chapter 60

IVY'S POV
*after i shower and wash my hair, i wash my face and do my skincare routine. i dry my face off and rub lotion all over my legs and arms. then i put on a loose black dress with my sandals before brushing my hair. i apply some chapstick and walk out of the bathroom, going into my room. i lay down and scroll through my phone when all of the sudden my door opens. i jump from fright and see joey laughing at me. i pout and cross my arms as i look at him.*

ivy- that was mean baby

joey- you know i only meant it as a joke princess

ivy- i don't know, did i?

joey- yes, yes you did

*i giggle and lay back down, pulling joey on top of me. he props himself up on his elbows and i look into his eyes. he smiles at me, causing me to smile back and i run my hand through his hair.*

ivy- are you ready to go get some food love?

joey- yes, i'm starving

ivy- me too baby

*he stands up and grabs my hands. i hold onto his hands and stand up as he pulls me. we walk downstairs and get in the car with the rest of his family. jen starts driving and i look at her, wondering where we are going to eat.*

ivy- jen, where are we going to eat lunch?

jen- i was thinking japanese. is that okay?

ivy- it's perfect

*i exchange smiles with her and look over at joey. he kisses my forehead and i lay my head on his chest. i intertwine our fingers and grab my phone with my free hand. i open snapchat and start taking pictures of joey. he kisses my forehead in a couple of them before making silly faces or smiling. i giggle and save them all to my memories before posting the one of us looking at each other with smiles on our faces. i caption it "my boy🥺" and put my phone down.*

jen- we are here kids

bella- japanese food sounds so good right now

sophia- yesss i'm so hungry

joey- same here. pound it sophia

ivy- i'm hungry too

*i giggle and get out, waiting for joey. he gets out of the car and pounds his fist with sophia's. i laugh softly and he walks over to me. he drapes his arm around my shoulder as we walk in and jen asks for a table for five. we sit down to wait for our table to be ready and i look over at joey.*

joey- what are you thinking about baby?

ivy- what are we going to do about our friends?

joey- what do you mean?

ivy- like, you and i aren't going to school anymore except for your games. what if serena doesn't talk to me anymore?

joey- you have her number baby. you can always text her and you can see her at football games

ivy- i guess you're right. i overthink too much
