I head out of school to my mom's car, I'm guessing she took today off.

I hop in the car. "Hi."

"Did you tell Megan? Or Peter?" She asked.

"Yes, I did." I say as I strap in.

"Good, now want to watch a movie when we get home?" She asks as she drives off.

"Sure." I said.

I watched out the window and saw someone sneak out of school. Whoever that is they're in serious trouble.

When we got home I went to sit on the couch and got the TV ready. I start getting a call and I groan.

I grab my phone and answer my phone, it was Evie.

"Evie, why are you calling me you're supposed to be in school." I groaned, she sometimes (actually always) gets in trouble for being smart. Like the kind where your mom says 'stop being smart with me' yah, like that.

"I-" She tried to speak.

I interrupted. "Did you get detention and you're trying to entertain your-"

"Eve!" She yells into the phone.

"I got kicked out of school for the rest of the day." She says.

"How the heck did you do that?!" I asked her.

"I defended you. Flash was saying you were," she coughed. "Beautiful, and I might've punched him in the face." She says.

My jaw dropped. "Well- you- you didn't need to-" I coughed. He never called me that in front of my face, ever, does he do that a lot when I'm not around? "What a-a snake!"

"That's why I punched him, so can I come over? So my mom doesn't get angry?" She asks.

"Yeah... But we'll be watching a movie." I say.

Well, I'm glad she stood up for me, but she shouldn't have gotten kicked out of school for the day for me.

"Was Peter around?" I ask.

"No, he bolted after you left. I don't know where though." She says.

Both of my best friends are insane, no offense, but they are. Wait is that who I saw running out of school?

"Okay, see you soon." I say.

"Actually, see you now." She opened the front door and ended the call.

"What the heck!" I place my phone down.

She runs to the couch and jumps onto it.

My mom comes to the couch with a bowl of popcorn and a confused look. "Party of three?" She asks.

"Yup. So what are we gonna watch?" Evie asks.

"I was thinking Confessions of a Shopaholic." My mom said as she sat down on the couch with a big bowl of popcorn.

After the movie, my dad was home and my mom went to make coffee, so I and Evie headed into the room.

"Can I sleepover?" She asks as we sat on the bed.

"Only if you tell your parents why you got out early." I say as I raise an eye row.

"Fine." She groans.

She calls them and explains everything as I look up some movies we can watch.
