Chapter 5

"What's the score?" Tommy asked walking into Lil's apartment. It was Thankgiving, and the boys were still fighting. Chuckie and Kimi were seated watching the football game, Lil, Angelica, and Susie were preparing the food. Phil was over at his apartment and Dil had went to the store to get a turkey.

"35 to 42." Chuckie replied.

"Um, I believe I was talking to Kimi." Tommy said.

"35 to 42." Kimi said.

"Thank you." Tommy said and sat down to watch the game as Phil rushed in.. "Ooh. Phil, I'm glad you're here." Tommy said.

"I'm sorry, do I know you?" Phil asked. "Oh right, you're the one who did it with my sister! How ya been doing?"

"Ha ha. Very funny. Anyway, I just wanted to tell you, I'm moving out."

"Huh?"

"I'm moving in with Lil. I need a roomate who's at least my friend."

"She's more than that." Phil said. Lil kicked him in the leg.

"I'm going to be moving in with you, Phil." Kimi said.

"Don't I get a say in this?" Phil asked.

"That was rude. What? You don't want me to move in?" Kimi asked.

""No, not that. I mean Tommy moving out."

"I can move out if I want. You're not my master! You're just the guy who lives across the hall." Tommy said.

"Fine. Fine." Phil said as Dil rushed in.

"I got the biggest turkey they had!!" he cheered. Everyone was quiet. "Whoa, this party really died."

.....

"Come on!" Tommy yelled at the TV. "Yes!"

"Well, break time. I guess I could sit down and watch the game now." Angelica said.

"Half time!" Tommy, Kimi, and Chuckie yelled and jumped up.

"You, guys. This is Thankgiving. Do we have to fight on Thanksgiving?" Dil asked.

"Well, if Chuckie had kept his big mouth shut, we could be fighting on the day after Thanksgiving!"Lil yelled.

"Blame Kimi!" Chuckie yelled.

"Blame Susie!"

"Blame Angelica!"

"Blame, me, I guess."Angelica said.

"You know what, I'm mad at all of you. Lets just say that!" Tommy shouted.

"Hey Kimi. You wanna start moving your stuff into the apartment?" Phil asked.

"Yeah, okay. Wanna help guys?" Kimi asked.

"Yeah sure, I will." Chuckie said.

"Anyone besides Chuckie, wanna help?" Phil asked.

"Why are you mad at me?"

"Because you should have come and told me."

"I'll help." Dil said.

"Tommy, I'm sorry. Please forgive me."Chuckie begged.

"Okay, I'll forgive you if, you drink milk, thats at least a month old." Tommy said.

"Ooh! We have some! Come on Susie!" Angelica yelled and they ran up to get the milk.

"Why do they have milk that's a month old?" Lil asked.

.....

"Your bed?" Phil asked.

"Yeah. I want my bed." Kimi said.

"Can't you just use Tommy's. He's leaving it." Dil said.

"Yeah. Its way too heavy." Phil wined.

"Fine, I'll sleep on the couch." Kimi said.

"You are so predictable. Come on Dil." Phil said and they lifted up the bed. "Geeze, this is heavy."

"Kimi, it won't fit through the door." Dil said.

"Well, duh. You have to take it apart." Kimi said.

.......

"Okay, here it is." Angelica and Susie ran back in. Chuckie grabbed the milk and smelled it.

"You know I was just joking?" Tommy whispered to Lil. She chuckled and nodded to him.

Chuckie took a big drink of the milk. He looked dazed. He quickly ran into the bathroom and they herad him throw up. "Hey look at this. This milk is three months old." Angelica said looking at the date on the milk.

"Well, Tommy. Do you forgive me now?" Chuckie asked.

"You do know I was just joking about the milk part, right?"

"Huh? I did that for no reason?"

"No no. I forgive you. Its just I was joking about that."

"Oh."

"It was really funny though." Angelica commented.

Chuckie laughed then changed the subject. "I invited Sam over for Thanksgiving dinner. Hope you don't mind." Chuckie said.

"No, not at all." Lil said putting the turkey in the oven.

"She's also bringing a friend."

.....

"Let's see." Phil said looking at insturctions for the bed.

"Look Phil, all you have to do is do the instructions backwards." Dil said.

"Huh?"

"Look. Start at the last step, and go down." Dil said.

"Oh, okay." Phil said. He tried to yank a bar out of the bed. He pulled on it and it flew back. It flew into the kitchen and Phil heard something shatter.

Angelica walked into the bedroom with gravy all over her. "Stupid." she said.

"Sorry Angelica." Phil said.

......

"Guys, I'm going to go get cleaned up." Angelica said and headed for her apartment.

"Um, Susie. Could you start on our new batch of gravy?" Lil asked.

"Yeah sure."

"Hey guys. Anything I can do to help?" Kimi asked coming out of the bedroom.

