Cance poured my cereal for me.

I smile at him.

He glances at me.

"You know, if it weren't for how Jasmine avoids boys, I wouldn't let you hang out with her. She's trouble. I'm keepin an eye on you too."

Sam carried his empty cereal bowl to the sink.

"Keep both eyes on her Cance. The idiot."

I flinch.

"Why, what'd she do now?"

Sam rolled his eyes, but didn't say anything else.

I worriedly looked around the room.

"Guys, seriously! She's my best friend! WHAT DID SHE DO?"

Blake put an arm around my shoulder.

"We're just teasing. But knowing Jasmine, she's got something planned. Watch it Jor."

I grin up at him.

"You guys worry too much!"

"And you don't worry enough," Cance fired back.

My mom sighs, "And it's normally the other way around..."

My brothers laugh.

Michael stood up from the table.

"Well I'm gonna go."

Mom looks at him.

"Okay but where are you heading?"

Jackson grins.

"I bet Mike got himself a girlfriend!"

Michael blushed, " Oh cut it, Jack."

I gasp and fall backwards into Blake's arm.

"He DOES have a girlfriend! Who is it, Mike? Ashley? Morgan? Madeline?"

Mom pretends to shoo us away with her towel.

"Come on guys, let him alone. We all knew he'd get one someday."

Cance grabbed my arm.

"Go get your shoes, Jor! You're coming with me! Blake and Jack, you too."

We don't question him.

I run up to my room and grab my mint sneakers.

I quickly braid my long brown hair into one braid down my back and rush downstairs.

Yelling bye to my mom I run out closing the front door behind me.

Cance had the car already started.

"Sorry! I had to do my hair," I offered as I got into the back seat.

Jackson rolled his eyes.

"Ugh girls and their hair."

I playfully punch him.

"Hey! You guys are lucky! You just have to comb yours!"

"Actually," Remarked Blake from the front seat, "I was thinking of growing my hair out so I could wear a man bun."

Jackson smirked, "Me too."

I gagged, "I have officially disowned you."

Cance chuckled, "I did that years ago."

I nod thoughtfully, "Smart."

Jackson piped up, "Where are we going anyway?"

Cance made a left turn.
