Second Chance //
Chapter 13
I was at the playground with Rose, Lily, and Brett. Rose and Lily wanted to go to the playground, so Brett and I had to watch them. We were sitting at a bench, watching Rose and Lily play. I glanced at Brett, seeing him smile while watching Lily play with Rose. That made me smile too, seeing Rose really happy and having fun.
This morning, when I was on my laptop, I received an email from my dad. This is what he wrote to me:
Hi Melissa! How are you? I'm sorry that I can't make it for Thanksgiving but I'll see you at Christmas! Have a fun time at the mountains!
"So, you have any plans for Thanksgiving?" Brett asked, interrupting my train of thoughts.
"Yeah, I'm going up to the mountains with a couple of friends, even though I have no idea who they are." I replied.
"No way, my family and I are going to the mountains too."
There was a few second pause.
"Wait... does that mean that..we both are going to the mountains together for Thanksgiving?"
"Do I hear something about Thanksgiving?" Rose asked as she and Lily walked over to us.
"Yeah, we were just talking about it."
"Can you believe it Rose? We both are going vacation together!" Lily screamed. Lily and Rose both started jumping up and down. I couldn't help it but laugh. They are just too cute.
"You girls knew about it too? Are we the only ones that didn't know about it?" Brett questioned.
"You and Melissa didn't know? You both are sure late." Lily giggled.
"Anyways, let's go home now. I'm hungry. Melissa, can we bake cookies?" Rose begged.
"Of course, sweetie. Lily can come over to bake cookies too if she wants."
"Yay!" Rose and Lily cheered.
"But since Thanksgiving break is tomorrow, we have to pack. Because we are leaving to go to the mountains tonight." Brett informed.
"Don't worry, me and Rose are already packed." I said.
"Aw man, I still gotta pack."
"Ha ha, I don't have to pack. Mommy is already packing for me." Lily sticked her tongue out at Brett.
"I see how it is, little sis." Brett lifted Lily up. Aww. He's so cute. Wait, did I just think that? Okay I'm gonna pretend I never thought of that.
"Let's go home now." Brett decided.
We went into his car and he drove us home.
Brett went back to his house to pack, meanwhile Lily came with us to bake some cookies. I texted the girls that we were baking cookies, and they imemediately came over, uninvited. A few minutes later, the guys (Seth, Brandon, Ryan, Nick and Timmy) arrived as well.
"What are you all doing here? I didn't invite you guys here." I recalled.
"You said that you were baking cookies. We had to come over! Your cookies are delicious! A bite of your delicious cookies at school isn't enough!" Stella protested.
"And we came over here because the girls told us that they were coming over here. We wanted to come over too, just to see our beautiful girlfriends." Seth said.
"Awww" the girls said in unison
"No, I thought we came here for Melissa's cookies?" Timmy blurted.
The guys hitted him in the head.
"Ow, what was that for?!" Timmy exclaimed.
"Okay anyways, did you bake those cookies yet?" Layla asked.
"No! We just got home!"
"I have a feeling that we are going to have to bake a lot of cookies..." Lauren said.
* * * * * *
After an hour, we were finished baking my "famous" and "delicious" cookies. We were all at my living room. The living room was of course crowded, with 13 people in the room.
"Mmm, these are so good!" Emma and Ryan said at the same time. No wonder why they're a couple.
"Hey, are you all having a party without me? I'm shocked and hurt." Brett sarcastically said as he entered the living room. He put his hand over his heart, pretending to be hurt. Rose and Lily giggled.
"No, I had no idea everybody was going to come over here." I replied.
"Hey, Melissa's cookies are the best cookies I ever tasted in my life." Nick admitted.
"How good can the cookies be?" Brett asked.
"Try them for yourself." I told him.
Brett snatched my cookie and took a bite.
"Hey!" I snapped.
"Not bad."
"Not bad?!" everyone said in unison.
"Okay, I guess you won't be having anymore of these babies." I said, waving my cookie at Brett's face.
"Okay that's it, give me that." Brett snatched other cookie and took a bite. Everybody was laughing.
