Chapter 5 The Boogies

"Sal wake up," said Jack kissing her forehead. Sally woke up and then jumped on Jack and kissed him.

"Your sister is so nice," she said.

"I knew you'll like her," he said with a grin.

Then they went down to breakfast. It was the same breakfast as the day before. Down at the table were Lucy and Kia. They were eating, even if it's proper to wait until all the guesses arrived. Sally and Jack took two empty sits beside each other. Sally took some rooting eggs. Jesse came running and jumped on the empty chair. She started stuffing herself. It was awkward, for everyone else.

"Yes, how was your sleep Jack?" asked Lucy.

"Good Mom," he said.

"Today the Boogies are coming over," Lucy said. Jack dropped fork.

'Do they know about Oogie?' he thought.

"Oh god," said Jesse annoyed.

"What?" said Kia, "they are wonderful people!"

"I'm not poplar with the Boogies," said Jack.

"Honey don't say that they love you," said Lucy.

"Just wait," said Sally. Kia looked at her with confusion.

"Kia don't ask questions," said Jack.

They all ate breakfast. Lucy called the Boogies, after the ten minutes she told the gang that they'll be there in 30 minutes. Ten minutes later Jackie with her family came back. Everyone started talking. Then the doorbell rang and Ace and Queen Boogie walked in. Just two big potatoes sacks, one had makeup on, it was so ugly. Lucy invited them to sit on a chair. The moment they sat people felt awkward. Jack tried not to look at them; he felts regrets about Oogie's death.

"Jack!" Queen said, "It's been so long since I've seen the Pumpkin King!" She went and hugged Jack. She almost broke his rips.

"Hello," Jack said like he didn't want to be there.

"I finally see you," she said.

"How's your son?" asked Jackie.

"We haven't heard from him in five years," said Ace.

"He must be so busy with the casino he wants to build," Queen said.

"Not really," said Jack.

"You've heard from Oogie," Queen said hopeful.

"He got in trouble," Jack said. 'They have to know one day.'

"What kind of trouble?" Ace said worried.

"Dad what happen?" asked Kia.

"He tried to murder Santa, Sally and me. Then tried to take over the seven holidays and become the seven holidays king. (A/N See the video game Oogie's Revenge) And to save the holiday world, he was … killed," Jack said felling so sorry. Queen fell in ties. Kia and Jackie gasped.

"What! We won't invented to the funeral!" yelled Ace.

"Lock, Shock and Barrel didn't do a funeral yet," Sally said.

"Oh god," Ace put his hand on his head.

"I know this must hurt really badly but I think its better for you to know," Jack said sadly.

"Yes … but …it's …so …sad," Queen gasped her words.

"Queen I'm so sorry. I felt the same way when Liam died," Lucy said talking about her husband.

"Mommy who's Oogie," asked Rachel.

"Just a friend," Jackie said sadly.

"I'm so sorry, but it was for the good of the holidays," Jack said. Sally rolled her eyes and looked away. 'Jack don't make it worst,' she thought.

"Honey you want to leave?" asked Ace.

"NO! Don't leave," said Lucy.

"I have too," she said. Queen got up and with her husband's arm around her walked out of the house.

"What a short visit. Hey does someone want to play cards!" Jesse said jumping up and down.

Lucy left to the kitchen, Kia and Jackie followed. Jack got the cards.

"Poker?" he asked.


I know it's short and all. WELL review!!
