*Banner by Marie (Loki) of course!*

On the outskirts of a little neighborhood in london, stood a rather big, clearly old, but very nice house. with a specious back and front yard. a short elderly plum tree to the side; it's scarlet leaves as heathy as ever. and afew flower bushes wrapped around the large front porch. The newly rised morning sun giving off a light gold glow. A small waist-high wooden gate wrapped around the side's of the house, blocking any animal's or little ones from getting out of the backyard unless someone were to leave the gate latch open. When you went around the side of the house, and into the back. You come across quite afew outside toys laying in the grass. already blown up floaties of all different shapes and kinds in the open shed; and very close to that was the pool, the water reached up to six feet, and back down to three. pool chairs with adjustable back's sat all around one side of the pool. Back in the living room, on the wall right above the fireplace hung pictures; muggle and wizarding alike, the whole wall was covered with baby pictures, pictures of kids running around playing, pictures of people whom Emma's siblings hadn't even met before; Benjamin's family. One picture stood out most though, probably because of the small plaque that was attached to it.

Running barefoot, in PJs, down the stairs inside the house. and into the kitchen at five thirty AM in the morning, was Emmylyne Lawley. or better known as Emma Mae - Savannah's eldest sibling. the newly married woman continued on her way to the microwave, and grabbed the bottle she had prepared moment's before; yes, she was not only newly married, but a new mommy to a Six month old. Where was her husband? Already off at work, Benjamin Lawley was working hard training to become an auror. though he tried hard to spend as much time with his wife and baby as possible, He had gone to work early that day on purpose just to be home abit after the guests arrived.

The twenty-two year old's, thick blown hair bounced at her shoulders as she just about flew back up the stairs, heading for the nursery. It was pretty clear which room was the babies, The nursery door had big fun bold letters in pastel going down, to the side that said 'Nursery', As she quietly entered the room, going over to the endtable that said beside the two rocking chairs, She placed the warm bottle down before checking up on her sleeping baby girl.
Everything about the room seemed to be light and soothing.. much to a baby's needs really. Right above the crib, 'Lainie' was painted in bright blue. A Rocking baby swing was folded up, against the wall closes to the closet, tons of clothes were visible through the open door. And little toys and stuffed animals layed here and there.
Satisfied after seeing her daughter was still peacefully asleep, Emma left the room silently, closing the door behind her and went to get dressed and ready for the day. it was summer again, after all. and she had invited her younger siblings and their friends over for most of the summer. It was only a matter of time before everyone started showing up.

~*~

The house right next door was rather similar but abit larger then the Lawley's house. the backyards were contected by a waist-height wooden fence, in the very middle there was a small opening gate. on the other side of the house, barely visible from either backyard (unless you were on the left side), stood a indoor horse stable; only really big enough for two fully grown horses.

Inside you see there was only actually three stables, and two had put together, rather difficultly by taking out one of the rails.
A bunch of horse supplies of all sorts in the back end of the barn like room. The very first stable; the bigger one out of the two, held a small horse baby. better known as a Filly. the chestnut horse layed asleep in a pile of hay; the sunlight barely peeking through the window above her, giving off a golden glow. she only looked less then a year old. Pheobe belonged the person whom owned the house, Emma's dear friend Krissy; Emma had agree'd to take care of the young animal until her friend came back from a short vacation to a relatives.

D.A Forever · 09-01-2007, 07:58 PM

Driving down a neighborhood road, in a light blue, slightly dented chevy truck, A young brunette lifted her head up and looked to her side, were a younger girl sat, curled up; half-asleep leanning her head against ger older sister. The third child in the back seat was younger then both the others, sitting in her boosterseat, head against the window and her little gold curls falling into her face as she moved slightly in her sleep.

The eldest of the three girls; Savannah Mae looked over to the driverseat were a cheerful, blonde haired and navy blue eye'd man sat. Mr, Mae glanced in the mirror, smiling at his daughters, then turned his attention back to the road.

Yawning softly, Savannah turned her gaze back towards the window on her side, Watching kids running around, playing games and flying on their brooms. Parents outside watching the younger ones and cheering them on when they managed to stay on their broom.

Nex thing the thirteen year old knew, they were pulling into a driveway.

"We're here girls." Scott called to his daughters, turning off the car and unbuckling his seatbelt.
Taking her seatbelf off, as she nudged Madison whom tiredly did the same. Without a word; Anna got out of the car and went around the side, as her father started getting the luggage out of trunk.

As She reached the other side of the car, She opened the door and unbuckled the sleeping six year old, picking her up and out of the boostersea. "We've just arrived at EmmyLyne's, Sweetie." Vanna said as Kaitlynnh stirred awake. She carefully put the younger girl down on her feet and straightened out the girl's pretty yellow and pink trimmed sundress. Katie just nodded, rubbing her eyes and let her big sister take her free hand.

"Oye, can we please go inside now?" Madison asked, tossing Savannah a pale blue backpack that had afew colorful star charms hanging from the zipper, a pastel purple backpack that had poohbear on the front and Anna's brown/tan school messanger bag. Handing Kaitlynnh the purple bag, Savannah followed their father to the door, both sister's by her side; Madi messing with the black and pink polka-dotted backpack in her hands.

