Here's Chapter 2! Please R&R (the part of the story I stretched for myself is coming up)
"Kid! Everyone! Dinner!" Annie calls once the table is set and the food is ready.
"Hey mom, have room for one more?" Matt asks coming into the house
"Don't we always Matt? Bring this into the dining room"
"Sure mom."
Lucy, Ruthie and Eric file in and place the twins in their high chairs. Annie comes in and sits, Simon and Amanda come in, just as Robbie walks in.
"Amanda?" Robbie asks
She looks up. "Robbie? What are you doing here?"
Ruthie tugs on Amanda's shirt "I told you Robbie lives here but isn't family remember?"
"Yea, I know he isn't your family, she says still looking at Robbie."
"You two know each other?" Annie asks
"Yea." Robbie answers
"Is she the one with the perfume?" Eric asks
"Yea."
"So wait how do you two know each other? He's too old for you two to go out…..right?" Simon asks
"Why are you here?" Robbie asks
"Me and mom just moved here."
The Camden's sit in their seats very confused.
"I have to stop coming home so much" Matt mutters.
"I am still lost, how do you two know each other?" Eric asks
Amanda makes a face. "I'll talk to you tomorrow Simon, Lucy, thanks for asking me to stay Annie, it was nice meeting you all." Amanda gets up and goes through the kitchen and they hear the door slam shut.
Robbie sits down in his chair.
"OK what happened?" Simon asks
"That was my little sister." Robbie answers. "I'll be up in my room."
"Wait I didn't know you had a sister." Eric says
"She lived with my mom in Florida, I never saw here much, my brother Rick kept in touch with her, but I never found time too." Robbie leaves the room and goes upstairs
"Wow that was exciting." Ruthie smiles.
*********************
"Hey Amanda, wait up!" Simon calls followed by Lucy the next day at school.
She turns around "Hi, sorry about last night, I hope your mom wasn't mad."
"No she wasn't." Lucy answers
"That's good."
"Robbie is your brother?" Simon blurts out.
"He told you?" She asks her eyebrows raised.
"Yes he did, he seemed upset." Lucy says
"I'm sure he was, I have to get to class."
"Wait" Simon says "We can still be friends right?"
"Of course, just because my brother is a jerk and is living with you doesn't mean I'm going to not be friends with you."
"So do you want to go to a movie tonight?" Simon asks
"Yea."
"I'll come by your house at 7 ok?"
"See you at 7." Amanda says then disappears into a classroom.
*****************
"Why are you so upset?" Ruthie asks later on that day at her house.
"Because I screwed up big." Robbie answers
"How?"
"I haven't talked to my mom or sister is so long, I didn't even know she moved here. Then yesterday I didn't even make her stay and talk to me. We used to get along so well."
"She seems really cool." Ruthie says
"She is, and she's smart. She's not a screw-up like me."
"Your not a screw-up Robbie, you just made some bad choices." Annie says
"Annie's right, but you should of talked to Amanda yesterday."
"Well now I wont get the chance, I don't even know where they are living." Robbie says
"Oh well I think you'll see a lot more of her around here. Amanda and Simon have a date tonight." Eric whispers
"They what? She's too young to date." Robbie exclaims
"She is 16 you know." Ruthie says
"Maybe your right." Robbie agrees
Simon comes into the kitchen. "You ready to go Dad?"
"Yea, let's go." Eric grabs his keys.
"Hey Simon, don't touch her ok?" Robbie says forcefully.
"Yea man, no problem." Simon says going out the door.
"See your doing better already." Ruthie pats Robbie on the back.
****************
Later on after the movie
"I had fun, I liked the movie." Amanda says
"Me too" Simon takes her hand "I like you a lot"
"I like you a lot too." She smiles
"You hungry? Want to get some pizza?" Simon asks
"Sure."
Once inside.
"You know Robbie threatened me before I left."
Amanda raises her eyebrows "Oh yea?"
"Yea, he said I better not touch you."
"So he's trying to pull a big brother role now?"
"I guess so."
"He can have fun trying." Amanda shrugs
They finish up their pizza and go outside to wait for Eric.
"I want to kiss you." Simon says.
Amanda smiles "So why don't you?"
"Cause I don't want to get killed in my sleep."
"So what if I kiss you?" She asks
"Then I think I am safe for little while."
"Good." She leans over and kisses Simon. They break the kiss because of a horn honking, as Eric pulls over to the curb.
"You guys have fun?" He asks trying to ignore the fact they were kissing.
"Yup." Simon opens the door and Amanda climbs in and he follows her.
