Wow! I woke up to a lot of reviews! Thank you! Make sure you let me know what story I should do next!

It was July now and I can walk on my own. My side was still sore but at least I don't have to be stuck in my room anymore. Don't get me wrong I love being in my room just not like that.

Dad was going to have a big 4th of July barbecue. Which it suprised me because I've never seen him like this. How do I put it in words? Mr.Cleaver.

I actually got to shower now! Yeah! I spent 4 hours in the bathtub. Dad thought I was insane. Kathy was coming over to help me and mom make food for the party that can be refridgerated. Did I tell you that we have a built in pool? Dad got it in when I was 9. He said it'd helping him with his training. Yeah right.

"Are you making your famous brownies?" Dad asked me.

"Maybe." I said.

"Dean leave her alone." Mom said. She was boiling water for her infamous patotoe salad.

"Well the yards all mowed and the pool has toys in it." Dad said getting a beer from the fridge.

"Can't believe I'm actually going to see you in shorts." I said.

"I love your dad in shorts." mom said kissing him.

"You do?" He said grinning.

"It makes me feel like I have a different husband." She said joking.

"Not funny." Dad said.

"Sorry I'm late." Kathy said coming in the back door. "I had to help my mom for awhile."

"How is she?" Dad asked.

"She's getting better. She can get up on her own now." Kathy said. "Dad's home."

Her mom had cancer surgery. It's been 3 months since she had it and the doctors say she's still cancer free.

Kathy was wearing a spaghetti strap shirt with black shorts and sandles. My dad looked at her in shock.

"Kathy, I didn't know you owned anything like that?" He said in a rush not blinking.

"It's summer, Dean." She said.

To tell you the truth I was shocked too. My nerdy friend was dressed better than I was right now in dark green sweatshorts and a white tank top.

"Dean you could get arressted for staring like that." mom said joking.

Dad cleared his throat. "Sorry. I think I'm going to clean the grill." He took his beer outside.

"I'm sorry Kathy. Dean's not usually like that." mom said.

"It's okay. I'm shocked too. It's just that it's so hot out." she said.

"Porkchop! Get out of the sink!" I said laughing.

Mom and Kathy turned to see Porkchop floating in the sink water that was supposed to be cleaning the potatoes. They started laughing. I know what your thinking. Most cats hate water but mine? She loves it!

Dad came running in. "What's so funny?" We pointed and he looked. "That is the weirdest cat I ever laid eyes on."

Mom got her camera and took a picture of it. "I love these moments." She said.

"Come one Porkchop." I grabbed her soaking wet body out. She jumped out of my hands and landed with a soft thud on the kitchen floor. Then she shook herself dry. Water splattered.

"I wonder where Sam got that cat." Dad said.

Uncle Sammy was the one that took me to get her.

His only answer was Porkchop meowing and walking out of the room.
