Dove's pov:

I was lying on my bed really bored and tired and suddenly I heard something hit my window. It was a rock. I looked out the window and it was Asher singing 'L is for the way you look at me' by The Hit Crew. I was so confused. It's 4 pm. Is this my anniversary surprise? Nope. I know this because seconds later Nova and Tate burst into my room screaming.

"Dove wake up, we're bored," I heard Tate say

"What time is it?" I ask

"2 pm," Nova said

"WHAT I WANTED TO TAKE A NAP IT'S BEEN 4 HOURS," I screamed

"Okay, whatever, we wanna go to the park." Tate said

"Get in the car," I said

"Can Asher come?" Nova asked

"Yeah if he wants to but why?"

"No reason I just like hanging out with him."

"He's my boyfriend,"

"Ew not like that, I have a guy at school I have a crush on,"

"WAIT REALLY?"

"Yeah, calm down,"

"NOVA, MY 13 YEAR OLD SISTER HAS HER FIRST CRUSH AT SCHOOL, I WILL NOT CALM DOWN."

"Wait, she has a crush on someone? Ew boys are so gross," I heard Tate say

"You don't get it," Nova said "You're gay,"

"NOVA." Tate yells

"Wait, you're gay?" I ask

"Yeah, is that okay?"

"Yeah, of course it is, why wouldn't it be." I say

"You don't think I'm weird?"

"No, you know Asher is bisexual, right?"

"He is?" Nova and Tate say

"Yeah, I thought we went over this," I said "Tate I support you and I know our family will too, but you don't have to tell them now."

"Okay, thank you. I don't want to tell them, I don't think they need to know now, I think one day I'll just bring home a girl I like and they'll find out like that, in the future though." Tate says

"Alright, I'll text Asher to come over,"

me: hey

ash <3: hi babe

me: can you come to the park with nova, tate and i?

ash <3: when

me: now

ash <3: give me 5 minutes i'll be at your house

me: okayy

"Guys he said he's coming in 5 minutes, are you guys ready?" I told them

"Yeah,"

I heard a knock at the door a few minutes later. It was Asher. We went to the park and I hung out with Nova while Tate spoke to Asher. I am so proud of Tate for realizing who she is.

We went to the park and later went to the mall. We went shopping for Nova and Tates middle school dance dresses. Tate said she asked this girl she likes. Nova got asked by this guy named blake. I told both of them to make sure they aren't being taken advantage of. Later we went home.
