"Eeemmmaaaaaaa!!!!" The girls came rushing toward me as we drove up to the house causing me to chuckle.

"Hey there!" I hugged each of them. "Good to sed you two again!" Allie and Jazzy also got a kiss on their cheek from me. The girls were now fifteen and on their way to becoming adults. It was crazy how much they had changed and developed into teenagers.

"Where's Jaxon? And Jeremy?" I wondered.

"They're at school. Jaxon has a hockey match today." Allie informed me.

"Oh, okay. Too bad we can't watch and cheer him on." I smiled.

"Well it wouldn't be enough anyways. There's only one person he wants cheering on from. Everyone else is not good enough." Jazzy stated with her arms crossed in front of her body. Oh boy! She was majorly pissed. However I couldn't quite decipher if she was mad at Jaxon for only wanting Justin to cheer him on or mad at Justin for never showing up and causing a strain on this whole family. Whatever. I shot her a tightlipped smile.

"Okay so are we ready to go?" Chelsey asked. The three of us nodded.

"Do you have everything you need?"

"Yes mom." Allie rolled her eyes and wandered off toward the cayenne with Jazzy trailing behind.

"Okay so you guys wanna ride with me then?" They nodded eagerly.

"Alright then I'm gonna take the ladies." Chelsey added. "See you there."

Everyone got in and we drove off toward the mall. "So how is everyone?" I asked. "Any news? How's school? Any cute guys?" I winked at Jazzy who sat next to me and made eye contact with Allie through the rear view mirror. There was some shuffling before they exchanged a look and I sensed something. "So there are cute guys! Come on tell me, I wanna know!" Silence. "Come on guys it's just me - your favorite sister-in-law." I tried persuading.

"Okay but you can't tell anyone!"

"I promise." A smile tugged at my lips.

"Okay so there's this guy in my biology class and he's really cute." Jazzy was blushing like crazy and I had to bite my lip in order not to laugh. "Anyways he is on the school hockey team with Jaxon which is why he can't know and asked me on a date."

"That's nice. What's his name?" I wondered.

"Elliot." She informed me.

"He's like really popular. Every girl in school has a crush on him." Allie chipped in from the backseat. "Well apart from me." She added quickly and I chuckled.

"I see, so you and the Highschool sweetheart, huh?" I challenged and Jazzy blushed yet again. "Do you have a photo of Elliot?"

"This is him." Jazzy showed me as we were in line for the mall's parking lot. He was indeed cute, but to me he was the little kid kind of cute, not the I-like-the-guy-cute. No wonder every girl liked him. Elliot would've been the type I liked in Highschool.

"He looks good." I commented knowing that would burst Jazzy's ego and she smiled proudly at me.

"We've been texting a lot and tonight we're going on this date."

"Wow tonight. You exited?"

"Yeah." She admitted shyly.

"Where is he taking you?" I continued my little interrogation.

"To the movies." Oh a classic first date. Nice.
