twenty-three: the disneyland trip.

"Man, what shoes are you wearing?" I say, opening the door for Jack.

"I brought slippers because I didn't want to wear my jordans until we got to the park." He says, slipping off faded pink slippers.

"Can I try them on?' I ask. I feel like even though we don't know each other super well, we've reached a level of comfortability that I can ask shit like that.

"Fuck it, go wild." I slip them on and then start walking to Emerson's room.

"Where is everyone?" He follows.

"Em's room. She's still getting ready," I roll my eyes. I walk into the room. You first see Zach and Corbyn lying on the bed watching something on the TV and Jonah sitting at her desk, scrolling on his phone. Jack jumps on the bed, landing right in between the two boys, pulling out his phone. I go to sit on the bare white couch.

"Does every room have a couch in it?"

"Yes," Emerson chimes from her bathroom connected to her room. "Couches are my favorite piece of furniture so whenever I find a cool one, I buy it."

I look down at my phone to check the time, "9:20."

"EMERSON ANGEL, IF YOU DO NOT-"

"Hurry up, I know. I know." Emerson yells back at me.

"Her middle name is Angel?" Jonah says to me.

"Doesn't fit her at all, I know." I say back. "Wait, someone make the group chat."

Zach sits up, "I'll do it. You just add Em, okay?"

"You have my number?"

"Yeah, Daniel sent it to all of us."

"IF EM HURRIES UP, MAYBE WE CAN MAKE IT TO HIS HOUSE BEFORE SUNDOWN."

"I'm adding you now." Zach says.

"Okay, all of you say your names in the group chat for us."

"Ira, look up for your contact picture." Zach says.

I look at his camera, "Send that to me, I probably look hot in Jack's grandpa slippers."

"Yo, can I put your contact under KJ?" Jack asks.

"That's a new nickname but yeah, go for it." I smile.

Emerson finally comes out of the bathroom, "Finished, why are y'all waiting? Let's go to Disney."

After a packed 30 minute ride, we finally arrived at the Disneyland gates.
