• Me and Jake hugged the strange new "dad" back. "Um... I do not feel comfertable calling you dad. What's your real name?" He looked down at me like I was crazy. "Fine you may call me, Jeff... And for you Jacob?" Jacob looked up. "I'll call ya dad." He hugged Jake again and led us outside. "So Nicky how old are you now?" He took out his keys. "I'm turning 17." I sighed and walked to the Aqua Prius. "You drive a Prius?!" I smirked and he gave me the stop-it-or-your-grounded look. "Sorry..." I got into the passenger side and Jake got into the back. "Kids... You do have a step-mother. Me and her would like to take you two out tonight." I shook my head. No damn way in hell was I going out tonight. "Can I please stay home?" He nodded and drove down the high-way. "Hey uh, dad?" He looked back at Jake. "Can we go to the Gaming Arena... Mom was supossed to take me but, yeah..." He looked like he was going to cry again, so I sighed. "Sure, Jake." He took a right turn into a very country like area. I saw Romeo walking down the street and waved. He looked over, smiled and waved back. Jack smirked. "Is that the boy who you bumped into the hallway?" I nodded and closed my eyes.

    I opened my eyes to see a very pretty light green, with white shutters, and a white porch. I looked to see that the porch wrapped around the house and led to a big backyard. I could see a fence and hear the sound of a pool drain. "We have everything. Dogs, horses, an underground pool, trampoline, and a swingset. Everything you guys need to be active and be homeschooled." I was getting ready to protest when I saw all me and Jake's stuff was on the porch and a tall, tan, brunette walked out smiling. Her teeth were so white and her eyes were a soft mossy green. Jeff got out and hugged her. "Tasha this is Nicky and Jake." She shook both our hands. "Nick is going to get settled in while me you, and Jake go out." Tasha smiled sweetly and nodded. "And then tommorrow, you and Jake can go out and have father-son time and then me and Nicky could hang out at the house for some mother-daughter time." She hugged my shoulders and got in the Prius. "Oh, Jeff? Tasha?" Tasha looked up at me. "Hm?" I shrugged. "Can I have a boy come over. I mean I wont do anything but he's a really good and caring friend. He'll help me get over mom with-out breaking-down." I looked down at my heels. "Uh, sure... Just make sure your in bed by ten. That is if we don't get back before than." I nodded and walked back to the house. They drove away and I sighed.

    I called Romeo after I got up to my room. He said he would be over in about 15 minutes. I looked at myself in the tall mirror and grabbed my brush. Wow... Had my strawberry blonde hair gotten lighter? My eyes were still a dark black. To be truthful, that scared me (a lot). I went downstairs and sat on the couch. I must have been daydreaming because when I looked at the clock it was 3. I heard the doorbell ring and I walked to the door. I opened it and looked at Romeo. God, was he so hot! He has that emo bang hairstyle with the black hair, his eyes were such a brilliant shade of blue, he was really pale, but then his body... He was tall and looked strong. He was wearing those tightish black jeans with a regular pink t-shirt. I smiled and he smiled back. "So, Nicky... Watcha wanna do?" I stepped away so he could come in. He nodded. "Looks just like my parents island house." I raised a brow and he laughed. "Pay no attention to me." I walked into the living room and he followed. I sat down on the couch and he sat by me. "As I said before Nicky... Watcha wanna do?" I shrugged. "What are you up for?" He smiled again. "I see that your backyard is full of fun things. Wanna do something outside?" I looked out the window and it looked like a storm was coming. "Up for swimming?" I looked over at him and he nodded. "Sure, I'll meet you in the pool." We both got up and he walked to the backdoor. I walked up the stairs. I saw his pants and t-shirt thrown onto the couch and I blushed. I walked up into my room and into my walk-in-closet. I grabbed a black and red polka dotta bikini , changed and walked out into my room. "Hmm... It's sprinkling.." I walked into my bathroom grabbed a towel and walked down the stairs. I walked out onto the grass and it was really cold. I half ran to the to the pool fence and opened the fence door. I saw Romeo dive in. I threw my towel on the bench and walked down the white steps into the surprisingly luke warm pool water. I went under and came back up. "You look good in bikini's!" I blushed as I looked over at Romeo. Who was wearing his black boxers. He picked me up into his arms and took me underwater.
