As the kids get home school .Dave was waiting for them .He greeted Theodore and Alvin .He asked them to wait inside for him as he wanted to talk to the girls .
"Girls I need to ask you to do something for me",Dave said to them when the boys had went back into the house .
Brittany smiled at Dave "is this about Simon ?"
Dave smiles down at them ."let him look out for you .Could you be well " Dave began Jeanette cuts in .
"You mean you want us to be a handful ",Jeanette asks folding her arms .
"Maybe just a little ",Dave watches their reaction ."He is going through a phase and I am trying to break him of it ."
"I can't believe you would ask such a thing",Brittany added in "we can take care of ourselves we don't need him to watch out for us "
"I understand girls so you won't do it ",Dave's face frowns ."i just thought you could do a little acting for me "Dave began .
"No we will do it I am just shocked that you would ask",Brittany responds like it was extremely dramatic .
"Brittany why can't you just say you will do it ?",Eleanor snaps in giving her sister a nasty look.
"Because it was such a shock to me",Brittany responds snapping back at her sister .
"It was not",Eleanor yelled back at her .
"It was to " Brittany responded again .Dave was about to say something when Simon came walking up .He couldn't believe what great timing he had .
"I will leave this up to you Simon ",Dave smiled at Simon turning back toward the house .
Simon walked up "Thanks so much Dave ."Simon says talking under his breath "what are you girls fighting about ?"
"Brittany is always so dramatic ",Eleanor snaps in responding to Simon ' s question .
"I am not",Brittany responds back .
"You are to ",Jeanette puts in her two cents .
"Could the three of you just knock it off?",Simon raises his voice at them already wishing they just would just stop fighting ."That's a stupid thing to be fighting over in the first place"
"Brittany started it and it's true ",Eleanor glares at her sister .
"I did not you did and it is not true ",Brittany glares back at Eleanor with the same nasty look.
"I don't care who started it just stop it alright",Simon snaps at the three of them .They go quiet for a second .
"You still started it Brittany ",Eleanor sticks her tongue out at her sister .Brittany's eyes go big she points at Eleanor .
"Did you see her doing that ",Brittany crosses her arms eyeing Simon .
"It only proves how dramatic you are to make such an issue out of it Brittany ?",Jeanette glares at her sister Brittany .
"Girls ,knock it off ",Simon yells at them in a more firm tone .The three girls turn looking at him .
"O alright Simon ",Brittany crosses her arms stomping up the stairs .Her two sisters follow her up .Dave was watching from a safe distance away .He was laughing ,he thought maybe he shouldn't be but he found the situation some what funny the girls were such great actors .He kept thinking if it wouldn't take so much from their childhood he would get them all acting jobs . He trusted his son fully he was the most responsible of the three boys but he was still just a kid even if he looked an adult so he felt a need to watch the situation .The girls could care for themselves and Dave knew this, but they could lay on the drama when needed .He would never admit it to his sons or to anyone else but he found it kind of cute .He watched Simon roll his eyes and began walking upstairs after the girls .
Dave smiled talking to himself "A few days of this and he will be running back to being a kid "He says some what muttering .
"What are you doing Dave ?",Alvin peeks his head behind the bush where Dave was hiding kind of starling him .Dave jumps, falling backward a little .He hits the ground landing on his bottom .
"Hi Alvin I was just checking on my flowers ",He says kind some what smiling at him while chuckling looking a little embarrassed .
"You were not you were spying on Simon ",Alvin crosses his arms eyeing his dad .
"Well ,maybe just a little I just wanted to see how things were going ",Dave smiles up at his son .
"Dave just let it go he made his own choice and you have two other young kids to care for",Alvin eyes him giving him a strange look .
"Alvin you boys will always be my kids no matter how big you get "Dave hugs Alvin "that includes all of you now how about a pizza for dinner .I don't feel like cooking "He knew that would get Alvin's mind on another subject and off what he was going .
"that sounds great "Alvin ran back inside yelling at Theodore. "Hey Theodore, Dave is ordering us a pizza for dinner "Dave could hear him shouting at his brother. Dave picked up the phone ordering a pizza for them .He also ordered one for the girls and Simon .He knew Simon wasn't much a cook although Eleanor was fantastic one .He thought maybe they might also like treat so he decided to surprise them .