Once they had gotten to the door, of course Emma was already there, arms open wide as if waiting for her hugs. Madison and Kaitlynnh both ran into thier oldest sisters welcoming arms.
after saying their hellos, the five went inside, Emmylyne left the screen door open and led her sisters and father into the livingroom; picking up and moving infant toys on the way. the new mother smiled over at her dark haired, bright eye'd baby girl, whom was asleep in her baby swinger that was set to rock her very gently and soothingly back and forth, clearly it had done what it was suppose to, because the baby seemed very peaceful at the moment.

Looking at the clock on the wall, Savannah realized they had arrived over a half-hour ago, as it was now seven-thirty in the morning. Emma had let Katie go upstairs and explore the younger kids' guest room, Madison was outside in the backyard, doing merlin knew what. Her father had just left moments before to go get Conner and her kitten, Tiger. because Madi had been incharge of grabbing him before they left and she had forgotten too.

Savannah found herself sitting, leanning carefully on the couchs arm that was right beside the rocking baby swing; gazing down at the six month old. The babys mum was running around the two-story house somewere, trying to make sure everything was ready for the many many guests that would be arriving soon.

Finally after what seemed like another ten minutes later, Emma came back down stairs; she had been showing her baby sister around abit, and had decided to let the child play while she went to checkup on Savannah and Baby Lainie.
Stopping at the livingroom enterance, a bright smile playing on her lips as she watched her sister with her neice. it had taken till just now for the new-adult to notice the young teenager looked a lot like she use to when she was a little kid, except she use to have darker hair. Any other person whom had known Savannah since then would agree with Em. Vanna's brown hair was in loose ringlet curls, being held back by a white headband, and she was wearring a rather ruffly medium-blue colored shirt, with a dark blue jean skirt. - Definitally NOT her style.

"So whats up with the new style? Trying to look pretty for someone?" Emma asked, rather teasingly but purely out of curiousity. "Not that you don't look cute, because you do, it just doesnt seem like something you'd wear." Then again I haven't seen my sibs in forever. Oh boy, Life had really hit her the year before.

"No.." Savannah said slowly, turning her ocean blue eyes to meet her sister's hazel ones. Her cheeks turning a very faint pink. "And it's not my style. at all. Mum made me wear it.." she added flatly, looking back to her neice, she gently rubbed her tiny hand.
"That makes sense then. why dont you go chan-"Emma stopped, full sentance, as someone knocked on the door. "Nevermind, the guests are here, go get the door babycakes."

"I wanted to change first.." Savannah mumbled annoyedly, a small frown on her face as she rose to her feet and went to get the door.
The Lawley's house elf, Vivi appeared seconds after her master had called softly. The house elves violet eyes traveled over to the baby before looking to Emma, she did a small curtsy before straightening out her white dress; it actually looked quite elagent on the young elf and matched perfectly with the white bow around her floppy ear. "Vivi could you please take Lainie up to the nursery, the children are here." Vivi nodded with a small; "Yesses Emma, i will do right way. misses." before gracefully picking up the sleeping child and with a snap, she disappeared upstairs.

OOC: The RP has started, join in whenever luffs! I'll be leaving in a hour or so.. so no crazy business while I'm away!

Sweet.Nightmare · 09-01-2007, 08:38 PM

A man who appeared to be in his mid-forties, looked to his oldest daughter, who was sitting next to him in the passenger side of a silver Land Rover. "Lic," the man said. "Do you have any idea what the house adress is, or even how to get there?" Garret Cruze's eyebrows were raised slightly. Alicia looked away from the book that sat in her lap and to her dad. She gave him a look that clearly said, You're kidding, right dad? She would've thought that her father knew by now that she and directions just didn't mix. The newly turned fourteen year old heard a chuckle from the back seat and her head turned around quickly.

"Uncle Garret, you might as well ask that rock over there," said Heath Fletcher. He felt a poke from both his sister Calena, and his younger cousin Massie. "What?" he asked, his voice trying to sound innocent. All three girls shook their head and looked away.

Alicia's eyes scanned the area. "Uh, maybe it's that one over there. The one with the truck," she said, her voice was clearly unsure. She saw her father shrug. It was worth a try.

They pulled into the driveway and five people got out of the car, four of them making sure that they had thier luggage, and one of the four making sure that she had the small white cat that one of her best friends had given her doing the school term.

Alicia pulled down her her lillac-colored camisole shirt, making sure that it covered the brown belt that was in the loopholes of her light washed jeans. Callie smoothed out her light pink tank top and white tennis skirt while Massie folded her arms over her blue tee shirt and Heath just rolled his brown eyes. "Honestly! What is it with teenage girls and their outfits?" Though he himself looked down to his forest green tee shirt and brown pants. Mum wanted him to look presentable.

Alicia too rolled her eyes. But she didn't comment, and simply skipped to the doorway of the house- exitement bubbling up inside of her. Not only would she get to see all her friends again, but she'd get to see Alex again. And their was nothing wrong with that. As long as dad stayed calm. I'm doomed, she thought, her cheeks already a light pink.

She took a deep breath and knocked on the door, hoping that this was the right house, her father, little sister, and cousins behind her.

