Remember December

Chapter:4

                I smile as I watch Mom and Mitch dancing in the kitchen. I walk past the kitchen and turn left. I push the sliding door open. I look at the snow and shiver. I walk down he steps onto the cold snow. My slippers sunk into the snow. I smile as I see the swings and slide cover with snow. I shiver and continue on toward the tree house. I look at the ladder as snow drop from it. The ladder swung back and forth as wind howl. I remember when dad build this. It was eight years ago. I wasn't going to go up there. I haven't been up there in years. Who knows if it can still hold my weight? I shiver and look around the backyard. I look down toward my phone to see it was 6.

                I walk back toward the patio door. The cold hit me like a truck, as I enter the warmth of the house. As I slide the patio door close. I jump at the sound of Mitch voice.

"You know she wouldn't like that you left the patio door open"

I smile "morning Mitch you know she wouldn't like that you ate one of her chocolate turtles"

He smirk. "Touché"

I frown as I saw mom walk into the dining room. "Now what was that about the patio door and my turtles?"

Mitch and our eyes widen. He jump and turn toward her. He chuckle. "I was going to tell you, but...."

Mom laugh and smile. "Come on you two breakfast ready"

I shook my head. "Sorry, can't or I'm going to be late" I walk past them and was about to go upstairs.

"I already call the school, you're not going, and you need rest"

My eyes widen. It turn toward her. "Mom you what! I can't miss any more days, I'm graduating in a month, their things I need to do"

She roll her eyes and walk into the kitchen. "You're staying home and that's final Chelsea"

I sigh and was about to walk upstairs. Till the doorbell rang. "Chelsea get the door!"

I sigh and walk downstairs. I stop as I saw them through the glass door window.

"Chelsea! You better open this door, we smell chocolate chip waffles and pancakes" Jake yell

"Don't forget bacon" Ash said.

I curse and walk over to the door. I put the lock chain on. I unlock the bottom lock and open the door a crack. "She set this up?" I ask them.

"Yep now you better unlock this door, before I break the chain, I am freezing" Andre threaten.

I roll my eyes and remove the chain. I stumble as they push the door open and barge in. they head straight for the kitchen. I roll my eyes and close the door. I frown and walk toward the kitchen to see them all eating like crazy. I pull out a chair. "By all means barge in and eat 'my' food" I said to them.

"Don't mind if we do" Ash drown her pancakes and waffles in syrup. I roll my eyes.

I sat down and place grits, Bacon and ham on my plate. I ate away as my friends help themselves to seconds and thirds. I roll my eyes. I got up and place my plate and silverware in the dishwasher.

"Now I left money, I put away all the glass and china's in the upstairs closet" mom said as she enter the kitchen.

"Don't worry Olivia nothing will be damage and the house will be the same way as you left it" Jake said.

She narrow her eyes at Jake. "I don't believe the words that just comes out your mouth" she turn toward me. "Keep an eye on them and if you break something you replace it" I nod. She grab Mitch hand and they exit the house. Once we heard the front door close and lock. We attack the fridge.
