Next thing I know it was Saturday, 6:30 PM to be exact and I walked up the steps dreading to even be here, my stomach was in knots and my palms were sweating. I'm just babysitting I said to myself. I lightly knocked on the red door with a reef on it and stepped back, waiting patiently for whoever was going to open it, I crossed my fingers hoping it wasn't Ashton.

I heard footsteps come to the door and it swung open, revealing a nice young looking lady with blonde hair and bright blue eyes.

"Ah! You must be Daisy! I'm Ms. Anne Irwin." She smiled and shook my hand, "Your mother has told me so much about you, look how gorgeous you are." She said sweetly, "Come in, Come in!"

"Yes ma'am." I smiled, walking into the homey house and looked around, it smelled like spaghetti and candles, which was very pleasing.

"Kids come here!" Ms Anne yelled up the stairs, I heard light footsteps leading to the top of the stairs and two kids came running down the stairs with huge grins on their faces.

"Babysitter!" A little blonde boy with bright blue eyes giggles and hugged my waist. I patted his head and laughed at his actions.

"Harry let go of her," A brunette girl said, grabbing the boy, making him let go of me.

"Aw darn Lauren stop, I like new people." He stuck his lip out. "You're such a meanie."

I giggled at their antics and turned back to Ms. Anne, "Is there anything special that they need tonight, do I need to cook anything?" I said to her.

"I have a few frozen pizzas, you can stick like two in the oven. Ashton likes sausage so I would put a sausage one in there for just him, the kids like cheese." She smiled.

Ashton.

I shook my thoughts away at the name and nodded at her politely, "Yes ma'am," I said.

"Please, call me Anne." She winked and turned towards the kids, "Alright you two, you better behave for Ms. Daisy we clear?"

Both of the kids nodded and ran into another room, The blonde boy that's name was Harry poked the brunette girl, Lauren, in the shoulder and sprinted off yelling a "You're it!".

"Alrighty well I'm off!" Mrs Anne said patting me on the shoulder, "Make sure the kids are in bed by 8:30 and that Harry doesn't eat any suga-"

She was interrupted by loud banging and clashing, the sounds drums make. I knew in an instant that it was Ashton, but he plays drums?

"Ah there goes Ash again with those drums, just try to ignore them, that's what I usually do." She sighed. "Even if I'm reading I have to ignore them, don't want to disturb something he loves so much you know?" She looks at her watch and gasps, "Oh my goodness I'm going to be late!" She waves and rushes out the door, "Thanks again Daisy, you're the best!"

I see her go into her car and start it up, leaving the driveway behind and sped off the other direction. I closed the front door and smiled, looking for wherever the kids were.

I heard them in the other room laughing and yelling at each other, It sounded like they were playing Mario Kart.

"Stop hitting me with that stupid banana!" Harry screamed.

"I'm such a boss at this game Harry, Just admit it!" Lauren yelled back.

I let them continue playing and went to the kitchen to make dinner like Anne ordered me to, I opened the freezer to find 5 boxes of frozen pizza.

These kids sure like their pizza.

I picked out the cheese and the sausage one that Anne said and preheated the oven, I slid out the frozen pizzas from the box and pulled out my phone while I waited for the oven to warm up.
