A black Pontiac parked infront of an apartment complex, a male social worker stepped out. He took small piece of paper out of his pocket, looked at it then looked at the address of the building then nodded "Yup this is it. Now just to find the apartment." He said to himself. He walked in, then walked up the stairs till he came to a door on the eigth floor. He nodded, then knocked on the door, then waited.

It was nearly noon and the two brothers were still enjoying some sleep which neither of them had gotten lately. Awaken by the sound of heavy knocking against the door, Connor mumbled a few choice words under his breath as he attempted to wake himself up before he answered the door. "Yeah?" He asked, while the sun temporarily blinded him.

The social worker heard the door open, then saw a figure looking at him "Hello, im sorry to disturb you. But is this the Murphy and Connor residence? If it is, im John Mcallister im a social worker, and I am here to inform you that you have a little sister." He said, knowing that this may come to b a little bit of a shock to the man behind the door.

He was started to think he wasn't really awake, instead this was apart of a dream or something. "Yeah, this is the place." He replied, before yawning again and the information actually registered. Connor couldn't help but start to laugh just a bit, after all this guy had told him that they had a sister. "Wait, you're being serious?" He replied, after noticing that the social worker wasn't laughing.

The social worker noticed a normal Irish accent on the man, he nodded as he responded that he was in the right place. It was only a matter of seconds before the man started laughing, the social worker remained silent, then put on his serious face. He heard the man's response "No, I am not."He said. After a few moments he went inside the appartment and waited for the men to get dress. He sat at the table, "Her name is Iris, she's sixteen." He said, as he opened his suitcase, then took out a picture of a blonde girl, with green eyes. He handed the picture to Connor "She's a very sweet girl, but she also has a rebellious side." John continued.

"Murphy, wake the freakin' hell up!" Connor yelled over his shoulder, before he invited John inside. He looked around for a pair of clean clothes, which for him normally consisted of a black shirt and jeans. After Connor threw a pillow at Murphy, he finally got up and looked at the social worker with a confused expression. Connor walked back into the living room, sitting down at the table and looking at the picture. "We've got ourselves a sister, Murph." He chuckled, showing the picture to his brother. "What?" Murphy was just as shocked as his brother was, after all the idea of them having a sister just didn't make sense.

John looked at Connor as he heard him yell at Murphy, his twin brother. John was kinda amazed, for twins they didn't look like twins. Only a few things made them look like brothers, their accent, hair color, and personalty. He looked at the Murphy, then back to Connor "You both know your mother and father are divorced, and also your mother passed away from being ill. Now we would've gone to your father, but with his criminal record there was no way we could trust him with sixteen year old. So then we came to you, im not asking you to keep here, but she needs a place to stay for a months, so we can find a foster home for her. Now we are willing to pay you $200, but half of that money needs to go to taking care of Iris." He said to the two brothers. He took out some paperwork, and placed it on the table with a pan, "All, you need to do, is that you both need to sign it, agreeing that she has a place to stay for a while, and half of the money goes to taking care of her. And if you choose she can stay here permantly." The social worker said to the two brothers.

Connor sighed as he listened to John explain the current situation with their father and his record. He probably would have said no to the whole idea, except John had mentioned that they were Iris's last hope. Murphy and Connor exchanged glances, and that whole twin telephathy thing seemed to work with them because they both sighed and agreed. They weren't exactly enthuiastic about having to keep track of a sixteen-year-old, but she was in desperate need of a place to stay and they were her only option. "Fine, I guess we'll let her stay." Connor sighed the paper before handing it to Murphy who also sighed it and handed it back to John.

John watched the two brothers as they looked at eachother. He was just sat there quietly, not going to disturb them, he looked at Connor as he replied that they would agree to let her stay, he watch them sign it, John put it back in his suitcase "Thank you. I'll give you call when she gets here." He said, "Nice meeting you." He said, as he walked out door and closed it behind him.
Two days later
Iris looked out the window of the plane, as it landed, a few moments later she walked off the plane with a backpack on her back, and a black traveling bag in her hand. She saw John and walked towards him "Hello Iris, how was your flight?" He asked, "It was alright." She replied with a light Irish accent. She walked with John to his black car, she put her bags on the backseat and sat in the front passenger seat "What were they like?" She asked John, "They seem like very nice guys." John replied. Iris looked out the window, the whole way there. It would only be a few moments when they would reach her brother's apartment.
Rocco was standing with Murphy, and Connor hearing the news about them being older brothers "Intense stuff man, what does she look like?" He asked, then put a cigerette between his lips and lite it with his lighter. He pulled it away, and let out the smoke.

