The next day I woke up early. I wanted to make sure I looked perfect! I took a long shower and then blew my hair dry and curled it. Then I applied my make-up and got dressed. I went downstairs to see maids running around, cleaning and a staff of cooks preparing food and then went into Aunt Kim's office. She was just finishing up throwing a bunch of papers into her desk.
"Hello dear. Dont you look cute!"
I went into the kitchen, grabbed an apple and tried to decide if I should change my outfit. Then the doorbell rang and I froze. Now or never I guess. I walked up to the front enterance just as Aunt Kim was opening the door. In came a flood of people. They all first hugged my aunt kim and then came over to me. First were my grandparents. My grandma had tears in her eyes. 
"Oh, my grand baby!" She said hugging me tight. And then my granddad came over and hugged me as well but didn't say anything. Next were my aunt and uncle and their spouses just said hi. They all said how I looked like my father and how it was nice to see me. I had 6 cousins who were here too. My aunt had 4, Eric who is a year older than me , Brian who is my age,and Taryn and Merideth who are 14. Then my uncle had Madeline who is also my age and Carter who was 12.  After I was introduced to them we went out to the back patio. My uncle and aunts husband went right to the grill while Aunt Kim, my aunt and my uncles wife went to sit at the table under the shade of the umbrella.
Eric, Madeline and Brian were standing around talking and sometimes I noticed them looking up at me, while Carter, Taryn and Merideth swam in the pool. I really wanted Collin right now and was about to go to the guest house to get him when Aunt Kim took my arm and led me over to Madeline.
"Hi Aunt Kimberly!" Madeline said with a big smile.
"Hello, so I know that it may be a little awkward because you guy have never met but could you include Jennifer in your conversation?"
"Of course!!" Madeline said a little to peppy before turning to me. 
"Hey Jennifer! I'm Madeline but you can totally call me Maddy, and this is Eric and Brian." She had a hug smile on her face as she spoke, which almost sounded like a tune less chat that cheerleaders would do. Aunt Kim smiled and walked away. I looked at my three cousins. Maddy was blonde with sea green eyes. She was short and thin as a stick. She was just one of those girls who you could tell was a cheerleader. She was wearing a bit too much make-up, a crop top that showed off her belly bottom piercing and shorts that, untill now, I thought were just a bathingsuit because they were so small.  It was almost too obvious that she had been putting on a big act when Aunt Kim had been her, it was evident when he smile faded into a disgusted look. Eric and Brian were brothers but you would never guess by just one look. Eric looked like a total jock, tall and muscular. His hair was buzzed cut and his muscle shirt showed off his  bisepts everytime he moved. Brian on the other hand was kinda short with ginger like hair. He was stick thin and according to his tee-shirt he was on the track team. 
"So like, why are you here?" Maddy asked in a snotty tone.
"My parents wanted me to get away from Maine for a little bit." I knew I was kinda lying but with this b*tch I couldn't care less.
"Oh so your from Maine?" Brian slipped in and I nodded.
"Eww, Maine's so boring. Isn't everyone there a fisherman? Besides, everyone knows Texas is the place to be, the only thing Maine is good for is getting me my lobster."
"Saying Maine is full of fisherman is like saying Texas is full of cowboys dumb @ss." I snapped at her. 
"Whatever."
