"we'll be back in a few hours, okay? there's food in the fridge, and don't forget to feed the cows before you go to bed," seb's mom rushed out as she pulled on her jacket. she went to zip up his little sister's coat.

seb's parents were taking seb's little sister and brother to their school's winter dance. seb's other siblings were older, and either in college or staying somewhere else, so he was gonna be the only one in the house.

seb's mom kissed him on the head as his dad clapped his shoulder. his brother and sister, lily and michael, gave him quick hugs around his middle, then scurried out the door.

seb took in a great breath. peace and tranquility at last, he thought. he made sure the door was locked, and then made his way to the kitchen. being the middle child and having to cook for his siblings all the time, he was able to make mac and cheese without burning the house down.

afterwards, seb quickly went out to the barn to tend to the animals for the night. seb liked spending time with the animals. they didn't judge him, or interrupt him when he was telling them about his day. they just listened.

back in his room, seb just lay on his bed, bored. it was kind of weird not having anyone in the house. and scary. he was so used to always hearing pots clanging, or his siblings running around, or some noise that would always tick him off.

bzzz bzzz

seb picked up his phone to check who it was. he assumed it was his mom, just checking in. or maybe mrs jenn, asking him something about the show.

Elton John: hey, can i talk to you? i'm kind of having a crisis

seb got a confused look on his face as he sat up on his bed. why was ej caswell texting him at seven pm? it's not like they hated each other, they've had pleasant conversations before. seb even hugged him once. but they weren't besties either.

seb opened the message and began typing.

sure, what's up?

i kinda don't want to talk about this over text. my parents go through my phone a lot, and i don't want them to know about this.

can i call you?

my parents are home and i don't want them to walk in on me talking about it either.

if seb was confused before, he was royally perplexed now. did something happen? why does he sound scared?

do you want to come over? nobody's home rn

if you're sure, i don't want to impose or anything

seb smiled to himself. so he does care, he thought.

ofc. it's not like i'm doing anything anyways. i'm going a little crazy.

👍🏻👍🏻 i'll be there in a bit

seb got up off his bed. good thing my room is cleaned, he thought. but then it hit him. ej caswell is going to be over my house. he wants to ask me for advice. what?
