Accidental Trouble- Mother 3
Lucas,Claus and Pollyanna were discussing today's activity. Claus then clapped his hands. "Pollyanna. We love playing with you but can we have a twin day today?" Lucas and Pollyanna looked at the twin with confusion. "Why?" They asked in unison.
"Like I said. We love playing with you. But We haven't had a just us day since you came along!" Pollyanna thought it over. "Y'know what. I'll go play with Angie and Nana then. Maybe we can bother Fuel." She gave the twin an 'I kinda don't believe you' look. She was always there to catch or block anything that soar their way. "Be careful,Okay?" She said with a sweet tone. They both nodded. Once she was out of earshot Claus took his brother's hand and said "You me baseball!" Lucas was forced to put on a glove and they made their way to the field. Claus handed him the bat and told him to go to home base which was being represented by Pollyanna's hairbrush. "Are you sure she won't mind her brush getting dirty?" He asked as he walked over to it. "It's fine!" He drawled. "Okay...I'm as ready as i'll ever be!" He called to the pitcher. Claus drew back and threw the ball at Lucas. He flinched and froze as he saw it heading-Whack!- right for his eye… He wailed and fell onto his backside. Claus was about to call him out for missing but when he saw his twin on the floor he ran to him. 'What's wrong!" He saw the ball and looked at it and hi twin. Realization struck him like a bat. He hit Lucas in the eye with a baseball. "Oh man! I am so sorry!" Tears fell down Lucas' cheeks as he held his eye. "Here. Lemme see." He gently removed his hand from his eye, much like Pollyanna does, to see how bad it was. He looked at it with shock. He was only 6! How could he possibly do it this bad! Lucas' eye was swelling and was bruised. "How about we go get someone..." Lucas nodded tearfully. Claus thought for a second. Mom? No she was busy helping Charlotte with Nut Bread. Dad? Nope, he's in the fields. Oh man she'll be peeved! But I have to go to Pollyanna…
Claus helped Lucas up and then he said "Come on. We're heading to Nana's house." Lucas knew what this meant. Once a knock was pounded on Pollyanna's fourth best friend's door she looked up from her other friends. "I'll go get that." She offered. Angie yelled a giggly okay. She was the good kind of annoying. She slid down the steps and opened the door. She got an eyeful of her best friend ever. And one was crying. Her eyes widened and she pulled Lucas over to her and took his hand. "What in Save Frog's name happened!?" Angie and Nana came downstairs at the sounds of Pollyanna fussing. "Are you okay down there?" They saw Pollyanna looking at Lucas' black eye as Claus was spouting an explanation. "I'll get my mom." Nana exclaims. Angie knew this side of Pollyanna all too well. Even though she isn't as close to her as the Ryuka twins she was her best friend that was a girl. She had to admit, fussy and protective Pollyanna was very cute. Nana's mother came into the room and took Lucas into the kitchen to give him some Ice. Claus, Nana, Angie and Pollyanna were sitting in the living room in silence. Pollyanna giggles. "I can't leave you two alone for one single day, can't I?" She nudged Claus on the shoulder. The older twin laughed. Nana's mother called Pollyanna's name. She sprang up in fear that it was about Lucas and hurried over to the kitchen. Angie smiled at the twin. "Okay. Pollyanna's grin is sweet but that's creepy. What?" Angie laughed " You have a pretty darn great big sister,Y'know?" Claus blushed. "Big Sister? We're best friends!" Angie shook her head and Nana did the same. "Where love is there is family,Y'know!"
"She loves us?"
Pollyanna and Lucas walked to him and Pollyanna flicked her wrist as she silently asked for his hand. Lucas had a ice pack on his eye and Pollyanna was wearing her sunshiny smile. Before they walked away Claus looked back as Angie mouthed. "More than anything."
