Chapter Seven
"How about Lord of the Rings!" Silky said excitedly.
"You just want to see Legolas." Jess said smiling slightly.
Silky flushed, "So! You watch it just to see Pippin!"
"What's Lord of the Rings?" Davie asked.
"A movie. Someone put it in." Kit said in a bored voice.
After seeing one movie the boys insisted on watching the other two.They ended up staying up and watching all of their favorite parts again and then talking about it.
Jack leaned back in his chair, "I liked the parts with the blonde fighting doll."
"You mean Eowyn?" Irish asked. Jack nodded with a grin.
"I liked the part where Legolas slid down the stairs." came a quiet mumble from the corner.
"Spot liked the part where Legolas slid down the stairs!" Mor screeched. After which she burst into hysterical laughter.
"Hey whats the matter with liking that part?" asked Mush defiantly," I liked it!"
"I liked it too."Silky put in. In the background you could still here Mor laughing hysterically.
"It probably sounded strange coming from you, Spot." Kit said smiling. Then she turned to Mor,"Shut up!"
Then Davie said incredously,"You actually liked those movies?"
The next morning at 7:00 am everyone was up and at the table eating something. Then they sat planning their day.
"We have to stay home today." Mor said.
"I think because it's Sunday, we should have a day where we aren't as active."Silky said
"I'm going to read." Gabby looked up from her book."Anyone want to join me?"
"I would but I don't know how to read."Mush said a little embarrased.
"I'll help you."Irish offered
"OK"
Once they were done eating Gabby, Irish, Mush, and Davie all hurried upstairs to the libary. After a few minutes Race slouched up the stairs to join the group in the libary.Spot, Jack, and Blink plopped down on the couch and turned the tv on. In the den, Kit worked on the story she was writing about the experience. Flip joined her with her headphones on and a book in hand.Mor and Silky were playing a game of battleship when they all heard it - a loud thump from the library upstairs.
Irish stood up and threw the book across the room. "What do you not understand!" she yelled. "It is one of the most simple things!"Mush eyed her warily and chose not to speak.
"If you don't understand then get someone else to teach you!"
"Irish," Gabby peeked around a shelf,"control yourself."
"How do people stand teaching! I don't understand how they do it."
"I don't think you quite have the patience to teach."Gabby said in a quiet controlled voice.
"She definitely does not have the patience to teach." said Race who had come to where they were from the back of the libary.
Kit jumped up and rushed out the room, almost knocking over Silky in her rush.She took the stairs two at a time and threw open the libary door.
"What happened?" she asked, eyes wide and quite breathless. Behind her the others came in quietly.
"Someone lost her temper and threw a book." Race was looking at where Irish stood her face red. Kit sank into a chair near the door and closed her eyes.
"You scared me!"
"Sorry, I don't think I quite have enough patience to teach anything." Irish looked quite apolegeitc.During the discussion Mush had gotten up and gotten the book.He spoke for the first time since everyone had entered.
"I don't think there is any damage done to the book.Here,"he handed Kit the book. Kit carefully checked the book and the pronounced it to be fine.After putting it up she turned to everyone in the room."I think we should go swimming at least for a little bit."
With everyones nod of agreement they changed and headed outside.For a few hours they did this and then went in for lunch.
