Author's note: Yeah, I know, I haven't updated for a while. I decided to give this account a rest for a while. This chapter has the reasoning behind how Kaylee knew Trent was afraid of tigers.
Chapter 5: Memories
Kim explained that she had had a little girl, their daughter. Jason and Tommy stood in shock. Kaylee laughed, Tommy and Jason's face reminded her of the day she arrived at the house.
Kaylee was unpacking when her new older brother came strolling in. She had just put her clothes in their proper spots. Most of her clothes were green for some reason. Green was her favorite color, but she was overdoing it. She pulled out her stuffed lion Wendy. Trent screamed when he saw it.
"Get that thing out of here" he yelped. Kaylee rolled her eyes. She picked it up and put it in his face.
"What's the matter? Afraid of a cat" she asked him teasingly. Trent swatted the stuffed animal away from him and ran out of the room. She followed him.
"What do you think you're still doing with that thing" he asked. She put her hands on her hips.
"Trent, it's just a stuffed animal" she told him squeezing it. He was on his bed now staring at it in fear.
"Oh yeah! Try having a real life one about to eat you and then put yourself in my shoes" he shrieked. Kaylee giggled. Their father came in.
Kaylee laughed even harder now. The memory was clear in her mind now. Trent looked over at her.
"What are you laughing at" he asked. She turned away from him laughing so hard that tears were flowing down her cheeks.
"S-Sorry c-can't h-help i-it" she gasped. The others turned to her and stared. She told them what had happened and they also laughed. Trent blushed madly.
"Um, sorry to interrupt, but mom's coming home soon Conner, and she'll want us to be ready" the boy who looked like Conner said poking his head in. The others turned to leave when Conner stopped them.
"Wait, you guys can stay at my house for dinner" he invited. The look-alike rolled his eyes.
"Conner, I don't think that's such a good idea………" he began. Conner growled.
"Shut up Eric" he told his look-alike. They began to fight, but Jason and Tommy got in the way. The boys reached over Tommy and Jason's arms and swatted each other. Both older men sighed. They pushed them farther apart.
"Idiot" Conner yelled.
"Jerk" Eric yelled back. Neither boy was getting tired, but Jason and Tommy were.
"How long can these two go on" Jason sighed. The teens chuckled. Tommy sent a death glare at them. They'd been hanging out at the McKnight's house for a while.
"Just let them go at it, it's easier" Kaylee said. Tommy and Jason let the boys go. Conner tackled Eric and they began to punch each other.
"Why didn't you tell us before" Jason asked the teens. The teens laughed.
"You needed to learn the hard way. And plus, it was fun" Trent told him. The first time the teens watched Conner and Eric fight, they had tried to hold them back. After a while, they let the twins go at it. Finally, Conner and Eric got off each other and dusted themselves off.
"Sorry man" Conner said extending his hand.
"Me too bro" Eric told him taking his hand. They patted each other's back. They turned around to see a very angry Jason and Dr. O.
"Sorry" Conner said. Jason stopped glaring, but Tommy didn't. Eric cocked an eyebrow.
"Dude, stop staring at me" he told him. Tommy rolled his eyes.
"Don't call me dude" he growled. The four teens chuckled at this response. They'd heard it plenty of times.
"What's so funny" Eric asked.
"Dr. O is probably so used to this that it rolls off his tongue easily" Conner explained. Tommy also began to laugh. He had to agree with Conner.
"Isn't that true. I've had so much practice with Conner" he chuckled.
"Too much" Kira told him. Tommy sighed, it was great to have the kids back. It was strange, but he actually enjoyed hanging out with the kids. It was like he was reliving his teen years all over again, but with a new spice in life. Then, a new car parked in the driveway, the parents.
"Sorry we're late boys, your mother had to make sure she got everything we needed" their father groaned. Their mother slapped him on the head playfully.
"We needed enough food for my growing boys. And plus, I don't want to go back to the grocery store tomorrow" she said. Then, they noticed the others.
"Hi Mrs. McKnight, Mr. McKnight" Tommy greeted. Their parents smiled. They had known Tommy and his friends from high school.
"Tommy, Kim, Jason! It's nice to see you again" Mrs. McKnight exclaimed. Eric and Conner rolled their eyes when she said this. It had always annoyed them when she did that.
"Hi Tommy. Have you seen the latest baseball game? What do you think about the California Sharks" Mr. McKnight asked clapping Tommy on the back. Whenever they would see each other, Tommy and Conner's dad would start talking about the latest baseball, soccer, hockey, karate, or football game.
"Yeah, that was an awesome save by the outfielders. Did you watch the karate tournament" Tommy asked. The two went off to talk about sports while the girls talked about fashion.
"Mom, can they all stay for dinner? Please" Conner begged his mom. She stopped talking to Kim and smiled.
"Of course honey" she said before going back to talking. Eric groaned.
"I'll never know how you do that" he said. Conner grinned.
"It's easy when you're the youngest" he told hi brother. Eric snorted. They went up to their room with the other teens following.
"What? By four minutes" Eric asked sarcastically. Conner nodded. Kim came up into the twins' room and went over to them.
"Hey Kim" Conner said. Nobody knew that Tommy had followed Kim up. Kim ruffled Conner's hair.
"Hey! Watch the hair" Eric said as she went to ruffle his. Kim laughed.
"Don't worry cuz, it won't be messier than it already is" she said. Tommy gasped.
