The Weekend Starts

The last few days have been hectic, but Saturday has finally arrived. Amanda gets her room situated as Derek and Odette will be coming over to spend the weekend. She's getting into the habit of getting together with them every weekend, whether she goes to their place or they visit her. 

"Ah, my favorite part of the week." Said Amanda with a smile. "Mine too, especially since the lads and I have off from putting together more songs." Said Paul. "I meant to ask about that. How's your next album coming along?" Amanda asked. "So far so good, we recorded seven songs." Paul said.

A knock on the door occurs. "I think that's them now." Said Amanda. She looks through the peep hole then opens the door. "Hello, sis!" Said Odette. "Hey, you two! Come on in and make yourselves at home!" Amanda said as she hugs her siblings one at a time and lets them into the room.

"How about those last few days, huh?" Asked Derek. "Oh, blimey they were stark raving mad!" Said Paul. "I know, right? First Paul feels a stabbing pain in his leg after being 'marked', the four of us fall under a strange sleeping spell, then we meet Lamia's vengeful sister as she puts Paul in a coma!" Amanda said. "I hope Lamia doesn't have any other relations." Odette said.

The four of them all shudder. "Anyway, who's thirsty?" Asked Amanda. Her husband and siblings all raise their hands, then the swan princess heads off to the kitchen to grab drinks for them and herself. As she's about to pour some water, she notices a fancy bottle on the counter.
