I look at Bob gop smacked. I swear if he's tripping with me I'm gonna give him the cold shoulder. I give him a cold look, "I'm not messing with you. Now come on. We leave in three." He sits by this white bench kinda thing that my mom has by the walkway of the house. 

I quickly and quietly go to my closet and try to find something casual, yet cute. You're weird, the voice told me. I try to shake it off. I look for my black and white varsity jacket, grab my black and white adidas superstar, and head to the balcony. I hop over the railing and jump down from the second story. Crazy? Yeah, but I've done it before whenever I snuck out with Bob.

 "We're going to have to walk about half a block to my car. You ready?" I fell myself full of butterflies, and I'm nervous... but I nod my head nonetheless, "Alright, let's go." Bob and I start walking towards his car, and he puts his arm over my shoulder.

...is it weird  that I feel like Bob is like my older brother/dad figure?

I go around the front of the car to get to the passenger's side. Once I get in Bob asks me again, "You ready?" But I don't know... am I ready to see my brother again? He's not even my biological brother... he's just... he's my adoptive brother. Will he act the same towards me? Will Dally still acknowledge me? Will he still love me, and want me? I shrug my shoulders, lowered the window, leaned my head against the ledge, and looked up at the starry night, "Take a nap, it's gonna be a while since we're gonna take the long way." I nod my head, and let my thoughts consume me.

"Bunny..." I feel Bob shaking my shoulder, "C'mon, don't ya want to see your family?" I perk up at that, and my eyes quickly shoot open. I hear Bob chuckle, "C'mon, we're right outside." I look passed him, and see the lights on in a white house with a metal fence around.  After a second of hesitation Bob opens my door. One look at my face, and he sees my hesitation. His eyes soften, like the thousands of time I've seen them do and he puts his hand forward, "You got this. I'm right here with you, like always."

His words comfort me, and with one deep breath in I head out of the car.

I'm sorry it's short guys, but I wanted to put something out because I'm making the next chapter right now, and I'm hoping it will be up by tomorrow, or later today 😅
