Noelle beamed and clung to her cousin like a koala. Her brothers had done similar things to her when they had seen her. "I missed you." Says first and foremost. Looking back at the house, she needed to see where her parents were at. She saw her dad glancing out of the living room window.

"Im in trouble but not so much trouble that I don't get to see you two. How are you?? Are you ready for the summer?? You're coming over everyday right?? Sleepovers all the time??" Noelle asked her as she finally unclung herself from her.

Noelle saw Chris start walking up the dirt driveway. He looked miserable. Noelle giggled. "At least you aren't grounded!!" Because groundings did not do well with Nells. She already missed Sabbie.

Moving back, she went back into the house with Hopes hand firmly in hers. "Sabbie asked me something." Nells whispers to Hope.
