There and Back Again (A hobbit fanfic)

Chapter 1

This is the story of the time, when I was young and crazy, my best friends and I get transported to middle earth. It was a beautiful summer day in Florida. When there was a break from the rain, and my house was being invaded by my closest friends:

Arlian, 24, 5'5, Brown hair, brownish-gold eyes

Blake, 21, 5'10, Golden blonde hair, blue eyes

Kathryn, 22, 5'6, Blonde hair, blueish brown eyes

Tory, 22, 6'0, Brown hair, hazel eyes

Coy, 21, 6'2, brown gold hair, I don't know what color his are

Falcon, 22, 5'8 Black hair, brown eyes

I'm Macca, I am 21-years-old, 5'4, I have shoulder length brown hair, and brown eyes. I'm a HUGE fangirl of Marvel, The Hobbit / Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean, Doctor Who, Star Wars... You get the picture.

"Kathryn! What's up girl?" Arlian says answering the door for me. "Good! You?" she replies politely.

I am in the kitchen making dinner with Blake for all of us crazy people, Fried chicken and Mashed Potatoes.

"Tory! Get your butt in here!" I shout at the top of my lungs.

"Yes ma'am!"

He slowly walks into the kitchen. Handing him paper plates and plastic silverware I say "Here, go set the table on the porch please. Thank you!"

"The last batch of fried chicken is done." Blake says.

"OK. Arli? Can you let everyone know dinner is ready!"

"Got it." She replied from the family room.

"DINNER'S READY!!" She shouted at the top of her lungs.

"OK!" I heard in response.

My house is semi big, it has an open concept, so I can see everyone downstairs from the kitchen. My style is mid-century modern, with bright colours and a rustic feel at the same time (I watched too many house shows when I was a kid). I love it. My roommates are Arli and Blake. Kathryn would be living with us also, but she is married to Tory, so we don't want the married couple living with us. We love them, but no. Coy and Falcon live in their own houses elsewhere.

Blake and I take the food outside to the table and everyone gathers around. We say grace and dig in! We have these dinners on a pretty regular basis. We have been friends since middle school. We met at our homeschool group. Tory and Kathryn have loved each other since. Tory moved away at some point, but came back once he moved out of his parents house.

"Dinner was so good!" Tory said half an hour later.

"Yes! Thanks guys!" Coy responds.

"Beer anyone?" Arli offers.

"I'll take one!"

"Me two!"

"Sure!"

"Bring 'em out!"

Arli takes forever. We sit and chat for a while, slowly it's only Arli, Blake and Me.

We go about our friday as normal, our friends come over for dinner, leave, we clean up, watch tv till we all pass out.

"What to watch, what to watch..." Arli says trying to find something we haven't seen a million times.

"Agent's of S.H.I.E.L.D. marathon!" Blake suggests.

"Ooo! Yeah!"

"Nah. we've seen 'em all." Arli scrolls past it. We settle on The Hobbit, Unexpected Journey.
