Thursday
LIZZ MAYBERRY POV
For once this week I didn't awake to my alarm clock. I woke to moaning. What? Oh yeah. Ben and Madeline were together again. I heard the headboard in the room next to mine bang against the wall repeatedly. Great. They were having sex in my guest bedroom. I'm supprised how thin the walls are, really. Well. This is awkward.
I decided to ignore this gross fact and go downstairs. I would have had to get up in about 10 minutes anyway. Honestly. Who has sex at 6:45 in the morning? I mean, come on! I'm going to be gone at work the whole day, you just couldn't wait? This is just disgusting.
I shook my head as I heard the shower turn on. I poured some cereal. Then I sat down at the island in my kitchen. I started reading the comics. What else am I going to do? That's when I got a text message from Mrs. Ryder saying she would be home around 5 tonight. Yay! That means I can go home early!
I brushed my teeth and headed back upstairs. I figured it was safe now. I went into my closet to pick out an outfit. I grabbed dark blue jean shorts and a tie-dye t-shirt. Then I put on my Addidas sandals.
I returned downstairs and styled my hair. I just pulled it back into a half ponytail. It looked good. Okay, it looked presentable. It looked all right? Good enough. Yeah, good enough. It will have to do. I walked into my living room and turned on my TV, turning on Netflix. Then I started watching an episode of Psych. I still had a while until I had to leave.
I heard Ben coming down the stairs and decided I wasn't going to let him off the hook for this morning. I grinned evilly to myself. My house, I reserve the right to embarrass him.
"So, Ben. Having a good time with Madeline?" I started off casually.
"Yeah," he starts suspiciously, "I missed her a lot." I paused the TV to look at him now.
"Ahh. So I've heard. You do know that I fully expect you to wash my sheets. That is, unless you to be doing it again any time soon." His eyes flew open wide and I'm supprised didn't fall out.
"I- uhm (cough and clear throat) I- I. Err..... ye- yeah. All right," he managed to stutter out. I casually turned around and resumed my favorite show.
"Good," I said simply. He coughed uncomfortably once more before turning around and heading back upstairs. "And Ben?" I called.
"Erm, yeah?"
"I'll be done early tonight. Harry will probally come over because this is practically his second home, and I was thinking about all four of us going to dinner. As long as this time you boys don't bet on the waitress," I said.
"Yeah, sure."
"Sweet."
I turned back to my Psych and finished that episode. Then I headed to the Ryder's. Mrs. Ryder left a note for me. It read:
Today, all Matt and I have to do is hold a meeting and get some work done in the morning. The meeting is at 3:00 pm and we will be home any time between 4:30 and 5:00. We are just staying at home with the kids. Don't bother making dinner, we got it. :-) I all ready told Harry he doesn't have to stay at home with us. I know he would much rather spend time with you. He's a good kid, Lizz. And I'm so happy you two are such great friends. I don't know what I would do if you weren't here!
Love,
Joy
I smiled down at the note. She was just too nice. That was when the kids came downstairs. They made themselves breakfast and ate it. Then they turned to me, as if wondering what they should do next. I laughed.
