Flames welcome...
Melanie placed a hue roasted chicken in the middle of the table, and Jake carved it. "To our new neighbors." He toasted as he cut the meat away from the bone.
From Jake the order clockwise around the table was thus: Jake, Melanie, Mikey, Aerin, Jaisen, Jill, Eric, Eleanor, Emily, Justin, and Hannah. Jake and Eric were at the heads of the table.
Everyone ate quietly. When they were done, Justin was instructed to take Emily, Eleanor, and Jaisen out back to hang out. Jill and Melanie cleaned up the food, and Eric and Jake talked in the living room. Aerin babysat Mikey, and Hannah tagged along.
Jaisen and Justin were tossing a foot ball back and forth while Ellie and Emmy talked on the steps. "Hey, Em, catch!" Jaisen tossed the ball at his sister. The cheerleader caught it, and heard her brother say, "Tackle football."
Before she knew it, she was on the ground under the two boys, and Ellie walked over and sat on Jaisen's back, who was laying on top of Justin, who was smashing Emily into the ground. "Jaisen, when I get up, you are so dead. Worse than dead because I am going to kill you, bury you, and burn your grave." Emily wriggled under the weight of the pile.
"Oh, my God!" Jill ran out of the house. "Get off of her."
The pile dissipated, and Emily stood, and wiped her clothing off. "Mom, we were just playing." She protected her baby brother.
"I don't care. You two, go home." She said to her twin daughters.
The two waved goodbye to Justin, and headed home slowly. "That sucks." Ellie screamed.
"It's not our fault, and we get into trouble for it." Emmy added.
"It is your fault." Ellie turned on her sister.
"What?" Emmy shrieked.
"If you had been a girl, and not caught the ball we wouldn't be on our way home right now, while everyone else is having a good time." Ellie said, and ran inside, up the stairs, and locked her sister out of their room.
"El, open the door." Emily tried. "Come on, Ellie. Please. Don't make me go get Mom. Fine, Eleanor, I'm going to go across the street.", and she did.
Emily snuck to the back of the house, and got her brother's attention. "Ellie locked me out of my room." She whispered.
"Meet us out front." Jaisen replied, and he and Justin ran inside the house.
The three met in front of the large plantation and ran across the street. "Ellie, open the door." Jaisen demanded.
"Like I didn't try that." Em replied sarcastically.
"El, I'm going to smoke you out." Their brother tried again.
"Watch out." Justin knelt in front of the door, and picked the lock.
"Thank you." Emily replied, and went into her room. "Stay here." She closed the door behind her.
The two boys could hear things being thrown, and voices yelling, but it was all at once so they couldn't make out anything. "You guys can come in." Emily opened the door.
Jaisen plopped into a swivel chair for the computer desk, and Justin sat rigidly on the edge of the bed.
The three Masseys and the one Perry became instant friends that night.
Author's Note: Review, and let me know what you think... I know it's short but I'm in class right now, sorry...
