“Seriously, Puck?” I ask him with a nervous laugh. What makes him think that we started dating? I can see Kenza blushing out the corner of my eye.

“You guys asked me to guess,” He says laughing loudly. “But really what did you guys want to tell me?” He asks still laughing, a booming laugh.

“I got my license and a car today!” I say excitedly.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdYAO6FlaE
“Really? That’s great, dude!” He says, almost as excitedly as I did. “Does that mean you guys are coming today?”
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDtFhFPE3E
“Yep! We’re gunna pack as soon as we get off the phone then the three of us will be on our way!” Kenza answers him. The embarrassment about us dating completely forgotten.

“Alice is coming too?” He asks. Probably because he doesn’t see why we would bring her if she has school tomorrow.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHJZd7jOhr
“She doesn’t have school tomorrow so I’ll bring her back tomorrow night.” I quickly explain.

“Awesome! We’re almost all together again!” Puck exclaims.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCIv9QsyXB
“Yeah….now we just gotta find Aviana and Star.”I say sadly. Hopefully it won’t be hard to find them and then we could all be together.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbtXcqIf3R
“Yeah…”Puck starts and trails off. “I’m gunna go so you guys can pack and also Peter and Will are coming by to hang for a while.”
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QfK7h7wkE
“Alright. See ya soon!” I reply.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGW4nKyQT7r
“Bye Puck!” Says Kenza right before the call ends.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq68Cdo8SBR
I put my phone down on the floor beside me and look around my room before I get up to start packing. Without a word Kenza also gets up goes back to packing her pile of stuff on the bed.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQa2uAu8Vfq
I grab a bag out of my closet and just start throwing random clothes in it. After I finish that I go to the bathroom and pack all that I need from there.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13UmNsWEd5
Kenza had finished before me and went to make sure Alice got all she needed.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2D6QDbLuUB
We were packed and had everything loaded in the car before the hour was over.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzSAmuYxCF
Now we’re standing in the living with my parents talking about the rules and other stuff for while we’ll be gone. They were the basic rules plus some saying that we can’t go out past 11 and we must watch Alice.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPEgWfqPkQ
After we finished going over the rules we started to say our goodbyes.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbi2BRw1Gt
“Bye Mom, Dad.” I say, trying to hurry us out so we could be there soon. “Thank you for letting us go.” I add on the end.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XlzYu5PZf
“Bye son. Don’t forget to call us when you get there and every so often so we know you guys are okay.” Dad says. That was one of the rules: we had to call every so often and let them know what’s been going on.

“We put some money into an account for you guys to get a hotel room and for food and whatever else you need.” Mom adds on. “Here’s the card to the account. Please don’t just blow this money fast. We may have money but we don’t have an unlimited amount. So please, spend it considerably.”
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRBWIxvew1
“Thank you! You guys are amazing!” I hurriedly thank them. I was so happy that they were allowing us to go and giving us so much responsibility. It was amazing.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGa137vcPA
“Your welcome. And we love you!” Mom shouts as I walk out the door and climb into the driver's seat of my new truck.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjqqdHKwJ4
Neither Alice nor Kenza were in the truck yet, they were still saying their goodbyes. Everyone had now come outside into the front yard. I left my door open so I could hear what was said between my parents and Kenza.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hFOXPY7qi
Kenza was standing there awkwardly, not knowing what to do till Mom pulled her into a hug. The surprise was clear on Kenza’s face as she was pulled in, then she slowly wrapped her arms around Mom also.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSmzgXenCf
“I’m sorry for the way I was acting, sweetie.” Mom apologizes to her.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfE0l8NRY5d
“It’s o-”
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cMFYttLSr
“No it’s not.” Mom says, stopping Kenza from saying that it’s okay. “I had no right to act that way towards you. My son was doing the right thing and helping out his friend who was in need. I’m proud of him for that. Even though I was not happy at first. I understand why he did it though.”
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7RwvLL7Fb
Kenza was speechless for a few moments. She went to pull away from the hug but Mom leaned in and whispered something in her ear. I couldn’t hear what she said but whatever it was it made Kenza blush and nod.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaMqHfZkmV
Next Dad also hugged Kenza. Giving a simple apology and wishing her good luck to be living in a one room hotel with me for as long as we were staying.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nK0x94Z3z
While Dad was talking to Kenza Mom had pulled Alice into a tight hug and told her to behave and to listen to me. She also double checked that Alice had everything she would need before giving her a huge kiss, on the cheek goodbye.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYM7EOr9oU
Kenza came and got in next to me in the passenger seat and we watched Alice say bye to Dad. I closed my door so I could talk to Kenza without any of them over hearing.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWNllkLwbl
“So what did my mom whisper to you?” She immediately blushes and looks away from me.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsHyKL9VYK
“Nothing…”
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuUn6uSavh
“Oh come on. I know she said something and that’s why you’re blushing now. Just like you were when she said whatever she said to you.” Her blush got an even darker red.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoVuYN5NWM
“I don’t want to say it.” She mumbles to where I barely heard her.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PJxkjsjCA
“It can’t be that bad.” Can it? I can’t even think of anything my mom could say that could embarrass Kenza like this.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQ987FuZTR
“No. It’s not bad. Just embarrassing.” She’s still not looking at me.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhAB9i9bx1
“Just tell me. You know you can tell me anything.” I say, trying to persuade her into telling me.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgUxsC93xS
“But I don’t want to.” She pauses for a second. “And plus it involves you too.” It involves me? What? What is she getting at? What could have embarrassed her that involves me?
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIHGzobPeO
“Me?”
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCjN2Ef4tK
“Yes you, Luke.” She says looking up for a second to roll her eye then looks away again real quick.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kIbxfXWQl
“What could she possibly have sad to embarrass you that involves me?” I ask getting more confused the more this conversation goes on.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ldaBaj0ve
“Fine do you really want to know?” She says, finally giving in.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2RKMjtI37
“Yes! I’ve only been trying to get it out of you from the moment you got in the car.” I exclaim.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRWpt2MJPr
“Well she said-”
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwC68HCRDO6
“Hey Guys! Let’s go!” Alice yells opening the door and climbing in the back seat.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgUmaswSNl
“Yes let’s go!” Kenza says smirking at me, blush now gone. Alice just had to get in at that moment. She couldn’t have waited a few seconds longer? Now I have to wait till I can get Kenza alone again and who knows when that will be.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UdbnYwgNm
I made sure Alice was buckled up and then started to back out of the driveway. Mom and Dad stood on the front yard still, waving bye and Alice and Kenza were waving back. Kenza was still smirking at me.
768Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KpU9V9pxp
With that we were on our way to Puck. An hour or so away.
