Parker's POV:
Never thought I'd say this, but Jake looks so hilarious right now.
"Mom, are you sure I'm supposed to be wearing this like this?" he asked.
"Of course!" she answered.
"Uh- should we tell him that those are for girls?" Emily whispered to me biting back her laugh.
"Let's just have fun for few more minutes." I said trying hard not to laugh.
But, if you wanna know what he's wearing, let's just say there's a really formal event tonight and mom's making him wear a suit. But he already has a pair of dress pants so we're just looking for a dress shirt for him and mom just picked one off the girl's section.
"But why are the buttons on the left?" he asked.
"It's a dress shirt, just get used to it." She replied.
"Okay, we have to tell him now." Emily said.
"Your turn." I said.
"Fine," she said.
"Hey, Jake, you know that's a girl's dress shirt?" she asked.
"What?" he yelled.
"Yea, why do you think the buttons are on the left instead of the right?" I asked.
"Mom!" he complained.
"Sorry, I didn't know!" she said. "Parker, please go find something for him."
"Fine," I said dragging Jake to the BOYS section.
"You and Emily knew this all along." He glared.
"Yea, what'd you think? I've gotten dragged into this 7 years ago. It's your turn now." I said.
"Whatever," he said.
"Come on, try this on and go show mom." I said pushing him towards the change room and handing him a dress shirt that should fit him.
I walked back to where Emily was and sat down beside her.
"You know, how long has it been since Leah and dad went to get icecream?" she asked.
"About 10 minutes but you know dad, he's probably still trying to choose what flavour he wants while Leah watches him have a debate with himself." I said.
"True, did you find something for Jake?" she asked.
"No, cause if I hadn't I would come sit down with you without Jake." I said sarcastically. "Of course I found something for him!"
"Whatever," she said.
My phone started vibrating as soon as she said that.
To: Parker
From: Dad
Tell mom 2 meet bck at the hotel. I dnt think dads gonna choose wat he wnts by the time ur don
-Leah
To: Dad
From: Parker
K, gud luck trying 2 convince him what he wants
"Who was that from?" Emily asked.
"Leah, she said to tell mom to just meet them back at the hotel." I said.
"Okay, can I see your phone for a second?" she asked.
"Why?" I asked cautiously. The last time I let her use my phone, she wrecked it so badly that there was no way to get it fixed and we had to replace it.
"So I can ask Leah something." She said as if it was so obvious what she was about to do.
"Fine," I said handing it to her.
I looked down at her to see what she was typing.
To: Dad
From: Parker
Lea, if u still have the phone, ask dad 2 get me a chocolate cone nd dad, if this is u, can I plz hav a chocolate cone?
-Emily
"That's nice Em." I said.
"I know but I really want icecream right now." She said.
"What do you think?" Jake asked appearing out of nowhere.
"Fits you perfectly," Emily said.
"Better than the other one." I said.
"Whatever, mom said I have to get this one." He said.
"Jacob Blake Delgado! I thought I told you to change back into your clothes!" mom said.
"Sorry mom!" he exclaimed hurrying off to the change room.
"Ooh, full name. He's so in trouble." Emily whispered.
"What about you Ms. Emily Courtney? Don't you get into trouble about as much as him?" I asked being formal.
"Why, I do get into trouble but I do not get in as much as he does Mr. Parker Travis." She said sounding formal as well.
"Very well Ms. Emily Courtney. I do believe we should stop talking like this now." I said.
"Yes we should." She said.
"What are you two doing?" mom asked.
"Practicing being formal." I said.
"If you want to be formal, maybe you two should practice the Waltz." She said.
"Mom, Parker had to rehearse that just for the play last year. And he rehearsed it with Keanna and I'm pretty sure they're gonna stick together all night." Emily said.
"It's true, I did have to learn it for the after-wedding scene." I said.
"Well, teach Emily then! Oh and Em, Olivia's bringing Keanna to help you look for a dress." She said.
"First, I don't want to learn the dance, second, do I have to go?" Em asked.
"Okay, you don't have to learn the dance but you have to go. Parker and Jake are going." Mom said.
"Yea, but Jake's probably gonna dish out all the food and Parker actually has a reason he should go." Emily said.
