Chapter 1
Family
Meeting
"Family meeting in the living room! Family meeting in the living room! Family meeting in the living room!" dad shouts as he paces up and down the hallway, pounding on doors."
"We're coming. We're coming. Just calm down dad," shouts Ruthie as we run down the attic stairs.
"So are we," shout Sam and David as they come out of their room and into the hallway.
"Someone go get Lucy!" hollers dad.
"Lucy or Lucy, Kevin, and Savannah?" Ruthie shouts back.
"Just Lucy and hurry!" hollers dad louder now.
"We're going!" I scream as Ruthie and I race out the door.
Ruthie and I dash across the backyard and over the fence into Lucy's yard. Ding ding ding.
"Coming!" yells Kevin. We he gets to the door he hurls it open. "What is going on!" he asks confused.
"We need Lucy," Ruthie says, out of breath.
"And now!" I say also out of breath.
"Is someone dieing? Why won't you tell me what's going on?" Kevin asks still puzzled.
We rush past an utterly confused Kevin, and into the house.
"Luc Luc. Where are you? Hurry!" screams Ruthie
"I'm in here! What's going on?" replies Lucy.
"Family Meeting! Hurry!" I holler back.
"I'm coming. Just let me grab a couple things." answers Lucy.
"No Luc we have to go now!" Ruthie shrieks urgently.
"Alright, alright I'm coming" responds Lucy.
"Let's go Kevin!" Lucy shouts as we run out the door. Ruthie and I come to a skidding halt and look at each other, both of us trying to think of a nice way to say it, but we don't have time.
I nod at Ruthie and she says quickly, "Kevin can't come."
"Why not?" Lucy replies offended.
"I don't know. Dad said 'just Lucy'," I answer. Lucy crosses her arms really offended now.
So I didn't tell her very nicely, but so what we had to get back to the house and now. Gosh, why did Lucy have to be so stubborn? I thought.
"Come on Luc! Dad is going to have a cow!" Ruthie says impatiently.
"Let's go Kevin," Lucy says persistently.
"No Luc your dad just wanted you," Kevin replies just as persistently.
"Fine!" Lucy says angrily.
"Alright, let's go!" insists Ruthie.
Ruthie and I race across the yard and over the fence with Lucy lagging behind, still upset, but what could we do dad was going to be mad as it is, there was no time to stop and console her. We tore through the door and into the living room with Lucy still lagging behind and take a seat on the couch. Dad gives us a stern look, but hey it wasn't our fault. Then, Lucy comes in behind us fuming. Dad gives her a stern look too.
"Sorry it took us so long dad," Ruthie says.
"Yeah someone couldn't leave her husband." I add giving Lucy an evil look. Lucy rolls her eyes. Dad nods understandingly at me and Ruthie, but he is still upset that it took 15 minutes to get the whole family together for the meeting.
