Special thanks to Shannon for all her help... I couldn't have done it without you love :D
Enjoy!
The quaint little cottage stood overlooking the fields that surrounded it, which had turned a brilliant shade of crimson since the sun had begun to set. The last leaf of a magnificent sycamore fluttered down past the thatched roof, twirling in the autumn breeze and landed softly on its doorstep. Well, it would of landed on the doorstep if the hyperactive black labrador had not been in the way.
The leaf settled itself down on the animals nose, as light as the lightest of feathers.
Kiera however, (for that was this dogs name) did not care for its weight, or its purpose. She barked and snorted and rolled around anyway.
'What on Earth is going on? Kiera? What ever is the matter?' Said a loud, female voice. The door opened and there stood an attractive looking girl, her long, golden-blonde hair flowing down her back, with a look of concern on her face. She fiddled with her ear (as she so often did when she was nervous) while her beautiful blue eyes scanned the garden for trouble. She looked down at the grumbling pooch. 'Oh Kiera you silly thing, you really gave me a fright! I'm trying to watch Laurel and Hardy you know!' The dog looked up at her, a guilty look on its face. She looked down simultaneously and sighed 'Well never mind'. Picking the labrador up, she turned back to the open door.
'Siobhan!' Shouted a brisk, commanding voice, 'Tea's ready!'
'Okay mum!' Siobhan replied, then, setting Kiera down on the welcome mat, she rushed to join her sisters at the table.
As she stumbled in, almost falling over, Siobhans siblings observed her with mixed looks of interest, confusion and boredom.
The interest came from Emilese and Amerie, who where watchin Siobhan's entrance with delight, They loved a bit of excitement sprinkled over their tea. These two both had brown hair, however Amerie's was much darker shade, almost black. Emilese was the smaller one, although also the most fiery. Amerie was the tallest sister and the one that all the boys seemed to linger after, although she herself was in denial about that fact. Back to the mixed reactions, Addie was the sister who wore a look of confusion. But then again, little Addie always seemed to be permanently confused about everything and nothing. She had many strange habits (such as constantly dropping pens and beeping for no apperent reason) that led the general public to believe she was quite mad.
The two small, blonde, intelligent looking girls sat either side of Addie were Grace and Bethany. Both looked bored and tired, perhaps because they had been studying all day and as a result, could think of nothing but physics and chemistry at the present time. 'Nice to see you falling at our feet girl!' Amerie teased, looking at Siobhan and making no effort at all to hide her amusement.
'Oh shush you!' Retorted Siobhan, sliding into her chair as she did so.
'Great comeback sis... really amazing.' Smirked Emilese in a sarcastic, mocking tone.
'What is this, pick on Siobhan day?' Siobhan grumbled, frowning at her sisters.
'Be quiet girls!' Snapped their mother as Amerie was about to add something, and the girls fell silent, for they knew better than to anger her.
'So, where shall we go tomorrow?' Grace asked as they ate, 'We're supposed to be having lovely weather... according to the weather man!'
'Mmm the weather man...' Siobhan said dreamily, paying no further attention.
The rest of the sisters pondered the question for awhile, until- 'I KNOW!' yelled Addie, causing Amerie to tumble off her chair and Bethany to inhale half a glass of lemonade up her nose. 'The fair!' She cried triumphantly.
'Owch... yes... fair...good one...' Grimaced Amerie as she got steadily to her feet, rubbing her bottom as she did. 'What do you think Beth?'
Bethany responded with a loud splutter.
'Fair enough then' Laughed Grace, Helping her.
'Then it's settled then!' Addie exclaimed- 'I wonder what we'll find there?' Siobhan looked flustered at this question.
'Hmm i'm not sure... Oh I know, Rides! Duuh! Honestly Addie, You're so dumb sometimes!'
Addie faked a look of horror 'That's a horrible thing to say!' She protested, then laughed heartily with the others.