Connor sighed, he wasn't sure what he was getting them into at all. Murphy smirked at his brother, "Well sh.it, this is all your fault." Murphy couldn't resist the urge to say something, while Connor reached for the nearest object to throw at Murphy which just happened to be the TV remote. "Shut up, or I'll give her your room."
The two brothers were standing outside with Rocco, their close friend and someone who had known the two of them for a very long time. At the sight of Rocco pulling out the lighter from his pocket, Murphy and Connor almost immediately lit a cigarette at the exact same time. Connor went back inside, and found the picture laying on the table where he had left it. "Here." He sighed as he handed it to Rocco.

Iris wondered how her older brothers would treat her, she knew that they just found out they were older brothers. And that wasn't part of their plan. Rocco looked at the picture that Connor gave to him, "She's cute. But who knows, look can be decieving." He said as he handed the picture back to Connor. Rocco knew that he had been hanging out with Connor and Murphy too long, but when you seprated them, it was like world war three. Rocco saw a black car pull up along the sidwalk, Iris looked at the two figures who are supposed to be her older brothers. John looked at her, then to Connor and Murphy. Iris looked back at John, before she opened the door and stepped out of the car, looking towards Connor and Murphy.

The two brothers both sighed, as the girl got out of the car. "I guess that's her." Connor said to Murphy and Connor, trying to sound somewhat enthusiastic although he sounded more sarcastic. "What the hell have we gotten ourselves into this time?" Murphy said under his breath. Connor shrugged in response, perhaps Rocco was right. She didn't look that bad judging by her picture, although none of them really knew what to except. "Well, is that her?" Connor asked John, before his attention shifted back to Iris.

Iris heard the Irish accent from Connor, she looked at him then Murphy. Neither of them seemed happy about being older brothers, Rocco put the cigerette between his lips, while he reamined silent. John nodded, "Yes, she is. Iris these are your older brothers Murphy, and Connor." John said, "Hi." Iris simply replied. Then she got her bags out, after a few moments, Iris found herself in her temporary home, until her social worker could find a foster home for her. She heard the door close behind her, she turned her head as she Murphy, Connor, and Rocco "So what are the rules?" She asked Murphy, and Connor.

The brothers put out their cigarettes before going back inside the apartment. "Uh well, I suppose we really don't have any." Connor wasn't sure on how else to answer her question. They really didn't live by a certain set of rules except for trying to keep out of each other's way from time to time. The next thing they had to do was to find someplace to Iris to sleep. They had a spare room that Rocco used from time to time. "Follow me and I'll show you your room." Connor told her, as he walked to the end of the hallway.

Iris looked around the apartment, before following Connor. She watched him open a door to a brown colored wall room, with black wooden furniature, she looked around "It's nice." She said to Connor, she looked at him "Connor, thanks for taking me in." She said with a small smile. Rocco looked at Murphy "Well it doesn't seem to bad to a girl around, besides your apartment can use a little female touch." Rocco said to Murphy.
A week later.
Iris was leaning against the hallway wall, hearing Murphy, Connor, and Rocco talking about. And some of the things they were saying about her, brought her to tears. She went to her room, crying until she fell asleep. The next night, Iris was hanging out with a few friends, outside a private property. It was ten o'clock, she was already supposed to be back at the apartment at nine, but Murphy, Connor, and Rocco were at the pub so she didn't care. She fixed the collor of her coat that went down to her kneecaps. Then the three teenagers started to climb over the fence. Rocco was driving to the pub, when he saw the three teenager climbing over the fence, then he noticed Iris, "You little s.hit." He said, then started to drive towards the fence, he pulled out his phone to call Connor and Murphy, "Hey, Connor your not going to believe who I just saw right now." He said. Fifthteen minutes later, he saw Murphy, and Connors car pull up nex to his, Rocco lighted a cigerette then pulled it away from his lips, "She's been in there for twenty minutes. I haven't heard anything, if something happened we would be hearing the dogs barking like nuts." He said to Murphy and Connor.
