we found our way to the restaurant my mother assigned us too. which i had to get my brothers help to find out where it was, we still made it.

honestly, this is still so stupid to me, i have to get through finneas just to speak to her. texting, or calling, isn't answered unless i get finneas to mention it to her for me.

childish, i can't stand that bull shit.

anyways, i try not to let that get in the way of my night. i decided to forget about my family drama, and rather interpreting it as if me and scarlett are here alone on a date.

as soon as we walked into the restaurant, i saw them from a distance and walked towards the table with scarlett, as my arm was wrapped around her waist.

before we sat down, she whispered in my ear, " pretend it's only us here, okay?", i nodded in satisfaction, feeling as if she read my mind effortlessly.

you could tell from my body language, i was nervous. also giving off the complete opposite expression of confidence i usually have.

looking at my mother, she stared me and scarlett down cocking an eye brow. as she over analyzed us indicating she wanted an introduction before we sat down.

her making me more weak, rather than nervous, i spoke to introduce us, " hey mother, this is scarlett, my girlfriend we've been together for four years now."

"hey scarlett, i'm billies mother gwen, but i'm pretty sure you already know that", she said with a chuckle, as we pulled out our seats to sit down.

as we sat in our chairs, we also said hey to everyone else that was already sat at the table, finneas, claudia, and mercadezs.

they all gave us a warm hey back, smiling returning back to their conversations as we waited for the waitress.

ten minutes had passed, and me and scarlett had our own private conversation, before my sister decided to talk to us.

"soooo billie", she said, looking over at me and scarlett across the table after her conversation with our mother.

"yes?", i replied back, knowing she was probably gonna say some slick shit the way her and mom were giggling to one another beforehand.

" why haven't you told us about scarlett after four years? i know that probably makes her feel unseen", as she said the last part, looking over at scarlett with a over dramatic face of consideration.

knowing she did not give one fuck about her or our relationship, she simply just had to start some shit up.

finneas, stopping his conversation with claudia and looking over at mercadezs with a dissapointed face, knowing where this was going.

along with my mother nodding her head with a cocky smile, they know i knew where this was going honestly. they were tryna manipulate me into thinking i was the villan like they always do.
