Author's note- I was cleaning out my desk drawer and I found this story I wrote in the summer of 2001. It's only three chapters because it was one of my very first stories.
ALL ABOUT LANNY
Chapter 1- Silent Lanny and Gifts
Matt was on the computer. He saw Lanny online, so he instant e-mailed him.
Mattman: Hey Lanny what's up?
Lannlee: Well my birthday is this Saturday.
Mattman: It is? What time? Where?
Lannlee: 2:30pm and at the Digital Bean.
Mattman: Okay. But what do you want for your birthday?
Lannlee: Well I want: Poke'mon cards. Simon and Milo CD. A spy kit.
Mattman: Which one do you like the most?
Lannlee: Poke'mon cards!
Mattman: Okay I will try to get that, but if I can't I'll get you something else.
Lannlee: Okay. Anything from my best friend will be cool.
Lizzie walks in Matt's room.
Lizzie: Matt time for dinner.
Matt: In a minute, I'm talking to Lanny.
Lizzie: Lanny huh? I was wondering why Lanny doesn't talk. Do you know why Matt?
Matt: I don't know, but I'll ask him that.
Mattman: Lanny, my sister wants to know why you don't talk? Did you use to?
Lannlee: I don't know. But I used to in second grade.
Mattman: Lanny, I wish one day I can hear you talk. But I really want to hear you at your birthday on Saturday.
Lannlee: Well, Matt maybe I will just because you're my friend.
Mattman: Yeah! You're my friend too, and we always be there for each other. Right Lanny?
Lannlee: Right! Though thick and thin.
Mattman: Well Lanny talk to you later. I gotta eat dinner. Peace- Outie.
Lannlee: Okay bye.
The IM door shuts
At dinner:
Matt: Sorry I'm late for dinner. I was talkin' to Lanny online.
Jo: That's okay. What did lanny have to say?
Matt: Well his birthday is this Saturday.
Jo: You mean tomorrow?
Matt: It's tomorrow? I thought today was Thursday not Friday. Mom can I have a ride to Toy'R'us, so I can get Lanny's gift.
Jo: Sure. What does Lanny want?
Matt: Poke'mon cards.
Jo: Okay, let me get my purse and go.
Matt: What about Lizzie? And where's dad? I never saw him tonight.
Jo: Your dad is working overtime. And Lizzie are you going?
Lizzie: No, because my favorite show is on tonight.
Jo: Okay bye.
Lizzie: Bye.
End of chapter 1
CHAPTER 2—TOYS, TOYS, AND TOYS
Matt: Whoa! Look at all the toys. I cannot find the Poke'mon cards in this store.
Jo: Well, let's go ask someone to tell us where they are?
Matt: Okay.
At the front desk
Jo: Hi do you know where the Poke'mon cards are?
Counter Dude: Yeah, I do. They're in lane 8.
Jo: Thanks, for helping.
In lane 8-
Matt: Hey mom can I get 10 packs of cards for Lanny?
Jo: Sure. Let's pay for them.
In the check out line
Counter Dude: I see you found what you were looking for. And you seem to like Poke'mon a lot.
Matt: Yeah, I do, but these aren't for me. These are for my friend Lanny Oasis. (I don't know how to spell his last name)
Counter Dude: Did you say Lanny? He's my cousin.
Matt: He is? What is your name? And do you know why he don't talk?
Counter Dude: Yeah I am. My name is Simon. And I don't know why he doesn't talk. He's just shy.
Matt: Well, he said he might talk at his birthday party tomorrow.
Simon: Well I hope he will. And your total is $32.35.
Jo gives him the money.
Matt: Bye Simon, see you.
Simon (Waving): Bye.
They are at home
Matt: Mom I'm going to wrap Lanny's gift.
Jo: Okay, let me help you.
They wrapped the gift and Matt said....
Matt: It's missing something.
Jo: A bow?
Matt: No...I know a card!
Jo: You can make the card on the computer.
Matt: Okay.
On the computer, making the card
When Matt finished the card, he printed it out and then he ran to his mom.
Matt: Mom I'm finished!
Jo: That's great! What does it say?
Matt: I can't tell you yet. I want Lanny to read it!
Jo: Well, Matt it's 9:30, you've have to go to bed.
Matt: Okay I will, because Lanny said he'll talk at his birthday tomorrow!
Jo: Well, I hope he does. Good night.
Matt: Night Mom, dad, Lizzie.
The end of chapter 2.
CHAPTER 3—QUIET PARTY TIME?
Matt: Oh no! It's 2:30. Mom can I have a ride to the Digital Bean?
Jo: Yeah, what for?
Matt: Lanny's birthday. Duh!
Jo: Okay, I'll go with you.
Matt: But, what about Lizzie and dad?
Jo: Your dad's has errands to do for his boss. And I'll ask Lizzie, if she's going?
Matt: Okay.
Jo: Lizzie, are you going to Lanny's birthday party?
Lizzie: Sure, why not. It will be fun.
At the party
Lanny's mom: Okay, time to light the candles!
Lanny's dad: Happy birthday Lanny!
Lizzie: Happy birthday to you...
Jo: And many more...
Matt: Until your 184!
Lanny blows out the candles
After they ate cake, he opens his presents
Lanny's mom: Now, time to open the presents!
Lanny jumped up and down.
Matt: Here Lanny, open my present first 'cause it is something special!
Lanny unwraps the present........................
Lanny: Wow! Just what I wanted! Thanks Matt, you're my best friend ever!
Everybody just stared at Lanny.
Lanny: What? Oh, my gosh! Do I have cake on my face?
Matt: No it's not that. It's just you've just talked!
Lanny: I did? Wow!
Matt: Yeah, this is so cool! You've just talked! And here's my card. I made it. Read it.
Lanny reads the card.
Lanny: Til' the end I will be with you, we will go where our dreams come true, all the times that we have been though, you will always be my best friend.
Matt: Well, did you like it?
Lanny: Yeah, I did. Thanks Matt! You will always be my best friend too!
Matt: Yeah, I'm glad I have a friend like you!
The end!
Author's note- If you read my other stories, you'll probably know the difference in my writing. If you know what I mean? I know it went a little too fast, but like I said before it's one of my very first stories.
