Me and my SIX older BROTHERS!

the one with Grace.

Dylan has two more days left with me until he leaves for two weeks. "Babe!" i call from upstairs. "Yeah?" "Come up here!" He walks upstairs into his room and flops onto the be with me. "What?" he asks. "We should get you packed and ready to go today so that we can go out tonight and have tomorrow to do something." i say running my hand threw his hair. He nodds his head and he puckers his lips. I smile and lean down to kiss him. I walk over to his closet and start laying out clothes. "All sweat pants?" he asks. "These are for me." i say. he smiles and walks up to me. We start packing his stuff up until all of his clothes were in a suit case or in a stay pile. I started hanging some stuff back up. "I have an idea." he says. "Lets go back to California before i leave." he says. Like back and see all of your friends?" i ask. "Yeah." he says. "Like Grace, Amie, Jackie, Zach Chris and Berlin?"

"Yes." he says with a smile. "Okay yeah when should we drive up there?" i ask. "Today." he says. "Well call them and see what their plans are." i say and walk out of the room. Dylan doesnt know but when we left Berlin and I had been texting for awhile. He told me that she was a reble and that i wasnt like her so i wanted to prove him wrong. Long story short she came out here for a week and we hung out every night. we went to clubs and partys and she even got me a fake ID.

I walked into the kitchen and saw it was only 7:30 in the morning. we are so lame being up this early. i walked back into his room and sat next to him. "Its only 7:30. if we leave by eight then we can be there by 1 this afternoon." i say. "Alright well then go pack a bag and we can go." he says. i walked over to the dresser and started putting shorts and bras in my mini duffle bag. i looked behind me to see if dylan was paying attention but he was on his phone. i grabbed some lingerie and threw it in the bag. i threw in a few more crop tops and zipped up. "Oh babe did you call doctor hall and tell him were leaving?" he asks. "He doesnt need to know everything i do." i say and stand up. i throw my bag on the bed and take off my shirt. i walked over to his closet and grabbed his big black hoddie and walked back to the mirror. "I think you should call him." he says as i slide it on. "If you want him to know were leaving then you can call him but we dont need to." i say. we walk out to the car and pile our stuff in and take off.

We finally made it to Grace's house in California and dylan pulled his phone out to call her and puts her on speaker. "Hello?" she says. "Hey we're outside." dylan says. "Zach!" she yells. "Dylan's here! We're coming." she says and he hangs up. "You excited to see everyone?" i ask. "Its been almost a year." he says. "I know i still remember meeting all of them. Calling me your girlfriend." i tease. "Well look where that joke got ya." he says. i layed my hand on my thigh and used my right to scroll on my phone. he put his hand on mine and intertwined our fingers. everyone walked out of the house so we got out of the car. Dylan!" Amie and Grace and Jackie yell. they all run to him except Berlin who walks to me.

"Assuming he doesnt know about our adventures?" she asks. "Nope." i say. she smiles and we walk over to everyone. "Hey Callie your still around!" Chris says. "Dude?" Amie says. i laugh. "What i was shocked too." Grace says. "Oh dont get me wrong Callie your cool just not typically Dylans type. i figured you would be long gone by now." "Huh i figured you would forget my name concidering all of the guys names you need to remember after they come home with you." i say. "But im glad your getting around, meeting new people." her face starts turning red and everyone tries hinding their face not to laugh.

"So Dylan." she says. "Where do you want to go for lunch?" she asks. "Im not sure." he says. "Oh babe we could go to Dill's." i say. "Oh yeah thats my favorite." he says. "Oh My God!" Grace says loud. "I LOVE Dill's!!" "Grace i thought you said you hated Dill's." Jackie says. "Well that was before i tried it!" she snaps. "You know you cant judge a book by its cover Jack!" "Hey babe is my phone still in the car?" i ask. "Yeah." he says. i walk over to the car and sit inside. i turn the car on and roll my window down. "Are we ready?" i asked. "yeah babe." Dylan says and walks to the car. he got in next to me and everyone else pile in. i looked at berlin and gave her the look. she stood infront of Grace and started talking to her. Chris and Zach got in and there was one seat left. "Berlin come on!" i say and she runs to the car. "So Amie are you gonna drive? i can probably just get a ride back with Dylan so you wont have to worry about that." Grace says. "Uh." she says and looks at Berlin. "No i dont feel like driving i was out all night." she says. "You were with me." "Well before that i was driving around a lot." "Jackie?" she asks. "I dont have enough gas to get us to dill's." she says. ""Grace why dont you just drive?" Amie asks. "Fine." she says and they stat walking towards her house. "Hey we're just going to meet you there!" i yell. Dylan starts driving and we head to Dill's.

