I was pretty tired, and it was dark out, but I drove to Alex's instead of home anyway. I got there and knocked on his door.
"HEY!" He said. He sounded surprised. "Come in! I was hoping you would come over tonight." He said.
"Of course. It was good seeing you today. Cailin, not so much."
"Yeah, sorry about that." He said.
"Hey, don't worry about it. So, how ya feelin?" I asked.

"Good." He said.
We talked for a few minutes, then we had sex. Afterwards, we went to get some smoothies at a smoothie place down the street.
"Well, I am going to go home and get to sleep. I'm tired." I said.
"Alright. Come by again some time." He said.
"I will." I said smiling.
"Good." He said.
We drove back to his apartment and I went home.

I went straight to bed. I was so exhausted! The next morning I woke up and went out to the living room to watch some TV. Christopher was already up and had MTV on.
"Aren't there cartoons or something to watch?" I asked him.
"Nope." He said.
"Shut up! There's got to be something else on!" I said.
"Nah, I don't think so."
"Ugh! You suck!" I said, and got up to go to the kitchen.
"Hey sweetie, you have plans today?" My mom asked.
"I have to go by the book store to pick up some books I need to read of the summer. Other then I that, I think I'm free." I told her.

2:39 PM
Sarah said...
"Amellia gave me a call last night. She invited us all over for dinner." She said smiling.

We grew up living next door to Amellia and her two kids. Ayden and Alisha. Ayden was a year older then me and Alisha was Christopher's age. We hadn't seen them for a long time. I always had a crush on Ayden though, so I was curious to see what he was like now. "That sounds like fun!" I said excited. I made myself some oatmeal and sat down on the couch in the living room. Punk'd reruns came on. "Yes!" I said smiling.
Christopher changed the channel.
"Hey!" I shouted. He changed it back to Punk'd. "I was kidding. Chill out." He said.

2:56 PM
Christina said...
"Dork. So you going over for Dinner at the Parkinson's?" I asked.
"Yeah. I wanna see what Ayden and Alisha are like now." He said.
"Me too." I said. After we ate I went up stairs and got ready so I could run out to the bookstore.

3:21 PM
Sarah said...
I spent about a half hour at there trying to find the books I needed. I finally found them and checked out. I stopped at the gas station on the way home to get gas and a drink. When I got home, Christopher was still watching TV and Mom was in the kitchen doing dishes. I went in to help her out.

6:30 PM
Christina said...
I started drying while she washed. "Remember when you and Christopher were kids? You two would awlays want to help out. You would always end up making the biggest messes! I 'd have to come back later, and clean up. Sometimes I'd even have to rewash some of the dishes!" She said. I laughed.
"Yeah, I remember! That one time Chris broke dad's favorite coffee mug and we tried to hide it in the empty cookie jar!" I said. Mom started laughing.
"I had forgotten all about that!!" She said.

10:26 AM
Sarah said...
"It's funny that we actually thought you guys wouldn't figure it out." I said laughing.
She laughed. "You kids are growing up too fast."
"We're still young." I said.
"Yeah, but you're getting older and doing grown up things. . ." She said.
I smiled, "I know."

11:08 AM
Christina said...
We finished up the dishes, and sat down at the table.
"What do you say we go get our nails done today? We havn't done that in a while." My mom suggested.
"I would love to!" I told her. We used to go that kind of thing together all the time, but we hadn't been able too much since I had started college.

12:32 PM
Sarah said...
We grabbed our purses and headed to the salon. I decided to get my hair cut while we were there too. It had been a while since I had the dead ends trimmed off. After that, we went and got salad's at Jack in the Box for lunch.

Christina said...
"This is fun. I miss these days!" She said.
"Yeah, me too! I'm excited about dinner tonight. It should be a lot of fun to catch up with the Parkinsons!" I said.
"It'll be fun!" She said.
When we got home My dad was in the den working on his model planes.
"There you ladies are." He said. My mom walked over to him, and gave him a kiss.
"Working hard?" My mom asked him.
"Yeah. I'm almost done with the WWII collection." He said.
"Well, that is great dear. Don't forget about dinner tonight." She said.
"Is that tonight?" He asked.
"Yes dear." My mom said.
"Oh, okay. I was going to watch the game with Steve, but I'll just do that another time." He said.

