"Im back..!" I smirk at the camera after I sit down in the chair next to my dad, Mitchell.
"It's been what? A year?" I question to myself as I look over at my dad. "It's actually been two, sweetheart." He answers putting a hand on mine giving the camera a somewhat reassuring smile. "Well, I took a little vacation," I smile again to myself but it goes away as my dad finishes for me. "At an inpatient program.." I cross my arms over my chest with a huff. "Yes okay..I did have a two year mental break down but I'm all good now. Thanks to the loving support of my dads," I give my him a hug. "And many, many, many therapy appointments." My dad smiles, "My therapist probably hates me." I laugh at myself.

"Well that's nice Alex. I hope you have a wonderful time in college." I say before she leaves. I honestly didn't hear anything she said. This leftover thanksgiving dinner is just too good. "Haley..why do you look panicked?" She glances over at me before turning in her chair to face me. " I left my watch in one of my dads houses.." She whispers to me. Not surprised. "Wait why where you there in the first place?" I asked. "A very wonderful 16 jet infused tub. I have to go get it before my dad finds it care to join?" She gets up. "Sure just let me..finish my ham." She goes to say goodbye to everyone as I finish my ham. I needed somewhere to smoke some weed since my dads were going to be home today. "Hold on nobody leaves without a bag of meat." Jay says handing Haley a bag of turkey. "Hey where's mine?" I ask sort of feeling left out. "You practically just ate your bag.." He says before Haley drags me out. Rude.

Of course. Andy off all people. Honestly don't even know why he was there in the first place. "I'm gonna sneak off to the backyard. You two have fun." I whispered to Haley who tried to get me to stay but I was already heading to the backyard.

"Don't get me wrong I'm totally there for family when they need me but just not when I know something awkward could possibly happen." I shift in my seat, "If I get to call a bitch out then I'm there."

It wasn't until I had gotten only halfway through my joint when shit hit the fan. I hear a car lock from the front of the house which makes me quickly get up to investigate. I look through the glass door to see my dads coming into the house. Bitch my heart dropped down to my ass. "Crap..!" I curse under my breath as I hide behind the outside bar and pull my phone out to text Haley.

... why are my dads here??

H: ... I have no idea! Just stay put

I was dead. I'm gonna die today. Yup. My dads are gonna not only going to put out my joint they're gonna take me out too. Not only did I disappoint them by not going to my assistant job I got in Indiana but I'm also not going to college right away after high school. I took a hit of my joint to calm myself to which it was thankfully doing it's job.

"I'm a disappointment I know.." I put my hands up in defense. "I'm supposed to be graduating this year I just have a lot of work to make up because of my visit to the hospital." I hold up a piece of paper and show the camera. "I made a list of things I would like to do or work on during my gap year. So far I have motivation and that's it." I smile.

I finish the rest of my joint before peering over the outside bar I was behind and seeing Luke with some friends holding beer..? Why didn't he invite me first off and second I'm glad he got caught and not me. It wasn't until I saw Phil walking passed them with VR gear on and running around. I started laughing way too hard. How embarrassing! I wiped my eyes to see Claire coming inside as well. Damn was everyone coming to the house? I have to get out of here. I sneakily come out from my hiding place as Claire takes her coat off revealing a short Viking dress she had on. I am utterly confused right now. Claire starts to wonder around the house a bit making me hide again behind a lounge chair. Why is this so scary? I peer over again to see Alex is there now. Okay I think the whole family is here. I didn't think things could get worse when I hear a clear but quiet beep near me. What was that? I hear it again. "What was that..?!" I look around to see a sprinkler right next to me and as I'm about to deck it the sprinkler goes off in my FREAKING face. "AH!" I scream and jump out of my hiding place. I groan as I stand there wet and everyone looking at me from inside.

"I learned today that if you're good at lying you can get away with anything." I smirk to myself. "I just told them I was trying to sneak in because I wanted to use the 16 jet powered tub Haley told me about. Since I'm one of Phil's favorites even though I'm not his kid he let me use it. Did you know it was in Lil Wayne's music video?"
