Lily smiled at Reeve's statements about the letter, somehow the look of victory over took her eyes and it seemed as though there was an 'I told ya so' on the tip of her tongue waiting to reach her youngeest brother's ears, when they saw him of course. "Well, I wouldn't say our family is great, but to me they're as good as gold...except for when they team up and catch your doll house on fire with a smoke bomb." Her tone changed as she shot a look at Paulie reminding him of a childhood grudge. He gave a smile but the dread built up and that was just the begining of the stories. They piled into the taxi, Paulie still trying to silently explain to Nathan that he and Red had broken up, but his frustration was getting the best of him. He finally gave up and began to listen to the stories his sister was telling Reeve, only jumping in to protest when needed. "...and I walk into the room to find my barbie dream house nothing more than a pile of ashes and those two standing there pointing at each other, Jacque had a little firemens hat on and his diaper, and Paulie was the one with the fire extinguisher that was about as tall as him." She laughed telling the story, with a few corrections thrown in every now and then. "Yeah, you laugh now..." Paulie grumbled through embarresed huffs, he wasn't too happy with story time, but glad it was there to break the ice. Things were moving smoothly along.

Reeve laughed at that story, imagining Paulie as a tiny child with a fire extinguisher. "Sounds adorable. My brothers and I never set anything on fire... we just terrorized my mom's cat with our Matchbox cars." He slipped his hand into Paulie's, closing his fingers around the other's as Lily told a couple more old family stories, making the little Frenchman huff.

Nathan surely followed laughing at the stories that he had heard many times when ever Paulie would bring over a friend or a new boyfriend. He loved his newly found family ever so much.

Paulie squeezed reeve's hand tightly, a silent 'I love you' between them, making sure Lily didn't tell any embarressing stories, hah, why would she, that was manma's job. The long ride seemed to shorten with the amount of stories that were told and it seemed as though merely ten minutes passed that the taxi pulled to a stop in the driveway of a suburban home and Lily got out letting the ones in the middle out as well and headed to the trunk. As they grabbed their things, the front door opened and a young petite woman with short curly black hair stepped out on the porch holding the hand of a slightly taller man with short black hair. From the looks of it she had dragged him out and was now waving to the ones in the driveway. "Salut, how wuz yo'our flight?" Her strong french accent rolled with everyword. Paulie retrived his bag and Reeve's hand, giving it another loving squeeze. "You alright dearie?"

Reeve's hand tightened around Paulie's almost as strongly as the blond had gripped his in the plane. The nerves came back full-force, but he smiled, bending to press a kiss to his lover's cheek. "Better than all right. You're here." He heard the woman's voice and looked up, lifting the bag in his hand in a half salute. "Bonjour!"

The smaller man gripped, grumbling. There was no way he was happy about meeting Paulie's new boyfriend he knew he wouldn't like him, he didn't like the last one either, nor any of the one's before that. "Bonjour." He said with a growl. Clearly this man did not want to be out there. He was on his father's side on so many things and he was homophobic.
Nathan got out and tapped Lily on the nose. "Now, now darling. I'll have none of that walking..." With that he swooped her off her feet carrying her. He didn't know how appreciated this would be but it was meant as a loving gesture. "I'd talk to you in French but since you told me I was forbidden from speaking in it again I'll just not do it..." He rambled.

Lily giggled and clung to him as he carried her into the house and tapped on his nose. "Thats good, I'm glad you remembered honey." She smiled, greeting the others at the door.
Paulie smiled and gave him a soft kiss on the lips, just to tease him...and maybe to gross out his brother...just a little but. He pulled away quickley and dragged him to the door dropping his bag and giving the woman known as Bridget, a hug and a beise, introducing Reeve to her, then attacking his younger brother with a 'hug' to pick on him. "It's nice to meet you" She replied giving him a handshake and a hug. "Welcome to the family." Paulie's torture towards his brother became rather loud. "Aww come on Jacque," He teased, "...don't you want to say hello to your older brother?" he clung to him tightly, swinging him around to face Reeve. "Jacque, this is my boyfreind Reeve, Reeve this is my homophobic brother Jacque" He grinned absolutley delighted he could pick on his brother.

