"Someone is really making you smile and laugh everyday when you are on your phone so spill who is it?"  Cole said

"I know you know who is it but it is just friendly talk that's all and I don't have a crush on anyway. Spencer said as he rang the doorbell.

"I mean you go to a gym a lot so who are you trying to impress?" He asked

"Why would I want to impress someone by saying I go to the gym a lot but if was the parents it would be that I graduated college with a bachelor's degree in business."  Spencer said

"Which you don't have a job in that category." Cole said.

"Yeah because I realized I can find a better career  than having one  in business ."

"How is it that working out?"

"It is working out great and beside I don't need impress people when all I can just be myself." Spencer said as he rang the doorbell again.

"Why do you sound so sarcastic." Cole said.

"Weird but that wasn't meant to sound sarcastic."Spencer said as he banged on the door.

The door was heard opened and   Marcus leaned against the front door while eating cereal acting like everything was normal.

"So you knew it was me that you couldn't open the door." Spencer asked and Marcus nodded.

"I really hate you sometimes."

"The feelings is mutual Spencer and abuela is here." Marcus said

"Really?" Cole asked.

"Yeah she is talking to mom." He said.

"Okay ." Cole said

"Mom ,Cole and some random guy is here." Marcus said as Spencer rolled his eyes at him.

"Hi Abuela." Spencer  and Cole said as both of them gave their grandmother a hug.

"How are you two ?" She said.

"We are doing great you know ." Cole said.

"To be honest with me Cole are you okay?" She said with a concerned look on her face.

"Yeah I am totally fine." Cole said said with a fake smile and the fact he knows that she can sense it and anyone could sense that that he is not.

"¿Cuándo fue la última vez que comiste, te ves tan flaco?" Their grandma asked.(Translated: When was the last time you ate, you look so skinny)

"La semana pasada abuela." Cole said. ( Translated:Last week grandma.)

"Tonterías que necesitas para comer más.  Grandma said. (Translated: Nonsense you need to eat more.)

"There is something I need to tell you guys."

***
It was already August and Cole and Maddie were still on a break.

He still missed her but he knows how this relationship goes and he hates how toxic it is.

Cole waited outside of the courtroom and waited for Ryan to come out until he did.

He didn't want to see or talk to Maddie even though his heart is urging him to.

"So?" Cole questioned.

"He is going to prison for twenty years and no parole, also my parents are now divorced. Ryan said.

"That's great Ryan and tell Maddie I said hi." Cole said.

"You know you could just talk to her and I know you still love her even though you have commitments issues but I can see it." Ryan said.

"I kinda really don't want to talk to her until I am ready that's all so respect my decision." Cole said.

"Yeah I know Cole." He said.

"I gotta go talk to my aunt but I will see you later." Cole said.

"Yeah talk to you soon." Ryan said before he left the place and Cole was looking at Maddie who was looking at him as well.

He smiled and then walked away before he regrets doing something that he might actually regret.

***
Cole was in his house watching tv until he heard a knock on his door.

He looked at the peephole and rolled his eyes then opened the door.

"What are you doing here?" Cole asked as he let Maddie in and closed the door behind her.

"Cole can we talk?" Maddie said.

"Yeah sure because that is what you came here for."Cole said as he rolled his eyes at her.
