Luke’s POV

Previously:
“Then it’s settled, we will share my bed.”
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUfdqwHCTN
Now:
Now that we had thought out how we were going to share my room and relaxed for a little we were now unpacking the little that Kenza had brought here.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPElWBeV2F
Unpacking took a while, mostly because we were having fun and doing silly things with her stuff.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLNFP0ShSb
Almost as soon as we sat down after finishing unpacking Alice came into my room to tell us dinner was done.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡps5rAbVpHk
My family usually eat altogether at the table but I’m worried about that now that Kenza is here. I don’t want my parents to be mean to her or anything like that.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiJb4x3Bih
I walked towards the door, making sure Kenza was following me, to go downstairs. Her facial expressions show that she’s worried about going down there, I would be too if I was her. She’s already dealt with my parents bad side, she doesn’t need to see it again. I don’t know how she can handle all this so soon after everything that’s happened to her.

We slowly walked down the stairs and into the kitchen. Everyone was already sitting around the table dishing out food.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecXGiZbyT5
“Glad you could join us.” Mom says sarcastically. I ignore her and sit down next to Alice. Kenza sits on my other side and we start dishing out our own food.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpV3eQMxyOD
The dinner was silent and going pretty good but then my mom had to ruin it. “So Kenza, why did Luke bring you into our house again?” She says in a fake concerned voice.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhixxI4edzo
I glanced at Kenza out of the corner of my eye, she looks like she’s going to be sick, so I reach under the table and grab her hand to comfort her.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GytgrXmLY
“She had nowhere else to go and she’s one of my best friends.” I say, so that Kenza wouldn’t have to. I hoped that that would have ended all conversation but I was wrong.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4C7K6zrKa
“Well I better not end up with any grandkids running around here.” Mom snaps to us. I squeeze Kenza’s hand, hoping my parents aren’t bothering her too much. They were pissing me off. i don’t get why they can’t just leave us alone, I’m just helping her it’s not like she has any other place to go.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQhHbt9e53
“Mom! Were not even dating!”
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDU3i57xDJ
“That doesn’t mean anything. You could still get her pregnant if you’re not dating.”
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAH9XHUeQum
“Just stop Mom. We’re responsible and if you don’t remember when I was in the coma I lived on my own and even took care of Alice because you guys weren’t there. I know how to take care of myself. And you can just leave Kenza alone, she’s been through enough already she doesn't need you guys being rude to her too!” I snap at my parents. Kenza was now gripping my hand as tight as I was hers.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TtPoFhBdO
Nobody said anything after that so I stood up, grabbed my plate and pulled Kenza along with me, who grabbed her plate also.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9m4GgaPNa
When we got to the bottom of the stairs I turned around to say, “Please just leave us alone unless you guys are gunna be nice.” I say softly and then walk up the stairs, still holding Kenza’s hand.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuW3r2VGoE
As soon as we were in my room I instantly apologized for how my parents were acting. I can’t believe they are being so rude to her, they need to chill out.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIzjtcJEx1
“Luke you don’t need to apologize, I know you can’t control how your parents act.” She says back.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJ5ERQZBIk
“I know but..still. I can’t stand the way they treat you.” I say, pulling her into a hug.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKYdGTunIk
“It’s okay Luke.” She says, wrapping her arms around me.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdZQ5cE2yi
We stay in the warm comforting hug for a few minutes. I’m the one that pulled away first and then walk over to my bed.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWv4Zs50AIc
I wasn’t tired yet because of the nap we took earlier in the day, I was just coming to sit down.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZYJwKgC5K
“What do you wanna do?” Kenza asks still standing.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMbwEORvjw
“Well, we could watch TV or call Puck or something, I don’t know. Whatever you want is cool with me.”
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbYxTRqF6p
“Hmm, I guess TV sounds good.” She says and comes to sit on the bed.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiozGvhzOxS
I turn on the TV and we watch it for a while, laying in my bed. We watched a few episodes of Supernatural before we got bored and wanted to do something else.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOyBuPOteF
“Hey, we should go shopping for new clothes and all that.” Kenza says sitting up in bed, after thinking about what to do.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqV7gNGqK4N
“Okay, you stay up here and I’ll go talk to my parents and see if they’ll give me any money to get stuff.” I say as I walk out my room and down the stairs.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4G4tihubEe
I find them in the living room also watching TV. “I’m going shopping for clothes and stuff since I have none can I have some money to get some, please?” I ask them. I was trying to ask nice so they would actually give me some money instead of a straight up no.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxk5e876u5
It must have worked because I see Dad grab his wallet out of his pocket and hand me two $100 dollar bills. “Here, take your sister with you.”
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONO3MP5Wrh
“Thanks…” I trail off and he just waves his hand at me.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8aw3pXg2j
I take that as my cue to leave and hurry up the stairs to Alice’s room. I open her door and see her playing with some barbies and cars. “You want to go shopping with me and Kenza?” I ask when she notices me standing in her doorway.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0poph03ct5
“YES!” She squeals excitedly.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡok3h5OwWnq
“Okay get ready and meet us downstairs.” I say, then leave her room to go back to mine.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILppfdKZZz
“So..?” Kenza asks when I step into my room.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLrdRT6Cqy
“I got 200 from them and I think I have 100 something so we’re good. Oh and Alice has to come.”
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSYpyeoFyb
“Thats a lot Luke! And I don’t mind, you know I love Alice.”
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2C2Y3CAsEE
“Yeah. Are you ready? Alice is meeting us downstairs so we can go.”
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsDmCVOeTH
“Yep.” She says, and with that we go to find Alice. She was already downstairs waiting on us, we got in the car and I drove us to the mall.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojgjSqU52a
We had fun trying on clothes and making fools of ourselves. We randomly grabbed clothes and had to try them on, we took a whole bunch of pictures on our phones too. I think Alice had the most fun, she would make us try on the most ridiculous things and make us pose for her to take pictures.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhmtwyl5c1
The three of us all got new clothes and shoes, Alice didn’t get as much but she got some stuff.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwAfd9yuND
We also got some snacks from the food court and just window shopped for a while.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFemk7iuC4
It was a lot of fun. By the time we got home it was late, almost one in the morning, and we were all tired. I didn’t want to have to deal with my parents but they were already in bed when we got back so I didn’t have to worry about that.
866Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjC0MX4qG1s
Once we had all our new stuff in our rooms I made sure Alice was in bed and then Kenza and I passed out almost immediately on our separate sides of the bed.

A/N: Sorry its so short. I don’t really like this chapter so its more like a filler to bring the three of them together.
