The room was jet-black dark. Nothing on the walls could be seen, only their outline. The only sound that was making anything in the room was the light snoring coming from the bed. It's occupant was fast asleep, and for now he could relax as long as he wanted, if he wasn't sleeping on a school day.
The door opened up reveal a dreadlocked man standing in the doorway, the light flooding into the room.
"Come on Danny, time to wake up. First day of school," he said. The occupant of the bed groaned and put the covers over his head, trying to ignore his father. The father shook his head and the stone from the walls flew into the bed and began to shake the occupant.
"Okay, okay I'm up," he yelled hurriedly to his dad. He got out of bed and turned his light on, revealing the two men.
This was Daniel "Danny" Stone Jr., third son of Daniel "Danny" Stone Sr. He was named by his mom when she gave birth to him, and Danny, his father, had liked the name anyway. Actually he was pretty fine with whatever name Katie tried with. He was just like his two older siblings. His skin tone matched theirs, which was a mix of Danny and Katie's, and his hair was tied into dreadlocks, the black hair flecked with a little bit of blonde hair from his mom. The only thing separating him from his brother were his eyes, which were bright green like his grandmothers. He was skinny, but he he worked out and he had a little bit of muscles in his arms, torso, legs, and belly. He was also very fast, having been on the track team since the sixth grade. Now he was abot to enter the tenth grade, right now still fifteen years old, while Gerald and June were seventeen.
"Danny, we have to get past this," said his father.
"I know, but sleep feels too good," said Danny. His father laughed.
"Well anyway get ready for school. You better hurry before your sister beats you to the bathroom," said Danny. He walked away down to the kitchen, making Danny, his son, scramble for his clothes. His sister was notorious in the house for taking too long in the bathroom to do her hair and everything else girls did. His brother Gerald was fast, but June would be in a bathrrom all day if she wanted to. Thier house had only two bathrooms, and right now he could hear his mom in the other one upstairs.
His clothes thrown on, an all-black t-shirt and a pair of jeans, he cautiously looked out. His room and June's were down the hall from each other, and the bathroom was in between both of them, serving somewhat as neutral ground. Danny snuck over towards the door, not wanting to alert his sister. However, just as he stuck a foot out, his sister came out, wearing a tanktop and night pants.
This was June, his older sister. She was a sweet, all around nice girl. Her skin was the same tone as Danny and Gerald, her black hair flecked with blond flowing down to the middle of her back in curls. She was very much like her mother in everyway: beauty, looks and charm. She did inherit Danny's sarcastic nature, and his brown eyes. Her one flaw with her brothers was being a bathroom hog, but besides that she and her brothers always got along, mostly.
She saw Danny near his room, and a showdown moment passed between them. They knew only one of them was going to make it to the bathroom, and if one moved the other did too.
They stared each other down, their legs ready to move in a millisecond.
Finally, they took off. Danny was the faster and he was about to reach the door, but his sister blew a gust of wind that sent him back. Just as he hand touched the doorknob, a chunk from the wall pinned her to the opposite wall.
"Danny, you're so dead," she said to him. Triumphant, Danny just smiled and waved.
"I won't be long sis, just need to brush my teeth," he said. He went in and began brushing his teeth, but only for a minute, brushing vigorously. He exited the bathroom and let his sister out of the trap.
"Now was that so hard?" said Danny. His sister rolled her, smiling, and went into the bathroom. She'd be in there for the next thrity minutes for all he cared. They leave for school in about an hour anyway.
Nothing else to do, Danny went to the kitchen to get some breakfast. Along the way he passed his older brother, Gearld. Gerald was tall, his hair in dreadlocks the same as his brother. He was a born rebel, a thing he took for almost everything. He had inherited his dad's looks, just like his brother, but also his misceivous nature. He was well-known at his school, and he got any girl he wanted, however each relationship barely made it past the second week with his tendency to break up with them to not be held down by anyone.