1:21 PM
Sarah said...
"Yeah you will." Mom said.
"Amellia says the new house is beautiful. I can't wait to see it." She said. We went inside and I went to my room to read for a while. I still had a lot of time to kill before dinner.

1:45 PM
Christina said...
When it got closer to time I got ready and then went downstairs. Christopher was on the computer.
"What are you up to?" I asked him.
"I'm trying to find something for Anna's birthday." He said.
"Oh. Maybe I can help." I said, sitting down next to him.
"I hope so. I have no idea!" He said.
"Well, what does she like?" I asked.
"I don't know!" I shouted, sounding kind of panicked.
"You can't go wrong with jewelry or perfume." I told him.
"I wanted to get something more personal though." He said.

"I wanted to get something more personal though." He said.

3:33 PM
Sarah said...
"Such as?" I asked.
"I don't know. A necklace or something." He said, "Mom said she will pay for half."
"Ugh. You are so spoiled beyond measure." I said.
He rolled his eyes.
"I know the perfect necklace." I said. "Scoot over."
He got up and I sat down in front of the computer. I found the necklace. It was one I had always thought would be awesome to get from a boyfriend. It was a silver chain necklace with a heart and a key hanging from it. It sounds tacky, but it's a beatiful elegant necklace.
"That's perfect." He said, "You're awesome."
"I know!" I said excited.
"Ya think Mom will give me a hundred and fifty dollars though?" He asked.
"Yeah." I said, "I'm sure she will."

3:39 PM
Christina said...
"Awesome! She'll love this." He said. He bookmarked the website and logged off.
"You kids ready?" My mom asked.
"Yeah." I said, standing up.
"Mom, Ally helped me find the perfect gift!" Christopher shouted.
"Thats great!" She said. "You can show it to me later."
"Well, everyone ready?" My dad asked.

3:46 PM
Sarah said...
"Yeah!" Mom said. We all walked to the front door and put our shoes on. We went out to the car and Dad locked up the house. It took us about thirty minutes to get to their house. We walked up to the door and Mom knocked. Amellia opened the door. "Hi!" She said excited. She gave us all hugs.
"Ayden! Alisha!" She shouted.
They both came down the stairs. "You remember Chistopher and Ally." Amellia said to them.
Ayden had tattoos all down his left arm. He was wearing a red shirt with a big black star on it and jeans. His hair was brown and spikey. "Hi." He said giving me a hug. "Hey." I said smiling. He was kind of cute, but not really my type. Alisha had a pink mini skirt on and a black tube top on. She had a ton of make up on too. I guess she looked pretty, but she didn't look like the type of person I would normally hang out with. "Hi." She said waving. Ayden shook my Dad's hand and gave my Mom a hug. We all went to the kitchen and sat down at the table.
"Ayden is going to be touring with his band soon." Amellia said.
"What kind of music?" I asked.
"Um, I guess it's called Emo these days." He said.
"Oh cool." I said smiling.
He just nodded. "Alisha is working on being the valedictorian next year in school." She said.
"Oh good for you." My Mom told Alisha smiling.
Alisha sighed, "It's going to be tough to beat Greggy Swonsooni, but I'm going to try my hardest." She said.
"Ally is still in college, working really hard as well." Mom said. "And Christopher is doing really well in school too. He is going to join the wrestling team next year."
"I did that for two years. It was a lot of fun." Ayden said.
Christopher nodded.

4:31 PM
Christina said...
I don't think he minded Ayden, but he kept looking at Alisha weird. She had kind of a stuck up attitude, and she was completely the opposite of anyone he would hang out with. I kept catching Ayden's eye, and he would look away. I just kept smiling to myself. There was a knock on the door.
"Oh, that must be Jim." Amelia said. She got up and answered the door, coming back with a man that looked a little older then she did.
"This is my boyfriend Jim." She said, and then introduced us all.

