"Wake up Lucy!"Stacie says in Lucy's ear.

 

"Ok I'm up." Lucy responds.

 

"Time for breakfest! My parents already left and we need to get ready for 4 more kids remember."Stacie tells her.

 

"O, right I forgot. My bad."Lucy says as they sit down to eat."Yummy waffles! My favorite."

 

"That's why I made them just for you."Stacie says.

 

Then Stacie talks with a french accent."Why thank you Lucy."

 

"You'r Welcome."

 

10 minutes later when Stacie, Lucy, Mark, and Matthew(Matt) are done eating....

 

"Ding!Dong"

 

Stacie goes to get the door"I'll get the door. It must be James and Emily." she opens the door and some snow comes in as James Strugles to close the door."Burrrr! It's cold out there!"

 

"It sure is."James Says as his little sister Emily runs off to play." We could barely see out there.And there is already 2 feet of snow."

 

"Wow!I'ts only been snowing 3 hours." Stacie reacts.

 

Lucy walks over and starts to talk."Ok then see you at school James."

 

"What she said." Stacie tells James.

 

After James tries to get the door open." It's stuck."

 

"Let Me try."Stacie tries."Nope lets all try it must be frozen."All three people try."No! come on it still won't open."

 

 

 

 

 

 

Trapped

Lucy Runs around and starts to panic (she is claustrophobic) " O, no i have to get out! Its closing in on us!" she yanks at the door knob as hard as she can. "Pop!" the knob comes off the door and Lucy falls with the knob in her hands.

 

"Lucy!" Stacie annoyed and gives her a hand up." I will go get some duct tape and James can you check on the little Kids.

"Sure thing." James calls back. As Staie goes to get tape to fix up the door so snow can't get in James checks on the kids."Hey were are the others...O right they never came yet and probably not today."

 

"Why not?" Matt says in a sad voice.

 

"There is lots of snow outside and we can't get the door open'So just keep playing."

 

"Ok" matt replied and went back to playing.

 

James went to the sofa and sat down by Lucy and Stacie.James broke the akwardness" So what do we do now..." The room went black and the power shut down. " The power lines must be down let me find some flash lights and blankets." Stacie Said then ran off to find them.

 

"Go get the kids and I will help Stacie." James told Lucy.

 

Lucy went to find the kids feeling her way through the dark house." Ouch!" Lucy tripped into the kids that were terrified and looking for the others. "Kids?"

 

"Yes" Emily says in a shaky voice and hugs Luck tightly. And the boys huddle closer to.

 

"Its ok the power just went out Stacie and James are getting flash lights and blankets." Lets go to the living room and wait for them." Lucy tries to reasure them.

 

"Ok" Emily says not so shaky now that she knows whats going on. When the get to the sofa they sit down and huddles close for now it is starting to get cold.

 

Then Matt says "I see them!" and jumps up and helps them carry the things to the living room. And they squeeze in on thw sofa with the others. Stacie sets a lantern on the coffee table in front of them and James overs them with blankets.

 

"I bought some books to read to stay intertained and also some games to play on the coffee table." Stacie anounces.

 

"Yay!" Mark cries out.

 

Crushes

As everybody plays Monopoly the house starts to get colder and James wonders if they will survive this blizzard. He has had a crush on Stacie since the third grade what if they die before he can tell her how he feels. The prom was coming up so why not ask her to go with him.  So  gets up and goes to the kitchen. "Hey is anyone hungry I can make PB&J"

 

"ME!" everyone cries out in joy.

 

"Stacie can you help me?" James asks.

 

"Sure." she replies.

 

As they get in the kitchen James asks her about Prom "So who is your date for prom?"

 

"I don't have one yet." Stacie replies.

 

"I tought that such a beautiful lady like you would have millions of guys begging at her feet." He said kinda joking.

 

" I never said no one asked I've just been waiting for the right guy. Wait... you think i'm beautiful" Stacie says.

 

"Stacie your amazing inside and out."James tells Stacie.

 

"Well I feel the same about you. I have had a crush on you since seventh grade." She says.

 

"Will you be my date to the prom?" James asks.

 

"I would love too!" Stacie cries out in joy. she has been waiting for this moment for a long time.

 

James leans in for a kiss and Stacie kisses him right back. When they pull away Lucy say " Awwe such a cute couple."

 

"Thanks!" They say together then start to laugh and don't stop till the kids come in to see whats so funny " Whats so funny sis?" Matt asks.

 

"Nothing." James says and they get back to sandwhiches.

 

So they lives happily ever after.
