When the class ends, I walk to her desk. Rebecca is still here. They are talking, complaining about the class. marie looks at me, and stands up. 

"Are you ready?" I ask. 

"I am." 

Reb details us, does she not remember?

"Oh right, you're sleeping at Silver's house. I'm sorry my mother didn't accept."

"It's alright, Reb." 

"Call me if he's being mean to you, alright?"

"Hey Reb, I'm never mean." 

"Continue lying to yourself, Silver." 

Max appears behind us and offers to take Rebecca home. She accepted and they left. With 'Marie', we walked to my house. Yesterday, someone broke into the Miller's house, and even though it's 'safe' now, 'Marie's' window is still broken. Tomorrow it'll be fixed but for tonight, she has to sleep at someone else's house. Reb, can't because of her mother. Liam was supposed to but he got sick this morning. Max doesn't want to take 'Marie' or any girl because of his brother. So yeah she ended up with me. My family is really happy about it and now I'm scared to bring her home. We arrived, I sighed because we could hear the agitation from outside. I open the door and let 'Marie' enter. 

"I'm home!" I scream over the noise.

"Hello darling," says my mom. 

She kissed my forehead before pushing me to the side to see the guest aka 'Marie'. 

"You must be Marie, I'm glad to finally meet you!"

Suddenly, my older sister and older brother arrive running into the house like animals. Even though they are twins and have the same stupid personality, one looks like my father and little sister and the other one looks like my mother and me. They break into the living room and practically jump on 'Marie'. 

"Do you believe it? He finally brought her here!"

"I know, right? Hi, nice to meet you, Marie. I'm Laurence." 

" And I'm Jess. It's nice to see you bring a friend after so many time!" 

"Nice to meet you ...," she says, unsure if she means it. 

I sigh, maybe I should have warned her of how my family is. And yet, she hasn't met Millie, my little sister. Guess I'll have to protect Demonia from Satan. We progress in the living while my family continues asking her questions like how she ended up here, in Atlanta, I get us food. 

Later, we're playing Mario kart on the switch with the twins. Of course, I'm winning. The door opens and this time it's my father and mini Satan. They come to greet us. 

"Nice to meet you, Marie."

"Hello sir," she respond. 

"Dad, you're blocking the TV!" Scream Jess. 

My father grabs the controller and plays with us. He wins the game while Jess screams behind him.

"Silver play with your little sister!" Scream my mom.

"Oh, come on, mom! She wants to play knight and dragon!"

"What? You're scared you're gonna be lame at playing the dragon!"

I was about to contradict my father when my sister said:
