1 Alex and His Love Life
Disclaimer: Alex and other Mummy character don't belong to me but Emily and john are pigments of my imagination
Alex looked at the boat and sighed. He hoped that this time, their family vacation went as planed. Alex was 19, his sister Carly, was almost 7. This was her first real vacation. Their parents, Rick and Evie O'Connell, had decided they could all use a break from chasing mummies that were trying to rule the world. Alex quite agreed.
Where else would this family go on vacation then to Egypt, to visit a family friend. Ardeth Bay. This time wasn't urgent. It was going to be fun. If all went to plan.
Alex noticed a man trying to get a piece of luggage on board. He looked like he needed help. Granted, this did look like a two man job.
"Excuse me," said Alex to the man, "do you need some help?"
"Yes, thank you," said the man.
Together they got the luggage on board and set it down.
"Whew," said the man. "My name is John Huellger. Thank you so much…um…"
"Alex O'Connell."
"Alex." He paused. Then, "did you say O'Connell?"
"Yes."
"Is your father by any chance named Rick?"
"Rick O'Connell, yes that's my father. Do you know him?"
"A little."
"A little? You mean a lot!" joked Rick O'Connell coming up behind John.
"Rick O'Connell! You look the exact same!"
"John Huellger! So do you!" Rick and John shook hands. "I see you've already met my boy, Alex."
"Yes, I did. Quite the nice one," said John.
"He gets it from me," said Rick. Alex laughed at that. He had heard the stories about his mum and dad before they got married. "Think that's funny do you?" said Rick. "Well be glad you got my looks too."
"Yeah, dad, that's all I need in life," said Alex sarcastically.
"What's going on here?" asked Alex's mum, Evie.
"Ah, Evie my dear!" said Rick. "Come meet my friend from back in the days, John Huellger."
John took Evie's hand. "A pleasure to meet you madam."
"And you," said Evie.
"And whose this little one?" asked John noticing Carly.
"That's our youngest, Carly," said Rick.
"I see you've been keeping busy Rick," joked John.
"So what about you Mr. Huellger? Do you also have a family?" asked Evie.
"As a matter of fact, here comes my family now," said John pointing.
Alex saw a girl about his age walking toward them. From what he could tell at a distance, she was quite beautiful. As she got closer, Alex saw that he was right. He got a strange giddy feeling all of a sudden.
"This is my little girl, who's not so young anymore considering she's 18," said John. "Everyone, this is my daughter, Emily. Emily, this is my old friend Rick O'Connell, his wife Evie, their youngest, Carly, and their oldest, Alex."
"Hello," said Emily.
"Hi, Emily," said Evie shaking her hand.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Emily," said Alex, also shaking her hand.
"Isn't he a nice young man, Em, dear?" asked John to Emily.
"Yes, father, he is. I bet he doesn't get it from his father, though," said Emily. Alex, Evie, and John all laughed at that, but Rick looked confused. "I've heard the stories," Emily explained.
Rick looked at John, who gave him a sheepish grin. "Well, she was curious about my life. I was all she had when her mother died."
"Oh dear! I'm terribly sorry!" exclaimed Evie.
"It's alright," said Emily, "She went peacefully. I knew her for a good eleven years."
"Well, look at us here!" said Rick. "Standing around like we haven't got anything better to do! Let's all go sit and talk or do something shall we."
They all agreed and went to find some chairs and space on the boat.