6:41 PM
Sarah said...
He sat down at the table with us. Mom and Amellia talked through most of dinner. The rest of us were kind of quiet. Jim and Dad talked about cars a little, but that's about it.
"Well, we better get going now." Mom said, finally!
"Oh, well it was so nice seeing you. We'll have to start getting together more often." Amellia said.
"We will." Mom said smiling. We said goodbye and headed home.

10:58 PM
Christina said...
"Thank God!" Christopher said in the car.
"What?" mom asked him.
"Alisha was so annoying!" He said.
"Yeah, and Ayden kept staring at me!" I said, and Christopher laughed.
"Well, Amelia was delightful, and Jim seemed like a nice guy." She said.
"Who doesn't know a damn thing about cars!" My dad said. Chris and I laughed again. When we got home my phone rang, it was Goose.

7:45 AM
Sarah said...
I just let it ring. I didn't feel like hanging out with anyone. I went to my room and layed down on my bed. I started reading my book and my phone rang again. I picked it up to see who it was. It was Alex. I debating whether or not to pick it up and ended up answering without thinking. "Hey!" I said.
"You busy?" He asked.
"Not at all. I'm just sitting here reading." I said.
"You want to come by for a little bit?" He asked.
"Sure!" I said.
He laughed, "So this is still okay?" He asked.
"Fine by me! Neither of us are getting it anywhere else. Right?" I asked.
"Right." He said.
"Be there in a few minutes." I said giggling and hung up.

10:26 AM
Christina said...
I drove over there, and knocked on the door. Alex opened it, grabbed my arm, and pulled me inside, shutting the door behind him.
"Wow." I said.
"Sorry, I've just really, really, wanted to see you." He said, kissing my neck, and lips.
"Whoa, whoa! Slow down!" I said, giggling.
"Sorry. I'm just excited." He said, and I laughed.

10:55 AM
Sarah said...
We went to his bedroom and had sex. Afterwards, we watched some TV and I went back home. I got ready for bed and started reading my book. I ended up falling asleep, not even getting through one chapter.

12:13 PM
Christina said...
I woke up late in the night when I heard something hit my window. I figured it must be a bird or something, so I rolled over. Then I heard a tapping sound.
"What the hell?" I muttered. I wasn't sure if I heard something, or was just imagining things.
I got up and pulled my curtains to the side. Sure enough, there was someone standing there. I couldn't see who it was though, so I turned opened the window.
"Who is there?" I whispered.
"Sorry. It's Christopher." Chris whispered.
"What are you doing out there? Get in here!" I said, pulling my window open more. He climbed in, and sat on my bed.
"Sorry. I was suposed to be home three hours ago. I dropped my keys in the front yard somewhere, so I couldn't get in the front door." He said. I couldn't help but think that was funny.
"Have you been drinking?" I asked.
"Maybe." He said.
"Tell you what, I wont tell mom if you promise not to ever drive home drunk again. Call me next time, okay." I said.
"Okay. Deal." He said, and started laughing.
"What is so funny?" I asked.

1:05 PM
Sarah said...
"Nothing." He said. He climbed inside and stumbled out of my room. I watched him walk down the hall to his bedroom and shut the door. I closed my window and layed back down.

1:44 PM
Christina said...
I started laughing again. I eventualy fell back to sleep. The next morning I got up and went downstairs. Chris was sitting at the table, and he looked like shit. I started laughing again when I remembered the night before.
"How did I get in last night?" He asked me. "I can't find my keys." Then I really started laughing.
"You climbed in my window dork. You said you dropped your keys in the yard and couldn't find them." I said.
"I don't even remember." He said.
"I'll help you look for your keys. If you ever drive home that wasted again though, I'll kill you myself." I said.

1:57 PM
Sarah said...
He just rolled his eyes. We went out to the front yard. His keys were in the door. "You're retarded." I said. He just grabbed the keys and went to his bedroom.
I noticed the kitchen was kind of messy, so I decided to clean it up. As I started to wipe the counters, my Dad walked into the kitchen. He turned on the cd player and put in his Tom Petty cd.

