before returning to novalle, opening the truck door for her before taking her into his arms protectively, still watching colt cautiously as he headed toward the door, knocking, practically waiting for death.

Novalle nodded silently and held onto him as they walked up the steps, her eyes never leaving the window were Colt stood, silhouetted against the curtains. She saw as he moved to the door, and she relaxed slightly, hoping for the best.
When they stopped at the door it practically flew open, revealing the tall, muscular man that happened to be the brother of the tall, thin goddess that stood beside Jake. The scowl that was plastered on his face told of his unhappiness at seeing them together. He had on a pair of Wrangler jeans and a white tank top with a beat up straw hat perched on his black hair. One of the only similarities between the brother and sister, except for their eyes of course. Speaking of eyes, his were flashing anger, discontent and a sudden rage thatcould have been on the account of his hunger or his crazily over-protective nature of his little sister. He stepped onto the threshold of the doorway, disappointed that he did not tower over the guy as he normally did. The sound that came out of his throat was very probably a growl, but who could tell. Finally after a moment of silence, and of much glaring, he spoke in a deep, rough, gravelly voice. You have three seconds to get your paws off my little sister. Oooh...intimidating. How many times had that line worked before? Too many to count. The serious look on his face added to the seriousness of the words.
Slowly Novalle stepped forward slightly, her bottom lip quivering so lightly that it was hard to see, but the tremble in her hands would have been more noticeable if they were hanging by her side instead of holding onto Jake. Colt, stop it. She said, her voice soft and not nearly as demanding or as harsh as she wanted it to be. Fear ran through it making it slightly shaky, but determination added a bit of a grim twist. It was hard to tell whether her words made Colt more docile or more angry.

jake smiled in a friendly way up toward colt despite the fact that novalle's brother was glaring at him rather viciously. "that's alright, i'll take my time." he said. the words should have sounded threatening and stupid on his part, but his voice didn't change. it sounded as friendly and calm as usual. "we brought you some food." he smiled, lifting the pizza up to colt. he'd offer colt to invite his girlfriend to supper with them, but he felt that was going a bit too far.

For a second, Novalle thought she actually saw a little flame flickering in Colt's steel gray eyes. She looked from Colt to Jake, praying that it wouldn't actually come down to a fist fight.
Colt's eyes swiftly went from blue to gray, his lips curling into a vicious smile. He reached out, capturing her arm gently despite his anger. He shifted his eyes to her, then to the boy that stood beside her. Hatred seemed to radiated from his very body. Novalle, go to your room, now. His voice was low, deep, and terrifying as he held her arm, but not her gaze. He stood menacingly filling up the doorway, he never even glanced at the pizza.
Novalle stood there for a second, then glanced at Jake, waiting to see what he would say.

jake stayed in plain sight of the neighbors. if colt actually got around to killing him, hopefully there would be a witness. it was rush hour and cars were driving by, watching the scene unfold. "that's okay, novalle, just have a seat, please." he smiled toward novalle. colt took a vicious step toward him. jake's brown eyes turned amber. "now then. you know your girlfriend doesn't want you trying to hurt me, don't you?" he said coolly.

Novalle nodded, slipping past Colt, walking into the living room to have a seat. When Colt turned, and nodded towards her room, she stood up and shuffled into it, leaving the door open a crack so she could listen in.
Colt then turned back on Jake. Yeah well Amy'll understand and if she doesn't then that's just to d**n bad. He snarled as he took another menacing step towards Jake, not really caring anymore what the police or anyone said, his sisters virtue was all he had on his mind, and he was certain that if she stayed with Jake for much longer it wouldn't stay as perfect as it was. Now look, I know that your just some kid lookin' for someone to fool around with, but I've got some advice for ya. Stay away from Novalle, or your gonna regret it, sorely. He growled as he sized Jake up, wondering if he was as good of a fighter as he looked to be.

jake's eyes seemed to soften as soon as colt's hardened. "now, look. you of all people should know what i'm feeling for your sister." he said, leaning up against the wall with one shoulder. "you have a girlfriend, right? and i'm sure you eventually want to get married to her, am i correct?" he said, waiting for a nod. "i don't care if you shoot me down, i'm coming back for novalle. i might not have known her for a long time, but what i do know is that i love her." he said, amber eyes bright and intense.

Colt's eyes softened only slightly at the reminder of Amy, but they hardened just as quick, leaving only their gray shell. Look, I don't know you, but I've dealt with plenty like you, all of you guys just want her for one thing and she's too gullible to see through your talk about love and all that crap. But you know what, I'm used to looking through your kind. All you'll do is break her heart and leave me here to clean up the pieces, and, you know what? I really don't have time to sit around while she cries her eyes out for some useless, no good jerk. So why don't you turn around and walk right out of her life and save us both some time. He growled, but stopped advancing towards Jake.

"that's okay. i'm not leaving novalle." he said simply. "you can ask her. i'm the one who decided to come here and meet you. she didn't push me into it. if you kill me tonight, it's my fault and i'm fine with that. but i'm not leaving her if i can help it." he declared simply, folding his arms across his chest. "i'm used to this stuff." he said, pulling down the neck of his shirt to show colt the scar from the bullet that had been shot at him years ago. "i fell for another girl like this when i was younger. she had a brother like you, too. shot at me. then the girl got her hands on the gun and killed her brother. just like that." he said, his amber eyes calm and confident, not seeming afraid at all of the past. "the cops had to drag me away and put me in jail before i stopped seeing her. they were convinced i killed him." he said, leaving a moment of silence to hang in the air before speaking again. "but that's over and done with. if you want to kick me out of the house, fine. but i'll be coming back around." he said matter-of-factly.

Colt folded his arms across his chest as well, glaring at the guy still. Smart guy, dumb girl. He stated in rough tones, still glaring at the guy, not convinced that he was nothing but a guy wanting a girl for obvious reasons. Look Kid, I'm warnin ya now. Go home. Leave her be. Trust me, it'll save you and her a lot more hurt in the long run. He said, his voice softening a little. He saw were the guy stood, and he almost admired his stubborn additude, but he had to do what was best for Novalle, and if that included breaking her heart now so she would still have one later then it was okay with him.
Novalle sat on the floor of her room, her back and ear against the door, listening to the muffled voices of the two men. She could tell by Colt's voice that he was calming down a bit, and she hoped that he would accept Jake in time.

"thanks, but no thanks." jake said. "you're just not getting that i'm here to stay, are you colt?" he grinned. "now take your pizza." he said, offering the box to colt again. "can i bring novalle back in here so we can eat?" he said, amber eyes watching colt cautiously, preparing for any sudden movements involving his gun.

Colt made a sound that was most likely a growl. The only thing that kept him from lunging at Jake was the sudden entrance of Novalle, coming from her room, glancing at him reproachfully. He'd always hated to fight in front of her, and she knew it. Colt opened his mouth to order her back into her room right as she reached the pizza box, opening it and sticking a piece of pizza in his mouth. Then she glared at him palyfully. Colton, don't speak with food in your mouth! It's impolite. She said, her beautiful voice calming his nerves. In a second he was entranced by the mouth watering pizza and Novalle was grabbing his arm, leading his towards the couch. Then she glanced over her shoulder at Jake, smiling and nodding for him to come in a take a seat while the "bear" was enticed by food. She placed the pizza box on a large coffee table in the middle of the room, waiting to see how everything else would unfold.

jake smiled toward novalle gratefully before taking his own slice of pizza, having a seat. he offered novalle to come and sit by him. once she did, he smiled toward her, leaning over to kiss her gently. well, then...he's just asking for trouble tonight, isn't he?
