Chapter eighty-two: "Penelope's Alarm"

I was leaning my chin on the back of my hand while my other hand was playing with the peas on my plate with my fork

"Angel stop playing with your food" Cloud said as he was cutting up his steak, I gave him a side glare before eyeing everyone on the table
Our siblings thought it would be a great idea to eat together at a fancy restaurant before we leave for the 2-week reunion

Benjamin was cutting his steak as if his life depended on it because his face was filled with pure determination, Mason saw him and decided to trade steaks because he managed to cut his steak into manageable bite-sized pieces. Not only this dinner was making me uncomfortable but the people in the restaurant has their curious eyes glued on us
More specifically the Marshall siblings since their faces are instantly recognizable from a magazine

My sisters were not even giving a single fuck at the attention because they have their attention set on the mouth-watering food that is on our table since we are a group of 14 people the restaurant owner managed to make do, and they were able to get 3 tables side by side so we can have a long table

The long table however took the entire side of the second floor of the restaurant which is another factor to why people are eyeing us from their table, I feel like if I was given a choice of being stared at by sheep's at night or being stared at by many people while eating I will choose the sheep

Noah became the generous brother and friend that he decided to be the one who will pay for all of our dinners tonight, while we stepped out of the restaurant I was not ready to see the person who was about to get in with her family

"Danny"

She smirked at me "Idiot Penelope, surprised to see you here" she whispered close to me

I chuckled lightly and put a strand of hair behind my ear because it fell off on my bun to my face "Glad to see you being treated as an in Sane person" I put a finger under my chin "What was that letter you put in my locker again? Hmm" I put up a fake smile to mock her cowardice

I snapped my fingers "I remember now! You called me a Slut!" I said loudly on purpose for everyone around us to hear
If she can pretend to be a boss ass bitch while being quiet let's see if she is still acting the same if we are loud, call this a coward move but I would like to call it Penelope's Alarm

Make it loud enough for your siblings and everyone to hear so she can be flustered and she won't act quickly like before you both were alone

Her face flushed to red from pent up anger and seeing her parents aren't around yet means she was trying to stay calm in front of Cloud who was staring at us for the past ten minutes, Brie's sharp ears heard what I said and she turned around to face us

She was about to enter Dustin's car when she heard it and she was 8 feet away from us

As expected of the gossip girl from our family

"What did you say?" She said threatening through gritted teeth

All of my sisters seemed to catch on to what is happening once they saw Danny, their eyes shifted to deadly serious and cold. The boys were astonished at the shift of their mood, they were left puzzled while looking at each other

"Yo, what is happening?" Liam asked all of his brothers and Cloud was the only one who understood what is about to happen

"I suggest you guys stand back" I warned them all before we simultaneously stepped backward to make room for my older sisters to step forward

Natalie has an indifferent face on, Ella was pissed, Brie looked like she is ready to roast Danny and Caramia is about to commit murder
With murder?

I nudge Adeline's side "I think we should pull out Caramia, I don't want her wearing bright orange for Christmas and New Year"

"Yeah, I think we should"

We nodded at each other before grabbing both of Caramia's arms and dragging her inside of Noah's car. Noah didn't mind our mentally deranged sister using his car as our place to hold Caramia down

Natalie being the older sister she is decided to talk first "Nice seeing you again Danny"

Danny rolled her eyes and crossed her arms "I see that your love life is still a fail, what a failure" she giggled at her own joke

Natalie looked at Noah "Noah, release Caramia"

He nodded and opened the door. Me, Wendy, and Adeline screamed "WAIT NO!"

But it was too late...like we have just released a rabid dog

The front of the restaurant became a freak bitch arena and Caramia was winning because she was pulling Danny's hair and was spinning her around her like a helicopter

Mason and Oliver were left with their jaws wide open and the words that came out of their mouth once Carmia was finished fighting with Danny is "Holy crap"

While they continued fighting, Cloud bought a bag of popcorn and chips at a convenience store nearby "Want some?" He gave me the chips and talked with his mouth full of popcorn

It took a while for the police to arrive since Danny's parents arrived late because their car was hit by another and they had an altercation with the owner in the parking lot, our parents were called to the police station where Danny and her parents are also

Just like Danny, her parents looked like they were also caught up in a fight with the owner of the car who hit them
Or is it the other way around?

But either way, her family looked like a mess. She was giving death glares when she had a chance because my other sisters and possibly some of the Marshall siblings are keeping their eye on her like a CCTV camera

"I should buy some medicine to treat Caramia's wounds" I whisper to Natalie before walking out of the police station, I looked up at the night sky
Why did this happen right before we leave for the reunion tomorrow?

Maybe my Penelope Alarm is too effective, I should apologize to Danny when we return because I'm sure she is gonna start a fight with me once we are left alone. It was so fucking cold tonight that not even my 3 layered jacket was enough to keep me warm

I blew at my hands together before rubbing them and shoving both into my winter coat pockets, the police station is just as hectic like we are in a supermarket. Many people were coming in and out of the doors

A mother is pinching her son's ear and was yelling in his ear that it is bad to steal a video game, two drunk guys were brought in by the police cause one of them puked at a guy, and they punched each other which resulted in one of the drunk guys to blackout for 15 minutes. In short, the night at the police station is wild

I could even see a girl wearing cat ears and was wearing a box as a clothing
Must've been arrested for public nudity

She was meowing and hissing at the police officer who was putting handcuffs on her and was pushing her to get into the station

"Hey wait for me!" I heard someone tell behind me and I twisted my head around to see Mason running after me, he was catching his breath once he was close enough "I wanna join, I don't like the atmosphere in the station" he shivered and put on a face with disgust

"There was even a guy who was stoned and was crossdressed saying he was a virgin queen" he almost barfed at the thought and I held my laughter

"I'm gonna buy medicine wanna come?"

He nodded eagerly "Anywhere but here" he exclaimed before shoving me so we can leave the area of the police station

There was finally a bit of silence because the station has a lot of people either yelling or crying while being drunk while hitting an officer with a bag or a slipper at hand
I surely respect those police officers, their patience is impeccable because if I were them I would've just locked them up in a padded room