2:25 PM
Christina said...
"Feelin Tom Petty today, dad?" I asked.
"Honey, Tom Petty is good everyday." He said, and I laughed. He helped me clean up the kitchen, and both sang along to the CD and laughing.
"Remember when you were little? You used to dance on my feet." He said.
"Yeah! I remember! I loved it." I said.
"You wanna dance?" He asked.
"I'm to old for that!" I said, laughing.
"Not on my feet butthead! Just dance with me!" He said, and I laughed.
"Fine dad." I said.

3:38 PM
Sarah said...
We went out to the living room and he spun me smiling. A faster song came on and we both dance around the room being silly. Mom walked into the room and laughed at us. Then she joined in. "Christopher!" She shouted. Dad laughed. "We use to do this all the time." Mom said, "I want him to join us." Christopher walked into the room. "Oh no." He said laughing. Mom danced over to him and grabbed his hand. "Mom." He said rolling his eyes. She laughed, "Dance with us." She said. She started pulling him around the room. All he did was laugh.
"Can we have a family night tonight?" Mom asked.
"Of course!" I said smiling.
"Ah man." Christopher said.
"Hey!" Mom said laughing. "You can spend time with us!"
"I guess." Christopher said.

5:08 PM
Christina said...
"Hey, you are going to, and you are going to have fun damn it!" My dad shouted. Christopher started laughing.
"Okay, okay! But I am NOT dancing!" He said.
"Good, you suck anyway." My mom said, and stuck her tounge out at him.

7:08 PM
Sarah said...
He rolled his eyes again. Dad turned down the music. "Let's get pizza for dinner." Christopher said.
"We can do that." Mom said.
"Pizza it is." Dad said.
"Gosh, you guys didn't spoil me as much as you spoil Christopher." I said.
"He is not spoiled." Mom said.
"Are you freaking kidding me?" I asked laughing.
"You do spoil him." Dad said to Mom.
"You both do!" I said.
Dad shrugged his shoulders. "So, what is the plan for tonight? Games?" Dad asked.

7:55 PM
Christina said...
"Subject changer!" I shouted, and everyone laughed.
"Games it is!" Christopher.
"Pictionary! First!" I said.
"No, monopoly!" Christopher shouted.
"Pictionary it is." My dad said.
"Thanks dady!" I said, and stuck my tounge out at Christopher.
"Hey! Did you two go back in age again or somethin?" My mom asked.

8:34 PM
Christina said...
"Subject changer!" I shouted, and everyone laughed.
"Games it is!" Christopher said.
"Pictionary! First!" I said.
"No, monopoly!" Christopher shouted.
"Pictionary it is." My dad said.
"Thanks dady!" I said, and stuck my tounge out at Christopher.
"Hey! Did you two go back in age again or somethin?" My mom asked

9:11 PM
Sarah said...
"No!" I said laughing.
"I vote for just watching a movie." Mom said.
"I really don't care what we do." I said.
"Okay." Mom said, "Let's just watch a movie. I'll order pizza's around seven."
"Sounds good." I said. I went to my bedroom to call Goose back.

9:13 PM
Christina said...
"Hey Goose." I said when he answered the phone.
"Whats up?" He asked.
"I'm hanging out with my family tonight." I told him.
"Oh cool! Sounds like fun." He said.
"It'll be interesting. We havn't done anything like this for a little while." I told him.

9:20 PM
Sarah said...
"Did Todd tell you we were all going out tomorrow night?" He asked.
"No! What a butthead!" I said.
He laughed, "Well, we are all going out tomorrow night to The Joe Place." He said.
"Oh okay cool." I said, "That's a fun bar."
"Todd and I can pick you up if you want." He said.
"Yeah, sure." I said excited.
"Okay. We will be there around seven to pick you up." He said.
"Okay. See you then." I said.
"Bye." He said.
"Bye!" I hung up.

9:30 PM
Christina said...
"ALLY! You get to pick the first movie!" I heard my mom shout.
"Okay, I'll be right there!" I said.
I changed into some pj's and went out to the family room.
"We are watching Robin Hood Men in Tights!" I said, holding it up.
"You always want to watch that!" Christopher said.
"It's funny." I told him.
"You pick the next movie, Chris." My mom said.

