AS soon as Stan was past the two doors Josi let out a large exhale of air she'd been holding in, "I told you" Margo mumbled her eyes still chasing after the words on the pages below her, "stop being a smart ass" Josi grumbled, Margo rolled her eyes turning to the next page in her book. "You're just mad that I know how to get around him" she retorted her tone neutral as she let her eyes wander over the bordering page.
Josi glanced at Mitch letting her eyes take in his figure once more, "I bet you're good in bed, aren't you?" someone cleared their throat from behind them drawing all but Margo's attention, "how was the lecture Josh?" she looked up from her book cocking her head slightly, he feigned a humorous look before offering her a frown, "you could've at least told me he was coming", Margo shrugged her shoulders feeling no regret over her decisions.
"And Josi- I really wish I hadn't heard that" he sighed, she rolled her eyes returning her gaze to Mitch, "you didn't answer the question" she spoke, he seemed visibly unbothered but as if he didn't want to answer. "no comment". Josi frowned and turned her attention back to Margo's hair. Aching for dinner, Josi did her best to finish braiding Margo's hair as quickly as possible before lunging off the bed and making her way to the exit, she glanced back at them waiting for the three of them to follow, "are you guys coming?" she questioned.
Josh nodded watching as Mitch and Margo both got up from their spots and followed behind her, Margo still held her book in hand reading as they went, Mitch watched as she went up the steps half expecting her to trip and faceplant- it was almost as if he wanted to prevent it from happening- but she flawlessly navigated the stairs taking a deep inhale as they stepped outside the smell of the trees bombing their senses.
"You're going to end up tripping one of these days" Josi stated as they walked around the side of the house to the front lawn, "highly unlikely but keep wishing" Margo mumbled turning to the next page, "what are you even reading?" Josh glanced from where he walked beside Josi to try and catch the title of said book, "war and peace" Margo replied casting him a brief look of annoyment- her way of attempting to tell him to leave her alone.
He quickly turned back to face the area ahead of him wondering what went on in the girl's mind half the time, Mitch glanced at her from the corner of his eye watching as her eyes flicked from line to line as she soaked up all the words like a sponge.
"How many times have you read that one?" Mitch asked, with an exaggerated sigh Margo closed her book and tucked it beneath her arm, glancing at him she answered, "over twelve times".
He didn't reply and instead averted his gaze back to what lay ahead of them as they approached the porch where the man from earlier was serving the regular terribly made sandwiches they had all learned to get over long ago.
