I'm forced to fake a smile, a laugh every day of my life -- Summer 2017

I could not believe what I was hearing.  what on earth was going to happen?  I sighed.  "Alright... I think this could get interesting," I said honestly.

I chuckled.  "Let's all finish up breakfast and start getting around," I said to all the kids.  "Daphne, I'll take a closer look at your wrist and see if it's something I can do or if we need to go to Aunt Chloe or Aunt Lily."

I nodded and helped clear up the table.  I stretched before grabbing any of hte plates, though.  I felt my boxers rise out of my pajama pants and realized that I was still shirtless.  I smirked slightly, not that Daphne or Dona were looking, but at least I still looked good.  I grabbed some of the plates and took them to the sink with the help of Dona and Ryan.  Stan went with Daphne and Dean to help her wrist.

I followed Mr. Black to the other room and held out my wrist gingerly while he looked at it.  He waved his wand and a bandage came out and wrapped around it.  "Do I need to go see one of the others?" I asked him.

Tommy and I got dressed and then we waited for everyone else in the living room.  "This is going to be better than what we were going to do on our own," I said to Tommy as we waited.

I got changed into a cute little summer dress with some simple flats.  I pulled my hair into a pony tail and went back to the living room where I saw tommy and Ryan.  "You two better not be trying to pull something while we're gone," I said to them, knowing how they were sometimes.

I did not bother to go get dressed until I knew that Daphne was alright.  "Does hse need to see Aunt Lily or Aunt Chloe?" I asked.

I shook my head at the two of them.  "No, you're going to be fine.  It seems like it was just a sprain.  If it doens't get better in a couple of days, I'll call in reinforcements," I said.  I figured that it would be better to have as few of people involved as possible.  Just to save Daphne from having to explain anything.  "Let's get around and we'll head out."

I watched as Daphne and Stan went to his room.  I nudged Ryan and smirked.  She was in pajamas... it was going to be hilarious to see her to ask Sedona for clothes -- if they were even the same size.  "Think Dona will be nice to her?" I asked my mate.

I went back to STan's room, but then I realized that I had nothing to wear.  I sighed.  "I'm going to see if anything of your sister's will fit... if she'll let me" I said to him, letting him know that I was leaving and he could dress.  I found Sedona's room and knocked on the door.  She opened it and moved aside, she knew I was going to be coming to borrow clothes.  "thanks, Dona" I said to her, because at school, we were not the best of friends or anything.

I sighed and looked at the clock.  "Are we about ready to go?  I'm getting impatient," I announced loud enough so that hopefully everyone would hear me.

I smiled at Daphne politely.  "Borrow whatever you want.  I'll try to keep the boys settled down so you can have some time to search for something your style," I said to her, leaving her alone in my room.  Something I never thought I would let happen, but she seemed to care for Stan and he liked her.  So I would behave.  I walked out and smacked Ryan upside th ehead.  "Cool it, RJ," I said to him, rolling my eyes.

I went into the other room where everyone was starting to gather.  "Thanks," I said, aiming it towards my sister, though I did not say her name or anything.  She knew.

I made it back into the living room and saw the boys and the girls all ready to go.  Everyone seemed to be alright.  I smiled at them.  "We'll take the Knight Bus," I said, chuckling at the girls' groans and the boys' smirks.  "Let's get outside, kids... everyone have purses...?" I looked at Dona and Daphne when I said that as I ushered the five of them out the front door.  This was going to be a disaster.

"You know, RJ, I think I forgot my purse," I joked, eliciting chuckles and an eye roll from Mr. Dean.  We went outside and, once it was flagged down by Ryan's dad, we boared the Knight bus.  I loved the craziness of the bus.  It was always entertaining.
