August checked the time once again, growing more and more impatient as time went by. "Ronnie, if you make me wait down here for one more second, I will drag you down here by your frizzy hair."

"August, she just got back. Be nice to Veronica," Cynthia scolded from the kitchen. Auggie rolled his eyes at the faint voice coming from the other room. As he was about to march upstairs to carry out his threat, Ronnie finally came scurrying down from her bedroom.

"I'm so sorry, I woke up really late," she frantically explained. August raised his eyebrow and shrugged, deciding it was not worth the fight. "You ready to go?"

"Do I have to?" Veronica was weary as he opened up the front door.

"You ask me that every day and I always tell you the same thing: yes, you have to," he said firmly. Ronnie let out a sigh of disgust and stomped outside.

"Why can't I get homeschooled like Emilia?"

"You're more famous than her, so you probably could," August said nonchalantly as they began to walk to Saint Ann's private school. Veronica clenched her jaw and looked down at her feet before turning to him.

"Auggie, I didn't at all sleep last night," she said quietly. "My phone kept blowing up. I have over sixty eight thousand followers on Instagram." August gave his sister an incredulous look.

"You're famous."

"I'm not famous, August. I just made one new friend," she said, aware of how short she was selling herself. He shook his head.

"It doesn't matter if he's just a friend or best friend. You're, like, famous now, Ronnie. You have to accept it. By the way, Fironica? Are you two actually just friends? Buzzfeed wants to know," he said sarcastically. August laughed as Veronica smacked his arm.

"No! We're not dating. We agreed that the kiss wasn't in the best interest for either of us, so we're hashtag best friends for life," she said. August raised his eyebrows.

"And yet, he went on a Twitter search for you. And, you also text him every second of every day. I don't know, Vee, but it seems like you two have the hots for each other," he teased. Veronica blushed and stomped ahead of her brother, who laughed at her.

It took about seven minutes to reach Saint Ann's. However, Veronica wasn't expecting everyone to stare at her as she walked down the hall. August smirked as girls and guys alike pointed at and whispered about Ronnie.
