The Mark of the Silon

Part 7

I don't have anything witty or funny to write here so I'll get straight on with it and let you enjoy the next part.

Kota was the first to arrive to my home by which time we had finished off the ice cream and was playing Mario Kart on the Wii.

"Hey, are you doing any better?" He asked sympathetically.

"Yeah I am. I know he can't come back it was just hard to hear what happened. Plus the ice-cream helped." I said smiling but not looking off the screen, it was Rainbow Road and I had all to play for.

"Good, I might just get some myself." He wondered into the kitchen. Owen and I both shared a look at each other, he smiled at me and I giggled a little. I paused the game so we didn't have to focus on that.

"DID YOU EAT THE WHOLE TUB?" He came in, showing the empty box at us and I giggled some more. "YOU GREEDY... SO AND SO'S" I had to laugh , and even Owen chuckled.

"I would say I'm sorry, but I'm really not." Owen said still smiling and causing me to giggle once again, when I got him out of his shell like this, he was so funny.

"Me neither," I remarked, playing the game again. Owen was very close to finishing but because he had no warning about replaying, he fell of the edge and I finished the race first. "YES! I win"

"You little cheat!" He shouted at me teasingly, he took off the strap to the controller and started coming towards me, I threw my wheel down and ran out of the living room, giggling. "Sang?" I made my way through the corridor and just had to get out the front door. I saw him at the other end smirking a little evil. I turned the handle and swung open the door when I was greeted by a hard chest, causing me to shriek.

"Well well, what's going on here Pookie?" Dr Sean asked, assessing the situation. He opened his arms up and gave me a warm hug. He let go but still held onto my arms.

"Owen's chasing me. Tell him to stop." I said, putting on my most vulnerable voice which if he saw me smiling, knew it would be false.

"She cheated on Rainbow Road." He remarked, sounding just as childish and it made me giggle again.

"And she ate all the ice-cream!" Kota said as he entered, holding up the box as proof.

"Well, the cheating I could let you get away with but as you ate all my ice-cream, this is not acceptable. Owen, here is one Miss Sang for you." He said, at which point I realised he still had my arms and now was not letting go so easily. Owen picked me up and spun me round a little before heading to the back of the house. I tried to protest but my laughter allowed me to do little else. He put me over one shoulder so I couldn't see where he was taking me. I heard him open the patio door and I knew exactly what was coming. The pool.

He ran a few paces and instead of depositing me in the water, he jumped in with me. He let go as soon as we hit the water so I was able to get to the surface. We both broke at roughly the same time gasping for air in between our laughter.

"Why did you come in with me?" I asked, swimming towards the edge to pull myself out.

"I ate half of the tub." He winked and pulled himself up. I was shortly behind him as he pulled me into a hug.

"Thank you for today, for looking after me and having a good time." I said to him. I don't exactly know what I saw in his eyes then but it looked like h finally found his place. Although, he was one of the first to be found in our family, he was the most broken.

"I think we should get dry before everyone else gets here. Then I will call the family meeting you want." I nodded and headed inside. This meeting would change us all again.
