The Evansson twins

25

Scarlett POV

Things between madeline and i are setteling down, i can feel she tries to put an effort in giving me a chance wich i'm glad about. We've spent much time together this past week. Time flew by because in two days we're flying home and than madeline will finaly meet rose. I'm nervous about my two little girls meeting and about how that will mess with my feelings. I always feel guilty towards jackson for not loving him the same like i love his sister but now woth rose added to that i think my guilt will burst trough the roof. Today i'm having a meeting with the twins teacher to discuss what's the best ootion for them in new york because i want both of them to keep their grades up.

Madeline POV

Spending so much time with scarlett is actualy nicer than i tought it would be. As aunt carol said her behaviour changed when i started putting in mor effort and i like the direction this is headed. Because i'm having such a good time i almost forgot we're leaving to new york in two days. Two fucking days until we leave the place i've called home for fifteen years. Jackson is already buying a whole stock of sigarettes so he won't fall wothout anytime soon. If i didn't know better i'd say he's dealing them but it's all for when we get to new york because over there he won't be able to buy them so easily, or not at all.

The four of us are pkanning a goodbye camping trip in the woods like we used to do all the time. The only diffrence right now is that we know it's the last time we'll be able to do that and i already know me and jade will cry, like ugly cry, but it doesn't matter. We already asked chris and he said 'if your mom says it's okay than it's fine by me' so now we're on our way to ask scarlett. I saw her standing in the kitchen with a disstressed look on her face and that's already promissing. I look next to me only to find out the stupid hippo left me alone to ask scarlett. "Hey uhh i wanted to ask you something" i say in asmall voice and she looks at meand her expression softens a bit "what's wrong?" She asks and i take a deep breath "well jackson and i were wondering if we could go ont his camping trip with jade and mason for the last time. It's like a sort of goodbye trip" i say and i see her thinking " when would you leave and where is it?" She asks "we'd leave as soon as we could to put up our tent at our spot in the forrest near the lake" i say and i see her thinking "it's our way of saying goodbye and we'd realy like to go since we'll be halfway across the world after that" i say and i can see a bit of guilt on her face "sure have fun and text me when you get there, when you go to sleep and when you wake up. And call me if you need anything okay" she says and i walk over and hug her "thanks and i will" i tell her and she grips me a bit tighter.

I texted scralett when we arrived, i even sent her i hilarious video of the two boys trying to figure out how to put up their tent. Jade and i were already done and our sleeping bags were already laid out so we started drinking while we were waiting on them. This time we got solething a bit stronger than beer because it was our goodbye trip and we wanted to get drunk one last time before we left. After way to long they finaly finished their tent and joined us for drinks. They took so long that jade and i are already a bit tipsy but that's okay. We put on the music and start drinking, talking and playing our usual stupid games. A bit after midnight i text scarlett goodnight so she thinks we're sleeping but we're not. We spent the nzxt few hours drinking the rest of the bottles of wodka we had, jackson smoked almost half a pack, mason was throwing up somewhere between the trees and jade ans i were vrying about how much e'll miss this.

The next morning we wake up around 11:45 and the first thing i do is texting scarlett so she won't come searching the woods with police dogs. My head hurts mike hell and by the groan jade makes i'm sure hers does aswell. We're going outside in the wind to fasten the process of sobering up because we had to go home around dinner time because our plane leaves tomorrow morning. After a few minutes of the two of us sitting in silence the boys joined us and we started unpacking our lunch. "I don't wanna leave" i say and they all nod "i don't want you to go either" jade says and i lay my head on her shoulder. "It'll be weird not having the two of you around all of the time" mason says and jade humms in agreement "i'll miss you two dumbasses" i say and we all chuckle "it's not like you won't hear from is anymore. We'll call and text everyday" mason says "yeah but it's still not the same" i say and i feel the tears rolling down my cheecks. "You're coming to the airport tomorow to say goodbye right?" I ask "ofcourse we are. We wonmt let you go without a final goodbye you know" they answer ant that makes me smile a bit. "You know i love you dinosaurs right?" I ask and they nod "we do" they answer and we just sit there looking at the water until we have to dtart packing to go home.
