We arrived at home, giggling as we walk in the door. "Bye Mom!" Veronica yells out, waving at her mother as she drives away. "Welcome back, kiddos. " dad says, watching a random movie in the living room, sipping on some beer.

"Hey dad, wheres momma?" I ask, where else would she be if she's almost 8 months pregnant which she has to stay at home due to the chances of early birth.

The doctors had told her awhile ago that the baby might come sooner, and told her not worry because some babies come out healthy at 8 months. But I'm still worried for my mother. Her baby bump is already big enough. Looks like she can burst any day now. "Upstairs, sleepin." He says.

"Okay.. Well where's Philip?.." I ask, once again. Before dad could speak, Philip popped his head up from dads chest..well tries atleast as he's probably super tired from playing with dad. "Aww, he must be tired out. " I say. "Yup." Dad agrees, nodding his head and taking a little sip of his beer. "Okay, v cmon." I smile and gesture her upstairs.

I close the door behind me, slowly as to not wake mom up and pain her once again by getting up. We both set down our bags by my closet. "Wow, we are not cheap. " Verionca exhales and as she mumbles. "You can say that. " I mumble also as I shrug. "Nails?" I ask, removing my eyes away from the bags to Veronica. "Mm.. sure!

" V says as she walks to my bed. "What colors? There's.. blue, red, teal, dark red, dark blue, white, light purple, purple andddd black." I ask as I go to my shelf full of some nail polishes, pulling out colors. " Veronica smiles and points to dark red. I shrug and smile as I walk over to give her the nail polish.

I grab my own dark red polish as I put away the other nail polishes and grab two peices of cardboards from the shelf. I walk over and cross my legs on the bed as Veronica does the same.

"Sooo.. How do you like it here in Hawkins so far? " Veronica asks as she twists open the polish. "I like it so far, you can go around and actually feel like home. " I say, shrugging while I twist open my nail polish. "Good. Good. " Veronica says, applying on her nail polish. "Does Brooklyn seem to like me? " I ask. "Why ask?" Veronica straightens her back and looks up at me from her nails with a weird grin on her face.

"Uh.. Just wondering?" I shake my head, smiling. "She does, she thinks you're.. super pretty and she thinks your really sweet and silly."
Veronica explains. I nod and smile.

"Brooklyn is uhm.. into girls. She's admitted it to me by telling me her love for boobs when she was 12. I wasn't really in shock. I mean, you can see the way she looks at girls or I mean woman.

It's totally noticeable but oddly understandable." Veronica nods as she speaks. We both giggle and shake our heads. "Wow, me too." I stare at my nails in shock. I've never really met someone who'd felt the same.

I mean men are hot and I guess sexy but I always had a thing for girls. I love men and woman. But I feel more safe around woman.

I've never had a relationship with a girl yet or whatever.. But I've had 4 with men. Seems like not many girls like other girls around there. Veronica gasps. "Really!? " Veronica sits up finishing her left hand. "Yeah.. " I giggle. "Sorry, I mean I like men and woman." I shake my head and smile at Veronica. "Jesus, Love you already." Veronica Shakes her head as she hugs me. I giggle and rub her back. She pulls back and finishes up her right hand now. "How long? " she asks. "Oh gosh I'm 17 so.. About 4 years." I say. Veronica smiles. I think about things as I do my nails, interested in what Brooklyn.. likes.

We finished up our nails, soon walking down stairs to make something to eat. "Dinner!? " I yell out and ask dad. "Yeah sure, make whatever. " Dad stretches out on the couch as Philip sleeps peacefully on his chest.

"kay! What sounds good? " I ask Veronica as I open up the fridge and turn to look at her. "Spaghetti? " she shrugs. I nod my head and walk over to the lower cabinets as I point for where the noodles are. I open up the cabinet full of pots and take one out.

I begin to cook for my family with Veronica as we gossip and sing random songs to each other while we also giggle on how bad we sound.
