Note: I edited the first chapter, but it didn't save my changes so this is what the ending is supposed to say.
Blackburn: Whatever we just walked into must wait to be discussed we have to leave soon. We need to debrief right now so we are prepared. The girls can stay with Alana at Jason's house together for tonight or for however long we are gone just like they always do.
Jason: I'll get in touch with her and let her know so she can set out the sleeping bags and go grocery shopping if she needs to.
Me: The girls and I can go grocery shopping for her.
Jason: Not a chance. (He said to me with raised eyebrows letting me know he was serious)
Blackburn: I'll get someone to take the girls to your house, so we don't have to worry about them going anywhere else. (He said talking to dad. He gave Cassidy a hug and told her he loved her then he walked out to go to the meeting.)
Jason: When we are gone be good for you mother. Do you understand me?
Me: Yes sir.
Sonny: They better all be good. (He said glaring at Jennifer.)
Just then Jennifer's phone rang When We by Tank, she silenced it and she was lucky when Brian Armstrong came into the room.
Brian: Are you ladies ready?
All: Yes.
We gave our dads/brother a hug, told them we loved them and vice versa and then we walked out of the room with Brian.
Jennifer: You changed my ringtone, didn't you? (she asked Michaela)
Michaela: Yep.
Jennifer's phone rang again just as we got outside, and she answered it.
Jennifer: Hello. Yes. Would you calm down I was wearing a helmet. They have been riding motorcycles all their lives. Because they are good guys. I don't want to fight with you. I know. I love you to. Bye.
We walked over to the golf cart stop with Brian to wait for a ride.
Me: Jennifer and I are going to walk to my house if that's ok.
Brian: Nope, I don't want anyone out of my sight I supposed to stay with you guys until you are at your house.
Me: Ok, I understand.
I walked closer to Jennifer so we could talk without Brian listening.
Me: Was that Jim?
Jennifer: Yep, he's pissed, and so is Derek.
Me: Shit.
Jim Barnes is Jennifer's boyfriend, and Derek Hale is my boyfriend. We started dating freshman year when Jennifer and I were fifteen and Jim and Derek were eighteen-year-old seniors. Now we are sixteen and they are nineteen. Our parents don't know we are dating them because they would freak. My phone started ringing Happy Girl by Martina McBride letting me know mom was calling me, so I pulled my phone out of my pocket. I chose Happy Girl by Martina McBride for when my mom calls because it's her favorite song.
Me: Hello.
Mom: Hannah, I need you to go to the commissary to buy groceries for me.
Me: Dad said I was supposed to stay home.
Mom: And I understand why he wants you to stay home but I need you to go buy some things for tonight. You can take Kendall with you, but the other ladies need to come and stay here. Ok?
Me: Yes mam.
Mom: I'll send you a list so you can just grab your jeep out of the driveway when you get home.
Me: We can just walk there.
Mom: I don't want you to have to carry everything.
Me: Ok.
Mom: See you soon. (She said as she hung up the phone.)
Me: It looks like we are going grocery shopping. (I said to Jennifer.)
Lyla: Can we go?
Me: Nope, my mom said only Kendall and I can go.
Ashley: She's making sure you don't get in more trouble by sending Kendall. She knows if she sends Jennifer with you, you guys would surely get into trouble.
Jennifer: Hey!
Cassidy: You know it's true.
Jennifer: I know.
Lyla: Plus, Sonny would be pissed if he knew you went anywhere other than Hannah's house.
Jennifer: If we stay on base though we can't get in much trouble.
Michaela: Sure, you can.
It took five minutes for us to be able to get in a golf car and head to my house. It took another fifteen minutes to arrive at my house. I grabbed my keys out of my purse and walked over to my purple four door jeep wrangler unlocking it. Kendall and I got in and we headed to the commissary. I pulled into a parking spot far away from the door, so I wasn't parked near anyone, because I didn't want someone to hit my jeep with their door or basket. After I parked, I pulled up the list on my phone that my mom sent me.
Kendall: Are we getting a lot of stuff?
Me: Yeah.
We hopped out of my jeep and headed into the commissary. After we walked in, I grabbed a basket and we proceeded to shop. We got the stuff that was on the list which was a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables, a few frozen vegetables, four frozen pizzas, four cases of water, popcorn. I decided to get a few things that weren't on the list.
Me: Should we make ice cream floats?
Kendall: That sounds good.
Me: What kind of soda should we get?
Kendall: I'll make a group chat and text the girls.
In less that a minute everybody voiced their opinions on what kind of soda they wanted for their floats. Big Red and Coke were the two flavors listed. So, we grabbed two containers of Bluebell vanilla ice cream, a 2-liter big red, and a 2-liter coke. After we got done shopping, I paid with my debit card, I knew mom would just reimburse me. After I paid, I helped Kendall put the groceries in bags and into the cart. After everything was in the car the cashier handed me my receipt and we headed out to the jeep. After we loaded everything into the jeep we headed back to my house in complete silence. I wonder what Kendall was thinking about. I was thinking about dad and everyone hoping that they would be safe on their mission, she was probably thinking the same thing.
