I finally got the writing itch! Three times... and voilà! One chapter! 'Though Word says it's only 700 words, I think word count is broken...
Dedicated to everyone who's reviewed and been so nice to me! I've almost got one hundred reviews! ONE HUNDRED! (Personal record!)
Danielle sighed happily and nodded once to her accomplishment, she'd just cleaned the Dining room, it took her two hours.
"What're you doing?" Galen asked from the doorway.
She frowned. "Why're you home? It's only 11 o'clock…"
"Quinn texted Ash, he dragged me here with him." Galen shrugged. "We do it all the time, the teachers email us our homework."
Gasping, Danielle exclaimed. "You skip school!"
"You cleaned the strategy room!" Quinn yelled as he stuck his head 'round the door.
"Strategy room?" She asked.
"Errrr, he means Dining room!" Galen discreetly elbowed Quinn in the ribs, but then noticed what was wrapped around the vampire's leg.
"Ash, what're you doing down there?"
Ash grinned. "Johnny boy hates hugs, so he can walk around with one!"
"Okay! We're getting off topic here!" Danielle yelled. "Why do you think it's alright to skip school?"
"Quinn did! He's fine!" Ash countered.
"He's unemployed and out of control!" Danielle replied.
"I'm right here!" Quinn gestured to himself. "And I'll have you know, I work for Thierry! He just wont let me do anything!"
She raised an eyebrow. "He pays you to do nothing?"
Galen smothered a laugh. "He gets as much as we do! Pocket money!"
"Shut up!" Quinn yelled as he pounced, sending Ash flying into the staircase.
Danielle sighed as the two boys started fighting. "Nilsson! They're doing it again!"
…
Hannah grinned merrily as Jane screamed. "Higher! Higher!"
"If you go any higher, you'll fall off!"
"No I wont! Please Mrs Descouedres!"
Hannah laughed and cocked an eyebrow at the child. "Mrs Descouedres? Call me Hannah and I'll push the swing higher!"
"Okay Mrs Hannah! Please?"
Hannah shrugged. "Close enough!"
Jane squealed as the swing went hurtling upwards, she tilted her head back. "I can see behind me!"
"Careful there, missy! You'll get dizzy!" Hannah called, immediately realising that what she'd said rhymed. "I'm a poet and I didn't know it!"
…
"Now then, Gillian." Danielle said. "I want to ask you about Morgead and Jezebel."
Gillian stared at the strange woman sitting next to her. "What about them?"
"When I went on a tour of the house I saw some…" She lowered her voice dramatically. "Strange objects in their room."
Gillian frowned. "What kind of strange objects? Cuz the guitar is supposed to be that colour…"
"Well…"
"Okay! Okay! I'm sorry!" Gillian exclaimed. "The guitar isn't supposed to be that colour! Morgead and I got bored and Quinn helped us!"
"What guitar?" Danielle asked, very scared and very uncomfortable.
"Oh! Jez got rid of it? Good, cuz it was starting to smell…"
"Be quiet. I meant the cage, and the dog bowl and the items that…" Again with the lowered voice. "Strongly resemble parts of the male anatomy."
Gillian frowned at her. "You mean Morgead's dildos?"
Danielle gasped and jumped off the sofa. "A young girl should not know such things! Go to your room and repent!"
"Repent for what? You started this conversation!" Gillian rebutted.
"I did not use that fowl word though!" Danielle shouted. "Go to your room and never speak of such things again!"
"Hey hey hey…" Morgead reasoned, entering the room. "What did she do?"
"She… errr…"
"I mentioned your sex toys." Gillian told him, much to Danielle's dismay.
"GO TO YOUR ROOM!" Danielle screamed.
"Hannah never sent me to my room." Gillian claimed.
"Well she should of! You're out of control!" The older woman's face was becoming a rather unattractive shade of bright red.
"You're the one yelling." Came Thierry's quiet voice from the doorway.
…
Hannah and Jane skipped through the front door, hand in hand and still giggling.
"JANE! Go to your room!" Phillip yelled.
The girl squeaked and ran to her room.
"Why did you do that?" Hannah glared at him.
"A friend came over to inform me that she saw you two at the park and you were behaving in a very inappropriate manner." He gestured to the living room, where a plump woman sat on the couch, smirking.
"Don't be ridiculous!" Hannah started upstairs to comfort Jane.
Phillip went into the living room and bent down, kissing the tattle-tale smack on the lips. He didn't know that Hannah, and the cameras, could still see him.
Hannah turned to the camera. "He's gonna die when the rules change."
…
Danielle stormed off after Thierry's stern scolding.
Morgead turned to Gillian. "We're gonna die when the rules change."
…
Danielle burst into her room, fuming. She glared at the camera.
"They're going to die when the rules change."
I sense some dying in later chapters... Please review! I always reply, but my one hundredth will get many cyber hugs of glee! (So if you're anonymous, I'll be annoyed!) Xxx
