ok, so I know a few of you wanted to hear some more of my book and I thought I'd post some recent stuff to satisfy those that wanted to know more.
Hopefully you all remember the characters from my book. If not, refer to the blog post I did on my book. It's titled "More suff from/about my book" You'll know it when you see it. :)
Ok, so there's this one scene where Haylie's really sick, and her sister is really worried about her. So, Hilary realizes Haylie has a fever and says this:
"Oh my gosh, Haylie, your head feels like you just took it out of a volcano!"
and Haylie replies,
"Maybe that's why it hurts so much..."
And Hilary continues
"Yeah, ya think?" (and she says it in this nasty tone...)
I thought that was kinda funny... Sorry if it bored some of you. Her's something with more drama...
the scene starts off with Aaron (who's now 3 1/2) worried about his sister, Kristen (one of the triplets, who are now almost 13 months old) It takes place EARLY in the morning... (so you know, it's in early August, the hottest time of the summer) It's a typical scene that turns into a "I wanna make fun of you" thing.
(this is exactly as I have it written in my book)
"Martin, get up!" Sandy shakes Martin's shoulder.
Martin wakes up and is concernedwhy Sandy woke him up. "What? It's... 3:30 in the morning! What?"
"Aaron told me Kristen's not in the bedroom."
"I didn't even see her in the house." Aaron mentions.
"Kristen's... missing?"Martin asks.
"I guess so. I didn't see her."
"Oh, great."
"Um, honey, you're not leaving this room in what you're wearing..." Sandy says, grabbing her husband by his shorts. "You're gonna wear more than your boxer shorts."
Aaron starts laughing, "Ha ha daddy!"
"Uh, baby, like you're any better!" Martin snaps, "You're in a halfshirt and shorts!" he pauses, "May I rephrase that? A sports bra, more like it... And those shorts are pretty short."
"Ugh... I know." she turns away for a second.
"Ha ha mommy! You got told off!" Aaron laughs.
"Quiet. At least I'm not showing off as bad as daddy is." Sandy smirks.
"Uh, if I wanted to, I could easily prove you're showing off more than me." Martin snaps.
"Yeah... right. How?"
"Look right down that top. It's just low enough so you can see just about everything. You're not that tiny up there, ya know." Martin says, attempting to look down Sandy's top.
"Oh, I swear, I could kill you right now," she sighs, "Well, uh, Martin, I'm not the guy wearing tight boxers. Shows ya off a little, ya know."
"I thought the concern was Kristen, not what you two are showing off..." Aaron interrupts.
"She started it!" Martin whines.
"So?"
All I had to say after writing that scene was "GO AARON!" oh, and so you all know, Kristen was roaming around the house looking for a stuffed animal... but, yeah, I had a lot of fun writing that scene. There's my favorite thing in it: MAKING FUN OF PEOPLE! well, it's only fun in my book, 'cause I hate making people upset in real life. (except my sister, but we won't go there.)
Anyway,I'll skim through my book real quick to see if there's anything else funny. Oh so you know, I used my color code in my book on here. But I changed a few of them when I got to my new notebook.
........................................ ohh, here's one I think you'll enjoy. You'll probably understand it most if you've got a sister close to your ageand you like to tease her once in a while, or if you're the one getting teased.
The scene is between Haylie and Hilary. The night before, Hilary met this guy that she thought was cute while she was out getting ice cream with Haylie, Jason, Sammy and Lizzie. (they're both a year and a half)
(as written)
The next morning, Haylie decided she'd have a little fun teasing her little sister.
"So, Hil, ya plan on marrying him, or what?" Haylie teases.
"What, who?" Hilary's confused.
"That guy you met last night. James?"
"Oh, him. No, I don't plan on that. Maybe we could go out or something. "I need to get to know him, ya know."
"Oh, no fair..."
"Haylie, cut it out!"
"What? What would I be doing to annoy you? Hmm? I never annoy you."
"Yeah, right." Hilary scoffs.
Haylie laughs, "Ha! What's that supposed to mean?"
"STOP! Haylie, CUT IT OUT!"
"Cut what out?"
"You're being annoying."
"Oh, am I? I didn't even realize..."
"Yeah, okay. GO AWAY!"
"Hey, I'm only kidding!"
I liked that one. It was fun.
Oh, there's one more "make fun of you" scene
it's a scene between Hilary, Haylie and Jason, and Jason is doing everything he can to make Hilary look bad and Haylie's beginning to get annoyed with it. I'll start you off at the good part... haylie and jason are the only ones talking, though, so you know.
(as written)
"Stop trying to make Hilary look bad. I can go and make your brother look bad, ya know." Haylie replies.
"Leave Timmy outta this."Jason whines.
"It's upsetting you, isn't it?"
"He's my twin, it's different."
"Not really. You didn't stick by your brother's side for 21 years. I was there for Hilary whenever she needed me there. Look if you have any intention of marrying me, you two better stop your fighting. And Jason, stop bad-mouthing her."
"Whatever."
"Don't 'whatever' me. You gotta learn to treat her... like family. 'Cause whether you like it or not, if you wanna marry me, you best treat her well, 'cause then she'll be your sister-in-law. I'm expecting you to accept my family."
"You hardly even know mine."
"I know your mom, dad, brother and aunt. There's really no-one else left, Jason. Maybe your cousins, but that's it."
"What I mean is you don't know what they're like."
"They live in Massachusetts, you dope!(*reminder* they live in California*) How easy would it be for me to get to know them well? And they never visit. My family does, and half of them live in Texas, some live in New York, and a few live, acuually very close by. My family's all over. Oh, and my cousin... who I haven't seen in like, 10 years, lives in... I think London, now. Anyway, that's not the point. Listen, you need to respect Hilary. She'll be your sister, too."
"Exactly. Older brothers always torture their younger sisters."
"Well, you could be a good big brother and not torture her."
"Why?"
"Cause I said so." Haylie smiles.
I thought that one was good. Well, that's all for today, but you'll get to hear more another time. I'll keep you posted!
