The Next Day

Laura:(laying in bed)

Riker:(walks in) Sup little sis

Laura:(sits up) Oh hey Riker

Riker: Wanna come down with us to the pool?

Laura: Um.. sure I guess

Riker: Sweet, cya down there in a few (walks out)

Laura:(sits up and changes into a red bikini) (walks down to the pool) Hey guys

R4: Hey Laura

Laura:(sits at the edge of the pool dipping her feet in)

Riker & Rocky:(Swims up to her)

Laura: Where's Ross?

Rocky: Well we asked him but he said no

Laura: Oh. Why does Maia hate you guys?

Riker: Bc she thinks we're taking Ross away from her

Rocky: And the fact that while we were talking trash about Maia, she heard

Laura:(giggles)

Riker & Rocky:(smiles)

Laura: Why don't you tell Ross to break up with her? Or at least tell him why she's being mean to you guys

Riker: We just can't. 1) Ross doesn't believe us when we tell him about Maia being a bitch. Sometimes he will but then Maia would make an excuse, so there's no trying there

Rocky: 2) Maia makes Ross happy. No matter how much we want Ross to break her soulless heart we can't

Laura: That must suck

Riker:(nods) It does. I wish Julie was back

Laura: I'm sorry she's not with you right now

Rocky: Yeah. Ever since she passed away, Ross hasn't been the same

Laura:(nods) Yeah. Rydel told me about that

Riker: Well enough moping and let's have some fun

Rocky:(nods and pulls Laura in)

Laura: Ah! (pops up) Oh.. you guys are so gonna get it

Riker: Why do I have to get it? Rocky's the one who did it

Laura: Yeah but you didn't stop him (splahses them)

Riker & Rocky:(splashes back)

A Splash war comes on

In Ross's room

Ross:(in his room laying in his bed)

Stormie:(knocks) Ross, can I come in?

Ross: I guess so

Stormie:(walks in and sit's at his bed side) Why aren't you in the pool with your siblings?

Ross: Bc I don't want too. Sounds lame

Stormie: Well you should go. So you can get to know Laura more

Ross: Why? I don't even like her so why should I?

Stormie: How can you not like her? You don't even know her

Ross: Does it matter? Soon enough she'll die like Julie did...

Stormie:(sighs) Ross I know you miss Julie but you have to get over it. You have a new sister to hang out with

Ross: No! Why did you guys even adopt her? She's so fugly

Stormie: Ross enough! We do not say those rude things! Especially to family!!

Ross: That's the thing, she's not my family! She's just some random girl you adopted! She's not my sister!

Stormie: That's it! You're grounded for 2 weeks! What happened to the little Ross I know and love before!? Where is he?.. (walks out with his phone and other electronics)

Ross:(yells) That Ross is gone! (slams the door)

Laura:(walks out of her room with tears in her eyes) Maybe being here isn't the right thing (closes her door)

A few hours later
Downstairs

R4:(walking in the house talking)

Stormie: Where's Laura?

Rydel: She went upstairs like a few hours ago

Stormie:(gasps) Uh no

Riker: What's wrong mom?

Stormie: I think Laura heard Ross and I's conversation. Ross said some pretty bad things about Laura

Rydel: Oh no. I should talk to her

Stormie:(nods) Go but get dressed first

R4:(nods and goes upstairs)

A little while later
In Laura's room

Laura:(silently crying)

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Laura:(Sighs) Go away!

Ryland: Laura as your caring siblings we can't do that

Laura: I'm not your sister guys. I'm not a part of your family. Like Ross said, I'm just some random girl who your parents adopted

Rydel: Okay first of all you are apart of our family and second of all, we're coming in

R4:(walks in)

Laura:(sighs) Leave please

Rocky: We're not doing that

Riker: Don't listen to Ross, Laura. He's just being an ass

Laura: how can you say that to Ross? He's your little brother

Riker: I know but Ross isn't acting like my little brother. All he's doing is being a jerk. That's not the o\brother want

Laura:(sighs) I know but still. He's a jerk

Riker: We know but he's still shooken up about Julie's death

Ryland: Maia isn't helping what so ever

Rocky: Yeah. She's rude, bossy, obnoxious, stupid and slutty

Laura: You guys should do something

Rydel: We wish we could but apparently she makes him happy so there's nothing we can do

Rocky: Even though he's a jerk and all he's still our little brother

Laura: Well that isn't helping anything

Riker: Yeah but I know you'll make this all better in everyone's lives

Laura:(smiles) Thanks
