//Connor's POV//

"Just get in the car and close your eyes." I order Troye for the hundredth time. After he had complained that he didn't want to close his eyes. And then began to accuse that I could easily kill him as he would be vulnerable.

After I had assured him that I wouldn't kill him he had finally got into the car. God, this sixteen year old sometimes acted like a five year old. I still love him though. I shut the door behind him and helped put the groceries in the truck with Zoe and Alfie.

"Let's go!" I say after closing the trunk of the car. I opened the back seat of the SUV and made sure Troye's eyed are still closed, come to find out he had only one eye closed hoping I wouldn't notice. "Eyes closed!" He groans in response but obliges and covers his eyes with his hands.

I climb in with the bag in between my legs and shut the door. Zoe got into the drivers seat, Alfie in the passengers seat.

I take a deep breath before I place the blue gift bag, that says 'Happy Birthday' all over in different type of fonts, in the middle seat between Troye and me. "Okay. Open your eyes!"

As soon as his eyes snap open, Zoe, Alfie and I had planned to all shout 'Happy Birthday, Troye!' but none of us said it at the same time so it just sounded like a bunch of yelling.

Troye face had instantly broken into a smile. "Aw thank you guys. But I told you not to get me anything!" He elbows my stomach, not effecting me at all, still I pretend that it caused me pain by bending over holding the place he hit. "Oh be quite!" He laughs, not believing my act.

"And this is from Zoe and me." Alfie hands Troye a blue envelope. I already knew what was inside because we had collaborated on our gifts.

"Open ours first!" Zoe excitingly adds.

Troye is smiling widely with joy. He hadn't gotten a present in years and one of the first things I thought when I got my parents inheritance was 'I can get Troye a birthday present!'

Yes, I did get my parents money. When their lawyer, Andrew Lowe, contacted me and said he had news and asked if I could come by his office, I phoned Joey, a very close friend of mine that I met on my first day of school when I transferred, and asked if he could pick me up and drive me to see the lawyer. Andrew had explained that in my parents will, that when I turned seventeen, my current age, I had full entitlement to everything. The money, the car, the house!

I made the very wise decision of hiding everything from Kayla and Jacob. They had absolutely no idea about any of it. I put all the money into a hidden bank account with the help of Zoe who was eighteen so she could legally sign some papers. The car was held at Alfie's house for a few months, until today. And the house was almost another hour away from our current location so we were close. Thank God.

Did I mention that my parents had a lot of money? No? Well my parents had a lot of money! They had savings account for everything! They had an account that they used only to purchase food, another for bills (Water, Electricity, Car, etc.), another for retirement, my college savings (I am using that money for what they attended it for), then they had there just regular checking account. They were very organized.

Troye had finished ripping the envelope and out slid a fifty dollar iTunes gift card. His face had brightened up like the sun as he thanked them over and over again. Then exclaiming that it was way to much and they had spent way to much on him.

"Well you're keeping the gift card! Now open up Connor's gift!" Zoe laughed, pointing to the bag that still sat in the middle of the us.

He sighed, accepting that he would never win the fight, especially against Zoe. He pulled the white tissue out of the bag and stuck his hand in. Out he pulled the box that held the MacBook I had bought him. His eyes widened in astonishment. "Connah!" He practically yelled. "You didn't!"

"Oh but I did!" I smile lightly. "Don't you like it?" The reason I had decided to buy him a MacBook was because; 1, he was sixteen, I knew a MacBook would be an amazing gift. 2, it was the only way I knew how to make up for the past few gift-less birthdays.

"I do! I really do!" He assured. "But-" There's always a but... "There is absolutely no way I can accept this. Its way beyond expensive. You need to take it back."

"You said you liked it right?" I begin to state my case, knowing exactly how to get into his head.

"Yes, but-" I interrupt quickly.

"Well if you like it then you're keeping it."

"Bu-" He tries again.

"No." I look away. Sticking to my decision.

"Co-"

"Shh."

"Wha-"

"Don't even try." He groans in response.

"Thank you." He says then pushes the bag over and flings his arms around me. Hugging me tightly.

"You're welcome." I laugh lightly.

We are interrupted by a gagging sound from Alfie. I had almost forgotten that we weren't alone. "I ship it." I hear Zoe mutter before putting the key into the ignition.

Just like that, we are on the road again.

I edited this at four in the morning. Don't judge me!

I also changed the title for the story. I like this better then the last one.

Next chapter will be up by Monday!
