Chapter 12
~*~ The phone call ~*~
"Hi Kendra its Frankie."
'Oh hey cuz. What's up?"
"Not a whole lot. You?"
"Just going to get something to eat. Why?"
"Well stop. Go back to your car and bring Jaimie home. Bring Matt and Greg here to your house."
"To my house, why? We're in Portland. Getting ready to eat."
"Kendra, your parents are home."
"Why?" I asked stopping on the sidewalk near the door.
"Because their trip got cut short due to weather. And you might want to get home. They found the ring box!"
"Oh shit." I yelled.
"What? What's wrong?" Greg asked.
"My parents are home. And you'll never guess what they found."
"What?"
"The ring box."
"Oh no."
"Yeah. Ok Frankie we'll be home in like 45 minutes. Ok?"
"Yeah whatever. Just hurry because they're trying to get what's going on out of Jesse and me."
"Ok just do me one huge favor try and take their minds off it, and don't tell them anything."
"Kendra, I wouldn't tell them if my life depended on it."
"Promise Frankie?"
"Yes, you have my word on it."
"O-mgosh. I knew I loved you for some reason. Make sure Jesse doesn't say anything either."
"Ok I'll see you soon. Bye."
"Bye Frankie. I love you and thanx bunches."
"Your welcome. And I love you too cuz." With that I hung up and saved Matt, Jaimie, and Greg from a crowd of screaming fans.
"Kendra what's going on?"
"Yeah I thought we were going to get something to eat, then go shopping." Jaimie said.
"Well we had a big change of plans. My parents are home. And they found the ring box."
"Ohh." Matt said.
"Not good." Jaimie added.
"Duah." I said pulling on to the highway. "If it was a good thing do you think I'd be panicking or going home?"
"No, not really." Matt said.
"Kendra." Greg said.
"What?"
"Stop panicking. I've got it all under control. Trust me. I've thought it over and I have an idea."
"And do you mind telling me this idea."
"Yes I mind. You just have to go along and trust me."
"Ok, ok. I'll do my best."
"Do your best? Come on Kendra, you can do better then that for Greg." Matt said.
"I know, I know. But if I don't know what he's going to say to them how am I supposed to play along. I will do my best, to play along."
"Ok, ok. That's all I ask for." He said kissing my hand.
"Good, because that's all I can give you." I said. Jaimie burst out laughing. "No Jaimie not like that."
"Yeah well you said it!" she said still laughing so hard that I started laughing.
"You girls are gross." Matt said.
"I agree with Jaimie though." Greg said. I slapped him in the arm. "Ouch. That hurt."
"Good. Now think of what your going to say to my parents we're back home and have about two minutes til we're literally at my house."
"Ok, ok. I get the point. I'm sorry." The car went silent. When we got to my house we all walked in like we didn't know what was going on.
"Mom, dad what are you doing home today?"
"Good question." My dad said.
"Where's Jess?"
"At your grandmothers." My mom answered.
"Ok, why didn't you bring her home?"
"Good question." My dad answered.
"Should the three of us leave?" Greg asked. I elbowed him in the stomach.
"No you three shouldn't leave but if Jaimie and Matt wouldn't mind stepping into the living room and waiting with Frankie and Jesse. That would be great." My dad said.
"Hi Kendra its Frankie."
'Oh hey cuz. What's up?"
"Not a whole lot. You?"
"Just going to get something to eat. Why?"
"Well stop. Go back to your car and bring Jaimie home. Bring Matt and Greg here to your house."
