Chapter 35
(Luke's POV)
We have been at Brookfield Zoo for nearly three hours already and I can't get enough. Jenn said we can visit the penguins last, for me. She likes the dolphins best, but we already went to see them first. The zoo is located right next to a high school, I wouldn't mind if I went to a high school right near a zoo.
"Jenn we have seen everything here, but the penguins! Can we please go seem them!" I groan.
"ugh fine."
"Yaaay!" I scream.
We were at the wolves section of the zoo and the penguin exhibit isn't that far. I fast pace towards the building and Jenn keeps shouting at me to come back. I feel like a little kid.
"PENGUINS!" I shout when we get to their exhibit.
"Luke, there are people here," Jenn says whispering.
"I don't care. They don't love penguins as much as I do," I smirk.
Jenn probably considers me a child right now. I decide to take out my phone and take a billion photos, one as my wallpaper. I need to adopt a penguin soon. I am 18 so it's legal right? I feel Jenn brush past me and out the exit. I stay in here because penguins are just so cute.
When a bunch of little kids start coming in to the exhibit, I walk away and find Jenn. She was in the gift shop, just looking around. Right near where she was, was a cute little penguin stuffed animal with ear muffs and a scarf on.
"Jenn!"
"What Luke?"
"Can we get this? Pleaseeee?" I beg.
"It's 20 dollars for that small thing. We need the money to get into Lincoln Park Zoo."
"We don't have to go there, we already saw all these animals. It would just be a waste of time. Plus I kinda want to get back to the guys."
"Fine. But you owe me."

"Luke!" Calum shouts at me.
He begins running down the hotel hallway and I slowly pick up my pace. My penguin, Tadd, is around my arm. When me and Calum finally connect in a hug, I take Tadd into the hug too. Calum separates from the hug and stares at me like I just said I hate penguins.
"What is that?" he asks, pointing to Tadd.
"Tadd."
"Tadd?"
"Luke forced me to buy 'Tadd' at the Brookfield Zoo store this morning. So that is why we are here so early. Luke rather buy a stuffed animal penguin than go to Lincoln Park Zoo," Jenn says mad, walking into our hotel room.
"You got some lady problems to handle," Harry says, laughing down the hall.
I slowly open the door and find Jenn sitting on the bed, watching television. I don't get why she was so mad. I mean, we should've just went to one zoo in general. Seeing the same animals, but in different zoos would just be a waste of money. Management offered to give us a certain amount of money for us to spend while we were gone yesterday and today, but all I wanted was a penguin stuffed animal. I left mine in Australia.
"Jenn, what is wrong?"
She turns around and stares at me, "I really wanted to go to the Lincoln Park Zoo, this might be the last time we come here, I don't want to leave without seeing everything."
"There are going to be more times we will be here Jenn. 5 Seconds of Summer is going on tour next year..."
"What?! Are you serious?" she shouts.
