Wet grass.

Heh, okay so I finished blankets yesterday afternoon as well, its not exactly a long read. It was…..wonderful.

Last night, we were all in the living room hanging out. Mom had jut opened her last birthday gift (Her birthday was last week for cripes sake) and I was laying upside down on an automon (sp?) making Nile and Sophia paper airplanes. All of a sudden I feel this rush of energy through my body….its time for a Studer spaz. So I put my hands on the ground, and flipped my body off the chair. I scan the room for an accomplice. Parental units? Most assuredly no, Erik? Naw…hes using a computer game and I just don’t know if hes got the right stuff. And then I spot him. Nile. Hes messing around with dinosaurs in the entry way. I go over to him, and whisper in his ear “Nile, lets go run around the house.” He looks up at me and grins. We slowly stand, look at each other and dash barefoot out into the night. We’re laughing as we slam the door, but apparently we weren’t fast enough. She had spotted us. She being one of the most dangerous forces in the house….she was…Sohpia. Nile and I are dashing down the front walk and onto the driveway, and that when we hear her. She had opend the door, and was coming after us yelping “Hey guys, wait for me! Wait guys! Nile looks at me and yells “Camille, shes after us!” PANIC. Think Camille, think. “Nile, the deck!” So we run halong the side walk and dash up the deck stairs, we can hear her little feet on the sidewalk now. I grab th handle of the French doors and we get inside. We look at each other in relief, gasping for breath. But it wasn’t over. Just then, Emily and Erik come out of the dining room and ask “Hey guys, what are you doing?” I look at Nile and he grabs my hand and screams “Camille….RUN!” We dash past them through the kitchen and go back out the front door. This time, we turn laft and go around the other side of the house. We’re doing okay, the grass is cold and our barefeet slip because its so wet but its completely wonderful. We run back up to the deck, thinking we’re safe, but they were waiting for us there. Emily and…oh no…not her! Sohpia! Ha! So we decide that theres only one last hope, we let Emily join our forces and I dash off for the trampoline. Nile and Emily follow me, and we all climb on and we all spring, leap, twist and flip together safely. It was heaven, completely dark outside except for the moon, and the air so soft and cool. We laughed and chased each other, and were safe for at least a good two minutes until she came. Yes Sophia. “She clmbs up using the little step stoll that is there just for her, and says “Hey guys, what are you doing?” We all groan and say “Nothing Soph.”

In the end, all ended well. We proceeded to jump in the night for quite a while longer, and then it was time to go inside. Our barefeet touched the cold wet grass again and I turned around to get Sophia. She hopped on my back and wrapped her little arms around my neck “Camille, that was fun. I liked that Camille. I was afraid you girls and Nile would leave me…but you didn’t. I like you Camille.”
