Chapter 5
Margaret Kennedy, now sixteen, was suspicious. The family had recently moved to Las Vegas and were now settled in and doing well at school, things seemed to be going great. What made her suspicious however was that her brother, Ed, while he had long since got over his failed relationship with Allison DiLaurentis, was even more cheerful than usual.
'I don't get it, it's strange, Ed is unusually upbeat and perky these days.' She noted to herself.
Just then her brother himself appeared, entering the kitchen and picking up an apple.
"Hi Ed." She greeted him with her usual cheer.
Ed grinned. "Hi Maggie, what's up?"
She paused and decided now was as good a time as any to ask. "Um…Ed, what's with you, what's got you all chipper all of a sudden?"
Ed grinned broadly at that and sat down at the table.
"Well, you remember how Ali said I'd find someone else?" He asked, she nodded and he continued. "Well, I have."
Margaret gasped and, overjoyed, hugged him. She was so relieved and happy her brother had found somebody.
"Wow, Ed, that's great." She said happily.
Ed nodded and began to tell her about his new girlfriend, Lindsey Willows. Margaret smiled as she listened as Ed spoke about this girl. She was amazed and the more she heard, the more eager she was to meet her.
"Wow, she sounds really nice." She said afterwards.
Ed nodded. "Yeah, she is. Her mother works with the CSIs in the town…"
Margaret was even more surprised at that, smiling.
"I um, I invited her over for dinner in a few days." He then revealed.
Margaret grinned. "Excellent, I can't wait to meet her."
Ed nodded, he was nervous, she could see that. She knew why too, but wasn't worried, she was certain their parents would love this girl.
A few days later, Lindsey smiled nervously as she held her boyfriend's hand. Ed was taking her for dinner at his home, she was going to meet his family for the first time. The door was answered by a girl, the same age as Ed, with similar features to him.
"Hi there." She said, smiling warmly.
Ed grinned. "Hey. Lindsey, this is my sister, Margaret."
She smiled and held out her hand. "Nice to meet you."
Margaret nodded and shook hands with her and they entered the house. It was then Anne entered.
"Hey mom." Margaret greeted.
Ed smiled and spoke. "Mom, this is Lindsey."
Lindsey smiled politely. "Mrs. Kennedy."
"Hello dear, it's nice to meet you." She said.
Liam was then introduced to her and they headed through for dinner. Over dinner the family spoke, mainly getting to know Lindsey. Lindsey enjoyed herself immensely, her nervousness slowly fading away.
She loved Anne's cooking and said so, earning an approving smile from Anne. Later, Lindsey sat with Margaret and the two talked.
"So, Ed's last girlfriend, turned out to be gay?" She asked, surprised.
Margaret nodded; she had been telling her about her and Ed's past, including Allison and the other girls.
"Yeah, it was a shock at the time." Margaret said.
Lindsey smiled. "Well, you don't have to worry about me in that regard, I assure you, I'm straight."
Margaret laughed. "It's no trouble, don't worry about it."
Both girls grinned, clearly already forming a fast friendship.
