Double update! Sorry for the long wait, lots of problems were happening with the app, and my life. But I'm going to try and get a normal schedule <3

"Riles! Riles!" Maya jumped on me. "What!" I screamed. "We're going to a party Friday. There are juniors planning it, and high schoolers will be there." Maya said. "Don't worry, you can borrow my clothes." She said. I laughed. "Okay. I'll ask my parents." I sighed. "Ask him, ask him!" Maya screamed. "Ask me what!" My dad screamed. "Can I go to a party on Friday?" Maya asked in her 'Riley' voice. "Sure, will there be seniors? Alcohol? Drugs?" Maya shook her head. "Then yes, and she needs to be back by midnight." My dad said softly.

After sitting down in our desks, I asked her, "Why did you lie?" She rolled her eyes. "Where there's seniors, there's illegal things. Duh." She whispered back to me. "Shut up now!" I whispered yelled as my dad started the lesson.

"Shoot! My coworker is sick and needs me to fill in for them." Mom said during dinner. "What night?" My dad asked. "Tomorrow through Friday." She said. "No! My party is Friday, I can't watch Auggie." I yelled. "So am I just a toy? You watch me when you're bored?" He said. I gave him a 'you know what I mean so shut up' look. He zipped his lips.

"I know. I'll see if maybe Josh can watch you or take you out. Okay Augs?" Mom wrapped her arm Auggie. He violently nodded, then got up, put his plate in the sink and went to his room. I followed the same routine, except moving my head like crazy.

"I'm literally so excited. Tomorrow is gonna be dope." Zay said. "You boys got invited to?" Maya asked. Lucas and Zay nodded and Maya high-fives them. "Ten bucks Smarkle weren't invited?" She held her palm out to Zay. He shook it. "What do you think Riley?" Lucas asked me. I readjusted myself in my seat. I looked around to Maya's mom. I shrugged. "You are pretty nervous, aren't you?" Lucas laughed. I nodded. "I need to go soon. I'm watching Auggie. Let's finish our homework real quick." I said.

I walked into Auggie's room with two mac 'n cheese cups. "Yay!" Auggie yelled. We sat down on the edge of his bed and started eating. "Don't tell mom and dad that we are eating in here, okay?" I whispered. "Okay." He whispered back. "Can we play astronaut after this?" He asked. "Sure." I said. "How's your wife?" I asked him. "Oh Ava? She's fine. How's your boyfriend?" He said. "Good." I felt my face burn. "Why do you look like a tomato?" Auggie asked. I just tickled him. "I was just asking a question!" He screamed through laughter.

"Oh, dad, by the way, I'm gonna go home and stay the night at Maya's, okay?" I asked before I sat down in my desk. "What? Since when?" He asked. "Katy and Shawn already said yes." I mumbled. "Okay." My dad said reluctantly.

I sat down in my seat. "Safe." She gave me the thumbs up. "I can't wait." She said. "This party is gonna be sick." Zay said.
