Grand Theft Autumn

a prank to give them what they want

My mom had called me later that day but I didn't answer, I couldn't believe they had done this. Did they want rid of me that badly? Pete and I hadn't talked since breakfast. This was just so weird for us, being set up by our parents. I was sitting on my bed that night still angry when Pete waltzed in my room without asking.

"Call your parents" he smiled slyly.

"I don't really want to talk to either of them right now." I said

"I was thinking payback, but since you don't-" he had me at payback.

"What is it?" I interrupted and he sat on my bed and looked glad that I was listening.

"I was thinking since they want us together so badly why not let them have what they want?" I just stared at him confused for a moment. "Tell them were getting married and you're staying in Illinois"

I couldn't do that to them, could I? No, I totally could after being shipped off here. I picked up my phone and dialed my mom's number and put it on speaker.

"Hey AJ. We miss you! How are things in Illinois?" She asked.

"Hi mom!" Pete said into the phone.

"Pete, why are you calling me mom?" She asked confused and Pete and I held back our laughter.

"put me on speaker." I said.

"Your on speaker." She said with confusion still in her voice.

"Hey sweetie!" My dad said

"Mom, Dad, I'm getting married to Pete!" I announced and there was dead air over the phone for a few seconds.

"What?!" I herd my father say.

"Honey, your way too young, your not even eighteen yet." My mom said with upset evident in her voice.

"Oh, I know. Were going to get married on my birthday, I'm staying here." I said and Pete had to cover his mouth to keep his laughter from blowing our cover.

"No you will not! I told you this was a bad Idea Cindy!" My father yelled.

"I didn't know this would happen, Frank!" My mom said.

"Dad, calm down Autumn can't be around all this yelling with the baby!" Pete spoke up and my jaw dropped as my father started to go off I began to laugh with Pete and we hung up the phone and we rolled around on my bed laughing.

"Did you hear him when I called him dad and talked about a baby!he was so pissed!" Pete laughed hysterically with me.

It took a minuted but we eventually collected our selves.

"Feel better?" He asked.

"Much better" I answered

"It's nice to know how they would react when all that really does happen." He smiled.

"Don't count on it Pete" I said flatly.

"I'm geting the weirdest mixed signals from you." He said

"That's probably because I have mixed feelings" I said.

"Like what?"

"Like I'm seventeen and your twenty. And I've known you for basically my whole life. And also there's this thing where you seem like a major player. And the fact that I'm only here for two months." I said.

"Your almost eighteen. And there was like Thirteen years in there where we didn't see each other. I'm not that much of a whore, and you could just stay here" he shrugged.

"How many women have you slept with?" I asked.

"I don't know, only like ten or something." He said.
