I woke up and went into the kitchen to make a cup of coffee. I had made sure I was wearing appropriate clothing before leaving my room. “Well look who’s finally up.” Said Lloyd walking into the kitchen.

“Oh hey.” I said pouring my coffee while trying to keep my eyes open. Toby walked into the kitchen dressed for the day.

“Good morning.” He said as he wrapped his arms around me, giving me a kiss on the forehead.

“Morning.” I replied.

“So I’m guessing you guys enjoyed each other’s company yesterday. You went back into the bedroom to put on clothes and ended up never coming back out.” Lloyd said with a smile on his face. He knew exactly why we didn’t come back out of the bedroom. Lloyd walked back into the front room.

“Hey do you want to go for a walk today?” Toby asked.

“Sure.” Just then we heard guns going of outside. I walked over to the back door. Nick, Johnny, Lloyd and Danny, not knowing what was going on, were a little disturbed.

“What the hell. Do people have permission to hunt on your property?” Asked Nick.

“No they don’t and I’ve told them not to plenty of times!” I ran out yelling at Masky and Hoodie. “YOU FUCKING IDIOTS! I HAVE COMPANY! GET IN HERE!” Masky and Hoodie walked up onto the back porch putting away their guns. “How many fucking times do I have to tell you to not shoot those things in my yard? Toby take the guns away from those two idiots.” I demanded.

“Wait you know them?” Johnny asked

“Yeah they used to work for my father.” I said walking back into the kitchen.

“Oh my God!” Masky said excited. “Annabell, you want to tell me why the fuck my favorite band is sitting on your couch in your living room!” Masky took off his mask and began to introduce himself to them. “Hi, I’m Tim!”

“Masky leave them alone.” Toby said walking into the kitchen to put the guns on top of the fridge.

“Make me.” Masky teased. Toby ran out the back door hot on Masky’s tale.

“Hi, I’m Bryan.” Hoodie said taking off his mask and hoodie. “Ignore Tim, he’s a complete idiot. I’m the smarter one.” He said giving advice to the band.

“Nice to meet you Bryan.” They all said one by one as they also introduced themselves.

“So Annabell, are you making plans with them or something?”

“What are you talking about?”

“Why is a big time band in your living room?”

“Oh they’re just friends visiting.” I explained.

“You know we could play at the wedding if you wanted.” Nick offered.

“Are you serious? That would be lovely. I could scratch off trying to find a band of some sort to play at the wedding.” I said in relief. Why hadn’t I thought about that sooner?

Toby and Masky walked back in, Masky with a bloody nose, and Toby walked into the kitchen and got a cup of coffee as Masky sat down on the couch next to Lloyd.
