"Your lips keep moving but all I hear is 'Blah, blah, blah.'" Ethan states.
"And you'll never be the man your mother is," Cody shoots back trying to keep down his smile.
Willow beside me chokes on her water. After freaking out about how Willow has never been to IHOP, somehow an insult war started between Ethan and Cody and so far they haven't backed down. It's very amusing.
My mom chose to stay home to watch David so it's only us four. She's missing out big time.
"Let me just say, Cody. If I had a face like yours, I'd sue my parents."
"Even Jesus hates you."
"Boys, boys. Just because you have a dick doesn't mean you have to act like one," Willow pipes in grinning.
"I'm sorry Willow I didn't get that. I don't speak idiot," Cody tells her and high fives Ethan.
"On a more serious note. Why haven't you been here before?" I ask and see her whole face drop.
"The same reason I've never been to Six Flags or ate a donut before. I didn't know what a Snapple was until a couple days ago. I've never gone to the movies and we can all tell I'm really underweight. My parents didn't feed me or let me do anything fun.
My life literally consisted of eating leftover scraps of bread or eggs, school work and chores. If I forgot something or did something wrong or ate something I wasn't suppose to, I was punished," Willow says lowly, looking down at the table the whole time.
"I think we can all agree we have a badass over here. Also, I have a fantastic idea. You guys will finally love me when I tell it." Cody wiggles his eyebrows suggestively and I swear I heard Ethan sigh. Not the 'this is the most boring shit ever. I wasted spending time with my cat for this?' type but the 'oh my god the world is lovely he's lovely take me please'.
Cody's idea is we should make a bucket list of things Willow has never done/tried and complete them all.
So far we came up with:
- Eat donuts
- Go to Six Flags
- Go to the movies
- Try sushi
- Camp and skinny dip in the lake (didn't tell the last part to Willow)
Willow is giggling and genuinely looks happy around Ethan and Cody.
"Here's your guys food and I'm sorry about the wait. What's your name, cutie? I haven't seen you here before," the waiter asks Willow winking. Who the fuck does he think he is?
"Her name is Elizabeth-" I start out but Ethan cuts me off.
"Beth for short. Are you missing your glasses or something? Because she's pretty banged up and if you think that's cute, you can leave-" and then Cody interrupts him.
"And go fuck your fleshlight that you hide under your pillow. Have a nice day and thanks for the food! The french toast here is amazing."
