"My eyes are bleeding" Andrew grumbled as Seth and Trish made out near the fridge, "Couldn't you have slapped him in the face, like we all thought you would've?"

They broke apart to give Andrew a glare.

"Not funny" Seth hissed but Trish grinned.

"And let you go through another day with sappy Seth?" Seth gasped at her nickname, "That wouldn't be fair to you...I'm just glad he's put his cape down"

"What, you didn't like MANKENZIE: Ultimate defender of the universe and your heart?" Seth pouted. 

"Not when he was trying to tell me what was best for me, no" She grinned and play slapped his chest.

It had been two days since the restaurant fiasco and I was still reeling from the fact that my plan, although had been going South, went North.

We were all sat around Seth's living room with absolutely nothing to do. There was excitement in the air as Seth and Trish hugged and did all sorts of 'happy couply' things but I was uneasy. I mean, yeah I was happy for them but I wasn't doing anything about my life...Especially on a day like today, where I actually wanted to feel happy. 

I had decided against announcing to the guys that today was my birthday because I, personally, didn't find myself caring the way I normal did. Today felt no different from any other day and I didn't want anyone thinking they owed me anything. 

"I'll be back" I mumbled leaving the room and making a beeline for mine.

I shoveled my phone out of my bag and rolled my eyes at the multiple messages from my parents. I had been texting them, only one word replies, to let them know I wasn't kidnapped and held for ransom.

"What it do" I scrunched my nose at his greeting.

"Really? Do you think that sounds cool?"

"Harper!" Jude exclaimed, "I didn't think you'de call"

"I am your sister, aren't I?" It still felt surreal to say it.

"I mean, yeah, but I was sure you had been scared off" There were shrieks in the background, "Sorry, I'm at the skate park"

I nodded as if he could see me.

"What are you doing today?" I asked and he laughed.

"Well...I am at the skate park"

"I know that, I was wondering if you maybe wanted to hang out?" I awaited his sure 'no' but sat shocked as he laughed again.

"I love that you're being so formal" He sounded out of breath and took a moment to take deep breaths, "Yeah, I'm up for it"

"Great!" I smiled excited, "Is it okay if I bring my friends along?"

Despite having met Jude already, I didn't feel like going to an area I wasn't familiar with all alone...I needed support.

"The more the merrier...that's how it goes right?"

I laughed out loud, "See you in a few, Jude"

"I'll text you the co-ordinates" I furrowed my eyebrows, was that a saying? "Harper do you, by any chance, know how to skateboard?"

"Do you know how to put on lipstick?" I countered.

"Touché" He clicked his tongue as the line went dead.
