Chapter 4: Excitement

Once Natalie got home, she ran inside, saw her brother, and jumped in his arms. He looked down at her suspiciously. "What is wrong with you?" he asked her. She glared at him. "Duh I met with coach Orion and Bombay, interesting people they are." his eyes light up wanting to know if she is in or not.

She stood up, took out a folder from her bag, and shoved it into his hands. He read it and immediately started to swing Natalie around the room since he was so happy about it.

The others heard the screeching and yelling they came out of the living room and into the entryway and smiled at the scene. "Now what is this all about, and by the way did you get into whatever school you wanted in at?" Goldberg asked.

Natalie smirked at them all and nodded. "Yes I did and you all get to suffer from me for a long time. Because I'm going to Eden Hall with you." she said to them.

They were all quiet for a moment, but they were joining in on the joyousness of it. Fulton went over to her and swung her around happy that she was going to be wit him at school and he can attempt to ask her out finally.

They have all been talking for a few hours when finally Fulton asked to talk to Natalie in the next room. "Okay come on." they went to the kitchen and Natalie waited for him to say something or another.

Fulton looked at her and sighed. "How come you didn't tell me about this, hmm? I thought you trusted me?" he asked, Natalie gave him a look. "Fulton I wanted it to be a surprise okay, I'm sorry." she said and narrowed her eyes at him.

He scoffed at her, "Yet Portman knows." Natalie ran her hands through her hair in frustration. "He's my BROTHER, what did you expect me not to tell him at all." Fulton threw his hands up in the air.

"Damn it, I thought we had grown close to another at least, more than you have to some of the others, I thought you would tell me this at least."

Natalie was getting angry, got up in his face, and began to yell at him. "Maybe if you had the courage to ask me out I would have told you Fulton." Natalie yelled at him. The others were listening closely on the other side of the door and looking in through the glass that the arguing pair didn't realize.

Natalie was about to walk away and out of the house when Fulton grabbed her wrist and pulled her to him, before she could even protest his lips were upon hers in a heated kiss that ended the argument for that moment.

He let his tongue slide over her lips before he broke away. Natalie was in shock for a moment and glared at him but not in a pissed off way. "Don't even think that when ever you mess up that you can just kiss me like that Fulton Reed." she said with her hands on her hips.

Fulton smiled at her and kissed her again, she wrapped her arms around his neck and melted into the kiss. Soon before they realized it there was cheering on the other side of the kitchen and their friends came in with smiling faces. Connie came up to Natalie and smiled happily.

"It took you two long enough we knew about your love and or attraction towards each other in the first few days of meeting each other." Natalie rolled her eyes at her but hugged her anyways along with Julie.

Portman looked at Fulton and motioned him over, Natalie glanced at her brother and realized what he was going to do there isn't much she could do he was going to threaten him not to hurt her or something along those lines.

All brothers do it no matter what, he is over protective of her more than he ever was when they were younger; probably because he hasn't seen her for two years because neither of their parents had the time to set it up between them.

Fulton followed Portman into the living room away from all the commotion. "Fulton if you even think of hurting her in anyway or looking at her in any way that is wrong I will hurt you like you would not believe. She cries because you hurt her you will be hurt ten times worse anything you do to her I will do ten times worse to you. Got it."

Fulton nodded at his best friend and they walked back where everyone else was, Fulton walked up to Natalie, she slid her arm around him as he did it to her.

Natalie and the others stayed up a bit longer but soon they were all getting tired and decided that it was time for them to get to bed and sleep, Fulton kissed Natalie deeply before he was being dragged off by Portman to his own room.

Natalie changed into a pair of boxers and a tank top, flopped onto her bed, and went to sleep. The next morning she heard laughing coming from besides her, she opened her eyes and saw Connie, Julie and Goldberg.

"Why the hell are you in my room? And what are you laughing at." she asked them, she then noticed that they were looking through a photo album of hers that she doesn't let people look through because she had some very embarrassing pictures in there.

She jumped up quickly and took it from them and glaring hotly at them for looking through something without asking her first. Goldberg looked up at her and hesitantly smiled.

