"And Trent insisted he stay with you guys?" The brunette looked at the goth who sighed dropping a box of cereal in her cart. "Yes, Court. Ugh, I feel like a guest in my own house. I don't know how long he's gonna stay here but I think I need to stay with someone else till he leaves. He's so... unsanitary." Courtney made a face as she put a box of cereal in her own cart. "I hateeee people like that, god." the two began to walk towards the register continuing their conversation. "Yeah, me too. That's why we got along so well." "Very true. I was just a little more clean than you." Courtney pointed out as Gwen scoffed. "A little?! your uptight ass is definitely not just a little more clean or whatever. You we-" "first of all, you sound like Duncan i'm gonna need you to stop." Courtney stopped her looking at her before they both burst out laughing.

"You need to relax." Heather raised an eyebrow in disbelief at what she had just heard. "Oh hell no. Let me ge-" "Sit down!" Her mouth then dropped as she looked at the person beside her.

It's not good for you or the baby." "Listen to Bridgette, babe. You left her in charge plenty of other times." Another louder huff came from her lips as she stood up. "What the hell ever. I'm going the fuck home." The sound of her heels against the floor made the silence between the two in the room even more noticeable. "Don't worry about her. Just be really considerate and sweet when you guys get home." He gave her an appreciative nod before walking out following after his pregnant girlfriend.

"So, bro when are you going to introduce me to your friends?" The redhead asked as he sat the island in the couple's kitchen looking at his step brother. "You know actually, me and Gwen are actually going to see them all tomorrow. If you're free you can join us. Our buddy is actually proposing his pregnant girlfriend." With an ever so small smirk, that you could only detect if you actually knew of his plan. He nodded patting his brother on his shoulder. "Of course I'll come, Trent. It'll be great."