"Hey bro. June's in the bathroom?" said Gerald. Danny nodded.
"Damnit. Ah well, I guess I can wait for mom to finish," he said. He walked back upstairs, leaving his brother alone. Thankfully he didn't wait long because his mom came down the stairs, wearing heels, a jean skrit, and a spaghetti-strapped brown shirt. She was a writer, her looks barely changing since our previous story, except she was a little taller now and her body had matured more.
"Good morning Jr.," she said to Danny. She was the only person in the house who called Danny Jr. Danny didn't have a problem with this, but it could be embarassing if his friends were around, which thankfully they weren't.
"Morning mom," said Danny. His mom went into the kitchen, and just as he was about to go in, Danny forgot his backpack. He always carried his backpack around with him everywhere, except in the bathroom, and he didn't want to forget it because that's where he carried his weapons. His sword was transformed into a pencil, his spear a pen, and his shield was on his wristband, very much like his dad's except his wristband was all black. He went back to his room to get it, knwoing the consequences if he forgot it.
In the bathroom, Danny was had finished breakfast and was about to sit down at his table when his wife came in with her outift, which made his mouth water. She noticed this and came up very close to him.
"So how do you like it?" she said.
"How much time do we have?" he asked her, his eyes starting to turn to what looked like insatiable hunger.
"I just passed Jr., so I think we have five minutes tops," she said. Danny grabbed her by the butt and placed her on top of the counter. She giggled before their lips met, passionately kissing each other. Her tongue brushed his lips and he opened up to let her access his regions in his mouth. His hand were wrapped around her waist and hers were wrapped around his neck. Their hips touching and chests firmly on the other, they were lost in the heat of the moment, except when Danny came in from getting his backpack.
Seeing his mom and dad making out is something every child doesn't want to see.
"Mom? Dad? Get a room," said Danny, disgusted.
"It was so much easier when they were little," Danny said to Katie, the two still flustered from their encounter. Danny helped her off the counter.
"So honey, what are your dressed for?" said Danny.
"Me and Michelle are going to the mall. Our book got published yesterday," she said. Danny smiled, and while Jr. was looking away, he gave her a heated kiss that made her heart flutter and her eyes see hearts all over the place.
"I'm really happy for you and her. So I guess you're probably getting something nice?" he said.
"Yes, for both of us," she said. Danny's eyes traveled over her body.
"I don't know, that outfit is looking too nice, but I think it's better off," he said, whispering the last part so that Jr. couldn't hear. She blushed slightly and gave him a quick kiss on the lips before she settled down at the table where Danny was.
"So Jr., you ready for school?" said Katie.
"Yes mom," said Danny. At that moment, June walked in wearing a blue blouse and jeans. Her brown eyes shone brighter and her skin looked shiny.
"Wow, I thought I'd never see the day when you were out of the bathroom in five minutes," Danny said to his sister.
"Shut up," said June. Gerald came in with a red muscle shirt and black camo pants.
"Wow, you're early sis," said Gerald.
"You two suck," she said, sitting down at the table. She seemed to be more cheerful than she usually was.
"June, are you okay?" said Danny Jr.
"Yes, why?" said June.
"Well you're very happy now, and me and Gerald both know you're like this when a new album has come out, a new clothes line, or a new boyfriend," said Danny.
"Yeah, so what's his name?" said Gerald.
June blushed slightly. "You know him. He's an old friend of ours.
"Wow, how many of those do we know of," said Gerald. Something all three of them inherited was Danny's sarcastic nature.
"So who is he?"
"That's all I'm telling you two," said June. After eating their breakfast the three Stone children bid their parents goodbye and went outside down the street to the bus stop. Katie exited the house ten mintues after they did.
"Have a nice day at work honey," she said to Danny, smacking him in the ass when she left. He gave her the "You're so gonna get it tonight" look as she left, her giving the "I hope you can handle it" look. And so starts our story.
