Chapter 4:

Lynette's POV

I followed Xavier and Yves to the barbeque quietly and saw a table with a barbeque grill at the side, I saw about ten or elven people there and I saw the girl 'Emily' there, I gulped a bit nervously and looked to see about eight boys who were all very charming and good looking while the girls who I figured were called Karla and Sky were beautiful and elegant.

I made a pained smiled and followed Xavier and Yves to the table; I saw Emily glancing at me shockingly and glared at me. I saw the table being set out and Xavier bring out the jug of orange juice and placing it on the table. I guess being a benedict equals handsome and good looking.

"Hey Xavier, who's this?" Someone gestured to be and I looked down embarrassed.

Yves answered, "She's called Lynette Zed," He glared at him and I saw him give a meaningful stare for a while, I frowned for a bit till I felt someone tap on my shoulder, I turned around and saw a small blonde girl smiling at me.

"Hi, I'm Sky Bright." She looked at me cheerfully,

I smiled, "Lynette Wilson,"

THUD!

I jumped back and turned around, I saw Emily who was holding a cup dropping it with a thud. I frowned, "Something wrong Emily?"

She shook her head quickly, "N-No,"

I smiled, "Good," I turned around back to Sky, "Nice accent Sky," I paused, "Though it doesn't seem to be similar to there's…" I trailed off and gestured to the Benedict's. Her voice was quite lighter and soft than most girls I know.

She nodded, "I'm from London."

"I've just been there," I smiled, "The shops are great aren't they?"

She nodded, "Yeah,"

"Sky it's time to eat." A kind and gentle women stated and turned to me, "Lynette right?" She asked me sceptically, I nodded, "You can sit next to Sky, it'll be nice to talk to another friend who's a girl since I have seven sons." She stated. "This is my husband Saul."

I nodded, "Nice to meet you,"

He nodded, "It's nice to meet you to, my sons, Trace, Uriel, Victor, Will and you've met Xav, Yves and the youngest here is Zed," who grumbled in annoyance,

I smiled and sat next to Sky, "So are you here on holiday?" I asked curiously. They all nodded and I noticed Victor trying to light the Barbeque but failed.

"I swear someone cursed me to see me annoyed." Victor sighed frustrated with the matches.

I frowned, "You want me to try?" I asked standing up but Karla shushed me down.

"You're a guest here Lynette." Karla settled, "You don't need to."

Victor picked up another match and scratched it against the card; I looked at it and stifled a laugh when it blew out.

"We have all the time in the world don't we Victor?" Zed said sarcastically,

Xavier grinned, "Let's keep everyone waiting for the food shall we?" He gestured to the Emily and me. The frustrated Benedict tried again with the match and struck another match. It flared into light but immediately went out much to Victor's annoyance and Chris' amusement.

I bit my lip to hide back a laugh and he tossed the matches aside, "I give up." Victor declared with authority in his voice.

"Can't we just get Yves to-?"

Saul cut Xavier off, "Xavier!" he yelled in a warning tone.

I flinched at his tone and frowned confused, "Maybe I should give it a try," I stood up and picked up the box of matches, I swiped the match and put my hand over it carefully making it not burn my hand, yikes!

I put lit the barbeque and quickly blew out the match. "Finally!" Sky squealed and Victor grumbled annoyed. They put the food on the barbeque waiting for the food to cook while I decided to talk to the Benedict's, Yves and Zed were pretty easy to talk to while Victor seemed to be the person with authority, Will seemed a pretty nice guy and so did Uriel.

Trace was a pretty alright guy and told me all about his music pieces, he seemed to be really into classical music which we talked about for a while Emily kept on shooting me uneasy glances, Sky and Karla were great when you need to shop and talk about girl thing and with Saul, I gets kind of tensed a bit but shook it off.

"So how do you find the barbeque?" Xavier snapped out of my thoughts and I looked at him,

I smiled, "Too be honest…" I paused, "It's not as bad as I thought," I nodded my head in acceptance and kicked a bit of the mud, "So… have you told Sky and Karla?" I asked curiously,

He grinned, "Do you want me to?"

I shoved him a bit and rolled my eyes, "Jerk," I muttered and took a drink from the table, "So have you found a top yet for your girlfriend?" I asked curiously,

He smiled, "No, I'm not the one for fashion,"

"Figured as much," I said amused, "Well I'll send one over," I paused, "Where do you live? I'll post it through."

"How about I pick it up from you?" He asked quickly,

I nodded, "Sure why not?" I shrugged.

So Lynette's met the family! x x x
