"Okay, pack up we're leaving," I yell throughout the house.
"Hey, babe, could you come in here?" Laken calls to Lenn.
"So, what are the arrangements for the car? Who's riding with who?" Jordan asks standing in the doorway of my room.
"I mean Laken and I are driving the cars back so you can choose, I guess." I reply
"I'm driving!" Isaac says from the kitchen
"Well, I think I'll ride with Laken," Jordan replies
"Oh, Jordan, you're breaking my heart," I respond holding my hand to my chest where my heart is.
"Sorry, Ridd," he says while walking toward his room.
"Isaac, come here," I whisper down the hall to him
"What is it?" he whispers back while walking toward me.
"Lenn will probably ride with us," I whisper while pulling him into the room.
"Why wouldn't she ride with Laken?" Isaac asks rather loudly
"Louder, Isaac, I don't think my dad can hear you in Canada!" I whisper-yell at him
"Oh, sorry." Isaac replies before biting into his sandwich he had made.
"Can I have a bite?" I change the subject
"Sure, fattie."
"Thanks and I'll tell you later. Let's go pack the cars."
"Mom? Dad? Where are you?" Jake yells and Jordan chuckles
"Am I mom?" I ask
"Yes, Where's dad?" Jake asks
"Loading the car. I'm younger than you, you imbecile."
"But you and Isaac are responsible like parents so I'm gonna call you mom and dad from now on," Jake says
"You're an idiot, you know that?" I respond while going back to my room.
"I get it from you, mom," Jake says while going to talk to Isaac
-
"Let's go, car's packed," Isaac says
We all begin to pack into the cars. Isaac, Lenn, and I in Lenn's car while Jordan, Jake, and Laken pack into Laken's truck.
About an hour into our ride home, Isaac asks why Lenn is riding with us and not Laken.
"Well, he cheated on me," Lenn says
"Is that what you were going to tell me?" Isaac whispers to me but Lenn heard.
"You knew?" Lenn asks
"Yeah. He told me at our lunch."
"And you didn't tell me?" Lenn questions
"Well, The point of these meetings is that we keep all things said a secret."
"What kind a best friend would do that? Who wouldn't told her best friend her boyfriend cheated on them?"
"He's my brother and I never would betray my brother like that."
"So your problem is that I'm dating your brother?"
"That's never been my problem. If it was the problem I would've told you that! You dating my brother has nothing to do with me. I set you guys up."
"Whatever, Ridd. I don't want to talk to you."
"Isaac, can you pull over?" I ask
"Sure, what's the problem?"
"I need to make call."
