So I discovered I used the name Alex for two people in the story I.e Phoebe's pretty boy and Ted's friend. So I changed her name to Angel. But if you have any beautiful latin name you want me to give to them you can comment after reading, and I'm really sorry this chapter is coming late. I had exams for two weeks so there was no time to update. I'm also super grateful to those that have read and commented nicely. Thank you very much. Here you go!!!

"Theodore Raymond Grey!!!!!!!!".

Holy shit, Mum just yelled my full name. I think she heard me drive into the compound. I'm in some deep shit. Its five minutes to eleven and I just drove into the driveway and my dad is still in his driveway and his suit pants in front of his car. He went out?

"Where the hell have you been?", I can feel the invisible smoke coming out of his ears and nose, and I can see his red eyes and his hands in his pockets.

" Hey, dad what's up?".

"Answer the damn question. Do you know how worried everyone was. How could you go out without even telling anyone?".

" Dad, I'm sorry. I was with a friend of mine. I really needed to see her and she stays far away from here and ...",I see his frown slip a little but he tries to control himself and then he clears his throat. What was that about?.

"Dad, I'm 22 already you know?".

"Ted, that's not the point. You still live in this house so am sorry you still have to obey the rules around here". Whaaat.

I narrow my eyes at him a little.

"Get in the house Ted", he says and gesticulates towards the house with his chin.

"What?, I was just explaining myself".

"You heard me son, get into the house. NOW !!!, he slightly shouts I actually see a smile though.

"Okay okay. Fine. I don't know why you've got a damn smile on your face though". I say the last part so he doesn't hear me. I wish I could read his mind. Phoebe is the only one good at reading my dad's mind. Where is she though? He narrows his eyes at me but I turn and go into the house before he opens his mouth to say anything. My mom is standing beside the foyer table with folded hands and and she's tapping her feet.

"Mom, heey. What's up?"

" I need your car keys. Now".

" But Mum there's no need for that. I just...", I breathe out and try on the cutest face I can. Please let this work.

"Mum, I'm so sorry. Really really sorry", I move my hands and hold her arms. Her facial expression changes and she hugs me.

"Ohhh Teddy",she sigh in my ear."Mom really, I'm fine". She releases me and kisses me all over my face.
"Don't ever scare me like that again". She says and I just chuckle.
" We were just about to eat dinner they were almost shitting their pants but I kept my cool"Phoebe says in a low voice and shrugs.
"Watch your language young lady" my mom tells her. Phoebe just rolls her eyes as she goes to sit on her seat beside dad at the dinning table.
"I'm not really hungry I just ate where I was coming from"
"Just sit and eat something since you're home now". Dad says with a stern voice. Mom and Phoebe are talking their girl talk which each person serves themselves on the table.
"I found three apartments you could look at for your moving".My dad says while he cuts a piece of stake on his plate." Really, that's awesome". "Yeah, but I haven't checked any of them out because its going to be your own place and I didn't want to make a decision for you". Obviously.
"Thanks, Dad I really appreciate that. When can i go check them out?".
"Whenever you're ready just let me know so I'll contact the realtors for when you will be visiting."

"Honey, I just can't still believe you're moving out soon. Can't you just stay?" Mom says as she looks at me with those eyes that make me feel guilty and give into her. "Why so you can continue to torture me?", I ask her with a slight smile.  "I'm so gonna miss you aren't you Phoebe?". "Yeah whatever I need him to leave so I can breathe some fresh air", Phoebe says and I shake my head at her. She's gonna be the first person to call and beg me to stay at my place for a weekend.. The table is quiet for a while and all that can be heard are the cutlery hitting the plates. Gail must be at home now because I've not seen any sign of her this evening. I decide to interrupt the silence." I broke up with Chelsea". My mom gasps and my dad look up and looks sort of relieved. Really? Everybody really had something to say about her uhn. "Oh honey I'm  so sorry", mom says." I hope it wasn't what I said this morning"."Oh no. I planned on doing it way earlier there just hasn't been time"."I'm glad you decided to come to your senses" my dad say but i pretend not to hear that because replying him is just gonna start arguments and I'm really too tired for that this night. We continue talking while my mom keeps asking questions until  I finish my dinner and clear my plates. I'm on my way to my room when I tell them I'm tired and heading off to my room. When I hit my pillow, I remove my phone from my pocket and decide to text Angel.

Ted: Hey beautiful.

Angel: You're really scoring points for yourself :-D.

Ted: I just hit my pillow and decided to text to to see how you're doing before dozing off.

Angel: That's sweet. Thanks for checking in. I'm still at the bar. I've gotta be here till 12am before closing.

Ted: Are you gonna be okay and safe?:-(.

Angel: I'M going to be fine my cousins are here.

Ted: Alright. I'm going to bed now. Have a good night rest. :-*.

Angel: Alright Teddy good night.

Its weird that I texted someone I just met more that I've texted my ex girlfriend all week. Next thing I know I'm dreaming of two beautiful brown eyes in my sleep.
