"Harry just set the table!" I said.
Moms boyfriend is coming over and I am trying to have everything perfect.
"I already did that!"
"Go change!"
"What's wrong with being in my pajamas!?"
"You don't meet your moms boyfriend shirtless and in ninja turtle pants!" I yelled.
"Women!" He said.
I scuffed and he walked upstairs.
I heard the door open and took the chicken out of the oven and burnt my hand.
"OW!!"
I screamed and started to cry.
"Carter!?" Mom yelled running in.
She saw me and ran to me.
"What happened? Oh my god Carter."
"What happened!?" Gemma yelled.
"I'm fine." I lied.
My hand stung and it was purple.
"When is he coming?" I asked changing the subject.
I wanted tonight to be on mom. Not on me.
"Let me see your hand."
I sighed.
The doorbell rang.
"Go answer it." I said.
"But your hand-"
"Mom I'm fine. Don't worry about me. Go." I said.
She left and I sighed in pain.
"Are you okay?" Gemma asked.
I got ice and put it on my hand.
"Okay. Now I'm fine."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes!"
"Girls. This is Robin." She said holding his hand.
They looked so cute together.
I smiled.
"I'm Carter." I said shaking his hand.
Not the burnt one.
"I'm Gemma."
"Where's Harry?" Mom asked.
Harry came in.
He was wearing his jack wills hoodie and sweats.
Oh well. Better than the ninja turtles.
"So! You're Robin. The guy my mums been sneaking around with." Harry said.
"Harry." Mom said.
"That's me!" He said.
"Dinners ready." I said.
They sat down and I placed the chicken on the table.
Harry asked many questions.
It started to get awkward.
"So...do you like kids?" He asked.
"Love them." Robin replied.
"That's a good answer." Harry said.
I smiled.
The doorbell rang.
"Who's at the door?" Mom asked.
"I was asked if I can watch Baby Lux for the month." Harry said.
"Who's baby Lux?" I asked.
"Our hairstylist baby. She's the cutest thing ever."
He opened up the door and a lady was there holding a baby.
"Hey Harry."
"Hi Lou."
"Thanks for doing this."
"No problem. Anything."
"Harry!" Lux said.
He laughed and picked her up.
"Hey. I want you to meet someone. This is Carter."
"Hi Carter."
"Hi!"
Harry tickled her and she wouldn't stop laughing which made me laugh.
She ran to me and hid behind me.
"Carter hide me!" She said.
"Here comes the tickle monster!" He said.
He tickles both of us and he gasped.
"Carter are you ticklish?" He asked.
"No." I lied.
He tickled me and I laughed so much my sides hurt.
"Hey. You guys don't mind if Robin stays for a while do you?" Mom asked.
"In the guest room right?" Harry asked.
I slapped his arm.
"I don't mind."
She smiled and walked back into the kitchen and Harry looked at me.
"What? I liked the guy."
