Tyler pulls into a parking spot right in front of the Joseph house in his old pale, pastel pink car. The tall, dark-haired, 17-year-old boy makes his way up the driveway, holding a full, brown paper bag. He throws the door open and hangs his keys on a hook by the entrance.
"Zack! Jay! I got the Taco Bell!" Tyler calls his two brother's.
He unwraps his Cheesy Gordita Crunch as the other two clomp down the stairs. Zack and Jay burst into the kitchen, pushing past each either.
"Calm down, dorks!" Tyler teases, giggling.
The other two finally join Tyler at the counter with their food.
"Oh, Ty, did you finish your school work?" Zack asks Tyler with a full mouth.
"Uh...yeah. I think I'm gonna go down to the forest and...I don't know...climb trees," the older boy replies after swallowing, unlike his brother.
"Do you like meet someone when you go there? It seems like you're there a lot," Jay adds.
Tyler pauses, trying to determine whether or not he should tell his brothers about the purple-haired boy...Well, he wasn't really 'meeting' the boy, right? He doesn't know the boy's name and he can't even really be sure that the boy is ever actually...there. Tyler decides against telling Zack and Jay.
"No, I just like climbing trees, I guess," Tyler finally answers.
