Story

Phil sneaked into the kitchen and started making chocolate chip cookies. He still loved to cook, finding it a fun thing to do. But he didn't like having people see him cook, except Susie. So he had invited Susie to come help him. Susie came in the house and walked right to the kitchen, "Philip?" She poked her head in and saw that he was wearing a pink apron. Susie stifled a laugh and came in, "You are wearing pink, Davill."

Phil glared over his shoulder at her, "So? Its not like they make very many manly aprons." He located the chocolate chips, "Can you find the eggs?"

Susie opened up the fridge and grabbed a carton of eggs, "Yeah, here ya go." She placed it on the counter then walked around the kitchen, grabbing the brown sugar and everything else before Phil had found a mixing bowl and chocolate chips.

Phil placed the mixing bowl and chocolate chips on the counter, "Lets get started." Phil mixed everything together then Susie put them on the tray.

Susie asked curiously, "Why aren't you embarrassed about me knowing that you cook, but you are embarrassed about everyone else?"

Phil shrugged, "You aren't condescending like Angelica, teasing like Dill or Lil, annoying like Tommy or Chuckie, or unnecessarily cruel like Kimmy can be sometimes. I don't mind if you know or help."

Susie nodded then slid the tray into the oven, she set the timer then sat down on one of the kitchen chairs, "How is your homework coming?"

Phil grumbled, "I just finished it, Lil came over briefly to ask for some help with her math homework."

Susie nodded then tilted her head, "Are you excited about the band?"

Phil got a bright grin that spread across his face, "I am thrilled! This will be great, at least we will all be together. Even if I dread spending time with Angelica, she is still a good friend. Even if she is a little crazy."

Susie raised an eyebrow, "A little is an understatement."

Angelica laid on her bed, curled up in a ball. She stared into outer space and talked to herself, "Maybe they are right. Darrel doesn't really love me. He hit me didn't he? He would act sorrowful then do it again a week later. But I love him..."

Kimmi came in with some tea, "Angelica? I brought you some tea." Kimmy sat on the bed next to Angelica and set the tea on the bedside table, "Are you going to be alright?"

Angelica looked at Kimmi then sat up, taking the tea cup and sipping some of the tea, "I think I will be okay. I am sorry that I tried to stop you from protecting me." She set the tea cup on the side table and put her head in her hands, "I don't know whats wrong with me."

Kimmi gave Angelica a hug, "There is nothing wrong with you, Angelica."

Angelica returned the hug and then released her friend, laying back down with her back to Kimmi, "Yes, there is something wrong with me. I am attracted to idiots." She started crying and laughing at the same time.

Kimmi smiled then said, "Are you ready to come downstairs with us? We can all eat the Chinese food that Chuckie is bringing over. I asked him to." She stood up and tilted her head at Angelica.

Angelica hesitated then nodded, "Alright, I still need to thank Chuckie, anyways." She stood up then got a change of clothes, "I am going to take a shower first."

Kimmi smiled then nodded, she walked downstairs, "Lil, she is going to eat with us."

Lil cheered, "Yey! Maybe she is getting better."

Kimmi nodded then sat down, "Yeah, we can only hope."

Chuckie picked up the food that Kimmi had chosen. He walked out after paying then went to his car. He placed the bag in the car next to his seat, fastening his seat belt then driving towards Angelica's house.

Once he got there he parked the car in the driveway, getting out with the bag, putting his keys in his pocket, then heading towards the door. He knocked on the door to be greeted by Kimmi.

Kimmi smiled at him, "Hello big brother!" She pulled him in and then took the food, "Wait here, Angelica wanted to thank you." Kimmi went into the kitchen and placed the food on the kitchen table.

Angelica came over and gave Chuckie a hug, "Thank you, Finster." Chuckie was surprised by the hug but returned it.

Chuckie said awkwardly, "Your welcome, Angelica." He released her then tilted his head towards the door, "I should go, mom and dad are expecting me to help them redecorate the living room."

Angelica nodded then gave Chuckie a smile, she turned back to the kitchen and walked in, very happy.

Lil leaned on the wall and raised an eyebrow at Chuckie, "You can stop checking her out now."

Chuckie shot a glare at Lil then walked out of the house to his car, he drove back to his parents house.

Dill was in the tree house, coloring. In his mind one never got too old for coloring. Dill selected a brown color and colored in a horse, then he selected a black and colored in the mane and hooves.

Dill heard Tommy come up and sit down across the tree house, "How are you doing, Dill?"

Dill glanced up at Tommy, "Eh, I am doing okay. I wanted to be six again so I found a coloring book." He smiled then looked back down choosing a few more colors.

Tommy nodded then smiled, he laid down on the floor, "Ugh. I wish I had a way to be a kid again."

Dill pushed a coloring book and a pack of crayons over to Tommy, "Coloring is always good."

Tommy hesitated then took the book and crayons, he started coloring a Unicorn, "I feel stupid, but its better then nothing."
