As soon as we pull into the driveway I walk up to the door, and I go in not caring about the door as I make my way up the stairs to my bedroom. 

I just go through the door when I hear "Benny get down here!" I sigh rolling my eyes as I turn around walking to go back down the stairs and I look over to see dad sitting on the chair. 

He gestures his hand for me to sit on the couch in front of him and I do. I'm sitting there waiting for him to talk and he finally speaks asking "Alright I wasn't going to push it but I'm a little worried so talk to me."

I know he isn't asking so I answer "Uh fine, it really wasn't anything, but the creepy teacher Mr. Snare signaled me out and so I answered his question about 3 different supernatural creatures. 

I mentioned Dracula, the Wolf Man and Crowley but because I mentioned Crowley, he started asking even more questions that creeped me out like what I know of Demons. He even told me to write it down for extra credit and yeah so basically he stressed me out." 

I look up as my dad gets up sitting next to me putting a hand on my shoulder as he speaks "It's alright Benny. So, you had a stressful day, everyone gets stressed. 

Besides your teacher is just a creep. Nothing to worry about. Not like you know everything about Demons just maybe more than most. Doesn't mean anything serious, so I say go for extra credit especially if it's easy." 

I give a surprised look and ask, "You're not mad?" He shakes his head and smiles before saying "No, I was just worried about what happened. I'm just glad it's nothing too serious." 

I nod before he stands asking me "Now tell me when are you going to have your friends over anyway?" I look at him with disbelief and stand up ignoring him as I go to my room. 

I flop down onto my bed as I hear a light knock and I lift my head to see my dad standing in the doorway. I put my head back down now staring at the ceiling and he speaks "You know I was just joking around, right?" 

I don't move but I respond, "Yeah dad I know." He speaks again "But in all seriousness what's preventing you from inviting them over?" 

This time I sit up looking at my father surprised that he doesn't know so I tell him "Seriously? Look at yourself and let me know if I need to elaborate!" 

He looks at himself and shrugs as I roll my eyes as I elaborate more "You and mom look my age and somehow you're my dad and she's, my mom. If my friends, ask where my parents are do I say oh they're at work and then what happens if they ask where. What if . . ." 

My dad interrupts my rant "Woah, woah, woah slow down. Alright I get it. Look if you want you can say we're just family friends staying with my mom's brother and Lydia is my girlfriend. While you tell them your dad is the Sheriff. How about that?" 

I think it over and that's not a bad idea "That actually seems it could work. Alright but just because you're pretending to be family friends your still not as old as you look."

His jaw drops open and he puts his hand to his chest in mock hurt and says "Ohh ow shots fired, man down, man down

His jaw drops open and he puts his hand to his chest in mock hurt and says "Ohh ow shots fired, man down, man down." 

He falls to the floor, and I just shake my head asking, "You think I could call Ethan now and invite him over?" 

He looks up at me from on the floor and get up off the floor before saying "Of course and don't worry we'll behave." I'm immediately regretting this, but I get my phone and I call Ethan. 

He picks up and I say "yo E, I finally got my dad to let you come over and hang out. One reason it took so long was because my dad has his sister's family friends here, so if you're okay with them then come on over." 

It's quiet on the other end of the line before he says "On my way Benny, see you soon. Send me the directions." I tell him before hanging up the phone "Will do E, see you." 

I put the phone down and I walk out to see my mom and Claud. I walk over as I tell my mom "So I just invited E over." She says in surprise "Oh my God, about time." 

I then explain why and how this will work. After I explained it, my mom says, "Oh that's all, alright." She then bends down picking Claud up asking her "You think you can call me Lydia until Benny's friend leaves?" 

She looks at our mom before nodding and says, "Yes Lydia" I smile with how cute that was and I say, "Thank you" they both nod at me as they go upstairs and there's a knock at the door, I say out loud "I'll get it." 

I open the door seeing Ethan and I tell him "E, come on in." He enters the house and I close the door as one of the family friends comes out of the kitchen introducing themselves to Ethan "Hi, I'm Stiles, nice to meet you." 

They shake as Ethan introduces himself "Hi, I'm Ethan, you look familiar." Stiles aka my dad smiles explaining "Oh yeah, that's because I drive Benny to school and in return we get to stay here." Ethan then asks "We?" 

Just then Lydia aka my mom comes downstairs introducing herself "We being Stiles and I. I'm Lydia nice to meet you." 

He then asks me "Didn't you say you had a little sister?" I say "Yeah I do Lydia takes care of Claudia while Stiles takes me to school and that's so my dad who works a lot of the time to get a break or at least so he can focus on work to pay for Claud and I." 

E nods and asks, "So where's your room at?" I smile and tell him "Follow me." He follows me up the stairs as I lead him to my room.
