Gilly's P.O.V.

"Thanks for the ride. Call me later!" I say as I get out of the car. I'm now in front of my dad's shoe store. We live around the block, but I wanted to go to the shop.

As I open the door, the little bell rings and my dad looks up from whatever he's doing. "Hey Gillian."

"Hi Dad. What's up?"

"Eh, not much. What should we eat for dinner?"

"Uhhh, Mexican?"

"I'll ask your mom."

"Okay, can I go to the back and do homework?"

"Go for it Gils"

"Okay, see you later." I reply as I make my way to the back of the store. I open the door that has a sign on it, 'Employees Only'. I snicker at the sign and walk into the room. Sitting at the desk, I begin my homework.

Jax's P.O.V

"So glad I could talk more with your girlfriend." Raz says I we get out of the car.

"For the last time, she is not my girlfriend." I reply, opening the front door. Raz just laughs. "Are the kids home?" I hear someone ask. "Yeah!" I call back.

A tall man walks out of the kitchen, "My two kids. Man you're growing up fast!" he says. 

"Hi Dad." Raz and I say in unison. Dad gives us both a hug and I go to do my homework. 

After a while, someone knocks on my door, it the opens slowly. "Hey Jackson..."

I turn around to see my mom. "Mom!? What are you doing here?"

"I live in this city Jax." she laughs "Don't tell me you forgot... It's fine, but there's a family meeting during dinner." I groan.

"Yeah..." my mom then walks into my room and hugs me. "I've missed you so much, you and your sister, and your dad."

My mom opted to stay in one place instead of moving a lot like the rest of us. I forgot she lived here. My parents are still married, it's just long distance. It's honestly really complicated and I don't like talking about it. I always get confused, but now we're all together, until we move again... 

"We're going out to eat, any recommendations?" my mom asks.

"I dunno... Pizza?"

"We'll see." Mom walks out of my room and Raz walks in.

"Pizza? Really?" she says with a laugh and I shrug.

Raz sits on my bed, facing me. "How you feeling?"

"I'm fine I guess... Not much happening, just math homework."

"Okay..." Raz replies, grabbing my phone.

"Can I check something here?" she asks. I nod.

Raz's P.O.V.

I unlock Jax's phone and go to his contacts, there's a lot of them. Guess that's what happens when you move a lot.

I click on Gilly's contact and pull out my phone. I put her number in and I do the same with some of his other contacts. 

Now I have 7 new contacts; Gilly, Ollie, Kayla, Allison-Grace (AG), Jocelyn, Maxine, and Hayley. Sweet. I stand up and put Jax's phone on his desk. He looks at me and I give him a wink.

"Oh my god. What did you do?" he says.

"Got some new contacts." I reply and leave before he can ask me more.

Jax's P.O.V.

Raz does this all the time, shed goers into my phone and gets my friends phone numbers. I tried to stop awhile ago, I've given up and just let it happen. 

I finished my homework, so I think I'll call Gilly. 

I pick up my phone and call her.

Ring, ring, rin-

"Hey Jax!"
