[Author's Note: I accidentally broke my computer. So I'm getting my friend Veronica (yaaaay Vern to the rescue *round of applause*) to upload chapters and stuff for me since I can't go on the Internet now. So I'll email you from school during keyboarding, Erin:)]

"Mom, I'm sorry!" Libby screamed when she walked in the house. "Please let me plead my case before you kill me!"

Gage shouted from the living room over the racket of the TV, "Relax, she's not home. She's still at the office."

"Oh, thank you, God." She called, "Tabitha's at Andie's just so you know and you can stop worrying."

Gage cried, "Andie Weiss?"

Libby came into the living room and sprawled out on the couch, stretching her legs out so her feet were in his face. "Yes," she said patiently. "Why? How do you know her?"

"She's hot." He batted at her feet with his hands. "Ewww, get them away from me! They're too close! Keep them away!"

"So were you lonely today?" she asked.

"Just me and my boy Pookie. The way it should've been. You two were mistakes." He sighed. "Then Jake went over to the next door kid's house and left me alone and I've been watching I Love Lucy."

"Poor thing. You should get a job."

Gage asked, "And where were you?"

"Having sex with boys I don't know in the middle of the football field."

"What else did you do?"

"I went over to a person's house," she said, just as Tabitha came up behind her.

"Chris Chambers'!" Tabitha cried.

"How did you know that?"

Tabitha shrugged. "Schmuh, I don't know, I just know everything you do."

Libby peered up at her.

Tabitha shrugged again. "Abby told me. What exactly did you to do?"

"Absolutely nothing," Libby giggled.

"LIAR! Tell me!"

"His mom makes excellent cookies!" Libby yelled.

Tabitha took a running leap and landed on Libby, kicking Gage in the head by accident. "I know you! Your face is all happy!

"Howl," Gage complained, rubbing his kicked head.

"Tell me what happened!" Tabitha yelled at Libby.

"I fell in LOVE!" Libby cried, throwing her arms around her sister.

"Gross, with Chris? He has a girlfriend!"

"No, the cookies," she said. "Those are pretty terrific cookies."

"Must be," Tabitha said, looking at her strangely. "Must be some cookies."

"Cookies, blast it all!"

Tabitha smiled curiously. "Yes, Libby. Cookies. Right. Ha ha."

"I hate you and I want you to go away."

"You hate me?"

She giggled. "No, I don't. But your knee is digging into my pelvic bone. I might kill you soon."

Tabitha moved so she was sitting on Libby's legs. "Now you've made me curious, you little brat."

Cackling, Libby said, "I do my job as a sister very well."

"If you were a good sister, you'd tell me what exactly happened at Chris'."

"But I'm a bad sister."

"Oh right. Lest I forget."

"Teddy Duchamp asked me out via Chris."

"WHAT?" she exclaimed. "Already?"

"What can I say, I'm very sexy."

"You most certainly are NOT," Gage said.
