The moving van pulled up outside her house and the men started loading up all their furniture. As the last of it was put in the van Kate went for one last look around her house. The living room where she and her twin Jake were born, the entrance hall where she took her first steps, her bedroom where she played for hours with her toys, her parents room where she rested in their bed whenever she was sick, the yard where she played with her brothers and neighbours for hours in the summer and the kitchen where she dropped the 'sharp' knife on her foot 2 years ago. After going to the hospital and getting 7 stitches she was banned from everything in the kitchen except the refrigerator. She looked down at her foot and saw the tiny scar still just visible.

"KATE!"

She was jolted from her memories by Matt (Matthew), her brother calling her.

"Kate, where are you, were ready to leave now."

"COMING!" she called as she ran to meet him at the front door.

"Ready to go?" he asked.

"I guess!"

They walked down the front steps and got in the car together. As they drove down the street Kate took one last look at Detroit, Michigan City, Indiana.

Driving down the highway Kate imagined what her new house would be like, her dad, Henry, had said it was bigger than their other house but it was a little older. She thought about her new house as she slowly drifted off to sleep.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

"Waaaaa?" Kate said as Doug's hand flew to her mouth.

"Guys I hope you didn't just wake your sister up!" her dad, Henry, called from the drivers seat.

"Nah dad, she woke up by herself!" replied Jake "didn't ya Katie!"

"Yeh!" she replied sleepily after getting 'say yes' looks from her brothers.

She looked around the car. Her mum and sister Brittany were sleeping and her brothers had sly grins on their faces.

"What's going on?" she whispered.

Matt and Jake pulled bubblegum from their mouths and grinned.

Kate flicked through her hair as she asked worriedly, "You didn't put any in mine, did you?"

"Nah, I wouldn't let them do that to you Katie!" Doug whispered.

"So what are you gunna do with it?"

Her brothers eyed her sleeping sister and grinned.

"ohhhhh! Don't she'll kill you!" Kate whispered back trying not to giggle.

"I got it covered!" Doug replied flexing his muscles.

As Matt guided the gum towards Brittany's hair she stirred and woke up. Looking straight at Matt's outstretched hand and the gum.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Her parents turned to look at her and saw the gum.

"Matthew Jeremy Todd, put that in your mouth right now!"

"But mom, it's lost its flavour!"

"Then give it here. Your sister's hair is not the place for gum."

"Ohhhhhh mom, spoil all our fun." Jake replied as Matt handed over the gum.

"You little…"

"Brittany language!" her father replied sternly from the front.

"But dad!" she exclaimed.

"Look. How about we stop for a rest and stretch our legs a bit ok."

"Yeah!" exclaimed the whole car, including his wife Amanda.