D.A Forever · 09-01-2007, 09:07 PM

"Coooming." Savannah yelled, cursing herself as she remembered there was a baby in the house.
It was probably just the boys.. Dad was probably back with her kitty, brother, and his friends. Plus of course Kailani.

Passing the staircase, that she noticed had a piece of parchment stuck to it:

Quote:

RULES; and Yes, you ALL need to stick by them.
1. Knock before entering bedrooms and Bathrooms.
2. No using magic if under the age of seventeen; I'd like it better if your parents trusted me with you guys, and I doubt that'd happen if I let you get introuble with the ministry ;]
3. No real fighting, playing around is different.
4. No riding anything with wheels in the house.
5. No going into the nursery without permission from either me, Vivi or Ben.
6. Treat Vivi nicely, she's more apart of the family then your average house-elf.
7. Be careful around Pheobe.
8. Have FUN!
** Prank-war rules will be added later. do NOT start until told otherwise from Emma and only me.

Savannah raised her eyebrows in curiousity, after scanning it, but quickly forgot about it and rushed, opening the door. Like she should have seconds before.

"Liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiic!" She squealed, just about tackling the young lady that stood at the front door.

Emmylyne now stood behind her younger sister, smiling, she pushed the screendoor open as far as it would go, a tiny 'click' was heard and when She let go it stayed put. locked in place until she closed it by hand.
"Vina, Don't hurt the girl now. Come in, come in." The woman said, a cheerful smile on her face.

Savannah giggled, releasing Alicia, okay.. so maybe she was abit overly excited. since it was only two days after term had ended.
"Hey! Glad you guys could come!" She breathed, looking to her older sister whom was trying to get everyone inside.
"The boys aren't here yet; Alex, Wyatt and Conner, I mean." Vanna informed her friend, stepping inside.

"Oh no.. that's pretty obvious, we'd know if they were here. And you left Gordon out, Vina." Emma said, putting a hand on Savannah's shoulder.

OOC: G2G, I'll be back later

Sweet.Nightmare · 09-01-2007, 09:21 PM

Alicia grinned when she saw that it was Svannah, and they were in fact, at the correct house. "Vannahhhh!" she said happily, giving her friend a tight hug. "I miiiised you!" Okay, so the term hadn't ended too long ago, but still. Letting Savannah, she gave the older looking women a smile and stepped inside, the other members of her family doing the same. "You must be the famous Emma. I'm Alicia, this is my father Garret, my cousin Callie, my other cousin Heath, and my little sister Massie."

Massie stepped forward and gave Savannah a light hug. "Hi Savannah," the nine year old said with a small grin.

Garret, Callie, and Heath gave Savannah and Emmylyne a smile and a nod. Alicia had pretty much already said it all.

OOC: Must get off now

MUSTANG SALLY · 09-01-2007, 09:39 PM

"Now Sam, I want you to be good. If I find out you were in any way bad, I dont even want to think about it." Sam's mom, Silvia said.

"Yes mum." Sam said automaticly. She was so excited to go. She had been waiting for he past week to go. She had all her stuff packed before her mom had even said anything.

Fixing her dark brown-reddish hair back into a ponytail she waited for her dad to come down stairs. He finally came down with her backpack wich she had left on her bed.

"Here Sam. Dont forget this." her dad, Leo, said. Sam smiled up at him and took the backpack from him. She swung it onto her back. She was wearing her usual jeans and t-shirt. Her checkered Vans were getting old, but Sam didnt want to buy any new ones. She loved her Vans and she hated shopping anyways.

"So how are we getting there?" Sam asked anxiously.

"We are going to apparate their." Silvia said. She walked over to her daughter with the same colored hair and gentle smile. But instead of Sam, she had bright green eyes. Sam had her dad's eyes. Leo had light brown hair that reached his mid neck. He was taller than her and her mom, so Sam had to always look way up to see her father's eyes.

Sam loved her dad. He was funloving and could always make her laugh. Unlike her mom who was always pretty strict with her, her dad let her get away with almost anything. He had taught her how to play quidditch and they were always goofing off about something.

"Benny! Were leaving!" Silvia yelled.

Her brother showed up a few seconds later wearing his muggle hat. He went over and grasped his mother's hand.

Leo walked over to his daughter and grabbed her hand gently. "Ok hang on Sammy. We are going to apparate in 3...2...1!"

Sam felt like she was beenig squeezed through a tube when suddenly it stopped. They had ended up right next to the front door. Silvia appeared next to them with Benny and she dropped Sam's bag.

"Im going to go find Vannah." Sam said and wondered away from her parents.

Golden Monkey · 09-01-2007, 10:06 PM

The car stopped at the driveway of the house, the windows rolled up and black. A man stepped out and walked to the boot, opening it and taking out three suitcases. Closing the boot again, the man walked over to the passanger side of the door and opened it, allowing a fairly tall figure to emerge.

"Thank you." she told the man, who nodded and stood back as she looked around. She was around 14 years old, with long black hair down to the middle of her back. It was tied in an elegant pony tail with a pink rose in the middle. Her eyes, covered by sunglasses were a light bronze, with specks of brown and blue in them. She wore a simple pair of shorts and a travelling cloak. Under that a t-shirt with the saying "Set for life." in green sparkling letters.

