Drew froze at the words Nico just said.
"What?" Nico shrugged.
"Okay, here's the deal; Christina isn't my adopted sister, she's my girlfriend. Your parents are alive, although they're only like fifteen years older than you. I didn't know how to explain that to you, so I kinda fudged the details a little." Doyle looked at Nico angrily.
"A little? You told us they were dead! I should just kick your…"
"Doyle! Shut up! He does have a point." Doyle looked at his sister.
"How does he have a point?" Drew thought about it for a second.
"Think about it; how would you have reacted if he had told us that they were alive, and that they had frozen in the Himalayas, and that now they're only like fifteen years older than us. That's a lot more that we'd have to accept than what he told us." She looked at Nico. "Frankly, I'm glad that there's a nice boy dating my little sister." Doyle started to go nuts.
"A nice kid?! Drew! He told us our parents were dead! He's a liar! He's scum!"
"Were you any different when you worked for Van Rook?" Doyle looked down. "I didn't think so." She walked over to Nico. "You're a good kid, Nico. I think you did the right thing." Nico nodded. "Don't listen to Doyle. He's an idiot."
"Hey! I'm not an idiot!" Drew looked over at Doyle.
"You said you were Christina's sister." Doyle's eyes bugged out.
"What? No I didn't!"
"Yeah you did. You flew in here, landed, and said, and I quote, 'Hi. I'm Doyle. I'm Christina's sister." Christina started laughing.
"I did not! Your all idiots!" Nico looked at Drew.
"Your little sister is throwing a tantrum." Doyle pointed at Nico.
"Shut up or I will kick your mother…"
"Doyle! Stop swearing! Your gonna get us kicked off the island!"
"Yeah. Stop throwing a tantrum, little girl." Suddenly, Doyle ran over to Nico and tried to hit him. Nico dodged him. "You even hit like a girl. Here's a man does it." Nico spun, kicked Doyle in the chest, then punched him in the face. Doyle fell over. Then Lisa came over and kicked him in the head.
"That's for trying to hit my baby." Christina walked over and kissed Nico.
"I think we should leave. My other sister seems to be a loser. You wanna come with us Drew." Drew nodded.
"Anything's better than watching my sister twitching on the ground."
"Shut up!" Doyle moaned. The trio walked into the house, followed by the rest of them, with Doyle limping his way into the house. The inside of the house was quite nice. The group sat down for coffee. Then Drew noticed something; Nico and Christina were noticeably absent from the group.
"Hey, where's Nico and Christina?" Lisa shrugged.
"Probably downstairs. They don't like hanging out up here much." Drew raised an eyebrow.
"Why?"
"It's too hot for there tastes." Doyle looked at her.
"Too hot? It's like 66 degrees in here."
"Yeah, well they prefer 56. Downstairs is fairly cooler than up here." Drew stood up.
"I wanna talk to them. Can you tell me where they are?" Lisa pointed at a door.
"Through that door and down the stairs." Drew walked over to the door and walked down the stairs.
"I should've worn a jacket," she said to herself. She looked over at Christina and Nico, who were playing blackjack. "Hey guys." Nico looked back.
"Hey Drew. What's up? You wanna play blackjack?"
"Maybe later. I was wondering when I could see my parents." Nico took off his aviator sunglasses.
"You could see them now if you want. There's a shortcut to there house through that door. Go get Doyle." Drew ran up and dragged Doyle downstairs.
"Jeez! It's freezing down here!"
"Shut up Doyle! Do you want to see our parents or not?" Doyle nodded. The group walked through the small, poorly lighted hallway that led to the house. They climbed up the stairs and reached a door. Drew rang the doorbell. There was silence. Then a man opened the door.
"Yeah, can I help you?" Drew looked at him.
"Dad?" The man's eyes grew wide.
"Drew?" There was silence. Then the two hugged each other. "Drew! I thought you were dead! After the storm I.."
"Dad. I'm fine. So is Doyle." The man looked over at Doyle.
"Doyle?"
"Hi dad." Then, a woman walked in.
"Honey who is…." Drew and Doyle looked at the woman.
"Mom?" they asked in unison. The woman just stood there in shock.
"You, your supposed to be, you are…" They ran over and hugged their mom. Nico watched from the hall with Christina.
"You know Christina, I always do like a happy ending."
"Nico, it's not over yet." Nico looked at her. Then she kissed him on the lips.
"Wow. Now that's what I call a happy ending."
Wait! It's not over yet. Stay tuned for another explosive chapter of "The Mystery of the Saturdays!!!!!" Please Review!!!
