"Last year was great, however if you were here, it would have been wayyyyy better!" Jacob sniggered putting the PS4 controller down, from playing FIFA20, to drink the cold, frosted, bottle of beer.
"Now that you know what happened in our lives, can you tell us more about yours?" Adrian curiously interrogated but his eyes still fixed on the game.
"Trust me you wouldn't want to know more." Wyatt replied in a drowsy voice.
"Wyatt, do you know the point of these meetings?" Adrian was going to start nagging.
Then there was long silence.
Jacob stood up, and broke the silence "Isn't it your birthday in a few days?"
"Yeah." Wyatt replied scratching his head.
"Well? You're Wyatt Taylor, aren't you hosting a party, as it is your eighteenth?" Jacob gestured his hands at him.
"Plus you should make it bigger, to celebrate that you're back in school!" AJ added.
"Also, because this is our senior year, and we should celebrate that!" Adrian finally added.

The boys were in the common room, doing their own stuff. Adrian was hacking a device for a fellow student to see if her boyfriend was cheating on her, while the others were planning on Wyatt's big party coming soon.
"That will be fifty dollars." Adrian waved his hand at the young blonde.
"But you said he wasn't cheating." The girl's face suddenly went confused.
"Still, the payment has to be done." Adrian was strict on his business.
Adrian started hacking when he was 12, and decided he should charge people when everyone came to him to solve their issues. So now he hacks into anything for a price.
"Fine." The girl took out her pink, Gucci purse and gave fifty dollars to Adrian.
"Thank you." He snatched the money away from her.
"My God, Adrian. Why so moody?" Wyatt pointed out.
"My father, he is just getting on my nerves lately. I just wish my father was more like yours." Adrian got his phone out to show Wyatt the messages.
"He is forcing me to come to the company meetings, he said if I don't then he will start to take away my tech." Adrian loved his tech more than anything, so this was no joke to him.
"He can't just blackmail you." Wyatt took the phone of his phone and read the rest of the messages.
"Wow. So did you go to the meetings?" Wyatt asked eagerly.
"Yeah, obviously. If I don't go, they might even disown me, who even knows." Adrian took his phone back and shoved it into his pocket.
"Babes, where were you yesterday?" Courtney came walking into the common, with her best friend, Violet, although the relationship seemed one way as Violet was obsessed with Courtney as she acted as if she was Courtney's assistant, servant, sidekick etc.
"I texted you to meet up after practice, and you totally ditched me." She stood in front of Jacob angrily.
Jacob took a deep breath and said "Why are you soo clingy lately?" He walked away from her and sat on the couch.
Courtney's face was disgusted, and Violet took a long and loud sip of her Starbucks pumpkin spice latte as her eyes widened.
"Shut up Violet!" Courtney shouted at Violet and stormed off.
Violet stayed behind and turned to Jacob"JP, if you want to break up with her, just tell her, she went bat-sh*t crazy yesterday, and I couldn't sleep because of her, and I have to take double the amount of coffee that I usually take." Violet said quickly and scurried off.
"Doesn't she love drinking coffee?" AJ sarcastically laughed.
"I remember when you two were the high school sweet hearts. Whatever happened now?" Wyatt asked Jacob.
