"Wait, Dad why aren’t you at work?" I stopped hugging Beth and looked at my dad.

"I took the day off to spend it with your mother. Speaking of spending the day with your mother we are going to be late." He said scooting her chair out and pecking her on the lips. Cole, Beth and I gave them an Ew as they headed out the door.

Well so much for staying home from school today to spend it with my mom.  .-.

Once I'm out the shower I enter my room and grab my necessities I need and get changed. I grab my sleeping with sirens hoodie and a pair of black skinny jeans with colorful socks and black high tops. Once I'm dressed I exit my room and head downstairs into the living room. I see Cole on the couch laying down eating grapes and I see Beth sitting on the love seat texting as usual. I plop down next to Beth and sigh.

"What are we going to do today?" I asked looking at Cole then Beth. Beth looked up from her phone and said "Well I should probably get dressed and Ryan just texted us our schedules I have to work at five thirty. When do you work?"

I took out my phone and looked at my Text from Ryan. “I work at six thirty tonight. I don't understand why he doesn't just give us the same shift. So what do we do till then? And what do we do with him" I said looking at Cole.

Cole looked up at Beth and I "wait you guys work together? And what do you mean what are you going to do with me? I can take care of myself."

Beth left to go get dressed so I'm guessing that means I have to answer his questions "Yes we work together. I don't care if you can take care of yourself I'm still not leaving you in my house by yourself."

"You guys are so weird. What don't you do together? And don't forget this is our house now." He said giving me a smirk sitting up.

"Whatever" I smiled and got up to get something to eat. As much as I don't need to eat I'm kind of hungry and I'd rather eat by myself rather than Beth shoving food in my mouth. I grabbed an apple and sat down at the table taking a bite. Man what am I going to do with my life I sighed. I continued to eat my apple until I heard someone coming down or going up the steps. I see Beth and Cole coming down. Beth was wearing a KISS tee-shirt, red skinny jeans, and black low top converse. Her black hair is wavy and her blue tips are shinning. Cole is wearing a black of mice & men shirt blue faded jeans with all black Vans. I smiled.

Gosh my friends we're good looking.

Beth came over to me and leaned down "Thank you beautiful." She smiled and walked to the refrigerator I turned around and gave her my confused "For what?"

She gave me an even bigger smile "For eating and being an amazing Friend" I smiled back at her.

"I want to go to the park!" Cole pouted.

"Uhm Dude you're eighteen and you want to go to the park?" Beth smirked at him

"Uhm yeah I'm eighteen and I want to go to the park. I'll race you guys." He got up from his chair and walked towards the door grabbing the football by the door and then he was gone.

Beth grabbed her phone and slid it in her back pocket shrugging her shoulders and headed towards the door. I grabbed my keys of the hook and followed them.  We walked down the street and rounded a couple of corners then we we're there.

I looked around to see the park looked exactly the same as it did a couple years ago just a little less magic. I walk towards the big grassy field where Beth and Cole were sitting. I plop down next to Cole and lay down. The sun felt good on my face. It's not too cold but it's not to hot. I close my eyes to soak it all in. All kinds of images flowed through my head.
