Chapter 5

Spaghetti and ........ Tickling Lobsters??????

I smiled up at Seth and he let me go and went into his room. I went down stairs to the kitchen. I had always prepared dinner at home because mom was an absolutely horrible cook, well that was an exaggeration she was a "creative" cook just because 90% of her food was unedible it was not her fault. My dad had taught me to cook at an early age and it was something that I truly enjoyed. I pawed through the fridge and came up with the fixings for spaghetti. I set to work making dinner.

I had finished the meat sauce and had just popped the garlic bread in the oven and started on the salad when the front door opened and Kyle came running into the kitchen, Sue and Charlie were hot on his heels. " Sarah you didn't have to cook dinner I would have thrown something together" Sue said putting her handbag on the table. "It's not problem Sue I like to cook and I knew that you had been working all day" I said tossing the salad. Charlie smiled at me as he went to the fridge and got out a beer, "uhhh Billy will be here tonight to watch the game" He said as he ducked out of the kitchen and into the lounge room.

I finished tossing the salad together with a little olive oil. Usually I would have made a more complicated dressing with mustard seeds and balsamic vinegar, but I didn't know if the family would like it as it was a spicy/tangy mix. I placed the salad in the fridge and stirred the spaghetti sauce. Seth came running in the kitchen with a dreamy look on his face, "mmmmmm I smell good food mmmmmmmm" he said following his nose to the stove where the sauce was simmering.

"Oh no you don't not until dinner time, AND you have taken out the trash AND you have washed your hands AND Billy is here" I said smacking his hands away from the sauce. Seth turned and looked at me with the good hurt puppy dog expression. "And that look Seth Clearwater will not work on me!" Seth glared at me and turned to grab the trash bag out of the bin.

I opened the cupboard above the sink and pulled out the plates we would require for dinner 7 plates (A/N Sarah, Billy, Seth, Leah, Charlie, Kyle and Sue) and placed them on the bench. Seth came running back into the kitchen. "Billy just pulled in the drive now can we eat?"

"Did you wash your hands?"

"Urghh you are worse than mom." Seth went to the sink and furiously started scrubbing his hands. I watched the dirty water run down the drain. He grabbed some paper towels and dried his hands and threw the balled up paper in the bin. "Happy all clean now" he asked holding his hands up to my face.

"Well they are cleaner than before" I said "You can help me dish up"

I strained the noodles over the sink and handed Seth the colander. I picked up the plates and proceeded to add the noodles to each plate followed by a healthy dumping of spaghetti sauce and meatballs.

Seth placed the plates on the table and pulled the oven open. He proceeded to pull out the garlic bread out with his bare hands. "Seth you will burn yourself" I scolded handing him the oven mitts, he just winked at me and pull the mitts on. I started to giggle here was a sight a 6foot plus man with lobster claw mitts on. Seth mock glared at me and started to pince the claws together and advance towards me.

"Oh No you don't lobster boy" I said grabbing the dish towel from the sink. Seth came closer and closer. I twirled the dish towel menacingly knowing that if he came any closer would snap him. I backed up slowly and Seth lunged at me, I couldn't hold in the laughter any more and started to laugh in earnest, laughing hard Seth chased me around the table. I ducked and weaved but to no avail Seth caught me and we tumbled to the ground.

The relentless tickling started and I was laughing so hard that tears ran down my face. "Ahem" I looked up to see Billy, Charlie, Sue and Kyle looking at Seth and I. I was pinned to the floor by Seth and he had one of the oven mitted hands holding my nose and the other hand was tickling my side. I blushed a deep crimson and tried to push Seth off me to no avail he weighed a tonne.

Seth looked at his mother who was trying to hide a smile (very unsuccessfully) he gave her a guilty look and jumped up away from me. I got to my feet and resumed dishing up dinner.

After dinner and a round of "that was great Sarah's" I put the dishes in the sink and started the hot water running , I added a healthy dose of washing up liquid. I had just plunged my hands into the water when the doorbell rang. I groaned internally I knew that Charlie, Billy and Seth were engrossed in the game that was playing on the flat screen and Sue, Kyle and Leah had gone down to La Push to visit with some friends. I wiped my hands on a dish towel as I went to the front door.

I opened the door and gasped in surprise……………………………
