Chapter Four
Iggy and Danni had gone inside and went fast to sleep.
---Next Morning---
The sun was shining into Max's eyes. With a grunt she turned away from the sun.
Danni sat up in bed and looked at the floor. Max, Nudge, and Angel were sleeping in a pile of blankets. Danni had to dance over them to get to the door.
Once she emerged from her room she looked over to her parents room. That was where Fang, the Gasman, and Iggy where sleeping. Her dad, who would be the one to return, would never know that three boys had slept in there. He never paid much attention to how his room was arranged if every thing was close to the place that they had been.
She went into the kitchen. It was still a mess from last night. Before she would eat she would clean up. She was not the type to clean, but she did have a few standards. For instance, make sure the kitchen won't get so dirt that it became a bacteria minefield. What could she say she hated getting sick.
The dishes were just placed into the dishwasher when Max shuffled into the kitchen.
"Oh, sorry for not cleaning up," Max said sluggishly.
Danni looked up to Max, "That's okay. After all you are the guests. Even if you broke in."
Max smiled a bit, "Yeah, about that don't worry. We put the screen back in and it looks as if what happened never happened."
"That's a relief," Danni said taking two bowls from the cabinet overhead. "Want cereal?"
Max shook her head yes.
"So, out of curiosity, where are you going?" Danni asked.
"Uh, nowhere really," Max replied. It was the truth. Honesty's the best policy, so they say.
"If you guys want you can stay here for a few days. My parents won't be back for a few weeks," Danni offered.
"No! We don't want to stay here!" Nudge stormed into the room. Rage was making her turn red.
"Nudge!" Max screamed at her out break of disrespect.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" Danni asked.
"Aghh," Nudge suppressed a scream and stomped out of the house banging the door.
The rest of the group came in. They were staring at the scene of the fight. Wide eyes looked from Max to Danni to the door that Nudge almost took off the hinges.
"What was that?" Fang asked gesturing his hand around the room.
Max shook her head, "Nudge just started screaming after Danni offered to let us stay for awhile."
Every face turned to Danni. She nodded to tell them that what Max said was true.
The Gasman sat at the wooden dinning table, "Why would she be upset?"
"I don't know," Max replied.
Angel walked up to Danni, "But she does."
For the second time that morning everyone, including Max, turned to face Danni for an explanation.
