Caden turned around still trying to accept what just happened. That couldn't be her best friend's voice, she said she couldn't come. It simply couldn't be.
But there she was, suitcase in hand and looking at Caden with the same goofy smile she had been showing every week they talked.
Getting out of her trance she mirrored her smile and ran quickly to her best friend.
"Eva! You stupid liar." Caden's arms embraced the girl's body warmly. Eva letting out a loud laugh. "I missed you! You could have told me." She looked at Eva as she motioned to Cole with her head.
"We figured you might like a surprise." Caden shook her head at Cole but smiled at her best friend. She was happy nonetheless.
Brandon and the rest of the boys headed over to Eva's luggage to carry it to the car. They felt happy for Caden, they knew that before heading to San Francisco she was going to need to clear her head.
Both girls chatted lively while on their way to the car. "What about Saf?" Caden asked Eva as she took her phone out, "this time don't lie to me." Eva let out a quiet laugh shaking her head.
"She's coming here in two days, no lies." Caden squealed, excited for what the last days in Los Angeles were about to bring.
They both headed to the car where the boys were already waiting. Eva's luggage seemingly in the trunk. Cole pushed himself off the car and walked over to them. "There's not enough space for all of us."
"Let's just leave Edwin out." Nick shrugged while Edwin turned to look at him. "We'll see about that Nickleback."
Just like that Edwin lunged inside the car to the very back of the car. Caden glanced back and forward in between the back of the car and the guys outside. Before anyone could react she followed Edwin inside and sat next to him.
"Last one stays!" Eva called out, not having to tell the boys twice. They all pushed eachother to get inside leaving Nick out.
"Nick what the hell are you doing?" Austin called out to him but was interrupted by Nick crashing on him, positioning himself in Brandon and Austin's laps. "I have white shoes on I don't want them dirty."
Cole started driving, giving a quick tour to Eva from inside the car so she could plan out where to visit. Everyone was too tired to go out today. Eva kept nodding occasionally whispering 'I want to visit this' to Caden so they could all go together once Safiya arrived.
Eventually Cole pulled up into the house. The boys were staying over yet again and along with Cole, were planning out what to do for lunch. Caden showed Eva briefly around the house, showing her where she would be staying which was in Caden's room.
Once everything was set Caden and Eva went out to a small balcony in one of the guest rooms to talk and catch up while the boys were making burgers. Pulling their chairs and sitting down on them they stared at the backyard. The pool was a little dirty, thus needed some cleaning; other than that everything was as before.
"We should plan a day out with Charlotte, Fiff and Lexys." Caden nodded at the suggestion. It would be good to hang out all together before she had to leave with Cole and the boys.
"Anyways, we can plan all that later, talk to me." Caden knew what was coming, it was always the same thing over and over again. It was so tiring and repetitive yet everyone always seemed so invested on the subject.
"If you want me to talk about how Zion and I are doing then don't bother. Absolutely nothing." Rather ending it quickly, Caden thought.
"But are you sure-"
