Thanks for the reviews guys. Here's chapter 2!
"TASHA!" we all scream. In less than a minute she comes sprinting down the stairs.
"WHAT?" she answers. She then makes a surprised face. "Oh no." she rushed over to the oven. "Did I forget to put the timer on?" We nod. "Everyone back away from the oven." We did as we were told. Tasha put on her oven mittens and carefully pulled the turkey out of the oven and placed it on top of the stove. The turkey was completely black. There is no way we can eat that.
"Great" Adam blurted out, "Now dinner is ruined."
"Mom" Leo cried, "What were you thinking?"
"Sorry guys" Tasha said, "I must have been so busy thinking of getting ready for the party that I forgot all about it."
"Well" Chase suggested, "You can make it again at midnight when you get back."
"I guess I'll have to." She then turns to the stairs. "DONALD! Are you ready to go?!"
"Coming sweetie" Davenport tells her as he walks down the stairs, "I still don't want to go to this stupid party. The only people that are going to be there are those snobby rich uppity couples who talk about how much money they have all the time." Tasha rolls her eyes.
"Well we're leaving now" she tells us, "Just make sure to have all of the decorations put up ok?"
"Ok Tasha" Chase answers, "We can do that."
"And behave" Mr. Davenport warns, "No mischief while we're gone. The worst thing that could happen is for someone to get hurt and they would have to spend Christmas in the hospital."
"Don't worry" Adam encouraged, "No one's going to get hurt ok?" Mr. Davenport nods.
"Alright then. We'll see you guys at 10:30 then. Bye." With that they both leave. As soon as they drive away, Adam goes crazy.
"Yes!" he screams, "We're home alone! Party!" He starts jumping around.
"Adam!" Leo exclaims, "Did you not just hear what Big D said? No mischief."
"I told him no one would get hurt." Adam explained, "I never said that we wouldn't be mischievous." He starts bouncing around again. He was starting to mess up all of the decorations.
"Adam" I shout, "Cut it out! You're ruining all of the decorations." But of course, he wasn't paying attention…..again!
"Woohoo!" Adam cheered, "Party! Party! Party!" Leo turned to Chase.
"Chase do something!" Leo told him.
"Leo" Chase replied, "Do you really think I can stop him?!"
"No, but everyone has at least tried to stop him, so you should too."
"That doesn't even make any sense!" They started bickering. I walk up to both of them.
"Cut it out you two!" I tell them, "Someone just do something before we're all grounded and no one gets any presents for Christmas!"
"Fine!" Chase shouted. He walked over to Adam, "Adam stop! You're jumping on top of all of the decorations!"
"What was that Chase?" Adam playfully asked, "You want me to pick you up and throw you across the room?" Chase shakes his head.
"No! NO!" Adam lifted Chase off of the floor. "Adam put me down!"
"Hey" Leo said to me, "This is starting to get pretty interesting, let me get some popcorn." I punched him in the rib cage. "Oww Bree!"
"Shut it!" I harshly tell him, "Oh why don't I have a sister?!" Adam roughly throws Chase up in the air and catches him.
"Adam!" Chase cries struggling to get unattached to Adam, "Let go of me!"
"Whatever you say Chase…." Adam whispers. He then roughly throws Chase right next to the Christmas tree. Chase groaned.
"Ouch" Leo blurted out, "That looked like it hurt." I nod in agreement.
"Sorry Chase" Adam apologized, "I shouldn't be so rowdy right now. Here I'll help you up."
"I don't need your help" Chase said struggling to get up.
"Chase" I tell him, "I think you do."
"Really Chase" Adam started walking towards him, "Let me help." Adam wasn't looking where he was going and he tripped over a decoration he had dropped on the floor. He fell onto our Christmas tree, making the tree fall right on top of Chase! Adam was lying right on the top of the tree, making the pressure being put on Chase even more!
"Chase!" I scream as I run over to the tree, "Adam get up! Chase is underneath the tree!" Adam immediately got up. I started to tug at the tree.
"Aren't you guys going to help me?!" I cry out to Adam and Leo. They nod and in silence we pull the big Christmas tree off of Chase. I hope he's alright. Our tree's double the size of an average Christmas tree and there are hard decorations on it too, plus Adam landed on top of him too. We finally got the tree back up and we stared down at an in pain Chase.
"Chase" Adam said kneeling down to him, "Are you okay?" Chase shook his head and continued to roll around in pain.
"Adam, take him to the couch" I order. Adam scoops up Chase carelessly. "CAREFULLY CARRY HIM!" Adam then carefully carried Chase to the couch. I kneel down beside him.
"Chase" I softly say, "How many fingers am I holding up?" I lift up three fingers. He looks dazedly at me.
"Uhh…." He starts, "Two….no! Two and a half oww" He grabs his rib cage.
"What hurts?"
"Everything." I rub his back as I look around. The tree and decorations are ruined!
"Mom and Big D are going to kill us!" Leo exclaimed.
"Thanks a lot Adam" I tell him, "You messed up the decorations, hurt Chase, what's next?"
"Hey it wasn't my fault!" Adam replied. "I-" There was a knock on the door.
"Guys" I hear Mr. Davenport say, "Can you open up the door? I can't find my house key."
"Oh no" Adam whispered, "What are we gonna do?" Chase groans in pain. "Shhh Chase! Davenport will hear us!"
"Wow" Chase replied, "Yeah just go ahead and tell someone who just got crushed by a tree to shut up!"
"Both of you be quiet!" I harshly whisper, "Ok we need to figure out what we're going to do!" We all sat there for a minute while hearing Mr. Davenport knock on the door. Suddenly, Leo thought of something.
"I have an idea" Leo said slowly.