"Uh, yeah. Get the pumpkin pie ready." Lil said.

.....

Angelica walked down the hall and she ran into Sam. "Sam. How ya doing?" she asked.

"Pretty good. Heh, why are you covered in gravy." Sam asked.

"Bed problems."

"Sorry it took me so long, couldn't find a parking space." a man walked up to Sam and kissed her on the lips. Angelica was a little confused. "Who's this?"

"Um, Gravy, this is Cody." Sam chuckled.

"Gravy?" Cody asked.

"Angelica. Nice to meet you. I'd shake your hand, but I'm covered in dressing." Angelica said and walked up the stairs. She quickly ran up to her apartment and grabbed the phone. he dialed Lil's number.

"Lil. Is Chuckie still there?" Angelica asked.

"Yeah why?"

"When there is a knock on the door. Do not answer it. It's Sam. I think her 'friend' is her boyfriend."

"But, Chuckie said that they-"

"I know, but he kissed her on the lips."

"Okay, bye."

"Bye." Lil said. "Chuckie."

"Yeah?" he asked.

"Um, I don't think we should let Sam in."

"Why?"

"Angelica said that she saw her kiss a man." Lil frowned.

"Oh. O-okay."Chuckie said and went and sat down on the couch.

"Whats wrong?" Tommy asked.

"Sam.I think she's cheating on me again." Chuckie said. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Lil went and looked through the peep hole. It was Sam and her "friend."

"Uh oh. Its Sam, what do we do?" Lil asked.

"Just stay quiet and maybe she'll leave." Chuckie said. "Turn the TV off." Tommy nodded and turned it off.

.....

"Help me Dil." Phil said. They pulled on one of the legs of the bed. The jerked it off and it flew out of the bedroom, into the living room and broke a vase. "oops."

"Chuckie. Are you in there?" Sam knocked on the door.

"They know we're here now." Chuckie said and opened the door. "Sam!" he hugged her.

"This is Cody." Sam intorduced as Angelica walked back in.

"I told you not to let her in." Angelica whispered to Lil. Lil just shrugged.

Phil and Dil walked out of the bedroom. "Phil, Dil. This is Cody." Sam introduced.

"Hi." they both said and shook his hand.

"You're paying for that." Lil whispered to her brother.

"You're paying for that." Phil mocked her.

.....

"So, Cody, what do you do?" Chuckie asked. They were all sitting down at the table eating Thanksgiving dinner.

"I'm a teacher" he said.

"So am I." Kimi said.

"What do you do, Chuckie?" Cody asked.

"I'm a dentist." he replied.

"Hey guy who lives aross the hall, could you pass the cranberry sauce?" Tommy asked.

"Why don't you get one of your friends to do it?" Phil asked.

"What wrong with them?" Cody whispered to Chuckie.

"Um, its a long story. Tommy did it with Lil, and it made Phil mad." Chuckie whispered back

About 20 minutes passed with no converstion hardly at all. "Okay Sam, I'm just gonna come out and say this! Are you cheating on me?" Chuckie asked.

"What?"

"Who is this guy? Your brother? Your dad? Your fiancee'?"

"Um. Well, yeah, we're going out. Why?"

"Um, because, you said we were."

"No I-Actually, yeah I did say that, didn't I."

"Great. You dump me again. And when he dumps you, don't come crawling back to me!"

"Um,sorry."

"I think you should leave." Chuckie mumbled.

"What?" Sam asked.

"Get the hell out!" Lil shouted.

"Come on, Sam. Lets go." Cody said. Him and Sam stormed out.

A little while passed again, and no talking what so ever. "Okay. I cant stand this! You guys make up! So Tommy had sex with Lil! Big deal! You've had sex with Angelica!" Dil shouted.

"No I've not!" Phil and Angelica shouted.

"I know, its just you haven't had sex with anyone related to Tommy, and you know." Dil said.

Tommy and Phil stared at each other for a while. "Um. I guess, I'm sorry, Tommy." Phil mumbled.

"Me too." Tommy mumbled.

"There, now that they've made up, we can have the best Thanksgiving ever!" Kimi shouted.

"Not exactly. We'll have to put that bed back togther now." Dil said.

"Nah. Tommy can move in with Lil. Doesn't bother me." Phil said.

"You know, I was gonna move in with her anyway."

"Oh, so now you're mister I do anything I want, when I want!?"

"Oh, you wanna start something?"

"Bring it on!"

"Ahh, back to normal." Dil said.

"What are you talking about, this is exactly how they were five minutes ago." Chuckie said while Tommy and Phil were still arguing.

"Well, I guess this is as close as we're going to get for a while."


Thanksgiving seemed to be a total disaster. Tommy and Phil have made up, kind of. And Sam was cheating on Chuckie, again.
