Hiiiiiii! I wanted to start off by thanking the guest reader that gave me the spelling for Magnolia and Akila! For some weird reason I couldn't find them in my books. Also I just learned how to preview my writing, and I learned that it is all REALLY SHORT. Sorry about that! Now, I will try to post longer chapters, but I won't be able to post as often. On that note, happy reading!
Ella POV (Yay, someone other than Max!)
The second I hop off the bus from High School, and walk through the door, Total, Akila, and Magnolia come to greet me.
"Ella! The Flock is coming to visit! They better bring the ladies and I some bacon." Total says, looking at me with tiny wings flapping. My reaction is a very simple three step process. First I run to my mom to check if Total is right, next I squeal, third, I turn to Total with a confused look.
"What's wrong with the bacon I got you?" I ask.
"I ate it already." Total says as Akila barks. I roll my eyes, and turn to mom,
"When are they coming?"
"I don't know sweetie. All I know is that they are on there way. Do you want to order out tonight, or would you like me to make dinner?" Mom replies.
"Can we get pizza? Pleeaassee?" I beg.
"Sure, Ella please go clean your room before Max, and the others arrive."
"Okay." I head upstairs to clean up, and I start thinking about the members of the Flock. Max, my badass half-sister, Fang who by now better be dating Max! I swear I caught them ogling each other three hundred fifty two times, in one day! There's also Angel, super cute, but last time we saw each other she mind controlled me into doing the chicken dance. Nudge, the super-talker, I bet I couldn't beat her in a speed talking competition if I tried! Then there is Gazzy, who I have learned to ALWAYS stand upwind from, and his partner in crime, Iggy. How can I explain Iggy? He's tall, skinny, like the others, but he's funny, and smart, and- I laugh to myself, I am starting to sound like Nudge! Well yeah, there's Iggy. I shake my head, and continue with my cleaning. The doorbell rings, and I rush to get it. Don't want our pizza getting cold! I open the door, but no one is there. Hmm… that's odd.
"BOO!" The Flock screams as the jump out of their hiding spots!
"AHH!" I scream, and then burst into laughter. They all pile in through the door, hugging mom, the dogs, and me, all of them trying to talk at once. The loudest of all, is of course, you guessed it, Nudge. I say hi to Max first. Then Fang, who was yet again, staring at Max! Seriously, they are starting to get predictable! Nudge, Gazzy, and Angel all tackle me at once, and I fall onto the ground. I blink for a second, then see a hand held out, reaching for mine. I grab it, and the next thing I know, I am breathless in Iggy's strong embrace. Have you ever had one of those really awkward moments where you are so close to someone's face that you could kiss them? Well folks, that's what happened. I bet you won't be able to guess who pulled away first! Me.
Max POV (sorry guys;p)
After our little greeting was over, I pulled Fang aside, and asked him, "Was it just me, or did Iggy look like he was about to kiss Ella?! That is not right, they are...uh...nevermind I guess it's fine." I say looking defeated. Fang shrugs and pulls me back into the other room as mom assigns rooms.
"Iggy, Fang, you two will share the room that Iggy and Gazzy normally sleep in-"
"Does that mean I get my own room?!" Gazzy says, his still not there eyebrows reaching his hairline.
"As I was saying," mom continues, "Gazzy gets Fangs room, so this way nobody will have to worry about his, err, stinky situation at night." I roll my eyes, "Max you are by yourself, and you two are together." mom says as she points her fingers at Angel and Nudge.
"Why do I have to share a room with Angel when Max and Gazzy get their own rooms? Being a middle child is sooo not fair! I mean think of all the times the oldest three have gotten what they want, and Angel, and Gazzy, and even Total get things that I don't and I me-" Nudge exclaimes.
"Nudge, sweetie, I am sure you get things they don't too. Like, um, guys help me out here." mom stammers.
"You have a great fashion sense?" I say just trying to end the conversation.
"You're right, I do! Haha, I have fashion sense, and you don't!" Nudge teases.
"Come on guys! Let's go play with Total, Akila, and Magnolia!" Angel cheers, glad that Nudge is happy. The three youngest run off and Iggy and Ella head to the kitchen to talk about some cooking thing probably. I look on the shelves to find a board game, or something that we could all do together after dinner. The only game that I can find, however, is Twister. I sigh, and walk towards the kitchen as Iggy calls us for dinner.
*****************************************BORING DINNER CONVERSATIONS**********************
"Guys do you want to play Twister?" I ask hoping that I can sit out in order to avoid awkward moments.
"Okay, Max, Fang, Iggy, and Ella are the last people in, the game is getting small!" Nudge says, her motormouth being used as an announcer.
"Right hand on red!" Gazzy says imitating Angel's voice.
"Heeyyy!" Angel whines. It happens in slow motion, my right hand hits Fang's has we both reach for the red dot, a jolt of electricity makes it's way up my arm, and to my face, filling it with color. Is that the worst of it? Noooo, It can't be that simple right? Ugh, my life! Fang falls, making me slip, and knock into Ella, who falls on top of Iggy. By the end of it we all are very red in the face. We stack fists, and head to our rooms.
Did you like it? Any suggestions? Corrections? I'm sorry, I know it is not long, however it is longer than what I normally post. Bye!