"Umm sorry we were waiting for you to get up and decided to look through your pictures. Sorry." Natalie sighed and motioned for them to get out of her room.

Natalie sighed and rolled out of bed and got changed. She put a favorite CD in, Kittie a hard-core metal girl band, the best out there. Natalie quickly put her hair up in a messy bun, she then put a shirt of her brothers that she stole from him, and it was an old Rob Zombie shirt and a pair of hip huggers on as well.

She went down stairs and flopped down on the couch she noticed that her brother and Fulton weren't there. "Where'd the two Bash bro's go to?" she asked them.

Julie shrugged and apparently, Connie wasn't paying attention. "I think they said they were going to the gas station to get some junk food or something like that." Adam said to her, Natalie nodded at that and started up her playstation game that she has been having trouble on.

By the time Portman and Fulton got back Adam, Charlie, Goldberg, Julie and Connie were laughing their asses off at Natalie's game expertise.

"NO DON'T KILL ME I WASN'T GOING TO HURT YOU. I JUST WANT TO KILL YOU NOTHING BAD." she yelled at the game she was playing.

Fulton was laughing at her and what she was doing; she looked back at him and glared at him not happy she was being laughed at. "Dean Fulton if you don't shut up I will hurt you two and you won't be happy wit the end results." she threatened. Portman held his hands up in a surrender way and Fulton just smirked at her.

"Fine be that way I won't kill you ruin all of my fun why don't you." she said to them both. Then she looked at them oddly seeing the many bags in their hands. "Where's the party guys and am I invited to it?" she said and looked at them.

"Very funny Natalie, no we're going back to Minneapolis tomorrow school starts in two days." Natalie smacked her head in an I should have known that way.

"So we have a lot of snackage for a two or three hour drive up there is that right?" they both nodded and Natalie smirked. "Okay coolness that means I gotta call my friend Kara, I'll be back in a sec okay." they nodded and she went to her room and phone her friend.

"Hello." Kara probably only just woke up since Natalie just called her. "Hi Kara its Natalie, I was hoping you could come here today and meet the band, I am leaving tomorrow and I totally forgot about it until my brother told me." Kara sighed and you could hear movement and sorts on the other side of the phone.

"I'll be at your house In forty-five minutes or so okay." Natalie yipped. "Thank you so much." Kara laughed. "Yeah yeah I know, I'll see ya in a bit." They hung up and Natalie headed back downstairs.

"So what's the verdict dear girlfriend of mine?" Fulton asked Natalie, Natalie smirked and sat by him. "I'm having my friend Kara meet me here and then I'm taking her to meet the band she's gonna be apart of now." Fulton brushed away a stray hair that had gotten out of its hold.

"So what are we doing?" Fulton asked her as he pulled her into his lap. "We are doing nothing, I am waiting for my friend and probably start packing too. Which most of you should do if you take forever to do I mean." she said and smiled happily at them.

Well you guys I'm hungry so I am making some food, you can have some but you're going to have to deal with what I make and it won't be anything too weird." she said and went to the kitchen to make some food for them all. Dean, Fulton, Charlie and Adam were all playing a video game of Natalie's. Charlie was getting his ass kicked but who cares. The door bell soon rang once Natalie was nearly finished making lunch.

Natalie was jumping up and down all the way to answer the door. The others were just staring at her not sure what to make of her new actions. She opened the door and launched herself at the girl who was standing there. The girl was laughing and jumping up and down along with Natalie, she was obviously happy to see Natalie.

"Hey Nat how are you?" Natalie led her in and shrugged. "Good, oh these are my friends and also my brother. That's Goldberg, Adam, Charlie, Julie, Connie, my brother Dean and my boyfriend Fulton." she said to Kara. Kara waved happily at them. "This is one of my best friends Kara Erdhardt."

Kara had short hair, but her bangs were really long, going near past her chin at least and they were dyed hot pink, the rest of her hair was somewhat short and in spikes of electric blue.

Her eyes were that really dark color of blue so it went very well with her hair, and she was also naturally tan from the Italian in her most likely. Natalie turned to the others and smiled at them sadly.

