Adopted by the Rowlands

Cake and Farts

Heya readers! I changed a couple of things in my previous chapters. It's nothing major but I think my revisions make a little more sense than the originals.

B R A N D O N

We left after Hunter got Connie's number. The whole car ride back he couldn't stop smiling. I wondered if that's what I looked like when I asked Elly out. Speaking of Elly, I pulled my phone out and texted her as Alex babbled on about her contract and how excited she was.

me:

Alex just signed her contract!!

Elly ;)   :

aww! tell her I said congrats

me:

Will do.

I told Alex and she smiled really big and said, "Tell her I said thanks!"

***Back to the Rowland's house***

When we walked into the door, Hunter immediately ran up to his room.

"HUNTER! Come back down here! We're having cake and celebrating Alex!" Mom yelled.

I heard him groan and he came back down. Why was he so eager to get up there?

Mom pulled an oreo ice cream cake from Dairy Queen out of the freezer. Alex's favorite. We all said congratulations again as we dug into the cake.

As soon as we finished our slice(s) of cake, Hunter sprinted up the stairs to his room.

"Why is he being weird?" Alex asked.

I laughed.

"He's always weird." I said.

"Yeah but he's not THIS weird." She argued.

I shrugged, "I bet he's texting Connie."

I remembered how happy he got when he saw her again. I was honestly a little bit of a loner when I was younger, so I didn't really have a ton of friends. I used to follow Hunter around until he told me to go away.

"Ooooh does he have a crush on her?" Alex asked eagerly.

I smiled. She was so cute.

"You should ask him, he would probably tell you." I said.

Ashton came back into the room and he smelt like poop.

"WHAT DID YOU DO?!" Alex shouted.

He shrugged, "What do you mean? I didn't do anything."

"Dude you smell like you just crapped your pants," I said.

He turned red.

"Tell us," Alex added.

"I just farted."

We all bursted into laughter except Ashton.

"It's natural!" He argued.

But that just made us laugh harder. Mom came into the kitchen again and gave me and Alex a weird look.

"Ashton-" Alex started talking but couldn't finish because she was laughing too hard.

"What?" Mom asked.

After a couple more minutes of cracking up, I was finally able to talk again.

"Ashton farted and it smelt so bad." I said.

Mom rolled her eyes.

"So immature." She said, and walked away.

Mood killer.
