Party at 111 Howard - Part 5
Mar. 9th, 2022 08:39 pmIn fact, Quinn wasn't far away. “Oh!” she said when she realised when she saw the house up the street.
“What?” Sandi asked in response.
Quinn shook her head. She would deal with it. “Nevermind.”
Sandi gave a dubious expression. Quinn knew she was thinking how to turn the situation to her advantage.
Stacy noticed the strange lawn ornament as she walked up to the front door, along with the rather long grass. 'Why haven't they mowed?' she wondered as she knocked on the door.
The door was opened by Mack. “Quinn?”
“Hi Mack!” Quinn said.
“Your sister is here.”
“Cousin.”
“I'm rather sure she's your sister.”
“Daria isn't, but like, of course she's here! It's Jane's place.”
“You've been here before?” Mack asked in a curious tone.
“Yes,” Quinn admitted.
“I think Quinn's here,” Jamie said after he'd returned to the kitchen a second time.
“Are you sure?” Jeffy asked.
“I heard her,” Jamie responded. He left the kitchen.
Jeffy followed him.
“Wait!” Brittany cried out.
“What happened?” Joey asked as he come back into the kitchen.
“Never mind!” Brittany said, as she handed more plates containing condiments to Joey.
Quinn saw Jamie and Jeffy approaching. “Hi, guys,” she said.
“Aren't you helping Brittany?” Mack asked.
“Um, yes!”Jamie said in annoyance. He went back to the kitchen.
“We'll catch up later,” Jeffy said before following his friend.
“The party is out back,” Mack said.
“Outdoors?” Sandi asked.
“Is that a problem?” Mack asked.
“Not really,” Quinn said, ignoring Sandi's annoyed expression.
Daria saw Quinn and her friends come out into the yard. “Of course.”
“Quinn?” Jane asked.
“Yes,” Daria admitted.
“Hopefully she won't cause too much trouble,” Jane said. “I'd keep an eye on Sandi though.”
“Oh, I will be!”
“Let's see, mostly sophomores so far,” Quinn said. “Including my foster cousin,” she added with a giggle.
“More freshman may arrive later,” Sandi said.
“Maybeee.”
Joey saw Quinn and the others talking near the Gazebo as he brought out more snacks. However, he knew Brittany was right behind him so he waited until he put the snacks on the table before turning towards them. “Hi, Quinn!”
“Hi, Joey!” Quinn responded.
“Wait!” Came Brittany's voice. “One more thing, Joey!”
“Coming,” Joey said with annoyance.
Charles knocked on the door. Mack opened it. “Upchuck?” Mack asked.
“You think I wouldn't come?” Charles asked.
“That it would be too good to be true?”
“Feisty!”
“Come in,” Mack said in a resigned tone.
Andrea looked down the stairs and saw Mack let Upchuck inside. She saw red. Why did he have to come! 'I'll have to come up with some sort of humiliating prank!' Maybe some of Jane's art supplies?
Jane saw Mack come out of the house. “I thought I'd let you know, that Upchuck's here,” he said.
“I can handle him,” Jane said with a shrug.
“Are you sure?”
“Of course.”
“But can Daria?” Mack wondered.
Brittany looked over the table. There was plenty of food. Enough for three times the number of people present. She was sure more people would arrive.
Robert Koreleski knocked on the door of the house. Angie opened it. “Good Evening Robert,” the latter said, knowing the former's perchant for politeness.
“So this is the place, Ma'am?”
“It is,” Angie answered. “Although I must warn you. Some of the band members are eccentric.”
“Cool, Ma'am.”
“Do you know if anyone else is coming.”
“A few, Ma'am.”
“Who?”
“More of my team mates,” Robert answered. “And Ted, Jenna and Koichei..”
“I see,” Angie said.
“What?” Sandi asked in response.
Quinn shook her head. She would deal with it. “Nevermind.”
Sandi gave a dubious expression. Quinn knew she was thinking how to turn the situation to her advantage.