"There's some food out there I am going to go introduce her to the band I'll be back in a bit. Hopefully only a half an hour."

Natalie and Kara drove up to Pucks where the band was most likely. As Natalie walked in the music stopped and went to see why she was there and saw her friend who was with too.

"Guys this is Kara the one who is replacing me in the band. You will not be mean you will treat her as you treated me and she is like a sister to me okay." they nodded and Natalie pushed Kara to where Zeke was, she had a feeling that those two would get along fine together.

From what she saw she was correct about that as well, she watched them play a few songs together and felt satisfied with how it went. The were going to have to get used to her style of singing but other than that it went well.

"Well I'm gonna go back home, I'm leaving tomorrow to go up to the school and register for classes. I'll talk to you guys some time right?" she asked them, they looked at her like she was crazy.

Ishtar went and got something from the stage and brought it over to Natalie, it was in a tote like bag, he gave it to her. "Aww just what I always wanted, a bag." Neioth rolled his eyes. "Open it and see what's inside of it." she did as he suggested and her eyes went wide as saucers.

"You..you guys got me a lap top are you insane. This must have cost you guys a fortune." Ishtar gave her a hug and smirked at her. "We were going to wait to give it to you for Christmas but we couldn't wait so tada you have it now."

Natalie smiled brightly and thanked them all, very enthusiastically. Kara took something out of her bag and handed it to Natalie.

"I know its not much but you said that you've run out of them so I got you some new ones." In Natalie's hands were new drawing tools for her use and some notebooks as well for her writings.

"Kara thank you this means a lot to me, I just want you to know that." She hugged Kara and then left for home where she will only be spending one more day at if even that.

Natalie went inside and saw everyone was just laying around doing nothing practically. "Hey guys and girls." Julie looked up and saw her new accessories to her person and got curious. "So what are those?" she said looking at the art supplies.

"My friend Kara gave me these as a going away gift type of thing since she wont see me for many months and I also got a laptop from the band." Most if not all of them were in shock.

"Dude they got that for you, I want one. Man you are so lucky." Dean said to his sister. She shrugged and smirked at him. "Well I ma going to go up to my room and pack." Julie and Connie went with to help her and the boys stayed down stairs and watched TV and played Video games.

Natalie began picking the certain jewelry she may need and put them in plastic bags and set them in one of the suitcases. "damn how many pairs of shoes do you own? There are like millions in here." Julie said to her, Natalie looked back and smirked.

"I have tons more than that. Oh can you get the boots with springs in them and toss 'em over here." Julie found them but instead walked over and gave them to Natalie. Natalie shook her head but kept on doing what she was.

By the end of three in a half hours Natalie had her Hockey bag packed and two suit cases, one had shoes, accessories and pants and extra space in case she may buy some things the other had pants, dresses, skirts, shirts, dress shirts things like that and some of her poetry and her journal that she has.

Natalie decided to change out of her clothes seeing as it was nearing four or five in the afternoon. She changed in boxers and a baggy t-shirt that used to be her brothers but she reclaimed it as hers finally.

The other two girls did so too, so the three went down into the living room practically in Pj's, and the guys were looking at their legs in admiration of course. Natalie sat or rather laid down on Fulton's lap and watched TV with them. "So how was packing; knowing you, you probably have five bags."

Natalie gasped as if she was hurt by that. "I don't have five I have three. One for boots and other sorts and one for clothes and another for my Hockey gear." Dean rolled his eyes at his sister but didn't say anything really further about that.

They watched a few movies, Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy, XXX, fast and the furious and Interview with a vampire. Some of the best movies ever made known to mankind so far.

Pretty soon after they ate dinner and started another movie they began to get pretty tired, Natalie and Fulton fell asleep, with Natalie's head on Fulton's chest, Dean was laying on the floor with a small pillow the others were scattered out through out the floor and area around them.

It was the perfect scene for friends that have known each other for years, all but one has. But Natalie fit in just perfectly as if she had been friends with them forever and it never has been anything but so.
