The Story of Her
By, FakeMcMonkey
Chapter 5 (Introduction)
On the ride home from Ruthys house, Lance was trying to retell the story on how he knocked on the door for her and some girl slammed the door in his faced, not on purpose, but he couldn't stop laughing.
"That was Nikie, Ruthys sister." Courtney explained. "She really isn't social, or at least that's what Ruthy said."
The drive home seemed longer than usual. It was 10 minutes to get back home, which meant that she could easily walk over to Ruthys.
They made it home around 9:37 p.m. Her grandmother was in the kitchen sweating over a pot cooking who knows what. Just one thing Courtney knew for sure was that it was going to be delicious.
"Welcome home guys, suppers about done, Courtney will you set the table?" Grandmother asked, almost pleading with her eyes, seemed she was over worked.
"Yes ma'am."
Courtney collected the plates, forks, spoons, butter knifes, and napkins before Lance offered his help in carrying. He carried the cups and half of the silverware, well Courtney carried the rest. They both set up the table in the way they were raised from living at their grandparents.
"Laura, why don't you carry the potatoes, Courtney the drinks, please." Grandmother politely called put orders, putting the chicken and great beans down on the table.
Courtney and Laura grabbed each item(s) and headed towards the table. Laura set the taters in front of Courtney's plate, well Courtney placed each drink in front of each of the plates.
"Lance, come join us." Laura called him over.
Dinner was amazing.
"Brush your teeth! Both of you!" Mother yelled loud enough for them to hear.
They both mumbled under their breaths and dragged their feet to the bathroom.
"Goodnight, Courtney." Lance whispered covering himself with his blanket.
"Goodnight, Lance." She whispered back, also covering herself.
