Be My Shelter (Book II)

Chapter 30

"Kay, so I just got a text from Ethan. He just met up with mom and dad, and they're all hungry." Nolan informed me.

I stood up and stretched, "I am too. Where are they going for food?"

"The Moose Lodge."

"Is it good?" I asked.

Nolan nodded. "It's pretty fantastic."

My stomach grumbled loudly and I looked around awkwardly. "Let's go!"

"Someone's hungry. That, or there's a thunderstorm approaching." Nolan smirked.

"Shuddup." I mumbled. "Let's just go."

"That moose needs to die." I grumbled, glaring at the electronic moose head on the walls.

"Bray's enjoying it." Mom observed, nodding towards Brayden. He was giggling and babbling nonsense.

"It's still annoying." I said. There were two moose heads that were singing. There was also a full sized moose in the middle, which, no doubt would start singing in a few minutes.

"Relax, Reg. It's supposed to be fun!" Nolan said brightly.

"It's annoying, that's what it is." I said as I munched on my French fries.

"I'm gonna have to agree with Regan." Ethan grimaced. "I'm currently plotting their demise." He grumbled, glaring at the electronic animals.

"Me too!" I said.

"High five!" He grinned, leaning across the table.

"You two are so weird. I actually think it's kind of cute." Savanna smiled.

"She's a preschool teacher, ignore her." Ethan smirked.

"Oh shut up, doofus." She replied, shoving him.

He gasped in fake horror. "Why Miss Savanna! Doofus is a naughty word."

"See what I have to put up with?!" She exclaimed, smiling slightly.

"I apologize, dear. We may have dropped him on his head as a baby." Mom said, shaking her head.

"Regan! Ethan and Savanna are gonna take me on a roller coaster!" Izzy exclaimed.

"A roller coaster? Are you sure?"

"She really wants to go on Riddler's Revenge." Ethan said.

"Is she tall enough?" I asked worriedly.

"We measured. She's fine."

"I don't know..."

"She's already been on Batman." Savanna said, placing a hand on my arm.

"And you like them?" I asked in shock, looking at my younger sister.

"Yeah! They're so fun! Come with me, Regan" She said, clasping her hands together.

"I don't like roller coasters." I said, shaking my head.

"Please? Please? Please? Please?" She asked, looking at me with puppy dog eyes.

I sighed in defeat. "Fine." She knew my weakness.

"Are you sure, Reg?" Nolan asked worriedly.

"I'm a sucker for her puppy dog eyes." I sighed.

"Hey, Izzy, I can go with you."

"I want Regan." She replied stubbornly.

"Alright. I'll be waiting with a bottle of water." Nolan told me, placing a kiss on the top of my head.

*

"How was it?" Nolan asked when I managed to walk out of the roller coaster, into daylight.

"Never again." I muttered.

"Are you feeling okay?" He asked and I shook my head and he led me to a trashcan where I emptied my stomach. "Better?" He asked when I was done.

"Yeah, thanks." I said, taking the water bottle from him.

Not much to say. Sorry it's short, but I'm in a TERRIBLE mood.
