I crawled to the exit door between the flipped chairs and under the table. My hair was sticking with frosting of different colors and I'm sure tastes as well.

The little gym was a mess of cake on the floor and knowing I started it, it kind of made me feel better.

I was almost safe when a leg in front of me stops me from continuing. I grimace recognizing those caqui militar pants and those black shoes. I slowly looked up with a sheepish, busted smile.

Shane looks down at me in stern confusion as he helps me up, not so nicely I may add.

"I'm done. We can go home now" I told him calmly ignoring the screams and groans of anger from behind me. Shane narrowed his eyes at me and grabbed my arm pulling me outside "Hey, careful. You don't want me angry again..." I warned him

"What happened in there?" He asked me ignoring my whining.

"We were just having a peaceful session" I told him with a shrug, he turned to face me and grabbed a strand of my sticky, light brown hair with blue and pink frosting and raised his eyebrows skeptically "Yes, that's peacefully. We're lucky it was just cupcakes and not chips or other solid food"

Shane stared at me "That happens all the time?" I gave a shrug, he sighed looking away "Get in the car" he told me walking to the driver's seat. I didn't waste more time and got inside.

Lulu's jaw opened as she looked at me covered of cupcake. "Was it Chad?" She asked me.

All the time, Chad was the one starting the food fight. So that's why she asked

"No..." I smirked "It wasn't Chad" I said as Shane drove out of the supermarket. "It was me"

Lulu shook her head "Impossible" she scold me. I chuckled.

I looked around at the familiar street and looked at Shane "You're taking them to eat?"

He didn't answer but that was enough answer.

"Welcome to Woody Woodchucks!"

I smiled as the fireflies scattered around the loud and messy place. My hair was now on a ponytail and I couldn't wait to return home and take a long shower.

The food place is in chaos, children screaming everywhere and parents running after them as if the children were in fire.

"And they say War is hell"

I chuckled in agreement grabbing Peter from his shoulder and putting him on the floor clasping my hand tightly on his little hand as to not lose him

~8~

I smile as the fireflies sing their song moving my head back and forth, smiling at Lulu over the review mirror.

My smile however faded away in concerned alarm when next to her on the seat next to her where one of my brothers is supposed to be is empty.

I hit Shane's arms repeatedly gaining his attention as he glances at me while driving in slight concern

"Peter" I tell him frightened while looking behind us to the empty seat. Shane looks behind as well noticing we were one less and his face morphs into panic and concern

He suddenly makes a U-turn startling the girls as he drives back to Woody Woodchucks for my brother
