"Uno. Now draw four cards."

"What? You cheated! Blair!"

Feeling aggressive tapping against my arm, I snapped from my daze and looked at Lana. Her face was frowned up and I tilted my head and pouted.

"What's the matter?" I pulled her to stand into my legs in front of the table. "Henry cheated!"

"I don't cheat," He scoffed from across the table and stared at me, "I'd never cheat. Only dickheads cheat," I raised my eyebrow and gave him a weird look. He noticed my expression and looked away.

"Hey, language," I warned, realizing just now.

"Let me see your cards," I told Lana and she handed me her ten decks of Uno cards. Three yellows, two reds, three greens, a reverse card, and a color change card. The color was blue so I threw out the reverse card then the color-changing card.

"Yellow," I called and Henry groaned, picking from the stack of colors. He threw out a yellow, followed by me tossing out a number five yellow card.

He smirked, thinking he had the game while revealing five red. I smirked back at him and
threw out Lana's three two red cards.

"Wait. You're playing color stacks right?"

He nodded and I smirked again.

"You're about to win?" I whispered in Lana's ear.

After grabbing multiple cards that weren't the right color, Lana ended up winning. Calling out Uno, she squealed and jumped into my arms.

"You helped. Now that's cheating," Henry scoffed.

"Man up you big baby," Lana sassed.

"Okay, stack the cards up and go give them back to Lacy," I tapped the table and they began cleaning.

As I searched for another game for us to play, my phone ring in my pocket. Answering as it was Dylan, I smiled and opened my mouth to speak but she interrupted me. "I have a big, colossal problem."

I stopped searching for board games and stood up on my feet. "What's wrong?" I frowned in confusion.

"I think I'm in love with two people."

Bursting Dylan's bedroom door open, she was seated on her bed already waiting for me. I wasted no time shutting her door back and sat down beside her, ready to listen. I was nervous and it wasn't even me.

She stared at her carpet floor for a while before pushing herself back on the bed, sitting crisscross apple sauce. I took a good look at her face and frowned. She had been crying I could tell.

Taking a deep breath, she spoke.

"You can say I told you so," she gave a pressed lipped smile and shrugged. Scooting closer, I looked puzzled. "What do you mean?" I questioned.
