Oblivious!

Back To The Adams House!

Skylar's POV           2 1/5 weeks since thanksgiving (x-mas break)

"S come on! The door is closing in ten, and we still have to get there!" I look around the dorm once more before heading out of the room, suitcase in hand. "Let's go!" Lils says. I nod and we start running towards the eating hall, once we get there, we head through the door and onto the black moving thing-i-ma-jig. Riley, Del, Matt, Sam, Kyle and Ryan are also coming with us to the Adams house. The black thing starts moving, and soon we are out of the cabin and waiting with the rest of our group for the car. A limo pulls up and Mum hops out of the car. 

"Why did you bring a limo?" I ask. 

"I thought that all of you would like to sit together and the next best choice would have been a school bus." We all nod in understanding and get in the limo. I grab Lily's hand so that we have no choice but to sit next to each other. I then find Riley and sit next to her. I don't even glance in Ryan's direction. Since the dance, we have only said two words to each other a day. Hello and goodbye. Thats if we even see each other. I've been ignoring him as best as I can, even though the other girls want me to go talk to him. Suddenly, Riley moves so that there is only one seat left next to me, and Ryan is the one standing up. I look at Lily, my eyes pleading, but she just shakes her head. I look over to Del, but she just smirks at me in response. Ryan sits down hesitantly next to us, and I see mum glance at us and then towards the rest of the group, but they just shake their heads. "Let's go around and say our names so that I know who's who! I'm Mrs. Adams, but don't call me that and call me Amanda!" I decide to start.

"I'm Skylar!" They all shake their heads.

"Lily." Mum nods approvingly. 

"Riley."

"Del." 

"Matt."

"Sam."

"Kyle."

"Ryan" 

 "Mum?" I ask her after an hour. She turns toward me. "Can Lily stay the summer?" Lily not so subtly punches me in the leg. Hard. 

"Of course!" I rub my leg where Lils punched me, and I can feel Ryan's worried gaze on me, but I refuse to look up. Lils takes out her phone and starts texting somebody. I nudge her, but she just scoots over. I narrow my eyes at her as everybody else's phones ring, but Ryan's and mine, even Mums. Another hour later, and the car stops. Everybody rushes out of the car at once, knocking me and Ryan over every time one of us gets up. The door closes behind them and we hear the lock click. I go over to the door and try to open it, but it doesn't work. I go over to all of the windows, but those are locked as well. 

"Once you guys talk it out, you are allowed to come out!" Lily's voice sounds from outside. I'm trapped. Not again, this can't happen. I slide onto one of the couches and start rocking back and forth. "Oh and Ryan?" 

"Ya?"

"Sky's claustrophobic, so you best hurry it up!" Ryan takes one glance at me and quickly comes over. I try to push him off, but he just continues pulling me closer and then tightening his grip. I breathe in his sent and relax a bit more. 

"We'll be okay!" I look at him.

"I'm sorry!" We both say at the same time. "I shouldn't have yelled at you for a stupid reason!" We both say again. He points at me to go first. 

"I shouldn't have had you find out by Lils and told you myself, I also shouldn't have kept the yelling match going and then avoided you like the plague!" He chuckles at me, but stops when I look at him. 

"I shouldn't have freaked out like I did, and listen to your reasoning." I crack up laughing. "What?" 

"We - laugh - sound - laugh - like - laugh - a - laugh - married - laugh - couple!!" He cracks up laughing with me. I go over to the door again and bang on it. "Lily let us out! We worked it out like a old married couple!" The door unlocks and swings open. "Is this what you were texting everybody about?" She smiles at me sheepishly. "Lets head in!" Before I can take another step, I am picked up in somebody's arms. I look over to see Sam pick up Lily and we head in. "Ryan, you can put me down now!" 

"Nope, direct orders!" Oh no. He laughs at my face as I try to get out of his arms. He sets me down in my chair at the table and Sam sets Lily down next to me. I start to stand up, but Ryan comes over and sits on my lap. "If you thought that we were bad at school, you won't even know what hit you." I scowl at him, but change my face as mum comes in. I look at her hands and see plates full to the top. She chuckles at us. 

"Glad to see that you two are talking again! Now boys, can you leave?" They both shake there heads no. "I wasn't asking so scram!" I purse my lips to keep myself from laughing at her choice of words. The boys finally leave the room and Mum places the plates in front of us. My eyes go wide at the amount of food. "Now, you two will be sitting here until you finish your plates and there is more if you would like some more." I take my sandwich and take a small bite of it. "It wouldn't have been as much if you had eaten all your meals again when you said that you would." I look at Lily and know that she didn't tell her about that part. "The boys told me." I scowl at the plate of food in front of me. 

*30 minutes later*

I finally finished the food at the same time Lily did. We did put it off at first to see if Mum would wait until we were done, she did. I push the plate away, not even sure if I can stand up. I start to stand up but, "Skylar Brown, sit your butt back in that chair! Same with you Lily Mayberry. Sam and Ryan come in here please!" The door bangs open and Ryan comes over and stands behind my chair while Sam stands behind Lily. "I don't want this happening again! For this entire vacation, I will give you a plate full of food and then sit with you at the table until you finish off the entire plate. If it does happen again, you won't be able to wait until there is a vacation, but come home right away. Boys, if this does happen again, I would like to know. I would also like for you boys to make sure that they do eat, because I don't trust them not to! Understood!" Lily and I both mumble ya's but the boys full out scream yes... I turn around and stick my tongue out at them, earning a eye roll from them.
