My god! AJ thought to himself. Why is he so mad? Why can't he just let me live my own life. Make my own mistakes. His face boiled over with anger. He's done this to all of us for as long as I can remember. He's the reason Brian didn't have sex until he was 25!

SLAP!!

He was snapped out of his thoughts by a stinging slap across his face. Kevin had never struck any of them before.

SLAP! SLAP!

Jesus Christ, does that sting!

He grabbed Kevin's hand and pushed it away with all his strength.

SLAP!

Kevin's other hand had flown, quick as lightenin' out of nowhere, catching AJ on the other side of his face.

Kevin raised his hand for one more brutal slap. Just as his hand was about to slice through the air, he was cut short by a young girl's scream.

He turned around to see Howie, instead of a girl, hunched over an unconscious Nick.

Damn that Howie. Kevin cursed Howie angrily in his own thoughts. He used to scream like that on the tour bus, making me think a teenybopper was locked in the bathroom.

"AAUUUGGHHH!!" Howie's girlish scream rang through the air again as he reached down and stroked Nick's forehead. His blonde locks were covered in a cold sweat.

AJ had taken advantage of the situation and slipped underneath his car. Kevin's eyebrows would never fit under there.

He smirked at his own agility. The smile quickly left his face when he caught a glimpse of Nick's tear stained cheeks. This war between him and Kevin was tearing the little guy apart.

Nick's eyes flew open, startling AJ.

"AAUUGGHH!!" He jumped , bumping his head on the underside of the car.

"AAAUUGGHH!!" Nick screamed, tossing his legs up in the air.

"AAUUGGHH!!" Howie screamed as Nick's legs struck him in the shin.

Howie's scream startled Leighanne, who's scream startled Brian, who's scream set Baylee into a crying fit.

Kevin glared at them, his hands on his hips. "Stop screwing around!"

"AAAAUUUGGGHHHHHH!!!!"

All eyes turned to Nick, who's mouth was wide open in the middle of a blood curdling scream. Kevin shot him a look.

"Sorry... uh... you looked extremely menacing just now." Nick explained, as Howie helped him to his feet.

Kevin turned around to face AJ. "Now where was I?"

He growled at the empty space between him and the car. "Mclean!!" He looked in the trunk, tossing paper bags aside. "Mclean, get your ass back here!"

He went to the front seat and looked inside the car. "MCLEAN!!!!"

He stormed back to the group. "Where is he? Where's AJ?!"

They all shrugged. Baylee burped.

"AJ who?" Nick asked innocently.

"Nick you know who."

"No. Who's AJ? I don't know any AJ? Haven't seen anybody named AJ in years... or maybe not even ever."

"Nick! Don't pee on my shoe and tell me it's raining."

Nick had a knack for making Kevin want to smack him senseless.

Nick looked down at his fly. It wasn't open and nothing was peeing. "Huh?"

Nick was cute, but sometimes he oughtta be up for the "Best Blonde" award.

"Where is he?!" Kevin roared.

Howie jumped and stepped behind Nick.

"You'll never get it out of me!

Kevin stomped his foot and Nick jumped. "He's under the car! He's under the car! That car right there!!"

Note to self: Burn Nick's latest comic book collection. AJ thought to himself. He felt Kevin's hand brush against his foot. He rolled himself into a fetal position to avoid Kevin's grasp from all directions.

Once again, he smirked at his own agility.

Kevin threw his hands up in exasperation. "Fine, Mclean! If you want to ruin your own life, then fine! I don't care anymore!! You selfish little bastard!"

He stormed off down the parking lot, spitting out curse words that turned Brian's skin green. His face went from green to pink to purple as he held his breath. He let the breath out quickly, a scream coming with it. He tossed Baylee into Nick's arms and ran off towards his vat of holy water to scrub his ears again, screaming "blasphemy, blashphemy" the whole way there.

Leighanne covered her face in embarrasment.

"You married him." Nick said, as he held the squirming baby at arm's length.

"Nick, he's not a porkchop!" she screeched at Nick, yanking Baylee back into the safety of her own arms.

"Mmmm, porkchops." Nick's eyes glazed over as he visually turned Baylee into a hot steamy porkchop(covered in Twinkies).

"Nick, if you eat my baby, I will kill you!"

A puddle of drool formed at Nick's feet. He was getting hungrier by the minute. He took a step towards leighanne to take a bite out of her porkchop... I mean, baby.

His left foot went right into his puddle of drool. His feet flew up in the air followed by the rest of his body. He landed hard, flat on his back. "Ow! My schin!... No wait, My spine!!"

AJ watched the whole thing from under the car. He shook his head in disgust. Sometimes the things him and the guys went through were ridiculous. Just a minute ago Nick was bawling like a little girl, and now here he was trying to eat Brian and Leighanne's baby. "Well, at least they've forgotten about me." He muttered to himself. "Maybe they'll go away."
