"Busted!" I said and all eyes went on us. Our parents all stood up and looked at us nervously.
"What are you guys doing here?" Jackson asked.
"My house, pretty sure we can enter as we like. As for you, why are you here?" I asked.
"You didn't seem to want this place as your home the last time you were here." My mother said, folding her arms.
"What's going on? Dad?" Ava asked.
"We should tell them. It's no use in hiding anymore." Scott said.
"What were you all hiding?" Selena asked.
"Told you, they're psychotic murderers." I said and they looked at us confused.
"Not now." Selena said.
"We are doing an investment deal, of reopening my company." Jackson said.
"What?" We all asked in unison.
"So why was it a secret?" Selena asked.
"The Johnson's have a very complicated history when it comes to business. We needed to do this under low as possible." Scott said.
"But why?" Kaitlyn asked.
"Because your father's company have some trouble lately after the late rumors you know of... and we also decided to invest into his." My mother said.
"Still doesn't explain why in secret though?" Ava asked.
"Because they're joining three of the biggest and most corrupted companies together. If word gets out, others will do as they can to take them down." Selena asked.
"Someone's been taking their classes seriously." My mother said and I slightly rolled my eyes.
"Guess we were wrong, all along." I said to the others.
"We've been on a wild goose chase." Kaitlyn said.
"Uhm... care to elaborate why you're here all of sudden? And what's with the crazy accusations?" My mother Aria asked and we all looked at each other.
"We- uhm-" Selena started looking at us for help.
"Wanted to know, if we can hold a party! Here!" I said and everyone looked at me like 'seriously'.
"What party, why?" Scott asked.
"My father's. It's his birthday in two days." I said and all of there faces dropped. My mom's face was sadden and Scott's seemed hurt. Jackson was just Jackson.
"And you couldn't call or text me about that?" She asked.
"Look, forget it, I'll just find another place." I said.
"No! We'll do it here! Of course!" My mother said trying not to breakdown. I can already hear the pain in her voice. Sorry mom.
******
"That was some- quick thinking there." Selena said.
"Yeah." I said.
"You okay?" She asked as she wrapped her hand around my shoulders as we walked outside.
"Yeah. I've actually been wanting to do this for a while now, I just couldn't find the strength." I said and she hugged me in which I returned.
I then got a text message. The girls then looked at me worried.
"Its okay, it's just Jayden." I said and they look at me with relief.
Jayden:
Hey. I have some great news. But can you come to Winky Dinky? There's something special for you there♡ i miss you and love you so much!
"I gotta go. I'll see you guys later!" I said already walking out.
"Where are you going?!" Kaitlyn asked.
"I'll be back soon!" I said getting into my car.
"Wait! How are we supposed to get home?!" Evelyn asked but I had already started the car and pulled off.
*******
Kaitlyn's POV...
"Wait! How are we supposed to get home?!" Evelyn asked but Veronica had already started the car and pulled off.
"What was so important that she rushed?" Selena asked.
"Her boyfriend?" Ava said.
"Boyfriend?!" We all turned around quickly to see Aria looking at us confused.
"Long story. We'll let her tell you about it aunt Ria, when she comes back." Selena said.
"Huh! Anyways, would you guys wanna stay for dinner? Its been so long since we've had a family dinner." She asked.
"Uhmm.. sure I guess. You guys wanna stay to? Please?" Selena asked.
"Yeah sure! Its been a while since any of us had a family dinner." I said and she smiled.
********
Veronica's POV....
As I pulled up at Winky Dinky, I quickly made my way inside. I walked down further through the seats but I found nothing. There were only like two other persons, whose just minding their own business.
Is he messing with me? Suddenly I felt arms wrapped around me, and I immediately knew who it was.
"Miss me?" Jayden said. I quickly turned around to meet his eyes.
"Jayden!" I said excitedly as I quickly kissed him.
"Wanna eat? My treat." He said and I nodded.
"I'm starved!" I said.
"Have a seat ma'lady and I'll fix us up some delicious yum yum." He said and I smiled. As I sat, I then got a message. Its probably the girls. My mistake.
Unknown:
What do you think would happen when he finds out you've been replacing his kisses? And his mama? Buckle up, I'm just getting started with you. XOXO

"Son of bit-" I was cut off when Jayden reappeared startling me.
"You okay?" He asked.
"Yeah yeah. I'm all good." I said.
"Alright, well they're out of noodles so wanna get some fries and chicken?" He asked and I nodded.
"Sounds great!" I said and he smiled.
After a while of silent eating, he finally spoke up.
"Alright, you gotta say something, anything." He said.
"After we're done eating." I said and he looked confused.
After eating, we both headed out to the Lake view. I convinced him that we both should go in our own vehicles.
"Wanna tell me what's going on?" He asked as I walked up to meet him.
"Don't cut me off until I'm done." I said to him.
"Ronnie, you're kinda off making me nervous." He said.
"I have never met someone so special in all my life, another guy who'd put me first, love me and take such good care of me." I started and he looked at me heartbroken already know where this is heading.
"Ronnie please-" He started but I cut him off.
"Shh please. Let me finish." I said and he nodded.
"Okay." He said.
"But, we can't be together anymore. The guilt will kill me and haunt me everyday of my life for what I did to you." I said.
"What did you do?" He asked and I close my eyes tightly.
