july sixteenth 2023

This Day had been a lazy one for everyone, most of the teens were tired out from all the rollercoasters yesterday, they had also accidentally been up until almost 4 in the morning playing board games with noah

so now it was eight o'clock at night, and the day had withered away slowly. kylie had just finished another episode of criminal minds and was starting to get bored of it.

thankfully a knock on her door, gave her an excuse to stop watching criminal minds for the time being. "come in !" kylie called out

nelson was on the other side of the door, which he usually was. "we're all bored and wanted to see if you'd come hang out with us, niles is live on tiktok" nelson told her

kylie shrugged, "ill come hang out" she agreed, moving her laptop to the nightstand next to her and getting out of her bed.

she followed nelson out to the living room where she saw luke and niles jumping on the couch.

"woah ! what is going on out here ?" kylie put on her mom voice, making both teens stop jumping and fall into a sitting position again. "thank you" she smiled and took a seat with them

she stuck her head in frame, saying a small hello to the live, making the comments flood in.

luke had read a comment that he felt was necessary to repeat out loud, "are kylie and nelson dating ? hmm, I don't know, are they ?" he asked, raising his eyebrows with a smirk

kylie sent him a 'im gonna kill you' look with her eyes before turning back to the live to answer the question, "no, we are not !" she told the comments

nelson had climbed onto the couch so he sat on top of the back rest part, "not yet, atleast" he mumbled to himself, though niles still heard him

niles turned instantly, cupping his hand around his ear. "what was that ?" he asked nelson to repeat his sentence.

"I didn't say anything" nelson shrugged, though the redness on the tips of his ears said otherwise. he scratched the back of his neck awkwardly as everyone continued to read comments

as a small silence fell over, noises from downstairs could be heard, yelling noises. kylie shared a glance with luke who was thinking the same thing as her

luke scratched his nose, "um guys I think we better get off, sorry, bye !" he quickly pressed the button to end the live

they all listened for the yelling downstairs, double checking if they had stopped. "do you think they stopped already ?" niles asked

kylie shrugged, continuing to listen for some yelling. it did stop for a minute before picking right back up again at the same volume

noah was lucky, he had made some friends and was down at the basketball courts so he didnt have to listen to this

"lets do something fun" nelson said as he climbed from his seat on the top of the couch and sat next to kylie on the couch

everyone glanced over at him, assuming he already had the 'something fun' planned out. nelson looked back at them, confused.

kylie asked, "do you have this 'something fun' in your brain already or are you thinking ?"

nelson furrowed his brows, "why do i have to pick it ?!" he questioned, wrapping his arm around kylies shoulders making her smile to herself

the all fell into a hushed quiet, trying to think of something fun to do to drown out the yelling from downstairs

kylie wondered if her parents could here it from the other side of the wall thats how loud it was. they probably could, but her dad was most likely asleep already while her mom scrolled on facebook
