A/N: Hey, 'sup. The idea for this story just randomly popped into my head. I think I just got bored and it happened. I'm working on the next chapter of both The RP and FT, so don't worry. Alright, here we go.

Chapter 1

New Neighbors

"Mom," said a little three-year-old boy. "Do we have to meet the new neighbors?" Of course, being three, it did not exactly come out that clearly.

"Yes, Tommy," said the mother, Jean, "we do." Tom then opened his mouth to speak again, but his mother cut him off, "We do it because it's nice. Steve, can you get the tray, I'll carry Jake."

"Sure thing," said the father, Steve. He handed a small baby with brown eyes and a little tuft of brown hair to Jean. He then picked up a tray with cookies and lots of other sweet things on it. "Okay, let's go meet the new neighbors."

The family left, but not before Tom asked for a cookie.

"No, Thomas." His parents said in unison.


Ding-dong!

"I'll get it!" Yelled Peter, putting down the box he was holding.

"Okay!" said Eva, who was tending to their son, Marco.

Peter went to the door and opened it to reveal the family that lived next door.

"Hi," said Steve. "I'm Steve. This is my wife, Jean, and my sons, Tom and Jake." He said, pointing to each of them. "We came over to welcome you to the neighborhood."

"Uh, thanks," said Peter, "I'm Peter." He shook hands with Steve and Jean.

"Peter," Eva said walking into the room. "Who's there?"

"Oh, these are our neighbors, I guess. Um…Steve, Jean, Tom and Jake?" Peter said, uncertainly. The family nodded." Uh, this is my wife, Eva."

They all shook hands and Steve offered to help with anything. So, he and Peter left, with Tom so someone could watch him, to bring in some more boxes. Jean and Eva brought the cookies into the kitchen and began to talk. Jean left Jake in the living room with Marco.

Marco was building a tower out of some A-B-C blocks, and Jake just sat there, sucking on his fist and watching. Marco began to make the tower very tall and couldn't reach it, so he had to strain to reach the top. Because he was too small, he couldn't get the block to the top and the tower toppled over. Then, Marco began to cry.

Noticing something was wrong; Jake crawled over by Marco and picked up a block. He placed it in front of Marco, who started to cry a little less. Jake then put another block on top of the other. Marco then joined in and they began to build the tower back up. Jake, being slightly bigger than Marco, was able to get the last block on top. The two boys sat back and admired their work. They then began to giggle.

Jean and Eva came into the room to check on the small children. The two mothers smiled when they noticed the two laughing boys.

"Looks like someone has made a friend," said Eva.

Jake and Marco just continued to giggle.
