It's been a year since the past incidences have happened and now Swagger and his friends are Sophomores!❤️🥰 Now they can drive and cause more trouble! YAYYYY!❤️

Swagger's POV
I woke up to someone jumping on me and guess who it was. I sat up and looked around my room. Then, I noticed the person on the ground next to my bed "happy birthday Swagger!" He whisper yelled. "Fitz? Wtf! You scared the shit out of me!" I whisper yelled back at him "sorry I just wanted to tell you happy birthday and I also wanted to get actual good breakfast before school. Did you wanna come with me and the guys?" Fitz asked. I smiled and nodded "that sounds nice actually. I don't think I can handle waiting until 7 o'clock for breakfast today since I didn't eat dinner last night or lunch yesterday" I said and Fitz nodded. "Yea well that's kinda just karma man. Your stomach is punishing you for not eating like you were supposed to" he said as he crossed his arms. "Well I wasn't hungry at lunch and I wasn't feeling good when I got home so I didn't eat dinner" I said. "Yea ok. Just get ready, we don't have all morning ya know" he said as he left my room "yea yea" I said rolling my eyes.

Fitz's POV
I was sitting on the couch while Swagger got ready. A few minutes later, I heard Swagger's door close so I stood up. He walked out of his room with his stuff. "You got everything?" I asked "yea" he said and I nodded. I picked up my phone off the couch then we made our way outside. Toby was sitting in the backseat of my car on her phone. Me and Swagger got in and I started the car. "Good morning sleepy head. Happy birthday" Toby said to Swagger. "Good morning Toby. Thanks" Swagger said looking back at Toby smiling. I pulled into the parking lot of a local diner and Swagger smiled widely. "I haven't been here since I was 12! I've always wanted to come back and say hi to the staff...and.."he cut himself off. His eyes sparkled like a little kid at a candy store when we got inside. He immediately looked over at a middle aged woman and smiled "hey Kim!" He said as he ran up to her. She looked up and smiled widely "Eric? is that my little man? omg you're all grown up! Oh we've all missed you here" she said as she hugged him. "I know. It's just I finally got away from my dad and I'm living with my friend Toby and her mom. I'll be able to come here now and see you guys" he said. Kim turned around and smiled "one second baby. Guys! Little Eric is back!" She yelled into the kitchen. A bunch of people came out and greeted Swagger, gave him hugs and told him happy birthday. Then, a bell rang "welp that's our cue. Time to get crackin' guys! Enjoy yourself Eric" Kim said. Kim kissed Swagger's cheek then went into the kitchen to get to work. Swagger came over to me and smiled "I love this place" he said. "I can tell" I said and we made our way to the group who were sitting at a huge table in the back of the restaurant. They all said happy birthday to Swagger and hi to me, then we sat down and started looking at the menus. Racc snickered "hey Swagger did you have a date before this?" Swagger looked at him confused "no why?". Racc pointed to his cheek "because you got lipstick on your face" Swagger laughed "oh yea the staff all know me here and Kim the manager was like a mom to me growing up. She's also my godmom. She's known me since I was born. I stopped coming here when I turned 12 because my dad got full custody of me and he was broke also he didn't want me to have any connection with anyone who knew my mom. I guess Kim was just happy to see me" Swagger said. "That's really awesome" Mason said and everyone else nodded "she's awesome. I wish I would've started coming here earlier then maybe I'd get special treatment too" Matt said. Swagger just rolled his eyes as everyone else laughed.

Swagger's POV (again)
As we were about to leave Fitz stopped me and pointed at the wall near the kitchen door "hey Swagger is that you?" He asked as he pointed at a photo. "Omg those are all pictures of me from when I was born up to when I was 12! I was with Kim in all of them...and some have my mom" I smiled softly as I stared at my Mom's face for a second. "I kept all these pictures for about 16 years now. Oh how the years slip away... I hope you have a great day Eric and you better come to see me" Kim said while giving me a huge hug. "I will. I promise. I love you Kimmy" I said as I pulled away from the hug slowly. "I love you too Baby. Here happy birthday from all of us here and...your mom. She didn't really want you to get her stuff until your 18th birthday, but 16 is close enough. I think it's time" Kim smiled softly. I took the giant envelope and hugged Kim again tightly. "We should take a picture since this is my first time back. The wall of me can finally continue" I said and Kim nodded. Fitz took my phone and took the picture of me and Kim standing next to each other smiling (she's still taller than me. Fucking heels).
No one's POV
As the day went on Swagger went through his classes like normal, but he still had a thought lingering in the back of his mind. What's in the envelope?....
