Thank god it's Friday, school is not a fun place to be 45+ hours a week.
"Why can't the bell just ring" Tucker said starring at the clock.
We're in the last class of the day and everyone was extremely jittery to get out of this place.

"Hey when do you start softball" Tucker asked me.
"I think Thursday is our first practice" I told him
"Cool, wanna have a bonfire tonight?" He asked
"Sure" I laughed at his randomness
"Okay"
You could see him jittering in his seat,
"Tuck, calm down" I told him and put my hand on his knee.
"Sorry this bell just needs to r-" he was cut off my the bell ringing
I chuckled and we grabbed our stuff. He went to his locker and I went to mine, I put my stuff away and grabbed my bag.

I walked outside to wait for Chase and whoever else was coming with me.
I saw Chase coming with James, Tucker and Carley. Chase's new girlfriend, him and Sarah lasted 3 days.
"I win" Tucker said pecking my cheek
"I noticed"
We got in my car, Chase drove since he asked, he wanted to impress Carley.
"Hey you mind stopping and picking up Austin?" James asked
"Sure it's on our way"
"We don't have room for the twerp" I said joking.
"Well we'll make room, see?" Tucker said pulling me on his lap.
"Yeah I see" I rolled my eyes.
"Keep rolling your eyes maybe you'll find a brain back there" Tucker smirked.

Austin got in the car and said hi to everyone.
"Keep talking like that maybe you'll find yourself single" I smirked back
"Oh burn bro" James said and gave me a high-five.
"You don't have the guts to break up with me, you can't go 1 hour without kissing me" Tucker said
"Wanna bet" I asked
"Yeah, winner chooses prize" he said
We shook on it and pulled into our driveway. I got off of Tucker's lap and walked to the door, Chase opened the door and we all went in.

"I'll be right back" I said and went to my room.
I put my bag away and changed into Black leggings, my boots and a sweatshirt. I left my hair in a side fishtail and went back downstairs.
"Get a room" I heard Austin yell
Chase and Carley were practically eating each other's faces.
I sat next to Austin and he put his hand out, I rolled my eyes and put $5 in his hand.
"Thanks"
"What was that for" James asked
"We made a bet" I answered
"On what?"
"How long it takes for the sucking face to begin" Austin said getting on his phone.
"And I lost" I added

"What's up with you betting on everything" James Laughed
"I like bets,  either win something or I lose something" I explained
We all sat in silence for a bit till Tucker spoke up,
"So what do we wanna do" he asked
"Eat food" Austin answered and looked at me
"Go ahead piggy"
He got up and headed to the kitchen, there was noise coming from upstairs.
"Yeah I'm leaving" I said standing up
"Baby don't leave me here with these people" Austin ran out of the kitchen and jumped on my back.
"Hey that's my babe, chump" Tucker said pulling him off of my back.
"Let's go my babe" he said and picked me up bridal style.

He walked out to my car with James and Austin following behind. Tucker put me down, opened the door and I sat in the seat. He closed it and went to the drivers side, Austin and James got in the back seat.
"Hey you guys wanna come over, we're having a bonfire" Tucker asked them.
"Sure" James answered

We pulled in to Tucker's driveway and got out,
"My parents are on their anniversary vacation till next Friday" He told us
We got into the house and Tucker went straight to start a fire out back. I texted others to see if they wanted to come, after that I went up to Tucker's room.
"What's my baby up to" Tuck said wrapping his arms around my waist.
"Stealing your blanket" I told him
"Why? you have me as a blanket" he said leaning in to kiss me
"No mister I still have 1 minute left and I win" I smirked
"Can I just say you win and kiss you?"
"Noooo but I can kiss you"
He looked a bit confused,
"Times up"

I wrapped my arms around his neck and smashed my lips to his, he instantly kissed back. I pulled away, grabbed a blanket and ran out the door. I found James, Austin, Chase, Carley, Eric, Ethan and his girlfriend Mackenzie out by the fire. I sat in between James and Eric, Tucker came running, he was almost out the door when he ran into it.
"Oh yeah, I forgot I shut that door on my way out" I said and everyone started laughing.
"Ow" Tucker said and sat up.

I stood up and opened the door,
"You know the door does open" I smirked
"I know" he mumbled and rubbed his head,
"Come on" I stick my hand out to help him up, he grabbed it and pulled me on top of him. 
"You know, I only hit the door so I could kiss you" he whispered
"Tuck we all know you ran into it because you didn't see it" I chuckled "I know" he mumbled again
"Get a Room!" Austin yelled
"We do it just has a sliding door thats open" Tuck yelled back
"That was the lamest comeback ever but I don't know how to respond to it"  Austin said
I chuckled and the door bell rang,
"I better get it, don't want you running into another door now do we?" I stood up
"I won't run into another door jeez" he said and stood up

I opened the door and it was Jackson, his girlfriend Vanessa and Wesley.
"Come in, the others are out back" I told them.
"Race ya" Tucker said
"Okay"
"Ready go"
I was going to go but I ended up not going, and and I'm glad I didn't. Tucker slipped on the blanket I left on the floor.
"Oh my gosh that was better than the door" I said laughing so much I fell to the ground
"You just can't get a break can you Tucker" James asked walking in
I laughed even more.
"It's Jackie's fault, both times. She's the one that shut the door and put the blanket here"

"Actually you're blind with the door thing and that blanket wouldn't of been there is it wasn't for you. you're the one that pulled me down on the ground which caused me to drop it" I said in a matter of fact tone.
"I love you" Tucker said looking up at me
"I love you too" I said and helped him up