****************
"Thanks for the ride. Mr. Camden. Bye Simon."
"Bye Amanda" Simon calls.
Eric honks as he pulls from the curb.
They pull up in front of their own house a few minutes later.
"Hi mom" Simon greets Annie.
"Hi Simon have fun?"
"Yea, I did"
"What is it?" Eric asks Annie
"Robbie went over to Amanda and their mom's house." Annie explains
******************
Amanda unlocks the door and walks in. "Mom?" She calls out.
"In here sweetie." Grace (her mom) calls
"Hi mom- Robbie? What are you doing here?" Amanda asks angrily
"Listen I-"
"I'm really tired mom. Night" Amanda gives her mom a kiss on the cheek.
"Tomorrow's Saturday" Grace says "She's upset Robbie, she had to live with out you or Rick or her father so long, it's going to be hard on her, go talk to her, she isn't tired."
"So how come you not mad or anything?" Robbie asks
"Because I knew you were upset about your father leaving and moving here was probably best for you and your brother." Grace explains "Go talk to her."
Robbie walks down the hall and knocks on Amanda's room. There is no answer and Robbie looks to his mom, who nods. Robbie opens the door and goes in.
The light is off, so Robbie feels for a light switch and turns on the light.
Amanda is sitting on her bed by the window looking out it.
"Hey Amanda." Robbie starts
"Look mom may forgive you for leaving us, but I don't." Amanda cuts him off
"What about Rick?" Robbie asks knowing he was setting himself up.
"Rick kept in touch with us, but you acted like Dad and didn't call or anything, I got used to living without any of you three, I don't need any of you now."
"You guys came here to try to find me and Rick and be a family again." Robbie protests
"Mom did, I was fine living without any of you."
"I don't believe you, I know you too well." Robbie says sitting on her bed.
"Right." She looks at him. "I haven't seen you in close to two years, you can't just come here and try to act like nothing happened." She says crossly
"I was a jerk."
"Still are."
"OK I am a jerk, but I went through a lot of crap here too."
Amanda looks back out the window.
"I went out with Mary and tried to go to far with her and I cheated on her, I almost got married because this girl told me she was pregnant."
"Yea, sounds tough on you all right."
"I was homeless and the Camdens took me in, then dad came back and tried to get me to live with him but disappeared of course he only wanted money. He wanted me to hate mom. I got back on track with the help of Mr. Camden, I straightened out go a job, I'm going to school."
Amanda doesn't answer. So Robbie gets up and goes to the door.
"You were homeless?"
Robbie stops "Yes."
Amanda looks down. "I'm sorry."
"Don't be, it was my own fault."
"Dad called me the other day too, he wanted me to lend him some money."
"What money? Your always broke?" Robbie asks
Amanda smiles slightly.
"So what happened?" Robbie asks
"He said we could make it big, make the big money, then he said he had to go take care or something first and never called again."
"Did you tell mom?"
"Of course not."
"It's better off that way."
"I guess."
"I really am sorry, I shouldn't of left you alone for that long."
"You know I always knew Rick would leave, he hated the way our life was, all the fights in the house with mom and dad and all, but I always thought you were going to stick around."
"I know and I was, but everything got so hard. So I just ran as far away as I could."
"You succeeded."
"I wish I hadn't"
"Right."
"No really, someone had to look out for you, since mom is always working. You grew up a lot."
"That's what 2 years can do."
"Yea"
"So do we have a truce?" Robbie asks
"Yea." Amanda gives Robbie a hug
"Good"
"But you're still a jerk." She jokes.
"Uh huh. Fine, ok, so you like Simon huh?"
"Yea I do."
"So how was tonight?"
"It was good"
"OK."
"Yea especially the kiss." She smiles
"He kissed you?" Robbie exclaims
Amanda just smiles
"Oh me and Simon are going to have some problems I see." Robbie jokes.
"Just don't kill him, I kinda like him."
"I won't." Robbie promises
"You know I am glad that me and mom moved here, I always did miss you."
"I'm sorry I never called, I didn't think you would talk to me."
"I don't know if I would of either." Amanda answers truthfully.
"Well I have to go, I have to work tomorrow." Robbie gets up.
"OK good-night."
"Night Amanda." Robbie goes out of her room.
Amanda leans over and picks up the phone, "Hello…..Simon?…..Yea Robbie just left…..yea it was ok actually..….tomorrow?…….sounds good…….night…." She smiles and hangs up the phone
TBC"d please R&R for me,
A/N: I know Robbie didn't have a sister but that was just what I wanted to add in for my story I hope you all liked it.