Reeve got the message, throwing his arms around Jacque in a big bear hug. "Ah, it's wonderful to meet you. Paulie's told me SO much about you," he grinned, releasing the smaller man. It was so funny to watch the reactions of the blond's family... although the glares he'd gotten from Nathan and Jacque had made him wonder how Red had gotten along with them.

Jacque growled the entire time Paulie had his hands on him, yelling or welled screamed really at the top of his lungs. "Mooommm~!!! His touching me! MOOOMM!!!!" Squirming, twisting, scrambling to try and get away. "Non, I don't want to see you, get the hell off of me!" Yes, it was always like this with the two brothers. Once the brotherly blonde had taken his mitts off of him he huffed getting up and dusting off only to mbe hugged by Reeve. "Oh fuck no! Don't you dare!" He shouted glaring intensly as the other blonde came in for his bear hug. And without hesitation he kicked him, being the soccor player he was it wasn't soft either, right in the shin as he was loosing air in that hug.
Nathan had adapted to Reeve already and was cool with him, he thought the man was a bit quiet but other than that he was fine, warming up to people didn't take long for him.

If not for the fact that Lily and Bridget had came abck outside, Paulie would have killed his brother right then and there. Bridget forced him to apologize through harsh words before paulie could force him through violence. "Stop the bloody bickering!" Lily yelled dragging them inside. "You're causing a scene!" Inside the house was a dark wood look, with a stair case on one side and the living room leading to the other. There were pictures hung up, some in black and white, some in color of family, friends, etc and the smell of mouth watering food hit them upon entering the house. Bridget took them upstairs to their room and then they came back down into the kitchen where a nice sized plump woman stood pulling a chicken out of the oven. She turned around and immediantly pulled Paulie into a big hug, speaking in french at lightspeed.

Reeve winced, letting go of Jacque immediately. "Damn, I see you really ARE a soccer player," he managed, rubbing his shin.
As they went inside, he took a moment to look around the place... habit by now. The pictures, the dark wood, everything was so beautiful. After they'd dropped their bags off, he followed Paulie into the kitchen, seeing the woman who hugged the little blond and smiling. Paulie's family was so loving... it seemed almost a miracle.

Jacque refused to appologize until things turned to the worse looking of them and it wasn't the most sincerest thing to be heard. He huffed and took a seat next to his father and Nathan. It was the group of men.
Nathan waved again as though he hadn't been there to see the two the first time.
Ilaijha, better know as the father of the younger ones stood up. His grim expression only showed how unimpressed he was so far. He had always been so much harder on Paulie, only because the blonde was more like him than any of his other children. "Ilaijha...." He said, tone not too excited.

Paulie intentionally ignored his father, introducing Reeve to his mother who gave Reeve a warming hug also and a biese, complementing on his handsome he was. Paulie was alwayds skilled at ignoring his father and any thoughts he had felt he needed to share mainly because of his name change in high school. No one referred to him as Ilaijah since he was 13 and that wasn't going to change now.

Reeve shot a quick glance at the man who spoke, then was warmly hugged by Paulie's mother, greeting her respectfully in her own language as she smiled at him. He had been a little afraid to meet Paulie's parents, but his maman seemed like a sweet lady. His father on the other hand... he turned slightly, offering a respectful bow and greeting to the man. "Monsieur, it is a pleasure."

"Mnn....Mercie (sp you guys, I'm no french person)" He said looking him over, well at least he would talk to him, it never went well with anyone that Paulie had dated with his father. Reasons were unknown to most everyone other than maybe one or two given people. He glanced a glare to Paulie then looked back to Reeve. "Non sex in ze house.....ever." He laid out that rule with no problem.
