Summary: pshh I dunno.

A/N: Bad news guys, I got real bad marks on my report card and mum has taken off the Internet. This means, I'll have to update at school and not as frequently. Sorry, but I have to get good marks!

About a week after the party, we were all seated around the kitchen table for breakfast. The newly turned seven-year-old Colan was bouncing around, making it hard for Billee to sit him in his chair. I was laughing.

"Billee, do you want me to get some rope and I'll tie him to the chair? Or did he eat my bag of gummy worms last night?" I asked. Everyone laughed.

"Jamie, I think he ate the left over sweets from the party." Said Frodo, his eyes twinkling. I raised my eyebrows.

"Well. I wonder what kind of penalty that deserves?" I asked.

Colan ignored me. He just kept bouncing around like a rabbit with its bum on fire.

Damon came in a little late. He looked a little sullen.

"Yo Damon, what's up?"

Damon just glared at me and got himself some toast. I shrugged. Must not have had a very good nights sleep.



It went on like that for almost the entire day. Finally at around lunchtime, I got sick of Damon being so mad and ignoring me. I mean, he was fine the day before.

"Hey, Emma. I think Damon is trying to ignore me." I said, just loud enough for Damon to hear. Everyone else's ears perked up.

"Really? Doesn't he know that is humanly impossible?"

"I don't think he's realised it yet!"

"Good lord! He's in for a shock when he finds out!"

Damon turned and raised an annoyed eyebrow. I grinned.

"What? Was I talking to you?" I asked. Damon turned and regarded Emma.

"Is she always this annoying?" He asked.

"Only to those I adore most." I said, nudging Frodo slightly. Frodo grinned. Damon turned to me.

"Was I talking to you?"

"No but it is my duty to be arrogantly obnoxious."

The whole yard burst out laughing and Damon just scowled so more. Why on earth was he being so hard to get along with today?



That evening, I put on 'The Lion King 2' for the littlies. Colan seemed to have calmed down a lot and soon after the movie was finished, he gave Elrond a hug and went upstairs to bed. Wendy had gone home before. There was a soft knock at the door and I opened it.

It was Blue. She looked a little worried.

"Hey Blue, what's wrong?" I asked her.

"Wendy isn't here is she?" She asked, her voice shaking slightly.

"No, I thought she went back home. She left about half an hour ago." I said, beginning to pick up on the thread of worry.

"Well she isn't home yet, Mum is getting real worried."

"Calm down Blue, maybe she stopped at Anna's or Dawn's."

"Maybe, but I can't help but feel worried."

I took my friend into the kitchen and got Frodo. I explained the situation and we went into the kitchen to talk to Blue.
