Note: Kevin 17, Joe 16, Nick 12, Frankie 4(ages change later in the story)
"Should I call?" I asked.
"I'd wait 'till she called," Joe said.
"Then it's not very special to Kevin's love dove," Nick said.
"Come on guys," I said.
"Call her," Nick said.
"Don't call her," Joe said.
"Listen to me Kev. I've been in an awesome relationship for 11 months, 3 weeks, 2 days, 13 hours, and 23 minutes, not that we're counting," Nick said.
"Don't listen to him. He still has a girly high pitched voice! Listen to me! I'm mature, unlike little Nicky here," Joe said.
"Hey, don't bring my voice into this! I'm gonna be 13 in 4 days, give it time!" Nick said.
"Shut up!" Joe said.
"No, you shut up!" Nick said.
"Make me!" Joe said. Nick launched at Joe and wrestled him. Nick had an advantage since he did karate and wrestling. He had Joe in a head lock in no time.
"Let me go! Let me go! Let me go!" Joe yelled.
"Make me!" Nick said. My phone rang it was Danielle.
"Guys! It's Danielle!" I said. Joe and Nick sat next to me.
"Hello," I said.
"Hi Kevin, its Danielle," Danielle said.
"Oh, hey Danielle," I said. Why was my mouth dry?
"So, I was wondering, if you weren't busy, would you like to go out for coffee tomorrow before our first class? And, uh, maybe have lunch together too?" Danielle asked. Nick and Joe nodded their heads furiously.
"Uh, sure. Does 7:30 at Starbucks sound fine?" I asked.
"Perfect!" Danielle said.
"Well, I'll see you then," Kevin said.
"Okay," Danielle giggled excitedly. I don't understand girls at all. "Bye Kevin."
"Bye Danielle, see you tomorrow," I said.
"Kevin's got a date! Kevin's got a date!" Nick and Joe repeated.
"Shut up," I said.
"Kevin, how are you gonna get there?" Joe asked.
"The usual: skateboard," I said.
"Dude, she's gonna think you're lame!" Joe said.
"You try to buy a car while working part-time for minimum wage at Dairy Queen," I said. I picked up my skateboard. Was it that lame to be 17 and skateboarding to college? I don't have enough money for a car. Between Joe, Nick, Frankie, and myself always finding some way to end up sick or injured, I sure wasn't gonna ask my parents.
"It'll have to work bro. I ride a scooter to school and Macy told me she found it really cool that I don't take a bus to school," Nick said.
"You're 12," Joe started.
"13 in 4 days," Nick interrupted.
"Kevin is 17. There's a gigantic gap between riding a scooter to the 8th grade," Joe continued.
"I'm a freshman," Nick interrupted again.
"And riding a skateboard to college," Joe said. He turned to Nick.
"Since when do you go to high school?" Joe asked.
"Since this school year, did your brain suddenly stop collecting information?" Nick asked.
"Shut up," Joe said.
"No you shut up!" Nick said.
"You wanna go again?" Joe asked.
"Oh, so you can be put in a head lock by your little brother?" Nick asked.
"Nick! Its time for you and Frankie to go to bed!" Mom yelled.
"Wait 'till tomorrow," Nick said. A four year old boy ran into the room.
"Nicky, we go beddy bye!" Frankie exclaimed.
"Come on Frankster," Nick said.
"Beddy bye! Beddy bye! Beddy bye!" Frankie cheered as he and Nick went into their room next to ours.
"Kevin, Joseph! Time for bed as well," Mom said. Joe changed into his pajamas, as did I. I turned the lights off and laid in bed.
"Kevin's gotta date! Kevin's gotta date!" Joe said.
"If you wanna make it past 16, I suggest you shut up," I threatened. Joe remained quiet and fell asleep. Was I really going on a date with Danielle?
I had fun with this chapter!
