The New Daughter of the Family. (Sequel to An Angel's Voice.), chapter 3
Billie dropped Jakob and Joey off at Dylann's house (Jakob and Joey's friend. Billie didn't want to bring them to the reunion because they'd be bored) and happily drove his wife and daughter to the reunion.
"Can I have my iPod back now? I'm sick of sitting up here with you." Sara snapped at her dad. He simply smiled back.
"No. We only have three more hours left to go. You'll be fine."
"Augh. You're so annoying."
"I love you too, baby."
They finally reached her grandma's house where the reunion was taking place. They drove up the driveway to find a big croud of people there to meet them. Sara smiled widley and jumped out of the car. She ran to the crowd of people. In the very front of the crowd was a man. A short, thin man. Brown curly hair, slowly but surely turning grey. He looked to be in his early forties. Sara flung herself into his arms.
"Oh my GOD!" She released herself from his arms and stood out to admire him. "I can't believe it's you!"
"The one and only." He said, smiling. Billie and Adrienne got out of the car and stood behind Sara.
"Care to introduce us?" Billie asked.
"Oh, sorry." Sara said excitedly. "Dad, mom. This is Kevin."
"Kevin? But your cousin-"
"No, that Kevin's over there." She pointed to the other Kevin, who waved. "This is the other Kevin." She smiled back at the man.
"Yep. But you can call me Wiener." He said.
"Wiener?" Billie said, trying not to laugh. "Why that name?"
Wiener laughed. "It's ok, everyone laughs at it at first. It's a long story. I'll have my buddy tell you." He said, looking at Sara. She smiled back.
"Yeah, friends since the beginning, Weiner and I have been. We've been through it all." Sara said. "The good, bad and the ugly. But this next week is just gonna be party, party, party!"
"OOO I love parties!" They all turned to see Tre and Mike exiting Mike's old, beat up truck.
"Ah, and here comes the party animal himself." Sara said, laughing. Tre smiled proudly and puffed his chest out.
"Yup. I am THE partay animal." Sara rolled her eyes and looked into the crowd of people.
"And this...." She looked a little unsure. "Is... uh. Where should I start?" She and Wiener looked at each other and shrugged.
"Here, we'll start with the grandparents." He said. He picked two people out of the pile.
"Right. This is grandma and papa O' Connor." They waved. "And you know cousin Kevin, Tim, Rachel, Anna Marie, and Peter-" She stopped herself and looked at the ground. "Well, nevermind." She said quietly. She snapped out of it and looked back at the crowd.
"Well, we'll try to fit everyone in at the party tonight. Party at Paulie's tonight, everyone!" Wiener shouted. The whole crowd cheered.
"Who's Paulie?" Tre asked, scratching his head in confusion.
"He's not here right now." Wiener said. "He's probably at his house down the road. Preparing for the party."
"Yeah. You're right." Sara said. "Everyone." She announced, trying to get the crowd's attention. "This is my dad, Billie Joe, my mom, Adrienne, Tre, and Mike." They all waved and smiled.
"Well, let's get your bags into the house." Grandma O' Connor said sweetly. Everyone piled into the woman's giant house and they threw their bags in the empty guest bedrooms.
-Later that day-
"Dad. Come on, it's a harmless four wheeler. It's not going to kill you." Sara said jokingly.
"Well, watching you drive....." Kevin said.
"Shut up, Weiner." She said, smiling.
"Woah, nice Harley." Tre said, eyeing Kevin's little motorcycle.
"Little bike for a little guy." Sara muttered, laughing.
"Haha." Kevin said sarcastically. Sara looked at Billie Joe.
"Coming or not?" She asked him. He opened his mouth to say something and then decided not to.
"I must be crazy." He muffled, getting on the wheeler behind Sara.
"Can I have my iPod back now? I'm sick of sitting up here with you." Sara snapped at her dad. He simply smiled back.
"No. We only have three more hours left to go. You'll be fine."
