Sutton Diaz .

I was currently taking the curlers out of my hair listening to up that hill by Kate Bush me and mads were getting dressed .

"Hello" I said as I answered the phone

"Hey I miss you " I hear my sister say.

"Me too , so much but I have a major test tomorrow so I couldn't even fly home if I wanted too."

" I hate that"

" Me too , how was your day"?

" It was good just hung out with Wendy ,
Regina & mads how was your day? "

"Boring butttt Lyle sent me a spooky bouquet of flowers"

"That's so cute"

" I know"

"I miss you" I say again .

"I miss you too S.j "

"This is our first Halloween apart" I say .

"I know"

I stay silent trying to hold back tears but my sister knew me too well .

"Don't cry Sutton I'll be home soon besides it's Matteos first Halloween with our family have fun "

"Your right , me , mads & Erik are gunna take him trick or treating with Regina & Jace "

"I know he looks so cute in his Batman
costume"

"He does, what are you doing for the night?" I ask

" nothing much Murray invited me and cher to a get together we'll probably stop by for a minute and come home"

" same we'll probably go to Adams party"

" yeah you should since I can't"   I laugh.

We talk for awhile until we finally hang up.

We go downstairs where My mom is getting Matteo ready , we're not wearing our costumes until later , my mom took pictures of Matteo before we left , we went next door to get Erik by then Regina & Jace were here.

We walk up to a few houses with the boys until Matteo got sleepy , Jace wasn't so we went to a few more houses while Erik carried Matteo eventually we parted ways and me and Erik took Matteo home .

Erik and I sat on the couch with a sleeping Matteo while we sorted through his candy .

" he really enjoyed himself" I say .

"Yes he did I think he fell asleep when we were still outside"

"Thankyou for carrying him"

"No problem you know I love Matteo too"

"I can't believe I'm a big sister now I was

scared he wouldn't like me"

"Look at him he's sound asleep and when he wakes up he's gunna be looking for you he adores you "

"I adore him too"

"An older sibling is the most precious thing you can have , sometimes it's all you have"

" like you & Lyle"?

"Yeah"

We sat in silence for a minute until my my came to talk to us she made dinner and Halloween cookies we ate and I got dressed for Adams party .
