The Campbells

Chapter 9

As the two cousins approached Aaron's parent's house, they saw a yellow Lamborghini speed ahead of them.

Aaron then looked at her older cousin Ashley and started "Bye gurl, and thanks for the coffee."

Ashley watched Aaron get out of her car, then she said "you're welcome babe, and next time you want to go guy hunting just call me."

Aaron laughed and looked at Ashley as she walked away from the car, then retorted "I'm telling you for the millionth time I'm seeing someone."

Ashley rolled down her car's window and shouted back "Until he officially asks you out you can still see other people."

Aaron waved her hands while saying "whatever bye"

Ashley was driving out of the driveway when she shouted one last time "bye girl"

Aaron walked over to her brother excited about the party that was happening the next day. As she got closer and closer she noticed her brother who was anxious and frustrated at the same time waiting for something by the driveway, as he ended a phone call.

Aaron then started "Hey Noah why are you out here not in there?"

Noah smiling excitedly responded "Hi Aaron um you know our little plan that we talked about last week?"

Aaron confused "Yeah?"

Noah's mischievous smile crept on his face while explaining "Well, I added a special surprise... fireworks!"

Aaron excitedly suddenly raised her voice in joy as she hugged her older brother "oh my god! You're kidding? This is going to be epic this one for the books."

Noah whispering nervously "keep your voice down or someone will hear you. And the "FW" will arrive tomorrow... oh "FW" is code for fireworks."

Aaron smirking responded to her brother "I'm not you I understood the first time, and it's one word"

Noah then started in a sarcastic tone "haha very funny"

Suddenly as Aaron and Noah were walking to the front door the house door rips open and they see their mother shouting in joy "my babies you're home finally."

As their mother embraces her children in a warm hug their father and sisters watch from the doorway. Then Robert started "Andrea stop this they are adults."

Shain annoyed "They may look older but they act like they're six."

Robert looked at his daughter and responded "and your mother is not any better"

Andrea heard what her daughter and husband just shared "Oh Robert, stop it they will always be my babies. and Noah, Aaron I have a surprise for both of you."

Aaron excitedly "ooow what did you get me? is it the car I wanted?"

Andrea pointing to the stairs "be patient its in your rooms."

Shain then interrupted "I didn't find anything in my room or is my gift just lost."

"well you wanted to be independent so I just figured you don't want gifts anymore."

"what! No a gift is a gift that I will accept willingly."

Robert whispering to his daughter "don't worry I gave you a raise yesterday."

Shain frustrated "I want to earn my money not just have it handed to me."

Shain walks towards the stairs to go to her room, suddenly she spots her bag by the stairs where she left it for the butler to take it to her room "off course he didn't take my bag but he took Aaron's."

Shain angrily picked up her bag and went up the stairs where she passed by her younger sister Mona. Mona walked down to greet her other older siblings who just arrived.

The butler walked in the room with cold water glasses.

Aaron exclaimed in a very loud voice "oh my god is that you Joffrey cuz you look ten years younger than the last time I saw you."

Joffrey started while handing out water to everyone "oh Ms. Aaron I've missed you too, and you to master Noah"

Noah laughing "hey Jo how's life been treating you?"

Joffrey smiled and retorted "good good"

Noah set the glass down after taking a small sip and started while walking up to his room "ok see ya and the bag is in the car."

Joffrey mumbling loudly "Joffrey do this, Joffrey get that, Joffrey fetch this..."

When the house calmed down again and Robert was taking his afternoon nap on the couch of the family room and Aaron and Noah just entered their rooms suddenly Aaron shrieked happily "oh my god mom!"

Andrea walked in the room worried "what happened? Are you okay?"

Aaron holding her gift in her hands "yes are you kidding this diamond necklace will look amazing with my dress for tomorrow."

Andrea smiling proudly "I'm glad you like it lets check on your brother"

Andrea and her daughter walked over to her son's room. When they walk in they are greeted by her son's voice "mom is that you?"

Andrea walking in her son's room "yes honey, do you like your gift?"

Noah looked at his mom in shock "are you kidding how did you even get this its not even out yet."

Andrea then answered "well my friend's husband is one of the senior partners in the company and all I had to say is that my son is waiting for the smart watch to come out then she sent it the next day, how nice of her."
