Wrath family of loose virtues

I laughed in my mind at Sloth. You can come here and meet her when she comes then brother, I tell him flatly.

"Patience do you have any other siblings by chance," I asked curiously, watching her make coffee. She eyed me strangely.

"I have my sister Ida, Cheryl and brother Abstinence, who's a sweetheart that swings for both sexes, my dad thinks he's possessed," she laughed softly. Oh my, I think that young man is my virtue, Gluttony purred in my brain. I was laughing hysterically and Patience eyed me funny.

"Your siblings are virtues, two sins are going ape shit," I tell her with a grin.

"Let me guess, gluttony and sloth," she smiled and I nodded. She chewed on her bottom lip and shrugged.

"I can have them both stay for a few weeks if your sins want to come, I have plenty of room," she suggested. I asked both sins and they both excitedly said yes.

"Their demons will be pissed," I tell her bluntly. She shrugged and paused to think.

"I need to get more salt to finish the outside, I'll stop at the store after work today," she mumbled softly.

"Gluttony's demon is one of the princes of hell, Patience, I don't think salt will work on Beelzebub," I say sadly. Her eyes widened and she shivered slightly.

"I thought that was satan," she sighed.

"Misconceptions dear." Lucifer is the one true Satan and Pride's creator, that's why Pride's very ancient, his has been around forever," I state simply.

"Guess I'll need to bring out the big guns then, I'll ask the priest to come and bless my home," she grinned and sighed, bringing us both cups of coffee to the kitchen table. Patience lifted her cell phone, called her sister back and told her about some friends that would be staying here during the time she stayed. Ida seemed excited and said she'd be here later in the day, when their father could drop her off. Patience ended the call and looked at me worried.

"I'll be at work and you'll be here to meet my dad," she groaned loudly, rubbing her face. I sipped my coffee and smirked at her.

"I've taken the name Antonio, please call me that from henceforth, if you can remember," I smiled at her and added, "It will be fine, I will behave, promise." She nodded and called her brother, telling him to come stay for a while to visit, he said he could be there tomorrow. Later that afternoon I watched Patience drive off for work. I see my two siblings appear in the yard carrying suitcases. They were both the youngest of the deadly sins, Gluttony being only fifty years. Gluttony had long auburn hair, looked like a beautiful woman, dressed in a mint green skin tight dress, she had perfect breast implants, only her large package took away from the perfect illusion. Sloth looked like an emo college kid, his shaggy black hair and bright blue eyes scanned the area. He was wearing faded bluejeans and a black t-shirt. I opened the front door and they both ran up to me.

"Hey, Wrath, your whole aura is different, you're happy," Sloth mumbled, eyeing me strangely. I shrugged and held the door for them both. I asked them if they remembered their real names. Sloth said his was Eide, Gluttony purred Jason but she said she was fond of Jasmine. I took them to their rooms. Patience had cleaned up for them and explained that her sister would be arriving around three which was in a few minutes. I told them Patience's father was a preacher and I didn't want him knowing the pair were here.

"Make sure you hide yourselves until he leaves or I don't think he'll leave Ida here," I state firmly and they both nod.

"How'd you both get allowed to come," I question curiously. They both looked at each other and grinned guilty.
