Twenty Five

Madeline's POV- July 2017

Mom let out a sigh as she looked at me and then at the twins. She raised her hand and pointed at them.

"You two be good to Maddy"

Both Noah and Nate nodded.

"We will"

Noah was the first to be pulled into a hug, and he immediately groaned when she kissed his cheek.

"You know what will happen if you wipe your cheek"

He knew better than to wipe his cheek. If he did he would get more kisses which he hated. There used to be a point in life where Noah loved kisses.

"No baseball"

Nate grinned at mom as he pulled her into a hug.

"No playing baseball"

She kissed his cheek when he nodded.

"Good because we're going to go watch a baseball game"

Mom looked at me.

"I got this mom, you go and have fun" I told her as she hugged me.

"I'm a phone call away"

She kissed my cheek and pulled away. I looked at Mike who smiled.

"Please don't need us"

I laughed and accepted his hug.

"I won't" I assured him.

He winked at me as he picked up his and mom's carry on.

"I'll see you two in one week. Have fun, drink lots and get nice tans" I told them.

Nate nodded.

"Goodbye now"

The twins and I watched mom and Mike disappear into the crowd.

"Alright, lets go eat something and then go to that Dodgers game" I said.

"Are we picking up someone?"

"We are, Mady asked if she could get a ride" I answered.

"Well the let's go"

I made sure they were in the car before I made my way around the car.

"Seat belts" I ordered as I opened the car door.

We picked Mady up and decided on eating In-N-Out.

"Corey mentioned that your dad works for the Diamondbacks"

I nodded as I took a sip of my lemonade.

"So are you planning on driving to Arizona in two weeks?"

"I don't really like driving to Arizona" I admitted.

"Why's that?"

"I always get pulled over. Mom thinks it has to do with my car having California plates" I replied.

"Well that sucks"

I shrugged and took a bite of my burger.

"It is what it is. I'll still probably drive there, I know better than to spend money on a flight" I told her.

"Well if you decide that you're driving there, I'm a great co-pilot"

"You want to surprise Corey?" I asked.
