Devils and Angels (GG Reboot)

Chapter 31

Double Update So Read Chapter 30 First Please, If You Haven't Already. XOXO 

The rest of Spring Break had been rather uneventful compared to the first half. 

I make my way downstairs for breakfast and catch Westin and Obie enjoying some cereal.

 "No practice?" I question upon seeing Westin.

 "Bye-week." He explains.

 I start to fix myself a coffee when Obie clears his throat. 

"Hey, Willow, if you are okay with this, I'd love to take you out for dinner tonight as a thank you for your help and of course letting me stay here with y'all till I figure out my permanent living situation." 

"It's no big deal. My dad's business might have been at risk. And well, you can thank my parents for letting you stay here." I smile warmly. 

Turns out Helena wanted dad to merge some of his real estate with theirs to attract the attention off from their own hotel and property troubles right now.

 Dad said even if we hadn't had caught on to what she was doing he still wouldn't have merged with some of their properties.

 He didn't want that bad press and to be quite honest he and mom hate Obie's parents. 

"Obie, what about me?!" Westin shrieks realizing he is not invited.

 "You didn't help me get to the bottom of my mom's shit. Now did you?" Obie questions with a smirk.

 "No but that was because I was hanging with the boys, which is what last weekend was supposed to be about." Westin sighs with his hands raised for dramatic effect.

 I laugh at this.

 "Looks like I'm not only the best Bass child but the best Bass friend. Also, I'm not that lucky, since all of your cards are cut off, I'm assuming I'm paying." I chuckle.

 "Shit, yeah." Obie sighs as he runs a hand through his hair. 

"I'll pay you back once I have money. I swear." Obie announces. 

"No rush. I love playing sugar momma." I laugh.

 "Also, think about it Obs. You are always going on and on about the less fortunate maybe now you can be one of them and get a job!" I suggest with a grin. 

"You would look adorable in a McDonald's uniform." I continue. 

 "Alright, yeah. I'll see you at school Willow." He states getting up from his seat in fake annoyance. 

"Wait, are we not catching the same Lyft?" I question in confusion as they both walk out of the kitchen.

During lunch I go to sit at Declan's table. I have a proposal for him.

 "I have a proposal for you!" I grin as I take a seat. 

"You're asking for my hand in marriage, yet we haven't even had a date yet." Declan gasps in fake shock and confusion. 

 "Haha. Funny." I state, playfully rolling my eyes. 

"I'm being serious but first congratulates on placing top three in NYC Most Influential Teens. So proud. Now, my proposal actually has to do with this." I pause and he tells me to "continue."

 "Okay, well I think you should start an NYC version of your writing camp and I could do the illustrations for the books." He looks at me in bewilderment for a second.