A smile curled around the girls lips sa she straightened, breathing in the smells around her. Aww, it felt good to be in London she thought as she gazed at the house before her.

Turning, she took out some Muggle money and paid the man, who nodded and thanked her before returning to the cab. She looked back at the house, wondering if anyone had shown up and picked up her bags, which were pretty light.

She was definitly excited about being with her friends again. All the drama from school was long gone from her mind, though she was still mindfull of everyone around her, but not the friends she trusted. Glancing around quickly, she nodded and began walking.

Halfway up the walkway she tripped over her travelling cloak, stumbling forward slightly, but regaining her posture without incident.Walking up to the door, she stopped, placing the bags beside her. Raising her black nailed hand, she knocked, then stood back and waited.

Kaos.Doodles · 09-01-2007, 10:36 PM

A red Honda Civic slowly rode around a neighborhood. It stopped at the side of a random house and the driver turned to a sleeping girl in the passenger seat. “Lex. Lex Wake Up.” Amber Nicolas yelled at her younger cousin. The young girl jumped awake. “I wasn’t sleeping, just resting my eyes.” Thirteen year old Alexis Chosen muttered waking up. “Yeah, you were! You were sleeping. I sawed you!” Alexis’s younger brother Legend yelled, from behind her. Alexis turned around and gave him a look that said “I wasn’t talking to you”.

“I think it’s a couple more blocks down.” Alexis said taking a piece of paper that Savannah had given her before school had ended. “What ever you say.” Amber said starting up the car again. “When we gets there it’s going to be fun right Lexie?” Legend said his blue eyes sparking. “Sure. It’s gonna be awesome.” Alexis said as the car rolled pass a house with a truck in the drive way.

“WAIT Amber go back that’s the house.” Alexis said pointing back toward the house. “You sure?” Amber asked stopping the car in the middle of the empty street. “Why would she say it if it wasn’t DUH! And don’t yous know your not suppose to stop a car in the middle of the street. Jeesh!” Legend said hitting himself softly on his head with his hand. “Legend don’t even.” Amber said while putting the car in reverse. The car reversed back to the house.

Then car stopped and Alexis got a chance to get a good look at the house. It was a rather big two story house, that looked just perfect for they’re summer vacation. Alexis stepped out of the car and pushed a strain of her blond hair out of her face, then she opened up the trunk. She pulled out two pulleys then opened the car door for Legend. “I though you forgot about me.” The 5 year old muttered hopping out of the car seat. “Don’t forget T.K” Alexis said to her brother. “Oh yeah I forgot.” Legend said opened back the car door and climbling back in.

Alexis rolled her eyes and then straightened her red tank top. Over her tank top was a black jean jacket that matched her black jeans. Legend came back out side with a lopsided smile and a sleeping puppy in his hands. He was wearing a light blue t-shirt that said “Sean John” with brown shorts and blue and brown running shoes. “Bye Amber!” They both said. Amber waved goodbye and then the drove away.

Alexis took both of the bags and started to roll them toward the house with Legend right behind her. She noticed that there was a girl at the front girl that she knew. “Hey Ari!” She said with a smile.

The Old Toad · 09-01-2007, 11:08 PM

Gemma Jewels bounced up and down excitedly in the back of her father's buisness car. Ever so often, Robert Jewels would twist around in his seat to scowl at his odd ball daughter, grumbling curse words under his breath and gripping the steering wheel so tightly that his knuckles turned alabaster. "Thank you, thank you, Daddy!" Squealed Gem, her large golden eyes bright with anticipation of the trip. Usually during the summer she was allowed to do nothing more than sit in her room, gaze out the window, and wait for the next term to start, or until her birthday so her mother could take her into Diagon Alley. Robert hunched lividly over the wheel, and shot his daughter another irritated look as a box she was holding emitted a vociferous croak, interrupting the uncomfortable silence. Suddenly, the sleek black, muggle car came to a screeching halt as they approached the manor, sending Gemma and her toad, Mudiwa, crashing to the floor board.

"Get out, witch!" Robert bellowed, running a hand over his ebony hair. Gem smiled at him, and threw her arms around the stick-thin man before jumping out, grabbing her unicorn-shaped backpack. Before the thirteen year old girl could tell her father that she loved him, the car was speeding away, leaving a slightly pouting Ravenclaw student. With a shake of her head, a smile flitted to her pale pink lips, thinking of the wonderful time she was sure to have. The light reflected off of her pink, rubber ballerina flats, and her rainbow striped, ankle-length dress seemed to glow brighter in the warm sun. She began to skip down the path, her blonde and black hair streaming behind her, and glanced from side to side, feeling an old shyness grip her once more. "I'll have fun," she reminded herself, hopping over a stone. A moment later, she found herself on the ground, her face in the dirt, her knees scraped and slightly bleeding. "Oh bother," Gem murmured, spitting out gravel that clung to the top of her mouth. The clumsy teenager rolled over, dusting off her dress and pressing a hand to her bleeding knee. "I'm quite hazardous to myself," she sighed, and slowly picked herself up, cradling her toad in her arms. She walked a few steps forward, and biting her lip, rapped on the door. "Hello?" Gem's breathy voice called, as she rocked back and forth on her heels, fingering the leprechaun-shaped lapel that was pinned to her dress. "It's Gem!"