9:36 PM
Sarah said...
"Ninja Turtles." He said.
"No! I just got stuck watching that with Todd not too long ago." I said.
"Well, you are going to see it again." He said.
Mom and Dad laughed.
"Fine!" I said. I went to the kitchen to get something to drink.
"I'm going to run to the store and get some soda." Dad said.
"Can you get me some tampons?" I asked.
"I suppose." He said.
Christopher started laughing. "Shut up!" I shouted. I got a rubber band from the drawer and shot him with it.
"Oh you children will never grow up." Mom said. "I am going to go take a shower."

9:54 PM
Christina said...
"You are so dead!" Christopher shouted.
"Whatever! You have never once been able to kick my ass!" I shouted.
"Oh really?" He yelled.
"Yes really!"
"It's on!" He said. He stood up, and I ran over and tackled him onto the couch. We started wrestling, and he gave me an Indian burn.
"Ouch! You ASS!" I shouted. Then I pinned him and gave him a titty twister. He screamed, and then we both started laughing.
"TRUCE!" He shouted.
"I win again." I said.
"Whatever!" He shouted.
"I so won that one."

10:02 PM
Sarah said...
"So, is this what you and your teacher do?" He asked.
"Christopher, shut up." I whispered.
He laughed.
"Seriously, shut up." I said. I got my drink from the kitchen and went to my room. I changed into my flannel pants and a tank top. I went through my closet to find something cute to lay out for tomorrow night. I decided to go with my short red dress and my red high heels. I layed my dress out on my chair and put my shoes under the chair. I sat down in front of my vanity and started plucking my eyesbrows. Christopher came barging into my room and I jumped, poking myself in the head with my tweezers. "Get out, jerk!" I shouted. He left slamming the door laughing. "BROTHERS!" I shouted.

10:09 PM
Christina said...
When I was done I put my face mask on. It had to dry and sit for a little while, so I walked back out to the kitchen. Christopher jumped out, and too my picture with the old poleroid.
"BUTTFACE!" I shouted, and ran after him. We were running all over the house, and I wals always inches away from catching him.
"HEY! You two! STOP NOW!" My mom shouted. We both stopped dead in our tracks laughing.
"You are so busted!" I told him.
"No, you are busted." He said.
"You are!"
"YOU ARE!"
"YOU BOTH ARE! Do I need to get the time out chair?? I still have it you know!" Mom shouted. We all started laughing.

10:25 PM
Sarah said...
"Christopher, make some ice tea." Mom said.
I sat down on the couch and turned on the TV. Christopher started laughing really hard. I turned around. He was holding up the picture he had just taken of me. Mom took it from him. "Hey!" He shouted.
"Make some ice tea!" She told him again.
"Okay, geez!" He said rudly.
Mom opened the trash can and threw away the picture. "Thanks, Momma!" I said.
She walked down the hall to her room. I heard her shut the door.

10:35 PM
Christina said...
"I'm getting you back!" I said to Christopher.
"I'll get you first." He said. Just then my dad walked in the door with the soda and a couple half gallons of Ice Cream.
"Root beer floats?" Christopher shouted.
"You got it!" My dad said, looking excited.
"You guys and your rootbeer floats!" I said.
"Hey, if I remember correctly, you hold the rootbeer float champion title." My dad said.
"No one has beat my 6 floats in one night?" I asked.
"Nope." My dad said.
"Untill tonight!" Christopher told me.
"Oh no! Come on kids! Last time all three of you were sick for two days!" My mom said, walking around the corner.

10:40 PM
Sarah said...
Mom picked up the phone. "I guess I'll order the pizza's early." She said walking down the hall. "I'm going to go wash my mask off." I said. I went to the bathroom and washed it off. I put my hair back down and went out to the living room.

11:02 PM
Christina said...
Everyone was sitting on the couch watching Jeopardy.
"Oh god! Jeopardy?" I asked.
"Hey, you used to be good at this." My dad said.
"Used to be?" I asked, and sat on the love seat.
"Yup, used to be!" He said, and I laughed. There was a phsycology catagory, and I got them all right.
"Glad to know the college we paid for is paying off." My mom said.
