The next day with Claira...

"Good morning!" she cheerfully greeted Kana as she ran down the stairs with Champ.

"Careful on the stairs." she said.

"Sorry." 

"So hey...i think you should stop seeing Quentin for a while." Kana suddenly said.

"What do you mean? why?" Claira stopped playing with Champ and looked at her big sister.

"Well, Quinn told me he brought you to a bar last night and made you drink alcohol."

"You got it all wrong, his friend wanted me to drink one but i refused, so basically i didn't drink alcohol."

"But you still have to stay away from him, he's not much of a good influence on you, just stick to Quinn, okay?" she said.

"But...O-Okay." Claira nodded.

"Go get ready, Quinn's gonna be here any minute to pick you up."

"Okay." Claira ran upstairs to take a shower. 

Few minutes later, Quinn arrived and went upstairs to Claira's room. When he opened the door, he caught Claira wrapped in her bath towel.

"Q-Quinn!" 

"Oh, Sorry about that." Quinn laughed.

"Try knocking next time."

"Well try locking your door next time, what if i was a stranger trying to rob this house?" Quinn said.

"I know, i'll lock it next time, now would you go outside for a minute?" 

"I'll be inside your bathroom." 

"Okay." Claira smiled then Quinn kissed her forehead.

"Call me when you're done."

"I will." Then Quinn went in Claira's bathroom and waited until she was done putting on clothes. When she called Quinn, He went out of the bathroom and kissed Claira's on her lips while wrapping his arms around her waist.

"You ready?" Quinn asked her.

"Yeah." she nodded.

"Alright, I'll get your bags, you go ahead and get inside the car."

"I thought your car is still broken." 

"It is, i borrowed dad's car so i can pick you up." 

"Oooh." she nodded and went downstairs to say goodbye to Kana and Champ then went inside the car with Quinn. 

While they were on their way to the camp site where the reunion was going to be held, Quinn noticed Claira wasn't acting right.

"What's wrong?" Quinn asked.

"Kana doesn't want me to hang out with Quentin anymore." 

"What did she say?" he took a short glance at Claira as he was watching the road.

"She said that he was a bad influence on me, because of what you said to her."

"I'm sorry but it's true."

"No, He wasn't the one who made me drink the alcohol it's his friend and I didn't even drank one." 

"I'm sorry, but i also think that he's a bad influence on you. So just stay away from him for a while." 

"Is that what you told Ericka when you were still dating her?" Claira asked. 

"What? how did you know about Ericka and I?"
