“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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2M836WcPML
“Really? That’s great, dude!” He says, almost as excitedly as I did. “Does that mean you guys are coming today?”
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTeKtkb8CU
“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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zw2wjZ1Bs
“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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKkiTkACoV
“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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8vdduaf57
“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.”
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8EjypO7pm
“Alright. See ya soon!” I reply.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JctxmKz5P
“Bye Puck!” Says Kenza right before the call ends.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1GXbWYCwO
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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEyKnXTyWX
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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMVUYHrn4Z
Kenza had finished before me and went to make sure Alice got all she needed.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBweT7rKho
We were packed and had everything loaded in the car before the hour was over.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8tATkybUU
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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPgrz6CICv
After we finished going over the rules we started to say our goodbyes.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0hvtkX6ON
“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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSu7LIvzzr
“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.”
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMgEHmHza8
“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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOAy0KXH1S
“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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgen7IG2Qoq
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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvfOE3lXgE
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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxomdogirNY
“I’m sorry for the way I was acting, sweetie.” Mom apologizes to her.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4shVYsLf84
“It’s o-”
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEewuaF83FP
“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.”
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfD3tYs5QSR
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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7Rm7sLhlD
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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lqaDOAh3r
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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QEYdaHwAQ
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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52cFQBr1mS
“So what did my mom whisper to you?” She immediately blushes and looks away from me.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRmyavKWjv
“Nothing…”
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKFv8XL1hd
“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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnr8WJySzr
“I don’t want to say it.” She mumbles to where I barely heard her.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHT5PMKdcmy
“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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrdLLdLlR6
“No. It’s not bad. Just embarrassing.” She’s still not looking at me.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGO3PL1yaEH
“Just tell me. You know you can tell me anything.” I say, trying to persuade her into telling me.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0r9bQHPneg
“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?
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKUBdjbk6X
“Me?”
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXhJkqmMVO
“Yes you, Luke.” She says looking up for a second to roll her eye then looks away again real quick.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORFiAmB9wH
“What could she possibly have sad to embarrass you that involves me?” I ask getting more confused the more this conversation goes on.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlzX4ZbI4P
“Fine do you really want to know?” She says, finally giving in.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdCOsjCW79
“Yes! I’ve only been trying to get it out of you from the moment you got in the car.” I exclaim.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYsJHkoHI9
“Well she said-”
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedfe1lTEBS
“Hey Guys! Let’s go!” Alice yells opening the door and climbing in the back seat.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDPL75uWZl
“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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvYMRCHrxm
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.
787Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hJ4wjqWlN
With that we were on our way to Puck. An hour or so away.
