I wouldn't talk to my dad after that. I mean, it's not like he tried to talk to me either.
I threw my bag down in my room, calling Trey. "Hello?"
"Hey, Trey. Wanna do something today?" I asked. "Sure. Is Matt coming too or-"
"Nope. Just me today." I smiled, picking at a string on my jeans. "Sweet. Park in ten?"
"Sure."

We are the biggest kids ever.
We stayed at the park, playing around like ten year olds. I sat on a swing when my phone rang.
I swung as I answered the Skype call. "Hey, Beautiful. Wha- Are you on a swing?"
"Yep." I laughed, stopping the swing. "What are you doing on a swing?"
"Hanging out with this guy." I showed him Trey. "This is Trey. He was my brother's best friend."
"Cool." He replied simply. "What are you doing?" I asked. "Missing my princess." He pouted. I pouted too, "I'm sorry."
"It's not your fault."
"Is that Erica? Let me talk!" That's when Jaimee bounced on his bed, "Rica!"
"Hola, Jaimee." I smiled. He grinned, "How's my sis in-law doing?" Elliot punched Jaimee in the shoulder. "Ow!"
"I'm fine, James. Thank you." I smiled. He pouted, "Don't call me James."
I smirked, "That's officially your new name." He huffed, crossing his arms, "I don't want it." He whined. "Too bad." I mocked.
"Did you tell her ab-" Elliot slapped a hand over Jaimee's mouth. "It's a surprise." He gritted. Jaimee's eyes widened, "Sowwy." He mumbled into Eli's hand.
"Tell me!" He whined. He turned to me glaring, "No."
"Then talk to Trey as I ask Jaimee." I handed my phone to Trey, stealing his. I called Jaimee's phone. "No."
"Elliot!" I pouted. Trey sat, talking to Jaimee. "I'm sorry, Babe. It's a surprise."
"You're no fun." I huffed, swinging my feet. "You'll love it. I promise." He said. "When can I know?"
"Soon." He answered. "Elliot-"
"I love you."
"Elliot-"
"So much."