Phoenix 8390 · 09-02-2007, 04:58 AM

A brown haired girl sat impatiently in the back of a Ministry car, glancing out the window and hoping to god that the driver knew where to go. To be honest, she was quite nervous seeing as the only one she really knew was Savannah. She figured she'd make many friends this summer and was grateful for that.

This girl was Valencia Phoenix. As she leaned her head on the window, her younger brother Dusty layed his head on her lap and sighed. "We'll be there soon love," she whispered. The young boy nodded and closed his eyes.

The driver pulled into a lovely driveway; Valencia assumed this was the correct house. She scratched her brother's head, letting him know they were there. Dusty nodded and sat up, following his sister out of the car. "That thing has to be over a hundred years old," he commented about the ancient looking vehicle to his sister as they were retrieving their luggage out of the trunk.

Valencia chuckled then went around to the opposite side of the car to let her small kitten out. "Nikita, aquí," the girl said in Spanish. Nikita jumped clumsily out of the car. She seemed overly excited, seeing as she'd get to see her newest friend, Tiger. She followed behind her mother as they walked up to the house.

"Thanks," Vee called as the driver pulled away. "This better be the right house or we're screwed," Dusty whispered to his sister. She gave him a funny look then walked up to the front door. "Here's to the rest of our summer bro." And with that she knocked three times, waiting for someone to greet them at the door.

MUSTANG SALLY · 09-02-2007, 06:17 AM

Benny shook his head as Sam already took off to find everybody. He wondered into the kitchen and found it empty. Where was everybody? Walking back where they had apparated to, he saw his dad looking at a picture of little baby Lainie.

Benny saw a smile cross his father's face. He chuckled at him and said, "How old is Lainie now?"

"I think she is six months now." Slyvia said.
"Well we really need to be going now. I was going to say hello to Emmylyne but Im already late for a meeting." she walked over to her son and kissed her cheek.
"Be good and watch over Sam." she said.

Benny nodded and turned to his dad. He had a broad smile on his face and pat him on the back.
"Tell Sammy we said good bye." he said.

"Ok." Benny said and watched as both his parents dissaparated. He then wondered away looking for everybody elses.

Sam walked around the big house looking for anybody. She finally found Savannah and a few of her friends.

"Anna!!!" She said excitedly and ran toward her cousin.

"Im so glad your sister invited me to stay over. I would of been bored at home all summer if she didnt." she chuckled.

Looking at the other girls she recgonized Ariana and Alexis.

"Hi Aria and Lexi!" she said.

D.A Forever · 09-02-2007, 06:27 AM

"Hey Mass!" Vannah smiled, hugging her back, before waving to Alicia's cousins, "Nice to meet you!"
Moving her younger sister out of the door way, Emmylyne quickly opened the door, and put it in the locked position so it would stay open. allowing everyone to come inside.

"Come on in kiddos," She said with a kind smile.

"Sorry, Sorry!" Savannah mumbled, shifting through the group to see the newest guests, "Hey!" She squealed, coming over and hugging each Ari, Alexis, Sam, Benny and Gem in turn. "I'm glad you guys could come!"

"Savina, does everyone know eachother already?" Emma asked, out of curiousity, as she glanced around at them all. She had heard little bits and parts about some of them, but thats really all.
Noticing one of the girls seemed to have fallen, and scraped her knee, Emma gave her a concerned look, saying; "Are you alright dear? Do you want me to clean that up for you?" The motherly side of her really started coming out alot more, after Lainie.

"Uhm.. I think so.." Savannah answered, slowly. raising an eyebrow at her sister. "And stop with the Savina-ness. everyones going to think your crazy." She added; then looked towards the back yard. as she was standing in the middle of the hall. "MADISON! KAITLYNNH!" Vannah yelled, hoping to get her sisters attentions. They had guests! and those two were being so very rude.

"Is Kailani here yet or something?" Came a voice down the hall, growing closer. Madison moved a strand of brown hair away from her face, frowning as she stopped next to the stairs. "What Savannah??" Madi looked a LOT like Savannah, but younger.

The little girl with her golden locks bouncing at her shoulders, ran down the stairs, gaze on the ground. She didn't look up till she was at the bottom, then she saw her sister's guests were here. "Hi.." She said quietly. Kaitlynnh Mae had grown quite abit, over the year that everyone hadn't seen her. She had gotten taller, her hair had grown out more and lightened up more, and she looked a little older just in general.

"No, Kailani's not here, The boys aren't here. Get over it and get in here. Hmm?" She pratically snapped at the younger girl, feeling rather annoyed with her attitude today.

"Chill, girls. Calm, please." Emma hushed them with a look, before gesturing for everyone to head into the livingroom, that was right down the hall and to the left. Glancing out at the car that had just pulled up, It was the Saunders van, she knew it well. "Oh dear..." She mumbled, placing a hand on her cheek. She loved those boys, they were her brothers after all. but she had hoped for afew more minutes to calm things down.

Emma opened the door once more, allowing Savannah to welcome the guests in, instead of argue with her younger sister. "Hey!" She said, giving Valencia a hug, and her friends brother a friendly smile. "Come on in guys," She added, guiding them back inside.

