Jeremy is sitting at a table, doing homework

Jeremy is sitting at a table, doing homework. Nearby, Tyler is shooting pool while Matt cleans a table and talks to Tyler and Kaeden, who's waiting on Bonnie, as they agreed to meet here for dinner before heading to his place for a movie.

"Ten kegs? You know how much damage we could do with ten kegs? Duke's got it all hooked up."

Kaeden and Matt rolled their eyes as the latter said. "Duke's a douche."

"An asshole is more like it." Kaeden preferred that term rather than douche.

"Yeah, an asshole with ten kegs. Aka, my new best friend."

Kaeden scoffs at Tyler. "Boy please. Duke ain't your best friend. A best friend is someone who knows you too long. He don't know you like I do. And he's best friends with Ryan."

Tyler and Matt know the history between Kaeden and Ryan. They used to be friends. Would have been best friends if it weren't for someone starting a rumour about his dad being a dirty racist cop. And Ryan believes Kaeden made that rumour up, even though Kaeden made it clear that he didn't. Nor did he needed to start that rumour because someone else did. Yet even then, Kaeden can't deny that. "Damn it. Sorry man. I didn't know. If he's there, I'm gonna bail." Kaeden nods at Ty for understanding. "Still got that movie date night with Bonnie?"

"Yeah. She was supposed to meet me here for dinner. But... she ain't here. Weird." Kaeden knows it ain't like Bonnie to miss out. Something doesn't feel right. An uneasy feeling washed over him.

"You two are lucky you know?" Matt said to him. "Hopefully she doesn't..."

"Don't Matt." Kaeden stopped him right there. "Don't even think about comparing Bonnie to Elena, whom I just know you're still not over."

"I am over her!" Kaeden gave him that look. And it's the look that says that he knows Matt is lying.

"Thought so. Have you heard from your sister yet?" Kaeden asked, catching Jeremy's attention.

"No. She hasn't called." Matt sadly replied.

"Who knows Matt? Maybe she'll come back. But hopefully as a different person then she was a few months back." Kaeden, as stated before, may not like Vicki as much, but she's Matt's sister and thus he won't say anything to upset him much.

Jeremy, after hearing that, scoffs because he finds it hard to believe that he ever gave a damn about Vicki or tried to help her.

If only Jeremy knew how wrong he was as his scoff didn't go unnoticed as Kaeden heard it and he glared at the young boy. "If you got something to say, Gilbert, speak the fuck up."

"I don't need to, Chadwick." Jeremy coolly replied.

"Hm." Kaeden turns to Matt who was shaking his head at him.
