Chapter #9
Scarlett’s POV
“Chris, get away from the oven.” I tell the giant man child in my kitchen. “But cookies.” He whines. “Oh my lord. Louri, come get the man child.” I call out. “Chris, you heard her.” Louri calls back from the living room where she and Shanna are playing mario. “Fine.” He sighs before leaving the kitchen. “He reminds me of a kid at preschool.” Devon says. “Ha that he does huh?” I chuckle. “Mean.” Chris whines. “You are proving his point Chris.” I tell him. “Agh fuck Gizmo!” Bri shrieks when he jumps on her shoulder scaring her. “Don’t yell at my four legged child!” Louri yells. “Don’t yell at my girlfriend.” Shanna scolds. “Oh this is gonna be good.” Chris says. “Or what huh?” Louri taunts. “Or this.” She says. “AH! Tittie down I repeat tittie down.” Louri groans. “I’ll be right back. I've got to get something from my office.” Louri says oh shit I know what she’s doing and last time it took hours to clean. “NOT IN THE HOUSE!” I yell chasing after her. “Hehehehehe.” Louri giggles as she pulls multiple cans of silly string out of her desk. “How many cans do you have?” I ask. “Two drawers.” She shrugs. “Just please not in the house.” I tell her. “Ok. Hey Devon, come here!” She calls out and he comes running in. “Ok little Marine I have a mission for you ok.” She tells. “What’s the mission, Colonel Mama?” He asks with a little salute that she returns that was adorable. “I need you to get your Auntie Shanna to go outside in five minutes. I'll be waiting for you with these. I will put yours on the ground so you can pick it up and use it when we get her out there. I'll say go and that’s when you pick yours up and use it on her ok. Do you think you can do that for me little Marine?” She asks. “Yes Colonel Mama.” He says giving her another salute which she returns again.
Louri’s POV
“Can I help?” Scarlett asks. “Yes, pick a color and let’s go.” I tell her and pick up the bag of silly string cans and we sneak outside. “He called you Colonel Mama. I thought my heart was going to burst with how cute he is.” Scarlett says. “We do have adorable kids.” I smile. “Chris and Bri have the twins with them right?” I ask. “Yes they do.” Scarlett says. “Ok so you stand here I’ll stand here. And here’s Devon’s.” I say placing Devons can on the ground. “Ok Devon what did you want to show me?” Shanna asks him and I see him pick up the can while she’s not looking. “Come with me Mama has a whole workshop.” He says and when they get halfway to my shop I yell out. “GO!” I yell and Devon, Scarlett, and I cover my big sister in silly string. “Here Shanny. I got one for you to use on me, it's only fair.” I say calling her the nickname she despises. “You know I hate that name.” She yells and I run and she is able to catch me and pulls the back of my shirt and sprays the entire can of silly string in my shirt. “Ugh Shanna ew!” I whine, ripping my shirt off. “Oooo.” Scarlett says. “Your back is covered in pink and green lines.” Bri laughs. “Just wait till you see your girlfriend.” I smile as Shanna walks into the kitchen covered in silly string. “Scarlett and Devon are still out there having a silly string war.” She says. “Shanna, I can lend you some clothes if you want to take a shower.” I tell her. “Yes please.” She says. “No problem.” I tell her and walk her upstairs. “Why did you have to get Devon involved?” Shanna asks. “Because he’s my little Marine and he loves playing with silly string.” I tell her as I hand her a pair of sweats. “Oh when I called him into my office to recruit his help I said I have a mission for you little Marine and he said what is the mission Colonel Mama with a little salute. It was so cute.” I gush. “You can use our shower.” I tell her pointing to the bathroom in the master bedroom. “Thank you.” She says. “No problem, just bring me your clothes and I will wash them for you since I’m the reason they are a mess.” I tell her. “Thanks squish.” She says. “Wow, I haven't heard that nickname in a long time. I say putting a tank top on after I wiped my shoulders off. “Well get used to it squish.” She smiles. “I’ll see you downstairs.” I tell her and she nods. I hear Devon and Scarlett laughing as I watch them chase each other around the back yard. “They are really having fun out there.” Bri says. “Feel free to join them. There are plenty of cans in that bag.” I tell her pointing to the big bag of silly string cans. “Oh I’m good, I don't like the feeling of it on my skin. It’s just a weird texture.” She says. “Understandable.” I say. “What happened to the cookies?” I ask. “Your brother put them on the cooling rack right behind you.” She says.
