We ate dinner in silence. Well, Olly and I were the only quiet ones. Olly's father had come home, with his brother and his children. There were four of them, all screaming at eachother. The three girls were triplets I think. They looked about nine years old. The boy looked maybe eleven. They all had red hair and brown eyes. The boy had freckles, along with the father. Olly's other brother, Jared, was visiting from college. He decided he wanted to have his rabbit at the table. The rabbit was currently sitting on my foot. Olly's mother was talking to Greg and scolding Jared because he didn't remove his shoes before coming in the house. Olly's father and uncle were laughing obnoxiously about some story the uncle was telling.
We were eating "American", as Jared called it, which consisted of macaroni, baked beans, and the BEST garlic knots I had ever eaten.
It was semi-normal until one of the triplets decided to take a spoonful of beans, rub it all over a garlic knot, and crush it on to one of her sisters. The sister tried splash her water on her, but it hit the boy. The boy through a spoon at Jared, and Jared threw it the third sister. Now the screaming had doubled in noise.
Greg, Olly, and I just decided to leave at this point.
We just stood up and left to Olly's bedroom.
Greg sat on her bed, I sat in her swivel chair, and Olly walked over to Julian's cage, and held her finger out. Julian flew down from a blue perch and sat on her finger. Olly shut the cage door. Julian inched his way up Olly's arm and stopped himself on her shoulder. Olly sat on the floor.
"So... what's the school situation?" Greg asked.
"I never thought about that. Everyone at that school is a prick, except this one kid Carmen..." I trailed off.
"aW DOES SHAY-SHAY HAVE A CRUUUSH??" Olly teased.
I stared at her.
"I'm gonna give you a sec."
She sat there for a moment, then slapped her forehead and started laughing hysterically. Julian flew across the room and landed on Greg's knee.
"Ha.. heheh... but really. What is gonna happen?" Olly said, finally gaining control of themself.
I thought.
"What if... I left West Bay HS... and did... online school!" I said, a grin spreading across my face.
Olly looked at me as if I were a small miracle. Greg smiled at Olly.
"Greg, can you go call the school?"
"I'm on it."
He left and shut the door.
Fun, I don't have to leave the house anymore.
Yes!!!
