I have been wanting to write this story for a while. This first chapter isn't much but I think it's a good start. This is my second attempt at a multi chapter story and hopefully this will go better than my first. I really hope you guys like it!

Connor Stoll was bored beyond explanation. He had been babysitting his niece and nephew, Callista and Nicholas, and within half an hour they were both snuggled in their beds, fast asleep.

He turned on the T.V. Wife Swap was on. Connor enjoyed watching Wife Swap; the families were always paired with a family that is completely opposite of them. This episode was about a family that does everything and anything they can to stay safe, and a family of Dare-Devils. This episode should be fun, Connor thought with a smirk plastered on his face.

Halfway through the show Callie came in. She was wearing Minnie Mouse PJ's, her hair was all over her face, sticking up in every direction, and she had a line of dried drool on the left side of her face.

"Uncle Connor, what are you watching?" She asked while rubbing away the sleep from her eyes, which were the same color as Travis', light blue. He padded the seat beside him. She trudged toward him and landed on the couch with a thud.

"I'm watching Wife Swap!" He exclaimed happily. Suddenly Connor had one of the most genius ideas he ever had, a.k.a. One that probably won't blow up in his face, probably.

"Hey, Callie, how 'bout we send in an application so you guys can go on the show?" He asked excitedly, practically jumping up and down like a school girl. Callie's face lit up and she nodded enthusiastically. They ran to the table where Connor's laptop was at and went on the internet. Connor found the application and started to fill it out.

Connor filled out the rest of the application form and thought about the most fun part: Making the video! He could mimic Travis' voice perfectly and they had plenty of home videos that he could use. It was getting kind of late so Connor decided that it's time for Callie and him to go to bed. He could make the video in the morning.

The next morning

"Rise and shine!" Connor exclaimed while opening Callie's curtain, letting the morning sun stream in. She groaned and hid her face in her lime green sheets. Connor started shaking her. They had a video to make! Connor decided that the only was he was getting Callie out of bed is by using his secret weapon. He pulled out his touch screen Android phone and clicked on the air horn app. The media volume was turned up as high as it could go, He pressed the horn. Callie fell out of bed while covering her ears.

She glared at Connor and stomped to her closet, picking out a pair of jean short shorts, a green tank-top, and a brown cardigan with blue flowers on it. She slipped on a pair of old flip-flops and put a green headband on her light brown hair. She continued to glare at Connor as she ate her breakfast, which was honey nut cheerios cereal. Callie went to brush her teeth while Connor got Nick ready for the day.

Travis and Katie were gone for a whole week. At first Katie wasn't to happy with the idea of Connor taking care of her babies for a whole week but gave in after much pleading from Travis, why Travis would want Connor to babysit, we'll never know.

Connor grabbed the video camera from the cabinet after setting Nick down in his play pen. Callie came back down and mentally mapped out what they were going to put in the video. She wanted her mom's garden in it for sure; they were a very outdoors kind of family. Connor turned the camera on and filmed almost every inch of the house. He uploaded the video to his computer and cut and pasted from other home videos. There were some shots of Katie in the garden, Callie and Nick playing in the backyard, Travis acting silly, and Callie and her friends playing with Connor. After he decided that the video was convincing he put the application and the video in a big manila envelope and sent it to ABC. Now he'll just have to wait and see if they were accepted.

I have no idea if they do videos I just see that a lot in the Twilight versions of Wife Swap. If you've ever been in Wife Swap can you tell me some things that might happen that they don't show on TV? Please. If you have any advice or even if it's a flame please feel free to write it. I might be rewriting this chapter later on so you can point out any mistakes. I almost forgot! I used Amaryllis as Callie's middle name because I really love that name but I didn't want to "steal" it from Cap'NCupcake.
