"What are you two doing here at night?" Uncle Jude asked.
"I was just driving around and then Cole called me to pick him up." I said.
Yeah what I said was a lie but do I really want to tell him that the only reason I am here because I don't want to be around my stepfather after just coming back from the school fair.
"Cole is that true?" He asked.
Cole nodded yes as he was eating a sandwich that he just made two minutes ago.
"Where is aunt Chandler?" I questioned.
"I saw her at the fashion show talking to my mom and your mom was there as well." Cole said.
Of course she was and why am I acting surprised about this, they been friends before.
"It haven't end yet?" I asked.
"Every events end like at twelve or probably two in the morning so I left early and don't worry my mom knows that I left early." Cole said.
"Does your mom know where you are Sammy?" Uncle asks.
"No she doesn't but I know she will call me." I spoke.
"Okay and Cole stop eating from my fridge." He said.
"Sorry it is not my fault that I am still hungry." Cole said.
My phone buzzed and a text message popped up on the top of the screen so I click on it before replying back to it.
Erika: Hey do you want to know something?"
Me: Know what?
Erika: The hoodie that you gave me really does look cute on me and you probably smell good everyday.
I chuckled to myself because there is no way she just said that.
Me: You could probably look cute in any of my clothes but damn I didn't know I smelled that good to you.
Erika: I can't believe I said that.
Me: Nah I don't mind and besides I don't mind smelling good for you if you want that ;)
Erika: Sammy stop 😂
Me: Just kidding but anyway why are you up?
Erika: Couldn't sleep how about you?
Me: Just running some errands.
Erika: It is almost eleven pm?
Me: Yeah I know but I guess I need to do some things instead of doing it in the morning.
Lying is bad but do you think I would say something about you know what.
Erika: Okay then and are you free tomorrow?
Me:Yeah I am free tomorrow why?
Erika: Just wanted to know if you want to hang out?
Me: Yeah sure and also Erika?
Erika: Yeah?
Me: You should really smile more because you look really beautiful.
Erika: Thanks I actually never have anyone compliment me like that before.
Me: Well I guess it is the first time and you will keep hearing it from me no matter how cheesy it is.
Erika: I don't really like cheesy guys but you are really different from them
Me: I guess I am :)
"Who are you texting?" Cole asked.
Cole was looking behind me so I quickly put my phone away.
"Just a friend and also it is none of your business." I said.
"Okay I was just asking so calm down alright buddy." He said.
I sighed and rolled my eyes at him. "Where is uncle Jude?"
"He is his office because he had to work on some law stuffs."
"Okay."
Being in a family of law enforcement is kinda crazy but it is not like any future generations would follow into those footsteps unless they want.
"Are you going to college next year Sammy?"
"Yeah I don't know but I kinda want to succeed in my hockey career if I want that to happen in two years from now." I said.
I have been accepted in twenties colleges and some got me interested in but I feel like I want to stay in California.
"Oh yeah two years from now you would probably be playing in the NHL on whatever team you get drafted to."
"Yeah but what about you Cole?"
Cole laughed and then sighed. "I am not going to college and I don't give a shit about what people will say about that because it is my choice not theirs."
"Yeah I get that."
"I haven't told my parents about it and I feel like they would be more disappointed in me which I know they already are because of drinking and taking drugs that I have been doing."
"Just tell them at the right time and they will understand why you don't want to go to college."
"Yeah you are right Sammy and also if you were texting a friend, you wouldn't be smiling that much."
"I wasn't blushing Cole."
"Hey I never said you were."
He is lucky that I am not going to tell who the person I am talking to because he is going to fucking tease me about it like I do to him.
