You rode on Aarons neck, holding onto his black hair while resting your chin ontop of his head.

Whole leaving Garroths home you asked the question, "Garroth? Do you even know where we're going?"

"Well...We can take the quick way! Which is that way!"

All of a sudden, Aaron look really uncomfortable.

"Uhh...Do we have to go that way-?" "Only if you wanna get there fast. By the way, it's kinda weird our parents are both asking for us, don't you think?"

"Yeah, but its like Y/n said. It'll be an answer to the money problem so i'm willing to hear them out." "Alright! Lets go then!" Garroth smiled.

While you all walked to the Ro'meaves house you couldn't help but smile. It's been a little bit since you've seen all four of your semi-grandparents.

It'll be nice to see them again!

But as you were in your own little world, a fimilar scent filled your nose.

"Hm?" "What is it, Y/n?" "I think Moms outside." "What!?" Both Garroth and Aaron yelped.

Suddenly, Aphmaus ringtone rang out showing that your suspicions were correct.

"Hello? Aph speaking." "It's Aph..!" "That's what I said-" "Hide!" Aaron whispear shouted, snatching you off his neck with ease before you crouched down low.

But...you nearly facepalmed when Kim was just standing in the open, clearly confused at the situation at hand.

Luckily, Garroth handled it.

"Shush Kim..! Quiet!" "I don't undetstand..Why're we hiding from Aphmau?" "Cause is she sees us, she'll ask where we're going!" You answered.

"So..?" "I..can't think of an excuse..!" "Mall Day!" "She'd never by that!" "She might if you're with Y/n!" "Yeah! Use me!" "Shhh!" "Uhh...Why?"

"I just don't want her to catch on. It's a really big deal that I keep this a secret until we go. So if I can't make this happen, I don't want to get her hopes up. It's bad enough Y/ns hopes are already up..." Aaron mumbled the last part to himself, which made you pout ever so slightly.

But you decided not to go further than that.

"I understand...I'll create a distraction!" Garroth smiled, "A distraction..?"

Just where was he going with this...

Aphmau was chattering away on the phone with Katelyn, seemingly, before a rather large rock hit the trash cans next to her to create a bang.

"Gah!? What the-" You jumped and quickly turned to Garroth who seemed to be disappointed with his own actions.

"Garroth! How was that a distraction!?" "Sorry, I was aiming for her..." "What!?" "Don't worry! I have another rock!" "Don't even!" "I'll bite your arm off if you try." You and Aaron glared.

But, luckily, Aphmau seemed to walk away before she noticed you all. You sighed in relief and felt yourself relax.

"That was real close..." "Aaron, is it really that big a deal to keep secret?" "It is and I don't wanna go into details but it means alot to me that she doesn't catch on."

"Nn...I just don't know Aphmau that well to be comfortable with this.." "Kim, don't worry. Aaron and Aphmau have known eachother for a LOOOONG time."

"Yeah! They do secret stuff like this all the time!" You and Garroth reassured, making the rather timid girl sigh and feel somewhat less stressed.

"Well if that's the case then I suppose that's alright. Sorry, i'm still getting used to the idea of having more than one friend. So this sneaking around stuff is new to be, hehe-"
