I sigh then slowly open the bathroom door to see Murdoc and Joseph talking. I walk over to the bedroom door and open it causing a long loud creak to come from the rusty hinges. I smile as I see Hannibal and Jake come up the stairs. They yell "HAPPY BIRTHDAY SKYLAR!" in unison. Their yelling was unexpected and it surprised me that they would do that made me jump a little. Hannibal and Murdoc put a blindfold on me and someone picked me up and was carrying me somewhere "Who's carrying me?" I ask a little scared. Josephs voice calmed me down when he said "I am sister. Why would I let Hannibal or Jacob carry such delicate and beautiful cargo." he tickled my neck making me giggle. Then I feel someone untying the blindfold. I smile as they pull it off. I was outside, still in Joseph's arms. I hug Joseph and that's when I see Jake carrying a two layered cake with white icing and ten candles in the center that were surrounded by words saying Happy Birthday Skylar!!. I smile with tears welling up in my eyes. Joseph set me down at a poorly built picnic table and said "Happy birthday sis." I smile and tears pour down my cheeks. "What's wrong luv?" Hannibal asks worriedly. "I'm happy. These are happy tears! Thank you guys so much!" They all smile and then a little blue haired boy walked up and tugged at the bottom of my tank top. "Why awe yew cwying miss?" I look down at him and say "Its my birthday and I am so happy I started crying." he looked at me and smiled. I notice that his two front teeth are gone. "Why is your hair blue?" The boy looked at me. He smiled and said "Because I felw out of a twee and my haiw felw out and it came back bwue." I smile, his voice was so adorable! "Where are your parents?" He looked around then pointed to the house across the street saying "We live right ovew dere." I pick him up and carry him across the street. I knock in the front door and a woman that looked like she might be a nurse answered the door. "Hello is this your son?" she nodded slowly and said "Why did 'e get into any trouble?" I shook my head and said "Not at all. He just wandered into our yard to ask me a question." The woman looked at the boy and back at me saying "Would you like to babysit him a few days a week? I need someone to watch him while me and his dad work." I nod and say "Sure I'll watch him. I live right across the street so if you need me to watch him just bring him over." I smile and she gestures me to come inside. We walk into a room and she yells "James! We have a guest!" A man with grease splotches comes in and asks "Who's this?" The woman said "Stuart's babysitter. I was gonna give her the folder of all the stuff she needs to know about little Stu." The man said "Well...um...my name is James TussPot. This is Clarisse TussPot my wife and the little boy your holding is little Stuart Pot. The only reason why his last name is Pot and not TussPot is because he is better than a TussPot he is a Pot." I nod and look at Stuart who is poking at one of the semon stains that I forgot on the bottom of my chin. "How old are you?" James asked me. I look at him and say "Seventeen years old, sir. Today is my seventeenth birthday." Stuart tickles my neck and I start laughing. James asked me curiously "What is your name?" I stop laughing and say "Skylar Champion, sir." He nods and says "Don't touch my son in any weird ways!" I nod.
