I wake up with the sun blinding me. I lightly groan and turn away from the window, rubbing my eyes. As I wake up, I come to my senses and quickly grab my phone from my pocket and sigh in relief when I see it's only 5 pm and not the next day.
I relax back into my bed and unlock my phone to see all the notifications from the group chat.
I scroll up to the top seeing a video from Clyde. I click on it, and a warrior's cry blasts through my phone's speakers. My eyes widen as I quickly lower the volume and see that Bexley is laying across the table in a booth, tugging at Esme's phone while Esme has an ice cream shoved in her mouth tugging back. Esme's screams are muffled as the guys are laughing away watching the scene in front of them.
"Don't delete the group chat!" Bexley states as she tugs harder on the phone.
Esme gives a muffled response.
All of a sudden the phone is aimed at the floor.
A man's voice is heard, "Please quiet down. You are causing a disruption. If I have to ask you another time, you will be asked to leave."
Giggles erupt shortly after and the video ends.
I guess that explains the random texts from Esme.
I exit out of the video to see the unread texts.
Clyde: We were still kicked out...
Bexley: It wasn't my fault!!!!!
Clyde: When the manager walked away, Esme grabbed her phone back and you screamed like a banshee!
Bexley: The people needed a show, it was dead in there. I was kindly performing for their entertainment.
Esme: It's an ice cream parlor, you're just supposed to enjoy your ice cream!
Bexley: Nahh gotta spice it up
Esme: You all will be the death of me
Bexley: Aww love you too Esme 🤗
Clyde: You love us
Kaden: You do Esme, admit it!
Caspian: She definitely does, why else would she stick around for so long
Bexley: Ha ha, got cha!!!
Esme: Whatever, you're all still insufferable.
Clyde: ❤️
Esme: I'm the only thing that keeps you guys out of trouble :p
Kaden: She ain't wrong tho, she's the mom of the group
Caspian: Definitely, but more like an old granny
Clyde: You're right, I think I did see a gray hair or two.
Bexley: And always grumpy
Esme: I hate you all.
Bexley: ❤️
Caspian: ❤️
Kaden: ❤️
Clyde: ❤️
I'm smiling by the time I finish reading.
Everleigh: ❤️
Bexley: YOU'RE BACK!!!
Esme: Escape now while you can
Caspian: It's too late for that
Kaden: She's already one of us
Clyde: ONE OF US
ONE OF US
