"Oh, my god, Laurel. How many boxes did you bring?" Susannah says while cutting up some fruit "I told you not to bother."

"Your fancy little market doesn't even carry diet coke, Beck," Laurel says while taking stuff out of the boxes. I hear the door open and in comes, a dripping Belly, looks like she had her Belly flop moment "Hi," Belly says while sitting down on the stool across from Susannah

"You're dripping water all over the place," Laurel says annoyed "Looks like you had fun," I say looking at Belly and laughing as Susannah whispers something to Laurel

"You have always been lovely, but oh, honey, look at you," Susannah says grabbing Belly's arms and lifting them "I think I look pretty much the same," Belly says laughing and setting her arms down

"You do not look the same at all," She says going to hug Belly "You're growing up," She says in a low tone

"Same for you Tate, I mean you were gorgeous when I saw you last but now, wow," She says walking over and hugging me "Thank you, Susannah," I say laughing

"I just know Conrad is gonna be all over you," She says letting me go and cupping my face in her hands "Oh, please. He is not going to be all over me." I say laughing and rolling my eyes

Laurel comes back into the kitchen with a towel in her hands and pulls it around Belly "Laur, she's you all over again." Susannah says while walking back toward the counter

"People always say I look like my dad." Belly says "No, when your mom and I first met, she looked just like you," Susannah says before going back to cutting up fruit

"Except I had no boobs at all." Laurel says causing me to laugh "You should call your father and tell him we got in safely." Laurel says walking back to the table to take things out of the boxes

"Oh, that reminds me I have to call my family, I'll be right back," I say standing up with a smile and walking over toward the stairs "Okay," Susannah says smiling at me

"I'm so glad you got her to come this summer," I hear Susannah say before their voices become mumbled. I walk into the room I'm staying in and grab my phone off the charger, I click on Taylor's contact and press the Facetime button. It rings for a few seconds before she answers and I am met with her beautiful face

"Oh, thank god. You're not dead," Taylor says letting out a huff of air causing me to laugh "I just forgot to call, Tell Mom and Dad I made it alright," I say smiling

"I will, but now tell me. Have you talked to Conrad? Met any cute boys? God, It's so boring here without you," Taylor says falling onto her bed "No, No and that's your fault," I say rolling my eyes

"Have you even seen Conrad?" She asks "Yes, but I tried my best to avoid eye contact," I state

"Boring. How are you supposed to have a great summer without some steamy sex with your ex," Taylor says rolling her eyes "I can have a great summer without that,"

"Yeah, but it will make it even better. I'm 110 percent here for the Cate make-up," She says laughing "Cate? What the fuck is Cate?" I say laughing

"You and Conrad's couple name," She says in disbelief that I didn't piece that together "and if we want to use your full name then Catum, but Cate sounds better."

"Yea, yea. whatever. I gotta get back downstairs but tell Mom and Dad I miss them and no stealing my clothes," I say rolling my eyes because she has my top on right now "Yeah, love you," She says rolling her eyes and hanging up the phone

"Steven, I swear to God, if you look at that phone one more time, I'm putting it in the screen basket," Laurel says annoyed while looking at Steven and Jeremiah as they laugh at something on his phone "It's just we want to see your beautiful faces," Susannah says before taking a sip out of her drink
