Tutoring

39

Jacob, Kiley, Logan, Mia, Shawn, Millie, Nathan, Izzy, Noah, and Emma just graduated. Old asses, is what Emma keeps calling them. Erin and Lily have finally met and already love each other.

The parents went home with the siblings while the graduates separated into five groups, each with their significant other, gets in cars and go to a restaurant.

They take a seat at a long table and order as usual, talking to whoever is next to them until they get their food.

"You gonna reveal yourself, later?" Jacob asks.

"On?" Emma asks. "Wait. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I am."

"What's that mean?" Millie asks.

"Ever heard of Miss Young?"

"Yes." Mia and Izzy nod.

"You guys fans?" Noah asks.

"Yes."

"Oh, my fans. Miss Young is me." Emma smiles.

"No way." Mia doubts.

"Yup."

"Dude, what?" Izzy asks.

"I'm telling everyone who I am tomorrow."

"Can I be in the video?" Noah asks.

"Yeah, of course. I'ma be all dramatic and take the wig off, then the mask all while still singing."

"You don't even need to go to college." Mia states.

"You're already sorta famous." Izzy agrees.

"I might not stay all four years, but I am going." Emma nods.

"Why not?" Nathan asks.

"Hate school-"

"The fuck?"

"Since when?" Shawn asks.

"Oh, I despise it. I just keep my grades up, so I don't have to stay back and am nice to the teachers, because I wanna be. Still hate that ugly building. Burn in hell."

"Oh?" Noah laughs.

"Anyway. Don't think I can last four whole years of only seeing my bitch on holidays and summer."

"Haha! You're her bitch." Nathan points at Noah.

"Yeah, I know." He sighs.

"You don't think, you just straight up wouldn't last." Kiley states.

"Correct." Emma chuckles.

"Mutual." Noah shrugs quietly down at his plate, receiving a giggle, making him smile.

"Hmm?" Nathan teases.

"What'd you say?" Jacob continues.

"So fracken nosy." Emma chuckles.

"We just wanna know." Shawn shrugs.

"What's so bad about that?" Logan asks.

"If you're hoping for something juicy, sorry to crush your dreams." Emma gives them a tight lipped smile.

"All I said was mutual." Noah chuckles.

"Boring." The girls sing.

Emma and Noah look at each other with unamused faces, smiling when they do the same thing.

Emma keeps getting her hair in her face and goes to put it up when Noah looks over and quickly pulls her hands down to her lap.

"What?" She chuckles.

"You got another one." He points.

"Hickey?"

"Yeah."

"Dude. You're gonna give me one before I leave, right?"

"Of course."

"Cool. Just making sure."

"Never leave you empty handed."

"Unbruised neck."

"Same thing."

"Boi."

"Hmm?"

"Oh, my." She sighs.

"Pardon?"

"I love you, bub."

"Ha. I love you, too."
