LUCY POV
I'm at my house waiting, and it is beyond measurable… awfulness, I'm not even sure whether or not if that is a word. Duncan found out, thankfully he's found out after he did his task otherwise it would be besides the pint of staying under cover. So now I'm waiting for him to come and lecture me, but I've already written Connor's task which if I do say so myself is brilliant. I wonder if it would be pushing it to get Duncan to put the new letter in the closet.
"Knock knock knock" went my door. I gulped; Duncan wouldn't grass me up would he? I went to the door to see 3 very angry looking Drake brothers. Damn him he did tell. Well he told Sebastian and Marcus. In tow with said homicidal Drakes were Solange, Hunter, Isabeaux and Helena all looking very sheepish. They all walked in and went into the living room. Uh oh, they've managed to make Helena Drake look guilty.
HELENA DRAKE!
"LUCY" they shouted, whoops I must have spaced out or something, I better get in there. I sat on the couch next to Isabeaux purely for safety reasons, none of them would dare touch her, and she could very easily kick all 3 of them in their "assets".
"So Lucy" Duncan said stiffly. "You're not a cat" I couldn't help but snort at this, and when all three of them raised an eyebrow at me- at the same time it only caused me to laugh harder.
"What a major duh-moment" I said through laughs.
"Lucy" Sebastian snapped, well that's stopped my laughs. Sebastian can be pretty terrifying. "So this is your idea of a jokes?" he asked glaring t us all.
"Well… Kieran knows too" I said sounding very childish. Solange on my other sde hit me "Ow" I said rubbing my arm "what was that for"
"Don't get him involved" she hissed "it's not his fault"
"Solange is right" Marcus stated. I nodded.
"Your right" I said solemnly "We have no one to blame but Nicky" Now it was Isabeaux's time to start laughing. If I were Marcus, Duncan or Sebastian I would be very annoyed that we weren't taking them seriously. Soon Helena was cracking up too, and Hunter followed her lead soon after the only one of us who wasn't was Solange and I think that's more about her worry for Kieran's physical health rather than anything else.
"Well I say we make a deal" says Sebastian.
"What kind of deal?" I ask, suddenly very interested.
"Well" he said "so we don't tell the other tasks must be worst than ours" he stated as if it were the most apparent thing on the planet. Actually it is.
"OK" I said eagerly "I've already written down Connor's and it's worse than all of yours" I finished excitedly.
"OH" Marcus said suddenly. We all stared at him. "You sighed all your letters L. Lucy's begins with L" And then… I was on the floor laughing again how he had not worked that out sooner is ridiculous. And this time we were all on the floor apart from Marcus of course who still seemed to be in shock after his revelation just stood there starting to resemble a fish. It really wasn't a good look for hm.
We all spent the rest of the night laughing and pretty much being crazy, sometimes when being in a war against ignorant, over-protective baboons some call brother and sons it brings everyone closer together. Ah with some of the tasks we have thought of we will defiantly be ruining the Drake brother's reputation of being tall dark and handsome "studs".
Nicholas POV
Mum, Solange and Isabeaux went out again last night, but this time they went with Duncan, Sebastian and Marcus. We didn't even bother asking were they went we were all so tired we all raced to bed and crashed out as soon as we had made sure they were all safe.
Again we were all standing around the closet waiting for our parents. I don't know why they haven't caught on a decided to start getting up earlier. "Ugh come one why don't they just get up we know they know we know they can hear us" Quinn said. The twins had been very edgy this morning, because they didn't know which one of them was going to get the task seeing as they were exactly the same age with them being twins and all.
"Your right Quinn" Mum said as she walked down the stairs with Dad "we do know that you know we know you can hear us" she said laughing. I joined in with her Quinn had sounded pretty ridiculous before.
Connor just poked his tong out at us and said "Quick, hurry up ad open the door, the suspense is killing us" he cried out, because it really was.
"Okay Connor" Dad said trying to calm the twins down, I know not knowing was rough but this was a bit melodramatic. "Why don't you check who it is" Dad suggested to Connor who practically lunged for the door.
"It's ok Quinn it's mine" He said calmly now, you'd have thought this wouldn't help him but it did. "Hi Connor" He started to read "I know you like sci fi movies, but I wonder if you've ever seen the Rocky Horror picture show?" it asked Solange suddenly started laughing but the rest of us stayed neutral but I think that's because none of us knew what the Rocky Horror Picture show was "well even if you haven't I am sure Solange has and she'll fill you in" Connor continued looking slightly worried at Solange who seemed to be in hysterics. "So your challenge at the Courts meeting tonight will sing Sweet transvestite in the Frank-N-Furter style costume, don't worry you'll look great lots of luck L" He finished.
"What the hell does this Frank guy wear?" Quinn shouted probably curios on which twin could pull off the costume better.
