Chapter 2
[A present…]
I came back downstairs rocking a pair of black skinny pants, a tank top, and a black button up vest.
“Wow, Hale, you make Nick’s clothes look pretty good,” Joe said.
“Why thank you…” I said, modeling the clothes. I tripped in the middle off my “runway walk” and fell on the floor, and then I started rolling around laughing.
“DOG PILE!!!” Nick called out, and jumped on me. Joe followed suit and jumped on top of him.
“Joe you’re fat!” Nick said, as Joe got off of him.
“Please… that’s all muscle!” Joe said.
“Okay….” Nick teased.
“So…. what are we gonna do today?” I asked.
“Well I was thinking hit up the mall. I mean we all are gonna need some new clothes for the tour.” Joe suggested.
“YAY SHOPPING!” I said excitedly.
“Yea, well just wait till Kevin gets back,” Joe said.
“Where is K-Dog anyway?” I asked.
“You’ll see…” Nick said mysteriously.
I gave him a weird look, but shook off what he had said.
Kevin came back about ten minutes later and he was holding something behind his back.
“What is that?” I asked with a little giggle.
“First, you tell me why you’re dressed like Nick?” he asked.
I looked down at my clothes.
“Long story… now your turn.” I said
“Well,” Nick cut in, “We were going to wait until you birthday, but with the tour coming up, now seemed like the perfect time,”
I looked from each boy’s face, confused.
Kevin pulled out a black guitar case with a big red bow on it.
“You can’t be serious!” I said in disbelief.
“OPEN IT!” Joe commanded.
I unzipped the case to reveal a cherry red electric guitar.
“OH MY GOSH!!!!” I screamed.
“I thought you might like it,” Nick said, as I hugged him.
“THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!” I said.
“Yea, we just thought you might need it for the tour,” Kevin said.
“Aw you guys are so sweet,” I said, bringing myself back.
“So… to the mall?” Joe asked.
“Yes… TO THE MALL!” I said in a super hero voice.
