"Dang! Where is everybody?" Benjamin thought as he walked through the quiet hallway. He had seen Jodie all day. She must still be mad that she didnt get to go to America. But nobody except him and Jenny could tell she was mad. Jodie always had a straight face, but he could read her like a book. He walked into the kitchen and found his mom drinking tea. "Hey mum."
She gave him a gently nod and took a slow sip from her burgundy cup. Benji walked over and kissed his mother on the cheek. He knew she was going through a rough time. Even though her and his dad have been divorced for the past three years, it still hurt her emotionally. Opening the door to the fridge, he pulled out a banana and peeled back the peel. He was so excited about leaving to Elissa's house, he didnt even think he could finish it.
Jenny slowly ran a brush though her hair. She was so glad Ben had gotten premission to let her come along to his friend's house. She really didnt want to be here all by herself all summer. After changing into a pair of shorts and a lavendar tank top, she went into her closet and took out a pair of white low top converse. She put on some socks, put on her shoes and she was out the door.
As she walked next to the front door, a gently knock was heard. "Benji! I think Blair is here!" she said. Moving her sandy blond hair behind her ears, she walked into the kitchen, just as Ben was walking out.
Hearing Jenny say Blair was here, he walked out of the kitchen. He took three strides to the front door and answered with glee. "Blair! Im so glad you are here." the fifteen year old said and dragged her inside. He saw that her brother had come with her. He didnt really care for him, but he was his girlfriend's brother after all. He had to be nice.
Jodie had just gotten out of the shower. Her hair was a curly mess. But it didnt faze the seventeen year old. She ran her hands through her light brown locks. Her hair barley reached her shoulders, but it was still a handful.
Walking into the kitchen, she saw that everybody was here and that her little brother's girlfriend had arrived. She was going to spend the summer with her friend Emily, but her and family went on a trip to the states. She was going to go with her, but her father had refused that she would go over seas. Jodie had been pretty mad, but she held her anger in.
At the last minute, Ben had offered to ask if she could come with him to his friend's Elissa's house. Seeing she would be able to spend time with her siblings, and it would get her out of the house, she agreed.
Finally seeing Jodie enter the room he turned to his mother. "Ok everybody is here. Now can we go? Please?" he said and gave his mother puppy dog eyes.
Joanna chuckled at her son. He was too excited about this. But that was one thing she loved about him. He valued his friends as much as his family. "Ok Benjamin. Here we go." she said and stood. She never apparated with so many people before, but she figured it wouldnt be as hard as doing three like she usually did.
Taking Benjamin and Jodie's hand, she waited for Blair to take her son's hand after grasping her brother's hand. On her left side, she caught that Jodie had already tooken Jenny's hand. She then concentrated on her location. With a small 'pop', they all appeared in the Molina's front yard.
"You all be good now. Jodie watch over your brother and sister. Keep them out of trouble. Also, dont forget to thank Mrs. Molina for letting you stay." she said. With another 'pop', Joanna disapparated.
Ben waved to his mother as she disappeared. He was here! He couldnt wait to introduce Blair to everybody. They had only started going out about three months. He hoped they liked her. Practicly running to the front door, he knocked enthusiasticly.
