*Luna's POV*

We were wondering what was happening to Michael, when suddenly the phone rang. Sam quickly answered it and I heard Lucy's voice on the other end of the line.

'Oh shit!'

"Mom, I think we need to have a really long talk about something."

'No you little idiot!' I snapped my fingers to get his attention and quickly shook my head while making the 'be quiet!' motion across my throat.

I suddenly heard Michael screaming on the other end of the line.

"What's that noise?! That's not Michael is it?!"

"Uh, Luna..." I looked over at Amber to see that her eyes were wide & she was pointing out the window. I turned to look out the window & froze.

Michael was floating outside.

'WHAT THE FUCK?!'

I paled when I noticed that he had a phone clutched in his hand.

'Son of a bitch!'

"Don't listen to him mom! He doesn't know what he's saying! Shut up Sam!"

Sam started freaking out when he saw Michael in the window & I quickly snatched the phone from his hand before Amber grabbed him & covered his mouth.

I had to think fast.

"Michael, quit scaring your brother!" I spoke in a condescending tone and pointed to Katie & Rose before pointing to the window.

"Luna? Is that you?!"

"Yeah, the girls & I came over to hang out this afternoon, I hope that's alright."

"I-it's fine, but WHAT is going on over there?!"

I quickly thought before turning to see Katie & Rose trying to open the window.

"Oh nothing, Michael's just playing a prank on Sam. Michael! Stop screaming before I slap you upside the head!" I said when I heard Michael let out a yell, I heard Lucy sigh in relief and mentally did the same.

"Oh thank god! I thought something was really wrong!"

"No no! Everything's fine, trust me. You just focus on having a good time with Max, the girls & I will babysit the morons!" I smiled when I heard Lucy let out a breathy laugh & shot Sam a look when I heard a muffled protest from him, he gulped before quickly shutting up.

"Oh thank you Luna, you're a true friend! And just so you know, you have my full permission to follow through on that threat!"

I felt bad for lying to her, but smirked when I heard the last part.

"Thank you, believe me, after the shit they just pulled, they deserve to get smacked!" I heard her laugh and turned to see that the girls had managed to pull Michael inside.

"Ok Lucy, go back to your date, we've got things covered here."

"Ok, thank you Luna!" She hung up and I turned to give the boys a stern look.

"Are you fucking insane?!"

Amber let go of Sam and he quickly rounded on me. "Why'd you do that Luna?! Mom needs to know whats going on-"

"Sam! THINK before you speak! If you get your mother involved, then she'll be in danger too! Is that what you want?!"

He didn't say another word.

"Yeah. That's what I thought." I looked over at Michael, who was breathing heavily and having a hard time standing up. "What the hell happened Michael?!"

"I don't know! I just laid down to try & go to sleep, next thing I know I'm waking up on the ceiling!"

I sighed and pinched the bridge of my nose.

'I'm not high enough for this shit!'

*Third person POV*

Michael had said that he was going to work things out before leaving on his motorcycle, that left the girls to watch Sam.

"Ok, remember, not a word about this to Lucy! Understand?" The others (including a reluctant Sam) nodded before splitting up. Katie, Amber & Sam decided to read comic books in the living room while Luna & Rose cleaned up the mess that Michael had made in the kitchen.

"Hey Katie, you got a joint?"

Katie didn't even look up from her comic as she reached into her coat pocket & pulled one out.

"Is that a trick question?" We all laughed as she pulled out her matches.

"Good. I think we need one after all the shit that's happened."

"I second that!" The girls laughed as they stood up to walk toward the back door.

"Uh...c-can I join you guys?"

Luna's eyebrows rose to her hairline when Sam spoke up. "You wanna try smoking weed?!" He nodded and the girls all looked at each other before turning to smirk at him. "Well...alright, but don't tell your mother, she'd skin us alive if she knew!"

He smiled before standing up to walk outside with them, Katie got it rolling while Luna turned to Sam.

"Now Sam, the only reason I said yes is because I started smoking when I was the same age as you, so it would be hypocritical for me to say no. But I'll warn you right now, you'll cough your brains out at first. Think you can handle it?"

"Yeah! I can handle it!"

Luna smirked & raised an eyebrow as the joint was passed to her. "We'll see."

She took a big hit off of it before performing a French inhale (much to Sam's amazement)

"Ok, your turn kid. Word of advice; only take small hits at first, at least until you get used to it." He nodded and breathed before taking a hit, quickly blowing it out when he felt his throat burning from the smoke and proceeding to cough so much that he was afraid he'd hack up a lung (much to the girls amusement)

"It's ok Sam, you actually didn't cough as bad as I did the first time I smoked!" She was slightly surprised and Sam managed to stop coughing before puffing his chest out with pride.

"HA! See? I told you I could handle it!"

"Yeah yeah, wait 'til the effects hit ya full force boy, then we'll see how well you handle it!"

*Short time skip, Luna's POV*

'Oh my god this is funny!'

I know it's his first time, but Sam's a total lightweight! He was sitting on the grass with Katie & Amber and had a "perma-smile" on his face as he told us about a few of the misadventures he & Michael had growing up.

"So-so then I dared him to go up on the high-dive, and when he did, I snuck up behind him & pushed him off! I've never heard him scream like a girl before, and I almost fell off myself from laughing so hard!"

We all laughed before I decided that we needed to "sober up". I pulled a few peppermint candies out of my pocket before walking over to the others.

(AN: eating peppermint - or spearmint if you prefer - after smoking weed actually does sober you up. Don't ask how I know that! -_-")

"Hey guys, eat up." I handed them each a piece before popping one in my mouth, the strong minty taste immediately cleared my head (at least enough that it wasn't TOO obvious that I was high as a kite, that shit that Katie had was STRONG!)

"WOAH!" Sam snapped back into reality, along with the girls.

"Yeah, I think you should get to bed before your mom gets home!" Sam nodded & stood up before (slightly) stumbling towards the house.

"Can I eat first? I'm starving!" We all laughed and followed him into the kitchen.

"Yeah, getting the munchies is one of the main side effects, so don't worry about it."

We ended up making sandwiches and us girls actually managed to keep them down (I guess the weed made it so we wouldn't get the stomach pains like Michael had)

"Remember Sammy, don't tell your mother!" He just laughed before disappearing up the stairs.

It was about five minutes later that we heard Lucy pull in.

*Third person POV*

Lucy walked through the door & the girls immediately asked how her date went, she told them she'd had a great time, but had cut the date short (she'd planned on staying out for another hour, but had gotten worried about her sons)

Luna wanted to strangle them.

Lucy saw that the girls were "tired", so she offered for them to stay the night, they were about to protest, but she insisted and they eventually accepted her offer.

Luna hoped that things would work out soon, because she was getting tired of running into trouble everywhere she went.
