From the first hour of waking up in her new home, Amy took note that Sarah liked to watch their older neighbor (he's like fifty ew ) work on his lawn, there was no way Lilly was going to be waking up to face reality anytime soon, and that Rex clearly loved Lilly more than her.Not wanting to disrupt her peeping tom of a sister or wake up Rex and Lilly, Amy got up from the bed that she shared with Lilly and tip toed her way out the door. Pocketing a small red and white box in her sweats as she shut the door.
She held her breath and listened for her parents breathing. Amy figured they were sleeping and made her way to the kitchen and out the back, to the woods, to have a smoke.
Breathing in with relief she looked around the thick forest and noticed a boulder cracked in half. Wondering how a boulder, twice her height, could be broken clean in half, she began to inspect it.
She sat on the half that lay down and found that it was the perfect place to smoke.
She smoked her first cigarete greedily, savoring her first alone time in weeks. Lilly was starting to get too clingy lately, and Amy knew she would have to do something about it- and quick. She started on her second cigarette and honed in on her other problematic sister. She would also have to do something about Sarah who was too desperate for male attention. If she let her out of her sight for just a second she knew she would be an aunt by the time she turned 18. Maybe she could find one of those chasity belts-
The sound of a twig snapping in the forest caused her to snap out of her thoughts and look around. Her heart was thumping loudly in her ears as she tried not to think about what could be out there.
Something brown flew though the woods causing her to screech and drop her cigarette.
"Fucking deer." Amy grumpled as she picked up her cigarette and put it out against the rock, deciding that the deer was her cue to stop smoking.
However, she most certainly was not going to stop her alone time over some stupid deer going the wrong way.
For the first thirteen years of Lilly's life, she had grown accostumed to going to sleep and waking up with her better half. The past year and a half without her had been a painful one, and Rex seemed to catch on. Rex was a brown cockapoo with thick curly hair. The dog was just small enough for Lilly to carry, but just big enough to smother her in her sleep.
That's just Rex's way of showing he loves you! Amy would say. Although true, Lilly was sure that Rex was trying to kill her.
Lilly managed to shove Rex off, causing him to wake and fuss over his favorite owner.
Sarah became a more of a cat person each time she saw Rex attack her sister with kisses and his atrocious breath.
Amy made sure all her siblings were dressed properly while her mother finished cooking up the lasagna. Amy had almost given up on trying to dress a squirming Ty, while carry Emily; but for once Sarah decided to be useful and managed to wrangle him into a shirt and pants.
"Sarah it's cold outside and there's gonna be more than just family at the gathering, so you better put a sweater or something to cover your boobs!"
"Yeah, they're practically falling out of your shirt." Lilly agreed. Sarah answered by rolling her eyes (putting Ty in Lilly's arms) before going to her room to change.
"Do we have to walk to Uncle Billy's house? 'Cuz if we do I'm not carrying Ty." Lilly whined.
"Come on Lils it's only, like, five houses down, plus mom and dad can carry Ty and Emily."
"Or! Dad can carry me."
"You do realize that you're fifteen, right?" Lilly only shrugs in response.
"Here take Ty, I'm gonna go with dad." and before Amy can even open her mouth to protest, she is carring two squirmy infants as her little sister runs away.
Amy had been right (she's always right Sarah and Lilly would grumble), their uncle Billy's house was only five houses down. The only problem was the houses in La Push always seemed to be too spaced out, and the girls were too damn lazy.
The last time the girls had seen their Uncle Billy and his kids, Ty had been only a few month, Emily hadn't even existed, and they had been attending a funeral; the whole Black family is doing their damn best to gloss over the details of the last time they saw each other. But its hard not to mention how much they all have changed since the last time they saw each other when there's a new baby to coo at, Lilly grew eight inches, and (their once scrawny) cousin looks like he's jacked up on steroids and all he does is lift weights (And babes! Jacob had added causing Lilly to gag).
"You guys are late!" Uncle Billy exclaimed as he sat Lilly on his lap and hugged his brother.
There was too many people to greet.
There was the Clearwaters; a mom, a daughter, and a son.
The Ateara's; a mother, a son, and a daughter(Ms Ateara's son is so checking you out Sarah had teased Amy).
The Uley's; a husband and a wife with a baby on the way(If you don't quit staring her husband is so gonna beat you Lilly had whispered to Sarah at one point).
The Camerons; a young wife and husband with a new born, and last was Embry Call, the man who had been at the gas station.
That's the only name that Lilly had remembered. Embry, a weird name for a weird(a compliment in Lilly's eyes) person.
