Disclaimer: UGH! I thought I told you to go away! Fine I don't own the Partridge Family or anything associated with it there you happy?

Keith walked into Cathy's house and looked around. There was still a lot of boxes laying around then again, they just moved in. He saw a woman in the kitchen preparing dinner. Then Cathy spoke up.

"Mom this is who was at the door. His name is Keith Partridge and he is our next door neighbor"

Then the women turned around and faced him. She was wearing an apron on top of a light pink dress and white flats. She was holding a white wash cloth and was wiping the table. She put it down and wiped the sweat off of her forehead and walked up to him.

"Man with all that unpacking it sure does make you break out in a sweat!" She said

"Hi Keith, My name is Janice and I'm Cathy's mother and you have, of course met Cathy" She said nodding towards Cathy. Then she extended her hand towards him.

Keith toke her hand and shook it. "It's a pleasure to meet you.. What's your last name?" He asked

"Springsteen"

"Mrs. Springsteen" Keith finished.

"So Cathy are you going to San Pueblo High?" Keith asked.

Cathy nodded. "I'm starting there tomorrow I hope to see you there" She said.

Keith didn't know what to say. His mother had given him and his siblings the option to stay home tomorrow so they could have time to grieve and he planned on staying home.

"So Keith would you like to-"

Suddenly everything was interrupted when there was a knock at the door.

Cathy's mother opened it to reveal his mother.

"Keith I thought I told you just to deliver the cookies!"

"I'm sorry mom I met Cathy and she invited me in and I just felt that I couldn't say no" He replied

"Sorry to interrupt but I'm Janice Springsteen and this is my daughter Cathy" Janice said as she extended her hand.

"Hi I'm Shirley Partridge and I'm sure you all have met my oldest son Keith" Shirley said as she shook her hand.

"Oldest son? Do you have more then one child?" Janice asked.

Shirley nodded. "I have five"

"Five wow! That most be a ton of work"

"Yes it certainly is" Shirley replied

"Would you like to bring your family over for dinner? My husband should be home soon" Janice offered.

"Are you sure? That would be a lot of mouths to feed"

"No I'm fine with it"

"We would love to" Shirley said
