A/N: I own nothing besides my OC's. This will be five chapters at minimum.

Rachel Harper-Kingston was a widow in her early 40's with 7 children. Dani Kingston(age 16) is her oldest, then there's Dylan Kingston(age 15), Mikki Kingston(age 14), and Jenny Kingston(age 13). And there's her identical twins; Ella Kingston and Lauren Kingston(both age 7), then there's Zachary Kingston(age 6), and finally Nicholas Kingston(age 5). The Baker's(that are gonna be in this story) ages are as follows: Sarah Baker(age 14), Jake Baker(age 13), Jessica and Kim Baker(will be age 12 in this story), Mike(will be age 8 in this story), Kyle and Nigel(will be age 6 in this story)

"Wake up" Dani demanded.

"No.." Nicholas protested, rolling over.

Mikki laughed, walking into his room.

"You don't seriously think he's going to wake up that way do you?"

"Stay out of this Mikki"

"I'm trying to help you" Mikki walked over to Nicholas and grabbed him by the hair and pulled him up.

"Oww.." Nicholas cried. "Let me go"

"Get up, get dressed, and come on so we can take you to school"

"Fine" Nicholas ran off.

Mikki and Dani observed each other, warily. They may be sisters, but Dani thinks Mikki likes to show off and it's annoying. She was glad though that Nicholas didn't have insomia. But if anything, once you get him all comfy and nice, and he falls asleep. He gets cranky at times for being woken up.

"You should've just jumped water on his frickin head" Mikki taunted.

"Hush" Dani walked out.

Mikki hated the fact that Dani got the last word in.. for now. Mikki went into the hall and bumped into Ella.

"Sorry hun" Mikki apologized.

"You messed up my tower" Ella said with tears forming in her eyes.

"I'll fix it" Mikki promised.

"Thanks.." Ella ran off.

Mikki then went into the kitchen where her mother, Rachel was making eggs. Mikki sighed, grabbing some bread from the cabinet and making some toast. Dani arrived to help and added some more butter. Dylan helped with the lunchboxes, and Ella and Lauren stirred the pancake mix. Nicholas and Zachary grabbed the utensils(besides the knives) and put them on the table.

"You cut me.." Zachary accused.

"There isn't any blood" Nicholas replied.

"You held the fork the wrong way" Ella commented.

"Come here Zachary" Rachel called. She cleaned his wound and put bandage on it.

"He doesn't bleed!" Nicholas screamed, running behind Lauren.

"Calm yourself" Lauren patted him lightly.

Dylan, Dani, and Mikki were all holding in laughter as they continued to prepare breakfast's and lunches. Rachel walked over to Nicholas.

"There's no reason to be afraid sweety" Rachel soothed.

"I aint scared" Nicholas came out from his hiding place behind Lauren.

"Liar" Ella rolled her eyes.

"Ella, it's not polite to call someone a liar" Rachel scolded.

"Mommy.." Ella protested.

"Apologize to your brother" Rachel demanded.

"Sorry Nicholas" Ella told him without a hint of emotion in her voice.

"We need to eat fast or we're gonna be late for school" Dani informed them all.

"Ok!" Ella and Lauren scrambled to get the plates.

Dylan and Dani put the eggs, toast, and pancakes on them. Nicholas and Zachary got to squirt the syrup. Jenny grabbed some glasses and filled them with some orange juice. Then they all sat down at the table and started eating and making small-talk. After finishing their food, they put the dishes in the sink and grabbed their backpacks.

"Bye mom" Dani said as she, Dylan, Mikki, and Jenny headed to their schoolbus.

They attended a school that let in grades 6-12. Ella, Nicholas, Lauren, and Zachary attended an elementary school near there. After they got to the school, Dylan, Dani, Mikki, and Jenny headed off to their respective classes.

"Get out of my seat" Sarah grabbed the handles of the desk and turned it over so the boy toppled over with it.

"That'll be one detention Ms. Baker" Ms. Rivera said.

"Whatever" Sarah scoffed and pushed the boy sideways and sat at her desk.

"Ms. Kingston, you're ten minutes late" Ms. Rivera scolded as Mikki walked into the class.

"Blame the damn bus" Mikki walked over to her desk and removed her backpack.

"What was that Ms. Kingston?" Ms. Rivera raised one eyebrow.

"Nothing" Mikki said innocently.

Sarah was amused. "The bus was really late?"

"Nope" Mikki smirked. "I just didn't want an open seat at the front of the class. You know how she's usually makes us sit in front if there's any empty seats left. So i purposely came late"

"Awesome" Sarah grinned.

"I know what'll really tick her off" Mikki gloated, grabbing a spitball.

"Spitball?" Sarah rolled her eyes.

"It aint overrated" Mikki tossed the spitball at Ms. Rivera's unsuspecting head.

Ms. Rivera turned around.. and Mikki and Sarah waited to see her reaction..
