It is 1:50 pm, i am wearing my baggy jeans with a dark blue hoodie, i am going to the triplets house to study with chris for my hitler exam. I knock on the front door and chris opens the door, smiling.

"hey" he says

"hello" i say smiling gently

"uhm, come in" he says

i come inside and see nick and matt on the couch

"hey matt, hey nicky" i say smiling

"wait why're you here? did we have plans or something?" nick asks standing up

"oh my god did you forget again?!" i yell stomping my foot

"im sorr-" i cut nick off

"im messing with you, im studying with chris" i say sitting down on the kitchen table

"i hate you" nick says sitting back down

"aww i love you more" i say smiling as chris sits down next to me

chris and i sit down and study for about 2 hours, he then just asks me question after question

"k, last one, when did he die?" chris asks closing the book 

"uhm, april 30th 1946?" i say hesitantly

"close, april 30th 1945" chris says

"eh" i say sitting down "at least i got the other ones correct" 

"yeah" chris says "what time is it?" 

"4 pm, i have to go now" i say grabbing my things and putting them in my backpack

"oh, why?" chris asks helping me

"im going to my grandparents" i say closing the back pack "and hailey is here too" i say as i swing the backpack on my shoulder

"okay, bye." chris says opening the front door

"bye chris, thank you" i say going to my car

"youre welcome" i hear him say as i close the door to my car

as im driving, i can only think about chris. chris chris chris. Literally everything about him was perfect. "snap out of it" i said to myself, but i couldnt. Hes my best friends triplet brother, i cant be falling for him, at least not right now. I just started talking to this boy, im not even close to him. I get to my grandparents house and see my sister outside waiting for me with 2 coffees in her hand, i smile and run to hug her, she hugs me back.

"hey lil sis" she says handing me the cup

"hello" i say smiling

"well you look happy, who'd you make out with?" she asks giggling

"oh you know, i just saw ryan reynolds on the street and i kissed him" i say going inside

"look at you kissing a celebrity" she says following me

i sit down in between my mom and ben, my sister sits down on my lap

"get the f- i mean, get off of me" i say 

"mhm" my mom says

"where is aunt liv?" i ask

"shes getting groceries with lucas, she'll be back later" my mom says

Oh, did i forget to mention lucas? yeah, hes my cousin. Him and i were really close and we talked every day but now we just talk whenever he feels like talking to someone. He kind of pushed me away after he got popular and got tons of friends. I hear the front door open and its them, my aunt and lucas. 

"hi liv, hi lucas" i say smiling gently

"whats up" lucas says sitting in between ben and i

"you guys dont talk much anymore, why?" my aunt asks

"we just dont, not a big deal" lucas says shrugging

"could you possibly be more rude?" i mumble

"shut the fuck up" lucas says going on his phone

"okay and thats my cue, bye everyone" i say getting up and grabbing my things

"why the fuck are you so sensible?!" lucas asks furrowing his eyebrows

"im not sensible i just dont like your attitude towards me, im not gonna let that slide." i say grabbing my keys "hailey im going to the triplets house wanna come?" 

"coming" she says standing up.

we get in my car and i start driving "hes an ass, i wish he had never gotten so popular" i say looking in my review mirror

"well, people change" hailey says

"i know, anyways, you excited to see nick?" i ask

"yes! i miss him so much oh my god" hailey says

hailey, nick, avery and i were always close but then she went to college. She hadnt seen him in a long time. I get there and she knocks on the door, chris opens "shit" i think to myself

"uhm, hey maya, and hey hailey" chris says

"uh hi! is nick here?" i ask 

"in his room with avery" chris says

"thanks chris" i say grabbing haileys hand and leading her upstairs to nicks room

"HELLO HELLOOO" hailey says walking into the room

"get the f- HAILEY?!" nick yells

"finish what you were gonna say" i say crossing my arms

"i was gonna say get the front door" nick says

"mhm, watch your tone" i say sitting down on the bed

"I missed youuu" hailey says 

"me too!" nick says

we hang out for a while and go back home, i want to be closer to chris and matt, i just dont know how..ill figure out soon enough.
