Lucy heard the beeper go
in the kitchen. She ran to the oven and pulled out the now baked cookies. They
were a little burnt, and a little ( actually very) tiny but she figured they
would taste alright. She placed a few on a plate for Simon and put the rest in
the cookie jar. She then carried the plate upstairs to Simon's room. She knocked
on the door.
Simon: Who is it?
Lucy walked in the room. He didn't turn to see who came in so she said.
Lucy: I tried to make some cookies. You know mom's recipe. They didn't turn out
the best but they should taste okay. I figured I would bring you up some since
I forgot to bring you something back from the pool hall. I'll just leave the
plate of them here on the dresser.
Lucy was hoping he would say something to her but he never so she just left the
room. As she was walking down the hallway to her room she saw her Grandma
walking towards her.
Grandma Ruth: Lucy. Your Grandpa and I are going to leave for the hotel now. I
was just going to go tell Simon.
Lucy: I don't think he wants to see anyone right now. I'll be sure to tell him
where you are if he asks.
Grandma Ruth: Thank you Lucy. You can call the hotel room if you need anything
or if you just want to talk. I left the nimbe on the fridge downstairs.
Lucy: Thanks. Are Mary and Gorge staying here.
Grandma Ruth: They said they were. Mary was going to sleep on the couch and
Gorge figured he would sleep in Simon's or Robbie's bedroom.
Lucy: Okay. Bye.
Her Grandma walked down the stairs. Lucy saw Gorge walk up the stairs towards
her.
Gorge: Do you think it would be alright if I slept on the floor in Simon's
room.
Lucy: I think it would be alright but you would have to ask Simon.
Gorge: Thanks.
Lucy walks to her bedroom while Gorge walks to Simon's bedroom and knocks on
the door.
Simon: Come in.
Gorge walks in and Simon turns around to see Gorge there.
Simon: Is there something you want.
Gorge: Well I was gonna spend the night here and seeing as I don't really know
Robbie that well I was wondering if I could sleep on the floor in your room.
Simon: Sure I guess. I'll go get you a sleeping bag and pillow.
Gorge: Thanks.
