Chapter 7 Preperations

Lennon's pov

So Black Veil Brides are going to be in my parent's hotel. Below my house. I might pass out.

I run down to my parents house and grab the first adult I see, my dad.

"Did someone book three or more rooms to stay for a week or two in the near future?"

"Yes. Yesterday. Why do you ask?" He cocks one eyebrow at me, a talent I've never been able to master.

"No reason," I giggle slightly and skip over to the kitchen table where my siblings, excluding Julian who is out on a date, are sitting. "Hello family, how are we?"

"Bored," Jake said, poking his peas around his plate with his fork.

"Well, if you'd eat, maybe you wouldn't be so bored," Mom hits the back of his head affectionately.

"But I'm not hungry. I just want to go skateboarding with Cole and Simon," he rolls his eyes.

"You know you're not allowed to go with them unless someone is watching you three," Mom says glaring at him. "We don't want a repeat of what you did do we?"

Last month Jake, Cole and Simon were skating and decided to do some tricks off of a statue. Needless to say, they broke it, majorly. Their parents had to pay for the damage and they're forbidden to skateboard anywhere near the statue.

"Lennon, will you take him?" my mom asks.

"Sure," I answer. "I have nothing better to do."

Mom smiles at me, relieved.

"I'll go grab my stuff. You finish eating," I point at Jake meaningfully then head back up to my place.

I grab my car keys as well as my skateboard and head back downstairs. Our parents, being the crazy art freaks they are, decided that skateboarding was an important life skill for their artsy children. Just like riding a bike and doing a cartwheel is for normal kids.

Jake meets me at the door to the family home and we head down to my car.

"We're meeting in the Walmart parking lot and just moving on from there." Jake says.

"Did you tell them I'm coming?" I raise my eyebrows.

"Not yet. They'll be glad you're not Julian. He wouldn't let us leave the parking lot last time." he looks over at me.

"Well, I plan on skating with ya'll," I laugh. We drive a little longer then pull into the Walmart parking lot where Cole and Simon are waiting, boards in hand.

Cole rolls his eyes and Simon lets out an annoyed breath as we pull up and the two of us get out of my car.

"You didn't tell us you were getting us another nanny," Cole growls quietly.

"No matter how hot she is." Simon winks at me.

"I am four years older than you," I snap at him and he blushes. "So where are we skating?" I pull my board out of the car and the boys do a double take.

"She's coming with us?" Cole looks over at Jake. "We're supposed to meet Aaron and his friends."

"Why the hell didn't you tell me?" Jake growls.

"You guys know I know Aaron Combi right?" I look at the three of them. "He was a year older than me in school and I smoked with him often enough."

"So," Jake begins.

"Let's go turn up," I grin at them. "As long as your mothers don't know and I don't get in trouble, then we'll be fine."

The boys cheer and Cole leads the way. Simon tries to tell everyone to slow down so I can keep up but I laugh at him and skate right past him, smacking the back of Jake's head lightly as I pass. We skate for about twenty minuets before we reach an old warehouse that Aaron's been using as a party and smoking spot for years.
