(Back to Logans POV)

It was 5:34 PM now. I ended up staying the night at his house. Mom wasn't too happy about it but I'm sure she'll get over it. I've been playing basketball with Jack for what feels like ages now and god I'm exhausted.

"Hey, If I make this one, you gotta ask that hot chick out to the Graduation dance." He looked over at me.

"Aaliyah? Oh hell no, she wouldn't go for a guy like me."I looked at him in disbelief.

"Well you'll find out when you ask her." He threw the ball at the goal and made it.

"No. No, I'm not asking her."

"50 bucks if you ask." He grinned.

A few minutes of silence passed.

I sighed and said, "Alright, you got a deal."

I mean, 50 bucks is 50 bucks. No way I'm skipping out on that.

He then held out one of his hands. " C'mon dude, gotta lock it in, can't run away from this one." He smiled.

Damn he's smart.

I rolled my eyes at him and went to shake on it but before I could shake his hand, my phone started to ring.

I reached in my pocket and grabbed my phone to see who it was from. Aiden.

"Hang on, I gotta take this."

"Dude, are you serious right now." Jack said in a harsh tone.

"Yeah, now shut up- Hey, what's up?" I cut myself off as I answered the call.

"So, you have to come home." He said.

"Do I really have too though?" I sarcastically said in reply.

"Well, yeah. Oliver kinda was having a breakdown last night and I told him that we would have a picnic today, with you involved, and he will NOT stop bothering me about it." Aiden explained.

"Why was he crying?" I worriedly said.

"AIDEN HURRY, I WANNA HAVE THE PICNIC NOW!" I heard Oliver scream.

"I'll tell you when you get home. I gotta go, bye." He instantly hung up.

"What was that about?" Jack asked.

"Family stuff, I gotta go dude, see you tomorrow." I started to walk away and picked up my pace when Jack started to complain about the deal.

—---------------

It wasn't too long before I got home. I opened the door and saw Mom sitting in her chair.

"Hi honey, did you have fun at Jack's house?" She asked when she saw me walk in.

"Yeah, my arms and legs hurt though." I smiled at her.

"Hm, well Aiden said that he needs you for something."

"Yeah, he called me and told me, so I'm gonna see what he wants. I love you!" I said walking to Aiden's room.

"He's out back! Don't get into trouble, I love you too!" She called to me.

I looked out of the back door and saw Aiden and Oliver sitting on a picnic mat. Oliver seemed to be laughing as Aiden was just smiling at him. This is the first time they've got along with each other. I knew that they would get along one day.

Aiden saw me standing in the doorway and motioned me to come outside with them. Oliver turned around and called my name excitedly.

I opened the door and walked to them.
