"So, were they sweet?" Jade gushed, holding out a plate for Lysandra to take.

It was after an hour or so after Laurent had left and Lysandra was left by herself to push the raging fire within her down for the moment and compose herself to face her family.

"They were pretty nice," Lysandra nodded, more to herself and then scowled as she remembered a particular imagery of the night unfold in front of her eyes. "Except for one guy who was a total scoundrel."

"I sense something interesting," William added, wiggling his eyebrows at her while Jade slapped the back of his head.

"Interesting, my ass," Lysandra remarked, wincing when Jade gave her a death glare for cussing. "He put his hands all over me and I taught him a lesson."

"Where was your Laurent all this time?" Adrianna laughed as Jade gasped. "Finally realised how utterly boring you were and ran to some other bimbo?"

"Shut up," Lysandra rolled her eyes, turning back to Jade and William. "Putting Laurent aside for the time being, I can assure you that I can take care of myself."

"What did you do, Lee?" Jade inquired, narrowing her eyes at the hazel-eyed teen twiddling her thumbs nervously.

"I kicked him in the balls."

Nobody had heard her except William, who burst out laughing, slapping his hands against his knees. When Jade demanded for an explanation, Lysandra repeated her sentence again, making her voice a little louder.

"Oh, my God!" Adrianna snickered. "I never would've seen myself saying this but, Lyss, you are such a rockstar."

"That is so not acceptable! You could've dealt with him in a subtle manner, Lysandra. His whole family was there for God's sake!" Jade scolded before Lysandra assured her that nobody had seen them or paid the least bit of attention to the whole fiasco.

"Even so, violent behaviour is not okay," Jade pointed out as William chuckled and wrapped his arms around her in a light embrace.

"Leave her be, Jay. Let the kid have some fun and let her learn how to handle douchebags as such while she's at it," he said.

Adrianna sent Lysandra an appreciative glance, surprising her and skipped out of the room hollering something about having an early class at school. Just as her voice died down, Jeremy came barreling into the room, holding a Nerf gun in his hands. His brown hair was a tousled mess resting atop his head and his clothes were a pair of crumpled and mismatched pajamas. At his arrival, Jade smacked her head and rushed up to him, combing his hair with her bare hands and lifting him up onto the counter.

"Why are you not ready yet, young man?"

"Mama, I have a fever," he uttered, turning his head to wink at his father and averted his attention back to his mother again.
