⌜ chapter twelve ⌟
"I did not miss this place." Alec says, looking around as they walk through the trailer park to get to the Hunters'.
"Why did we even agree to this?" Reggie questions. "I hate it h— Ow!"
"Dude, shut the hell up." Tyler shakes his head at his brother.
"Shawn wants us here." Letty reminds them, leading the way. "So, shut up until after the pie."
"And then I can talk?" Reggie asks.
"No." The other three all say in unison.
"Shut your trap or I'll feed you to the goat." The brunette mutters as she leads the way through the trailer park.
"Should'a made him wear red." Tyler says, and she chuckles as she glances at the boys over her shoulder.
"What do you need your purse for?" Mr. Matthews' voice gets their attention, and they all stop arguing.
"Well, I just don't wanna leave it in the car, okay?" His wife tells him.
"Well, I don't wanna leave the car in the car, but we're stuck with it, okay?"
"I can't believe you guys." Eric says. "Just give me the keys to the car, I'll be more than happy to go and get the purse." He holds his hand out toward his dad.
"And when would you be back?" Mr. Matthews questions.
"Not comin' back."
"You know, I'm never taking you guys anywhere again." Cory tells them.
"And I am very surprised by this family's negative attitude." Mrs. Matthews says as she glances around at them.
"I have to go to the bathroom." Morgan says, and her mom leans down to her height.
"Not here, honey. Hold it till we get home." She tells her.
"Damn. Talk about privileged." Reggie says, gaining the Matthews' attention.
"You can use the bathroom in the Hunters' trailer, Morgan." Letty tells the little blonde. "We have less money, not poor hygiene." She says.
"Yeah, if that were the case, you'd have to sanitize your son." Reggie says, and Alec punches his arm, making him groan as he grabs where he was just hit.
"Didn't I tell you to stop talking 'til after pie?" Letty questions as she glances briefly in his direction. "And Eddie's in juvie, so your purse is fine." She adds as she looks at Mrs. Matthews.
