Lucky Star ~A James Diamond Story~ [ON HOLD]

Page Three

So the next day, we go over across the street, and Mrs. Smith knocks on the door. After about a minute, Mrs. Diamond opens the door with a big smile on her face. 

"Well hello Veronica! How are you- and who might this be?" she asks looking down at me. 

"Well, this is my daughter Lily." she replies. 

"Well hello Lily!" Mrs. Diamond says. I am hiding behind Mrs. Smith's skirt because I was kind of shy, and didn't know Mrs. Diamond at all. 

I shyly say hi to her, and hid a little more, until Mrs. Smith picks me up in her arms. Mrs. Diamond then asks us to come in. Her house was about the same size as Mrs. Smith's, but decorated very differently. There were flower bouquets everywhere. The living room, the dining room, even the bathrooms had flower bouquets in them.

As we walked in the living room, I saw a little boy about my age. He must have been the boy that Mrs. Smith was talking about. He was very cute. He had short, brown hair, big hazel eyes, a little round face, and he had very cute smile. 

"Lily, this is James. He is six years old." Mrs. Diamond said to me. 

"Well Lily is four, so only a two year difference!"replied Mrs. Smith. 

"Oh, well isn't that wonderful!" Mrs. Diamond said, with a joyful voice. Mrs. Smith put me down next to James, for us to play, and goes over to talk to Mrs. Diamond for awhile.

James was sitting on the floor playing with some toy cars and trucks. He stopped what he was doing, and he looked at me. 

"Hi." He said smiling.

"Hi! I'm Lily." I said, smiling back.

"I'm James." He went back to playing, and I just watched him.

"Can I play with you?"

"Sure!" Then he handed me one of his toy trucks to play with. The truck was a bright red fire truck.

We played together for a long time, when Mrs. Smith says to me.

"It's time to go Lily."

"Reeeaaaalllllly??" James and I said at the same time.

"Yes. I'm sorry, but it's almost dinner time!"

"Okay..."

"Alright. Lets go!"

So we go home, and when we arrive inside, I smell something fabulous! It smelled SOO good! I ran into kitchen to see Susan cooking.

"Hi!" I say, as I go over and hug her leg.

"Oh well Hello Lily! How are you doing?"

"Good!"

"Excellent! Are you hungry?"

"Yes!"

"Good! Because I am making something I know you will love!"

"What is it??"

"It's a surprise!"

"Tell Me!!"

"Can't Lily. You will have to wait."

"How long?"

"10 minutes Angel."

"ohkay...bye"
