Hey! People have been asking me if last chapter was the end but it's not! I really don't wanna end on chapter 13 (13's my unlucky number) so I'm thinking I'll do this chapter and one after it and then I'm done! But I've got no clue about what I'm gonna do in this chapter! Well, hope you like it!
Chapter 13 : Home LifeThe day after the party, everything was back to normal. It was just like the past few weeks just hadn't happened. The only changes were that Jessica and especially Kim had a much closer bond with Mike and Jake. So in the end, Kim hadn't lost anything, she'd just gained two best friends. She had decided though, that as she had wasted almost two whole months on sadness and worry, she wasn't going to bother doing that anymore. Her new motto was – Every moment you spend upset, is a moment of happiness that you won't get back.
Yeah, it wasn't exactly her usual logic, but it made sense to her.
Well anyway, things had gotten so back to normal, that it was boring. But it was a Sunday, and nothing much ever happened on a Sunday. Of course, if any other family saw the Baker house, and saw Mike repelling from the roof, and Jake trying to skateboard over Nigel and Kyle, they would think a LOT was happening at the Baker house, but to the Baker's – Sunday was a peaceful day. Well as peaceful as the Bakers could be, which compared to others isn't much.
Kim and Jessica sat at their desks, doing some last minute homework for school the next day. Jessica told Kim that she was just going to the bathroom, and then left. Kim glanced at the homework that Jessica had been doing, when she realized that it was the writing about their home lives – the same thing that Kim had been working on. Kim couldn't help herself – she needed to read it.
I'm Jessica Baker, and I'm eight. I've got 11 siblings – 4 sisters and 7 brothers. I get on okay with all of them, well sort of. Even if I'm not getting on with them though, I still love them.
First, there's Nora. She's twenty-three, and really motherly. She loves all of her younger brothers and sisters, even though we drive her crazy. The main reason why she's so great is because with her, it's like having a second mom.
Second, there's Charlie. He's eighteen and really good at sport. He has a really nice girlfriend called Beth, who he doesn't get to see very often because she lives back where we used to live. The main reason that I love him is because even though he's really busy with high school and everything, he'll always be the first to suggest the whole family have a big game of football outside.
Next, came Lorraine, who's sixteen. She's really popular, but really nice too. She loves make up and anything sparkly or glittery. I think she'll be a fashion stylist when she grows up. I love her because, if you ever wanted to look pretty for something, she'd always be willing to help you, no doubt about it.
Then it's Henry. He's 13. I don't get on with Henry too much; I probably get on with him least but that doesn't mean that I don't love him. He plays the clarinet, and is really talented – he'll be a great musician when he's older. I like him so much because yeah he's a little annoying, but he's a good guy really.
Next is Sarah. She's twelve, and I really admire her, because she'll always stand her ground. Also – she's very devious and great at making up pranks. What I love most about her is that she doesn't care what anyone thinks of her, but everyone likes her, because she's so carefree.
Then it's Jake. Jake is one of my favourite siblings, because he gets you through the hard times. He's a really good skateboarder, and probably the most laidback in our family. The reason why I love him so much is because he's always got your back – no matter how mean you are to him.
Then it's Mark. Mark's really sweet, and wouldn't hurt a fly. He loves nature, and animals – especially frogs. What I love about him is that he's completely harmless.
Then its, well, Kim and me. Kim's my favourite sibling because we've spent basically our whole lives with each other, but also because we have the same interests and everything. I love how feisty she is, and how clever and generous. But most of all, I love that to her, I'm always her sister, no matter who her Mom and Dad are.
Next is Mike, who's just turned seven. Mike is also a favourite brother of mine. I love how he looks so small (he's the smallest in my family, even smaller than my four year old brothers) and cute, but he's a little soldier on the inside. He'll fight people almost twice the size of him, and win. But half of the time, he's doing to protect people who can't stick up for them. What I love most about him is although he has trouble with reading and things like that, he doesn't let it get him down.
Last, and definitely not least, are Nigel and Kyle. They're the most hilarious little guys ever. Not to mention chaotic with a capital C. What I love so much about them is their spunk, the fact that they'll do anything and they don't really care (or notice) who's watching.
So that's my family. Yeah there's a lot of us, and you won't like the sound of some of us, but that's just how we are. And that's how we'll stay.

I thought that was a cute chapter. Pointless, but cute. Anyway, next chapter is gonna be my last! I kind of in a way don't want to end it, it was my first fic and I'm a little nervous that my other ones won't be as good. But I know if I carry on with this one, it'll end with Nigel and Kyle being abducted by aliens or something. Hey there's an idea, maybe I'll do that with my next fic… Just Kidding!
Well review, and bye! Love Kaylee xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
