Well, my birthday is coming up (tomorrow to be exact) and what better way to spend it other than doing what I love? Writing stories for you guys!
The Perfect Moment
"…Ahh!"
Alvin rushed into the bathroom where the scream came from. "…Ellie? Are you alright?" His jaw dropped at the sight of Eleanor with pink hair.
Eleanor's face was flushed with red as she fumed. "Alex, put pink hair dye in my shampoo!" She threw the bottle into the sink and stomped into the bedroom.
Alvin held back laughter and followed her into the room where Alex was "innocently" coloring. "Are you sure you didn't just… use it wrong?"
Eleanor glared at him. "How do you use shampoo wrong, Alvin?"
He shrugged. "Well, I don't know…"
She stomped over to her suitcase and began angrily throwing her clothes into it. "I've had it Alvin. Either that brat goes, or I do."
Alex's jaw dropped. "Go?"
"Go where?"
"…Somewhere far away, like a boarding school in Georgia!" Eleanor placed her hands on her hips and her glare was then directed towards Alex.
Alex's eyes were as big as saucers. "Daddy, do something!" She whined. "She can't send me to Georgia!"
"She's right, Ellie… Georgia isn't far enough."
"What!?" Alex screeched. Her eyes darted from Alvin to Eleanor who attempted to hide their laughter. "Wait…" Her eyes squinted in thought. "You're lying!" She pointed her pink crayon accusingly at them. At that moment Alvin and Eleanor burst into laughter. Alex glared at the two of them. "I can't believe you two… pulling a prank like that on a little girl."
Their laughter began to filter.
"Well," Alex stood and collected her coloring materials. "I'm too much of a lady to engage in this kind of immature and frankly juvenile behavior." Alex gracefully exited the bedroom with her head held high.
Alvin raised their brows in amusement. They turned their attention back to Alex as she re-entered the room. "But as sure as your blood pumps through my veins, I will get you back." She glared at Alvin as she slowly backed out of the room and shutting the door after her. They glance at each other again. Alvin opened his mouth to speak but was cut off by the sound of Alex entering the room again.
"Welcome to the family, Ellie." She said exiting the room one final time.
Eleanor giggled and Alvin crossed the room, pulling her into a hug.

Alex skipped into the living area of the suit enjoying the sight of her pink dress moving with her. She twirled a few times before falling onto the couch with a giggle. She sat up and grabbed the phone. She hit three numbers and held the phone to her ear.
She heard it ring a few time before Brittany answered. "Hi mommy…!" She greeted sweetly.
"Uh… hey, sweetheart..." She heard her mother giggle and someone else chuckle in the background. "Listen, now isn't really a good time…" She laughed.
Ale raised her brow. Sometimes adults could be so weird. "Okay, I guess you don't want to hear about Auntie Netta." She shrugged.
Brittany's laughter immediately came to a halt. "What about Auntie Netta?" She asked her voice coated with concern.
"Oh, it's nothing to get worried about." Alex shook her head. "But since you're busy I'll talk to you later."
"Alexis!"
"Bye, bye." Alex quickly hung up the phone and giggled.

"They're late…" Theodore mumbled looking at his watch. "The irony is that they're the ones who said we should all go out to dinner."
Jeanette giggled and leaned her head onto her cranky husband's shoulder. "Oh, Teddy, they'll be here." She smiled optimistically. "Besides, this will give us a chance to talk."
Theodore blinked a few times. "Where are they!?" He exclaimed desperately.
Jeanette rolled her eyes and smiled at him again. "You can act anyway you want; you know you love talking to me." She wrapped her arms around his abdomen.
A small smile tugged at Theodore's lips as he wrapped his arm around Jeanette's shoulder and leaned his head on top of hers. "So, what did you want to talk about?" He asked.
Jeanette shrugged. "You know… us." She smiled at the feel of his body vibrating as he chuckled. "Theo, I have something to tell you." She grinned.
"You're not leaving me are you?" Theodore's head shot up in horror.
Jeanette laughed. "No, no, calm yourself." Her laughter soon died down to amused giggles. "It's good news. Well, it all depends on how you look at it." Jeanette squinted as she thought. "Like it's a good thing to me, but it isn't necessarily a good thing to you…"
Theodore placed his finger over her lips to stop her babbling. "Before you go into a psychotic philosophy rant, why don't you tell me what you need to tell me?" He gently lowered his hand to let her speak once again.
Jeanette grinned at him. "Okay," She took in a deep breath and Theodore waited patiently for her to continue. "I'm pregnant."
With that said, I've began stalling my ending. Don't hate me! All writers do that! I know for a fact that you guys do!
Haha! Gotcha!
Anyway, what do you want to see in the next chapter? You guys have been slacking on that… ;)