"Go ahead and make yourselves at home, kids, leave your laugage in the hall. I'll have it brought up to the guest rooms in aminute.." Emma told all of them, keeping her soft tone. Where was Benjamin when she needed him??

(OOC: I am not playing the twins' mom!

No way. Grace, you can. please.

and Eva, I'm assuming Teressa would be arriving with them??

)

Finally, the car had pulled up in Emma and Benjamin's driveway. All four boys (Alex, Wyatt, Gordo & Conner), and two girls (Kailani & Teressa). could see the front door was open, and quite abit of noise was heard from the big house. once the van had come to a complete stop, the middle sliding door opened, and all four boys darted out of the vehicle. Mrs Saunders waited for the younger girls. and their step-father, Jeff, helped them with their things.

Alexander, Gordon and Conner grabbed their bags out of the back, Alex threw Wyatt his. as he was in the middle of pratically wrestling with Savannah's cat, Tiger. trying to keep him in arm's length.
"Oi! if you hurt that cat, Savannah will hurt you. you know dude." Conner warned, giving him a look while grabbing the orange kitten from his friend. he knew how much his baby sister cared for the creature.. and how much trouble his mate would be in if anything happened.
Wyatt rolled his eyes, walking over to the car once more to help the others.
Alex, not wanting to wait anymore, took afew things and went up the path to the front door. his younger cousin Gordon followed behind. "Nervous?" the younger boy asked, walking alongside Alex. with a grin.
"What are you talking about Gordo?" He replied, eyebrow raised, he glanced at him, before stopping at the open door. Alexander was playing dumb, he knew what the boy was talking about.. he was talking about meeting his girlfriend's father. was he nervous..?? oh just a little.
Gordon shook his head, forgetting the subject and followed Conner into the house. who had just came up with Wyatt in tow.
Entering the house, Conner let Tiger jump out of his arms, and run to his owner. "Hey all." He said, waving a hello to everyone, before snatching the basketball Gordon had in his hands, away. and took off down the hall. "Hello. Sorry. Introductions later." Gordo said and took off after the older durmstrang boy. even before him, Wyatt took off after Conner. without a word. Boys and there games..
Alexander shook his head disappointedly with a small sigh. looking over at Alicia, a smile crossed his face. though abit hesitantly, he walked over and gave her a small shy hug. waving a hello to Massie, Callie and Heath before offering Mr. Cruze his hand. "Hello Sir.." He said politely.

MUSTANG SALLY · 09-02-2007, 06:52 AM

Sam followed everybody into the living room.
Sam was couldnt stop smiling. So many people were here!
She chuckled as she saw a group of boys rush into the house, then run back out with a basketball.

She saw her little cousin Maddison and Kaitlynnh come from out of now where. Kaitlynnh had really grown from the last time she had seen her. She walked over to her and gave her a small hug.

"You sure have grown since Ive seen you." she said happily to the six year old.

Benny vagualy remembered being hugged by his cousin Savannh before being ushered into the living room. The house was loud and cheerful.

When he saw his eldest cousin, he made his way over to her.
"Hi Emmy. Did you really agree to have a house full of kids this summer?" he asked with a small laugh.

He watched as more people began to arrive and he saw Savannah begin fighting with her sister already. He shook his head again and chuckled at her. He then saw a bunch of boys run and then run out. Wow, this house was going to packed.

He looked over at Emmylyne and said, "So how is the baby?"

Sweet.Nightmare · 09-02-2007, 01:19 PM

Massie grinned at Savannah. Turning around to the others that had just arived, she waved. "Hello," the nine year old said happily. Then seeing Kaitlynnh come in she grinned and waved again.

Looking at her little sister, Alicia's eyebrows raised. Wow. "You weren't kidding when you said Massie's opened up, were you?" she asked her father in an undertone. Her father just grinned in a What did I tell you, sort of way. The young girl giggled, and quickly walked over to the door and gave her other best friend Alexis a hug. "Heeeeey Lex!"

Then looked to her family. She'd let them introduce themselves this time. Well, maybe not Heath. "Uh that's-" she started to say, but was cut off by none other than her 'favorite' cousin. Alicia rolled her eyes.

"I'm Heath," the thirteen year old boy said, putting out his hand to shake.
His younger sister (by about 13 minutes) Callie smiled at the Alexis girl. "I'm Callie, the normal one out of the two of us," she said with a small giggle.
"Normal in what way?" Heath asked her. "Insane, pink-loving, mutant girl? Oh yeah, definatly normal," he said sacrasticly.
Callie glared at her brother. "Leave," she said to Heath almost silently.
Heath rolled his eyes and walked back over to his uncle.

Alicia put her head on her hands. Maybe it was better if her cousins- well, rather Heath- could stay silent all summer. She knew well enough that there was no chance of that. She felt her dad tap her on the sholder, and she turned around curiously.

"Alicia, do you know when this Alexander boy is going to get here?" Garret asked. "I have to be at the Ministry in about," he checked his watch. "An hour."

Alicia shrugged. "Dunn-" she started to say, but then saw Emma saying 'Oh dear,' and putting her hand on her cheek. "I think they might be here," she said, a grin slowly spreading across her face.

