"OH CMON, Kate! Brady won't mind if you come along, I promise. I don't want to abandon you here alone." Lauren begs, and I shrug hesitantly.

"I dunno, Laur... I don't really want to third wheel you two." I mumble, and she grabs my wrist and pulls me to the car anyway.

"I don't care! It won't feel like third wheeling, I promise. It'll be fun! I wanna hang out with you." She seems like she's trying to be genuine, so I give in and get into the car.

She smiles and gets into the passengers seat, and she types Brady's address into the GPS.

As we drive she talks about the next project she's casted in, which unfortunately doesn't have brady in the cast. Her show that she filmed before, The Kids Of West Bank High airs in a few weeks and she's super excited. Thankfully they've already completed most press and won't be too busy most of the summer.

We arrive at brady's and i park the car in their driveway, apparently his parents aren't home right now and are out, but they'll be back later.

Lauren leads me up to Brady's room, and I guess Brady is currently playing fortnite because he's on a game screaming into his mic at someone.

"Aiden! Aiden you gotta— damnit!" He shouts, and Lauren seems to be questioning his actions.

"Noony?" She says softly, and he spins his chair around at the sound of her voice.

"Sweetheart, hi!" He smiles, and he looks to me for a second. "Oh, hey Kate. I didn't know you were coming."

Of course he didn't.

"Yeah, uh... last minute decision on Lauren's part. She basically made me come." I explain, and he nods.

"Yeah, that's cool. You can do whatever, I'm sure you don't wanna third wheel Lauren and I." Brady shrugs, and Lauren narrows her eyes.

I knew I'd feel like I was third wheeling.

Lauren and I watch brady game for a little while... mostly just Lauren, who seems into it, but I'm spacing out for the most part.

"I'm gonna get a snack." I mumble as I walk out, and Lauren nods.

I walk down to their kitchen, not really sure where anything is, so I spend a while looking. I finally find some chocolate chip cookies, and I grab two before heading back up to brady's room, thinking Lauren might want one.
