FOUR!

evies pov:
(reminder: thoughts are in bold!)

he flattens out my bed head and then goes back to his game with steven. i grab a bowl and put some cereal in it and grab the milk from the fridge.

"i want to finish your leftover cereal milk when you're done" jeremiah says with a mouth full of blueberries. i laugh and nod my head. i sit down next to belly at the table with susannah and my mom.

"so i already asked belly but i was wondering do you want to take part in the debutante ball?"

i almost choke on my cereal when she says this. "look susannah i love you but do you actually think that i'm gonna be apart of a deb ball?"

"see mom i told you she would say no" conrad says not looking up from his phone

"belly said she would consider!" susannah replies

"BELLY? you're gonna be a debutante?" i exclaim

"well maybe, it's a good opportunity to meet new people"

"when i said this summer felt like it was gonna be different i didn't mean THAT different. who are you and what have you done with my sister" i laugh

"oh shut up, you should do it!" belly says

"god no it's enough that you're doing it, it'll be way too expensive"

"it's on me" susannah says

"beck.." my mom says

"no it was my idea i pay. and don't feel like you have to if you don't want to"

"i'll consider"

everyone besides susannah stops in their tracks and looks at me with a look of what the fuck

"whys everyone looking at me like that?"

"so your telling me that EVELYN CONKLIN is gonna be a debutante. jeez did hell freeze over or something?" steven says

"i said maybe! that's not a yes"

"okay enough about debutantes, there's a party tonight and i was wondering if you two wanted to go" jeremiah asks me and belly

"obviously" i say

"yeah sure" belly says

"alright sick"

...

i step out of the shower and put some hair products in my hair to control the frizz. i change into my new ripped jean shorts and a black cropped tanktop. as i exit the bathroom i bump into someone.

i know that smell from anywhere

"oh my god jere i'm so sorry!"

"oh no worries!" he smiles

"honestly this is perfect, i was actually gonna show you something that i found in a box in the closet, do you have like 5 minutes?"

"i'm running late for work, is it okay if you show me later? i'm sorry! or you can stop by the pool and tell me what it is"

"sure! i'll stop by the pool sometime"

"alright, cya!" he smiles and rushes down the stairs

i don't think i can remember a time where jeremiah wasn't smiling, he's always so happy. and his smile lights up a whole room. i go back into my room and take a picture on my phone of the thing i was gonna show him. i help clean around the house and decide to get ready to go visit jere at work.
