FLORENCE WASN'T EXCITED for dinner tonight. it was strange, dinner at the larusso's was usually her favorite part of the day. both daniel and amanda were amazing cooks. but tonight sam's boyfriend, miguel, his family, and her dad, johnny lawrence, were all coming over.

miguel was the person robby had kicked off the staircase when all of the karate student got in a fight. she knew it wasn't her fault what happened to miguel, but she still felt guilty.

"anthony," florence said, stopping him before went into the kitchen, "what the hell was that video? the one of kenny."

"I don't know, my friends wanted too, it was stupid," anthony said, although he said like he didn't mean it, florence could tell he was being genuine, he hadn't wanted to do that. "what the hell are you doing here?" he asked johnny lawrence as he two of them stepped into the kitchen.

"i was invited," johnny replied, "who the hell are you?" anthony gave johnny a look before he realized who he was. "wait are you the son? what did you do? switch over to whopper jr's?"

"it's called a growth spurt, dipshit," anthony responded, whispering the last part.

"still a piece of crap," johnny whispered, "have you heard from robby recently?" he asked florence.

"no, i haven't," florence said, "i was just about to ask you the same thing."

"hey kids, dinner," amanda larusso's voice rang through the house. florence and anthony walked to the kitchen.

once everyone is seated at the table, all the adults, sam, and miguel have a conversation about their future and the colleges they want to go to, until miguel accidentally spills mr. larusso's wine.

"mr. larusso, shit," miguel says, accidentally swearing, "i mean i'm sorry." he stutters over some of the words.

"no, don't worry about it. its just a little wine," mr. larusso responds, wiping it off.

after dinner, florence goes back to the guest house. she sat on her phone, scrolling through instagram while she debated calling robby. she eventually decided to try.

robby never picked up the phone, so she decided to leave a message.

"hey robby," she said, "I was just calling to let you know that i miss you, a lot. its been a really long time. school has been going good, I'm getting mostly a's and a few b's," she didn't really know what to say after this, "i hope you get this. just, please call me back when you can. love you, bye."

as she stopped recording the message, she just sat there, trying not to cry.

it had been almost six months since she had even heard from her brother. every time she tried calling him while he was in jail, he would hang up. she tried visiting him, but he never agreed to see her.

out of nowhere, her phone started ringing. she grabbed it fast, hoping it was robby calling her back, but it was just jenny.

"hey jen," florence wiped her tears as she answered.

"can i tell you something?" jenny asked, she talked like it was the most important thing in the world.

"of course, you can talk to about anything," florence said, "is something wrong?"

"nothing is wrong," jenny said, "but you have to promise to tell no one."

"yeah, i promise," florence said, anxious to hear what her friend had to tell her.

"i- i think i like lia," jenny stuttered.

a/n - this chapter is kinda short, but here it is! i really wanted to give jenny a love interest, but kenny seemed too basic to choose so i decided on lia.

this is my last pre-written chapter, so i'm not sure when the next one will be out, but hopefully soon.
