-nico, Christmas break-

"yes, mom, we're coming tomorrow," mom said into the phone. we were facetiming nana, who was double checking if we had all of our stuff ready.

"and nico, you're bringing your boyfriend right?" nana asked.

i rolled my eyes and laughed, "yes, ma'am."

"and hazel, you're bringing yours?"

hazel's face went red. "yes ma'am." frank and her had made it official weeks before, around the time when the Ferris wheel accident occurred.

also, if you're wondering about the ferris wheel pictures, frank and hazel confronted the few people behind it and threatened to bring both the drama club and weightlifters down to kick their ass.

so, all the pictures disappeared. instead, we let them say that there was a secret couple. ever since then, drama erupted. some people even thought it was us, a lot did, but it was fun to keep people wondering. others thought it was other people, and other people revealed themselves as secret couples. honestly, that wasn't our intention.

   it wasn't the fact that i wasn't ready- it just wasn't their news to tell.

"good, i have both rooms set up for them. though i doubt they'll stay in there."

hazel and i both blushed. "nana!" we said in unison.

"what's that supposed to mean?" mom asked.

"oh, you should know, when you were a teen-"

"mom!" now mom was blushing.

"alright, i'll save you both the embarrassment. where's your husband?"

"he's still on the phone," mom said.

"with who?"

mom didn't say anything, she just looked at me and back at nana. nana didn't seem to get it.

"he's on the phone with my biological mother," i said.

"ohhh," nana nodded.

"how do you know?" mom asked in amazement.

"this happens like every christmas," i sighed. "she wants to see me and all that."

   "i know it sounds kind of messed up that your father isn't very happy about it..." mom trailed off.

   my mom used to always be high and stuff life that. i never remembered it much but once she accidentally left me in the car while she went in a stranger's house to do whatever she did to get high and some neighbor saw me and called the police, dad had decided it was a breaking point. i didn't remember a lot of it, but dad hated the idea. especially, the visitations around holidays like these. dad had always stayed in extra long phone calls with her which ended up in a fight. he just wanted to make sure i was safe in that kind of environment.

   the worse part about this time, though, is that my biological mom wanted to meet Will.

   "i understand, mom," i forced a smile.

dad came out suddenly and pushed down the fact that he was frustrated. he looked tired and worn out. i felt bad because some part of me thought it was me making him feel this. if I was being totally honest, i wished i didn't have to visit her. i didn't even like her. other visits had always been weird and awkward and forced. it was especially hard considering hazel couldn't be there for emotional support, and she was my best friend.