"And what would that reason be?" someone asked from behind. Emily and I turned around to find Aunt Liv and Keanna. I'm guessing Keanna asked that.
"Hi Aunt Liv, hey Kea," Emily said.
"Hey Aunt Liv, hey Keanna." I said.
"Aww, aren't you gonna give your girl a hug or something?" Emily teased.
"Shut up." I said.
"Make me," she answered.
"Isn't this the same argument Kayleigh and David had before we left?" aunt Liv asked Keanna.
"Yea," she answered. "But really, why does he have a reason to go?"
"Cause you're gonna be there." She said.
"Huh- that's the same thing Landon said earlier. Well, except you weren't there but he was complaining why he had to go and stuff." Keanna said.
"Where's Leah and Charlie?" Aunt Liv asked.
"I don't know, they were supposed to be back few minutes ago." Mom said.
"Uh- about that..." I started.
"What did they say?" mom sighed.
"Leah texted me saying dad's taking way too long to pick a flavour so that they'll just meet us back at the hotel." I said.
"Mom, what do you want me to do with this shirt now?" Jake asked.
"Just hand it to me." She said.
"Did you have a hectic day?" Keanna asked.
"Mom picked a dress shirt from the girl's section at first for Jake." I said.
"And he was a mean brother trying not to laugh with Emily for few minutes instead of telling me." Jake said glaring at Emily and I.
"Sorry Jake but if it was Landon, which I doubt would ever happen, I would have done the same thing." Keanna said.
"Keanna Bridgit Gifford!" Aunt Liv scolded.
"Sorry mom." She said. Since she was behind her mom, she mouthed the words 'I so would have done the same thing.' Emily and I were the only ones to catch this and we started laughing.
And to think this is just the beginning of today.
Well, I have no practice, I finished all the homework I need done by tomorrow so I guess you got this chapter... This chapter was inspired by me thinking about the fact I have to go back to my mom's at the end of the week. I have no idea why that inspired this chapter but it did. Being back to school wasn't hard as I thought except for one detail: My best friends. The first thing I get when I'm back in school is Lexi attacking me… Apparently since our group is back together again, its dare time… We made 4 dares this time and I got Ashlee, she got Isabelle, Isabelle got Lexi and Lexi got me… I hate it when Lexi gets to make up dares for me... Her dares are the worst! She dared me to 1. Do whatever my sisters tells me to do for a week (And she actually checks with them to make sure) 2. Write a HSM fanfic (She knows how much Eva loves HSM and how I always have to watch it with her… And how much I don't like the movie...) 3. Publish it… 4. Do the vote thingy she made and post it on my profile… If anyone who has me on author alert and hates the movie gets an email saying there's a new fanfiction from me that involves the topic above, feel free to go after Lexi. But I got a pro and cons list today! I finally started grade 8 math and French and my schedule is so different! Our school runs on a seven day cycle and I got so confused today! For example, my Day 1 was: French 7-LA Honours 7-Drama-Math Honours 7-Lunch-Social Honours 7-Gym-Art 7-Science 7 and now I have Gym-Math 8-Science 7-Computers 7-Lunch-French 8-Art 7-LA Honours 7-Drama... A lot's changed... Anyway, I'm gonna get back on topic cause I'm pretty sure that's boring to you. The only reason I'm doing a formal event is because I know in one of the chapters Bridgett wrote for me, she wrote that they're NOT gonna be in the city of love for Valentine's Day and well, let's just say the 3 chapters before this are actually one day and it still is the same day this chapter and the next one. Anyway, the only reason I chose it to be formal is because I still have the prom scene from HSM3 stuck in my head. I hate Eva's love for that movie. She watched it at least 6 times during our trip. This chapter was 2000 words counting the A/N. I hope this'll make up for the lack of updates I'm probably gonna have soon. Anywho... Hope you enjoyed!

Oh, and I forgot to ask this. I need a conflict happening between Parker and Keanna! Any ideas? It's just gonna last for a week at the longest and I'm probably gonna get them back together after a chapter or two but still, I need something happening between them. They're in high school, I don't think their relationship's not gonna have any bumps. Anyway, if you can please tell me, PLEASE DO! Thanks :)
