*November 14*

Lenin's POV

I groaned as I studied for my Spanish test tomorrow. It's a big test on verbs and I can't seem to remember anything.

"Shit." I groaned as I got a question wrong.

I sighed as I tried to remember everything but nothing was sticking. I was writing down some notes when my phone dinged.

Donny: FaceTime?

Lenin: can't studying for Spanish tomorrow

Donny: nothing sticking?

Lenin: Yeah😒

Donny: try taking a break

Lenin: already taken 3 of those

Donny: Damn, sorry babe. Wish I could be more help

Lenin: don't be I'll figure it out

Donny: see you tomorrow?

Lenin: Yeah

Donny: ok, good luck

Lenin: Thanks good night

Donny: you too

I changed the song that was playing before I went back at it.

"Oh my god." I groaned as I got another question wrong.

I was ready to cry or scream. I'm not 100 percent sure which one, but either would help. I was studying the -ar verbs when there was a knock at the door.

"Come in." I called as I looked up from my laptop.

"Hey, you ok?" My dad stuck his head in my room.

"Honestly, no, I can't remember any of this Spanish." I sighed as I laid my head on my head board.

"You wanna take a break?" My dad asked as he sat on my bed.

"I've taken like 3." I sighed as I looked down at my computer.

"Well you haven't taken one with me." He stood up and extended his hand to me.

"Where are we going?" I took his hand and got out of bed.

"Don't worry about that, just go put a hoodie on and meet me downstairs." He told me before he left.

I sighed as I walked to my closet. I threw on one of Donny's hoodies before I grabbed my phone and wallet. I walked downstairs to hear a car running. I walked out into the garage to see my dad in his old Jeep. I smiled and got in.

"What made you wanna drive this?" I asked as he pulled out of our driveway.

"Thought it would be fun to roll around in a Jeep." He said making me cringe.

"First of all, no one has said roll around since you adopted me." I laughed. "But, seriously, you haven't driven this in so long."

"I don't know. Just wanted something chill. Not too flashy." He shrugged as he drove.

"Where are going anyways?" I asked as I watched the street lights pass by us.

"Sonic." He smirked making me smile.

"Does not shock me." I gave a small laugh.

We talked about random stuff while my dad drove. I laughed as my dad made a stupid joke. He drove until we pulled up to Sonic. My dad parked at one of the car hop stands. We ordered before my dad and I got out of the Jeep. I smiled as he opened the back and we sat down.