after we all order we were talking about Dylan going to be playing football for a living. "Are you excited?" Chris asks. "Well kinda." he says. "What do you meean kinda?" "Im going to miss Arizona." he says. "Thats my home." "Uh California is your home." Grace says. "Here with your friends." "I know i thought it was my home, but its not where im meant to be." he says. "Im meant to be there with Callie." "Hmm." she says. "Awe." i say. "Well are you happy over there?" Zach asks. "I am the second happiest ive ever been in my life." he says. "What was the first?" Grace asks. "When you met someone?" "Actually yeah." he says. She gets a big smile on her face and stares at him. "The day i met Callie was the best day of mylife." he says. her smile fades and she looks down. "im going to use the bathroom." once she was out of sight the subject changed to her.

"Dylan im so sorry you had to come back to that." Berlin says. "Shes on a whole nother level." Jackie says. "No kidding i would have like to driven her." Ammie says. "Right the hell over her." "Guys its fine Grace has always been this way." Dylan says. "What way?" i ask. "Trying to go back out with Dylan." Amie says. everyone got quiet and i looked down. Dylan truned his face to mine and looked at me. "Good job Amie." Jackie says. "Oh i didnt mean to-" "Dont worry about it." i say. "Hey Dylan can i see your keys i left my phone in the car." i say. he hands me my keys and i walk out. Dylan sighs. "What she just said everythigns fine." Jackie says. "Yeah for real dude she seemed fine." Chris says. "She's pissed." Dylan says. "How do you know?" "Cause she called me dylan."

i walked to the car and sat in my seat. i took my phone out of my pocket and called CC. "Hey girl what are you doing?" she asks. "Im in california, with Dylan's ex girlfriend who he never mentioned was his ex girlfriend." i say. "Oh no." she says. "Is it one of the girls you met last time you were there?" "Yep." i say to her. "Oh my god well ill have a good big drink waiting for you when you get back!" she says. "Ok." i say and hang up. I walk back inside and sethat Grace still wasnt at the table. before i walked to the table i walked to the bathroom. I walked inside and saw Grace looking in the mirror.

"What are you doing in here?" she asks. "Why didnt you tell me you and Dylan were ex's?" i ask. "Oh you found out." she says almost scared. "Well i dont know the whole story." i say. "He didnt tell you?" she asks. "No!" "Oh. Well i shouldnt say anything he wouldnt like that very much." she says and tries to walk out. i grab her arm and turn her back around to face me. "You need to start talking!" i say. "Fine." she says. "Well me and Dylan were dating from two years ago up until a week before he moved to Arizona." she says. "Wha- so, i came up here a month after you broke up?" i ask. she nods her head. "And you never told me?" i ask. "Why?"

"Because i knew he was trying to spite me, so i figured you would be gone by now." she says. i shake my head slightly and take a deep breath. I walk out of the bathroom and sit down at the table but on the opposite side next to Berlin. "So i was thinking why dont you guys go to the beach?" i say. "What why wouldnt you come?" Dylan asks. "Well this give you all a chance to go back to how things used to be for awhile, and im not feeling that great so just drop me off at the hotel." i say. "Babe dont be crazy you have to come." "I dont feel like going to the beach right now." i say. Grace walks back to the table ad sits down quietly.

After we ate dylan dropped me off and they all went to the beach. he said he would be home around 8 and its 7:45 so i walk into the bathroom and turn on the shower. When i was finished i walked back out and saw that he wasnt back and it waas almost 8:30. i laid on the bed and closed my eyes. I heard someone open the door and then softly close it. i knew it was him. he sat down on the bed next to me and rubbed myback. "Dont touch me." i say and he pulls his hand away. "Babe are we going to talk about whatever your mad about?" he asks. "Sure." i say sitting up. "Why did you bring me here a month after you and Grace broke up?" i ask. "What?" he says. "What are you talking about?" "She told me that you two were dating a week before you left." "Babe we broke up in sixth grade." he says. "That was like a week long thing that ended in grade school." "Then why would she tell me-" "Because she wants to caause a problem." he says. "Oh." "So will you go out with us tomorrow?" he asks. "Duh." i say and he smiles. he kisses me and we go to bed.
