The Overwatch Family
Chapter 1: What Caused The Waffle House Fiasco? Part One
It was a lovely day in California, USA. The sun was shining, sky crystal blue, and a family covered head to toe in sticky syrup was entering their newly bought house. The kids entered first while the adults followed close behind. When everyone one was inside, the kids stood at one side while the adults stood on the other arms crossed and angry. Jack cleared his voice. "Kids." "Yes?" "I… WE are all VERY disappointed in you guys. Do you have anything to say?" The kids are looked at each other then said something under their breath. "Say again but louder." "we're sorry." "LOUDER!" "WE'RE SORRY!" "Ok good. Now… can someone please explain how this happened?" The kids thought to themselves."I can." answered Lucio. "Ok. Lucio what happened?" "Well it started when we got into the cars…"
53 MINUTES AGO…
48 MINUTES UNTIL INCIDENT. All of the kids piled into the SUV with Grandma and Grandpa. Jack and Gabe got into another while Mercy and Torb got into the last one. Then they drove off to the Waffle House. The Lena and Jesse were arguing with each other. "Please. I've eaten enough waffles to last breakfast, lunch, dinner, AND dessert." "With my chronal accelerator I can eat as fast as you and FASTER." "That's cheating!" "Nope. It's fair cuz it's a part of me." Lucio and were just on their phones. Lucio was listening to music while was on CameraTalk ™ . Fareeha was just reading about birds. Reinhardt sighed."Kids these days. Always on their electronics. And listening to their POP music." Ana was writing in a journal she had. She stroked Reinhardt's arm."Well they're kids. Just let them be." "Nonsense! They should try listening to classical music. It's proper music." Lucio looked up."I cannot even take you seriously right now."... Jack and Gabe were driving when Jack sighed."What am I going to do?" "What do you mean?" "It's just, they're all teenagers now! It's harder to take care of them because of their mindsets alone. Now we have 5 teens to take care of!" "Jack listen to me.
We'll be fine. We're lucky that they all are teens because that means they can actually take care of themselves. And it means more severe consequences when they cause trouble. How's that sound?" Jack thought."Heh. It also means they'll go to college in just a few years." "Yep. Then WE'LL be ALONE for 4-8 years." Gabe said slyly. Right on cue(as if all the Reaper76 shippers forced the universe to make this happen) "Careless Whispers" by George Michael started to play on the radio. Gabe leaned in. Jack blushed, smiled, then started to lean in. As the space between them started to close, both of their adrenaline levels were starting to rise. Just as they were about to touch lips, they heard a flash. Gabe turned to look outside his window and saw that that the kids were intently watching from inside the other car. Hana rolled down the window and the kids chanted,"KISS! KISS! KISS!" Jack got flustered and turned away. He stepped on the gas and left the other car behind…
45 MINUTES UNTIL INCIDENT. Everyone pulled into the Waffle House. The kids got out and whispered among themselves after what they just saw. Jack looked at them and the kids looked back at him momentarily. They all just giggled as Jack took deep breaths. Gabe laid his hand on Jack's shoulder. "Don't mind them. We'll get another time." Angela and Torb pulled up then got out. "Everyone ready now?" asked Jack. "Yes." said everyone else. "Okay good. Because I'm starving." Then everyone entered the Waffle House with their empty growling stomachs.