"Is that Aleeeeex?" Heath asked Alicia in a quiet, teasing voice, making sure that only she could hear.

Alicia gave her cousin a look. It wasn't Alex that needed to hide someone in the nearest closet, it was her. She returened her Alex's hug. Please be nice, she mouthed to her dad when Alex wasn't looking.

Garret gave the boy a small smile and shook his hand. "Hello Alex- you don't mind if I call you Alex, do you? As you probably can tell, I'm Alicia's dad. But you can call me Garret," he said.

Phoenix 8390 · 09-02-2007, 04:28 PM

Valencia walked into the house, immediately being met by Savannah. She hugged her back and smiled. "Hey! This is my little brother Dusty," the newly turned fifteen year old said, motioning to her brother.

"Nice to meet you," Dusty said politely, taking Savannah's hand a kissing it. The twelve year old grinned. He was always a gentleman. "Thanks for inviting us," he added.

Valencia put her bags down in the hallway, her brother mimicking her. The two both had a bag and a guitar case. Both cases looked slightly different because of the different shapes.

Vee grabbed Dusty's hand and followed Savannah, making sure to leave the doorway wide open. She smiled at everyone in the room, but felt very strange seeing as she knew no one. "Hi," she said. "I'm Valencia and this is my brother Dusty," she introduced them. Hopefully this will be a good summer, she thought.

Dusty followed apprehensively. He didn't know anyone and was very nervous. He could tell his sister felt the same way. The only person she knew was Savannah. He smiled at everyone in the room then stood very close to Valencia. This better be a good summer, he thought.

Golden Monkey · 09-02-2007, 04:31 PM

Ari grinned as she hugged Vanna back her eyes filling up happily as she replied, "I'm glad I could come too! I was lucky actually." she laughed. "I got some good news to tell you lter." she whispered excitedly in Vannas ears

She glanced over at a woman who asked if she was alright and chuckled, "I'm fine. Sometimes me feet like to walk without my saying so that's all." she smiled and entered the house with the small crowd, almost being pushed like a tidal wave.

The next thing she knew she was in the livingroom surrounded by people. Some she knew, some she didn't. She recognized Sam and hugged her. "Hey you!" she said as she tried not to let her shyness show. It was hard though.

She saw two young people she immediatly recgognized from last summer and smiled, "Wow, you guys have grown!" she exclaimed happily, her bronze eyes shining. She wonderedd if they'd remember who she was, though she kinda doubted it.

She turned back to Vanna and joked, "I'm never going to remember everyone's name!" as she looked around at everyone. She was beginning to feel that pang of nervousness hit her, but strong as she waqs she bit it back and continued smiling.

The Old Toad · 09-02-2007, 04:53 PM

Gem blinked absent mindedly, swaying back and forth on her feet, and humming and off-tune muggle song under her breath. I wonder if Mudiwa's really a toad prince like Eliza said, she mused, stroking her large toad, who croaked with each touch. She held him up to eye level and giggled at the amphibian, winking at him cheerily before leaning forward and pressing her silky lips to his scaly ones. She pulled away to look at her pet, and immediately a large grin broke across her face. "I knew it!" She cried at the pond-dweller. "I knew you were a prince! Your majesty," she curtsied, trying not to drop him as her multicolored backpack folded over and bopped her on the head. The slightly insane girl rocked her toad back and forth, laughing with glee. "What kingdom do you rule?" She asked Mudiwa, who blinked dully in reply. "Ah I see! The Kingdom By The Pond! Amazing, your Highness. Truly wonderful!" The ditzy girl placed Mud promptly atop of her black and blonde hair, and then abruptly skipped into the house, each step causing the violet toad's mud brown eyes to slightly bulge.

ooc: be back in five hours or more

D.A Forever · 09-02-2007, 04:56 PM

Kaitlynnh smiled, happily, returning her older cousins hug. "Thanks!" She giggled, playing with a strand of her curly hair. "So has Julian.." Katie added; refuring to her twin brother.

Emma jumped slightly, at the sound of her name. but turned with a smile as it was one of her younger cousins. "Hey Benny. Yes.. I did, it's going to be fun. Benjamin agree'd," She laughed, givig him a hug, "It's good to see you again. My my .. it seems you're all gaining up on me; your all growning too quickly."

Emmylyne's face lit up almost, at the mention of her beautiful baby girl. "Lainie is absolutely wonderful, I'm going to bring her down, in a minute. actually."

In the next room, abit further down the hall and to the right, a closed door, there was a rather loud 'bang' Causing the the already rather nervous young woman to jump again. Her hazel brown eyes darted in the direction of the house library. What in merlins beard was that? they didn't have any animal's.. other then their neighbors that they were babysitting, and their guests. but that door was closed the whole time.

Only seconds later, Emma's silent question was answered, when the door opened and Skyler, another one of her teenage cousins, and Sky's toddler sister, Daphney came out of the room, closing the door quietly behind herself as she held onto Daphney's little hand. "Sorry.." She said quietly, her face abit red. They had clearly come by flew powder, and had arrived through the fireplace in the Lawley's library. Picking the toddler up, Sky went over and hugged her cousins, before stopping at Emma. "Really sorry. I tripped. Were's the baby?" She asked after a second of glancing around.

