Chapter 17: Sleepover
Connor Residence
Jacob, Jaune, and Pyrrha all followed Britney and her friends to her house for her sleepover. Jacob is feeling nervous for not only going over to Britney's home, but he is even more so when he felt like something is going to happen to Jaune and Pyrrha.
"We're here," Britney turned to Jacob, Jaune and Pyrrha.
They all looked at Britney's house. It was a one story home, painted light grey. Surrounding the property, was a small iron fence and within the fence was a small flower garden.
"Are you sure about this?" Jaune asked.
"If it's to make sure that they don't say anything then what choice do we have," said Jacob.
"I wonder how the others are doing," Pyrrha said.

Meanwhile back at Kelly's house, Nora had drank a bottle of Mountain Dew and is now dancing back and forth across the rooftop, while Ren, Kelly, Weiss, and Ruby were trying to get her down.
"I'm queen of the castle! I'm queen of the castle!" Nora sang loudly.
"Nora please get down from up there!" Ruby shouted.
"Yeah, before anyone sees!" Kelly added.
"Bow down to your queen, peasants!" Nora joyfully shouted while twitching uncontrollably with a cross eyed look.

"Meh, I'm sure they're fine," Jacob said.
"Alright guys, come inside," Britney said, holding the front door open.
Everyone walks in through the door while Jacob walks up to Britney.
"Are your parents cool with us showing up?" asked Jacob.
"They're more used to my friends showing up, but for other people however, they do stuff like ask questions, try to check your background, and they will-" Britney was interrupted by Jacob.
"Wait! Wait. Wait. Back up for a second. What the heck do you mean try to check your background," Jacob asked.
"My dad is a police officer," answered Britney.
"Wait, what?!" Jacob whispers in shock and worry.
"Yes, why is that a problem?" Britney asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Is there a problem? IS THERE A PROBLEM? What if your dad decides to look up some information on Pyrrha and Jaune? And what if he finds nothing on them? And I mean nothing. No history, no background, no birth certificate, no nothing, meaning as if they never existed!" Jacob explained.
"Look I can convince my dad to steer suspicion away from the two, that way they won't get caught. Besides he's not even home and he'll be working late tonight," Britney said.
Jacob couldn't help but sigh in relief after hearing that Britney's father will be working later tonight but felt like he almost had a heart attack, figuring out that her father is part of the Knoxville Police Department.
Jacob follows Britney inside the house. He saw Jaune and Pyrrha talking with a woman wearing dark blue jeans and white sneakers. She is also wearing a light blue collared shirt and a watch on her left hand. She has short blonde hair and green eyes and wears silver earrings. Jacob quickly assumed that was Britney's mother and then walked up to her, Jaune, and Pyrrha. The mother turned to face Jacob.
"Hello, I'm Helen. I'm Britney's mother," the woman now known as Helen introduced.
"Hi, I'm Jacob. Jacob Gordon," he said as he shoke Helen's hand.
"So you're all friends of Britney?" Helen asked.
"Yeah, we are," Jacob answered.
"Mmm-Hmm," Jaune also answered.
"She is a nice person to be around," Pyrrha said.
Pyrrha and Jaune don't know Britney at all, but they had to lie to Helen to avoid suspension, while Jacob barely even interacts with her.
"Ya'll go to school together?" asked Helen.
"Yeah, we all go to the Central High School together," answered Jacob.
"Britney, we're ready for you guys," Rebecca called.
"What have you guys got going now?" Helen asked.
"Just something for the new guests," Britney said.
"Well I hope it doesn't involve, how you kids say, hide the weasel. Because you know how your dad gets about that," Helen said with a smirk.
"Mom!" Britney shouts with a blush.
"Nothing like that will happen Mrs. Connor," Jacob said.
"I hope so young man," she said as she narrowed her eyes on Jacob.
"Come on guys," Britney said. Jacob, Jaune and Pyrrha follow Britney to her room with Rebecca, Kendra and Robert waiting there.
"You sure the others will be fine at your friend's house?" Britney asked.

