{Kiki's POV}
I hear my mother and father walk in. Everyone is still on the floor and the theatre room is a mess! OMG. I quickly run and shut the door leading to upstairs. Then I pick up two pizza boxes. I start to smack everyone.
"GET UP!" I say. And no one gets up.
"MY MOM AND DAD ARE HOME!!" I scream, quietly. Then everyone gets up so fast my eyes hurt. Then we all start to clean up real fast. Mckenzie, Jazzy, and Avery are cleaning up. Me, Lisa and Jordan are setting up the beds. My mom is a worker at Craig's Homeless Shelter. Sometimes some people stay at our house for a night or so, so the shelter gave her some beds. They are full sized beds but they're big enough for us. And my mom said we can use them. We only have 4 beds and there is six of us, but the couch has a pull out bed big enough for two people.
We manage to clean up the theatre room in 2 minutes but the beds are taking a long time.
"Pull that part!" I say.
"I'm pulling as hard as I can!" Jordan says. Then Jazzy walks over and helps us set up the beds.
{Avery's POV}
We're all lying on the floor when Kiki just goes around and starts smacking us with empty pizza boxes. OUCH!
"MY MOM AND DAD ARE HOME!!" Kiki says. Then we all get up really fast. Because we all know that Kiki's dad can be very....well....mean. But her mom is so nice. Mckenzie, Jazzy, and I are cleaning up the theatre room. Kiki and the others are setting up the beds. We finish cleaning the theatre room in about 2 min.
Kiki and Jordan are having a hard time setting up the beds so Jazzy goes and helps them. There are only 4 beds and 6 of us so two of us have to sleep in one bed.
"Hay Lisa and I can sleep in the couch bed. Do you want to Lisa." I say.
"Sure!" She says.
I check the time and it's 3:02 a.m. Then I hear footsteps.
"Someone's coming!" I whisper/scream. We all jump into bed. I quickly cover Lisa then cover myself. We all look like we're actually sleeping! We may pull this off. Then slowly we all drift off to sleep.
{Kiki's Mom (Elena)}
Barry (Kiki's dad) and I just came back from a wonderful evening of diner and dancing. As we walk in I hear scuffling down below. Sounds like Kiki and her friends are awake. So I walk into the basement and hear whispering. When I finally look in the basement everyone is..... I mean "looks" asleep. I let out a little chuckle and go back upstairs. But right before I do I take a long look at Avery, Jazzy, Lisa. Those poor girls don't have someone who really loves them and cares for them. I wish I could help them. Then I get a thought. But as I continue to think Barry calls my name.
"Come on Elena. Time for bed." Barry says.
"Coming Barry." I say and turn out the lights.