"It's fine, no worries Sky, dear. Awww-" Emmy cooed, playing with Daphney's outstreched hand, "She's adorable." And she was, with her little puffy 'princess tutu dress' and her strawberry blonde hair all curled at the tips. Emma took the baby, from her younger cousin and bounced her gently on her hip. Allowing Sky to go say her hellos. "No one's babysitting this summer, except me. I'll watch her. go on now." She smiled brightly, looking to Daphney again.

Madison waved a small hello to everyone, and Kaitlynnh ran up and hugged Massie. Her reading friend from last year.

Kailani, slowly walked through the front door. looking rather shy. right as her mum (Though you'd never in a million years be able to guess that it was the girl's mother, since one looked fully Hawaiian, and the other Japanese/French) came in after her. Mrs. Saunders placed her hand on her daughter's shoulder, guiding her into the big hallway were most of everyone was. "Hello everyone. Emma darling-" Oliana greeted, allowing Kailani to wonder over to Madison. as she went over to Emmylyne. "How's the baby? Good I hope." She smiled, seeing the young woman nod. "I've got to find my boys, I'll make sure to say goodbye before leaving though." taking the pretty yellow flower out of her hair, she placed it in Emmy's, and gave her a hug before walking off to find Wyatt and Alexander. and Gordon. "Boys. Alexander, Wyatt, Gordon. Come here." She called, though regretted it as she spotted Alex with Alicia, his girlfriend. She supposed.

Kaitlynnh watched 'Xander' as she used to call him, only a year ago, with Alicia and her father, and started giggling. Madison, shook her head amusedly, and started talking to Kailani.

Savannah finally noticed what her younger sister was laughing again, and rolled her eyes, quickly going over to the younger group. "That's enough now. Madi, why don't you guys see if any of the kids your age, or anyone else really, wants to go outside. and you can show them around? Leave the adults, Alicia and Alex to talk. without silly giggling. Hmm." She said with a small smile to Kaitlynh, whom started rocking back and forth innocently.

"Sure. Alright, would Emma care though?" Madison asked, and smiled when Savannah shook her head. "Katiecub, go see if that little boy wants to come outside," She told her, her navy blue eyes traveling around the large group. as Kaitlynnh ran off. Taking Kailani by the hand, she dragged her along through afew people, before stopping infront of Massie. "Hi! I'm Madison, and this is Kailani; Alex's sister. Do you want to come outside with us?" She asked brightly.
Kailani gave Madi a weird look, but laughed then quickly waved to Massie, "Yep, I'm Kailani. Nice to meet you."

Savannah looked around, just about spinning in a repeated circle. but quickly stopped, as she realized she was doing that.
"Gosh.." Vannah mumbled, brushing her bangs back. it took her till just then, to notice that her big brother, Alex, Wyatt and Gordon, never said hello to her! Not properly. Seeing Alex talking with Alicia and her father, Savannah decided he was off the hook, but as for the others...

Turning back to Valencia and Dusty, her face turned only a very little pinker, when he kissed her hand. "Nice to meet you too, and your very welcome. Though this whole summer was my big sister's idea," She replied.

"Uhm, I'll introduce everyone in abit.. when it's no so.. crazy?" Savannah said unsurely, in a quiet voice. Oh geeze. When wasn't it going to be crazy. She turned sharply, hearring running down the hall, it was the boys, again, fighting over that stupid basketball, but they turned down another hall then seemed to have gone out in the backyard.

Why can't summer's ever just be normal? Really now?

"Conner Michael Mae, Gordon Lee Spinner and Wyatt Dustin Saunders!" She called, hands now on hips. but they obviously didn't hear her, or just didn't care, because they didn't come back.

Oliana put her hands on her son's shoulders. letting him know she was there without saying anything at first. "They grow up so fast.. don't they?" She said, smiling to Mr. Cruze. "I swear, just the other day there was only one little baby running around and that was Emmylyne. now theirs so many more, and their all sprouting like little rose bushes!" She laughed, holding out her hand to Alicia's father, adding; "I'm Wyatt, Alexander and Kailani's mother, Oliana." Oliana then turned her kind, dark brown eyes to Alicia, with a cheerful expression. "And you must be the lovely young lady my Alex always talks about, Alicia, I hope?"

"No worries, You'll probably hear Emma shoutting off abunch of names, at some point, because she can't remember who's who." Savannah said to Ari, giggling lightly.

"Cute Vina, very." Emma sarcastically said, playfully. walking past. she went over to Ms. Oliana, Alex, Alicia and Garret. "I'm going to go get the baby. Alex, would you be a doll and hold her please, thankyou hun." She said, lowering two year old, confused, Daphney into the teenage boy's arms. before carefully making her way out of the crowded hall, and up stairs, fastly.

Kaitlynnh ran off, to do as she was asked. and find the little boy she had spotted earlier, with a girl Alicia, and Savannah had called Lex. Weeeeird. Shrugging her thoughts away, Little Katie swerved through people, before finally finding the little boy. "Hi!" She said politely. moving her curls out of her face again. before waving to Legend's older sister. then turned her ocean blue eyes (Same as Savannah's) Back to the boy, "Wanna come outside with us?"

OOC: Eeep. so much to tyyype.

KK Nik.