Meanwhile back at Kelly's house, Kelly, Weiss, Yang, and Ricky were all playing a video game called Mario Party while Allen, Ruby, Blake, Nora, and Ren all watched the others play, and it was madness.
"Suck it, Xiao Long!" Weiss shouted, then was shocked by what she just said.
"I will kill you when this is over, Weiss," Yang growled.
"Go get 'em sis!" Ruby cheered.
"Come on, Kelly. Kick their asses!" Nora shouted.
"Nora," Ren groaned.
"Dibs on the next game," Allen said.

"Positive," Jacob said.
"If you say so," Britney said.
They both enter Britney's room and find Rebecca talking with Jaune and Pyrrha while Robert and Kendra talk with each other.
"Hey Jaune be honest with me, what's up with you and Pyrrha?" asked Rebecca.
"What do you mean?" Jaune asked.
"Have you reached tier fifteen yet? Have you... penetrated Pyrrha with your sword?" she asked as she grinned.
"Why would I try to kill Pyrrha?" Jaune asked.
"That's not what I meant," Rebecca said.
Pyrrha however, got what Rebecca was implying and turned away with her face turning red as her hair as a result.
"I meant doing the horizontal mambo, doing the rogue dancer, giving her your sausage, stuff like that," Rebecca said.
"Uh, what?" Jaune asked.
"Oh god, how clear do I half to be?" Rebecca groaned.
"Okay, so what are we all doing?" Jacob interrupted.
"You know, just typical stuff at sleepovers. Playing games, dancing, and other various activities," Kendra said.
"I'll start the music," Robert said.
He then grabbed his phone and plugged it into a small speaker which then music started playing. Britney, Robert, and Kendra all started dancing.
"Don't just start there. Dance," Britney said.
Jacob, Jaune, and Pyrrha stood silent for a couple of seconds then started to dance as well.
"Question what's this song called?" asked Jaune.
"Stayin' Alive by the Bee Gees," Robert answered.
"Good song that is," Jacob said.
A half an hour later, they all were still dancing until Robert walked to his phone to find a different song.
"How about this one, Angels Of The Morning by Juice Newton?" Robert requested.
"Sounds good," Kendra said.
"Sure," Britney said.
"Okay," Jacob said.
Robert presses play on his phone, then music starts slow playing. Kendra grabs Robert to get him to dance with her.
"Uh, care to dance, Pyrrha?" Jaune asked, holding out his hand.
"I'd be happy to," Pyrrha answered, grabbing his hand.
Jaune grabbed Pyrrha's right hand with his left and his right hand on her hip, while Pyrrha put her left hand on Jaunes shoulder. Both started dancing and stepping in rythme with the song.
Jacob watched Jaune and Pyrrha dance happily as Rebecca walked up to Britney.
"Hey Britney, why don't you ask that boy to dance with you?" Rebecca asked, pointing at Jacob.
"I don't know, maybe he's not in a mood to dance," Britney said.
"Come on girl, I'm sure he would love to dance," Rebecca said, then grabbing Britney's hand, pulling her straight to Jacob.
"Hey Jacob," Rebecca said.
"Yeah?" Jacob turned to the girls.
"Britney here wants to ask you to dance," Rebecca said then pushed her towards Jacob.
Jacob's heart skipped a beat as Britney stood right in front of him.
"Uhh... do you want to uh... dance?" Jacob asked, scared of what her answer was going to be.
"Uhm.. sure," Britney said, grabbing Jacob's hand.
Both got into dance positions and started dancing and stepping to the music.
"So uh.. nice night?" Jacob asked.
"Uh... yeah nice night," Britney answered.
"So what do you think of them? I mean my friends." Jacob asked.
"They seem nice," Britney answered.
After the song ends, everyone stops dancing.
"Okay, anyone want to watch a movie?" Rebecca asked.
"Sure," everyone answered
"Hey Jaune, Pyrrha, I got you some sodas," Rebecca said, handing them each a bottle
"Thanks," they said.
