throughout the household. "What did I tell you about calling me that!" I yelled back. Hunter's been calling me that since I was five. I've hated it ever since. He laughed and walked into the living room where Alexa and I stood still. I was still because I didn;t know where exactly I was going to do after I spoke to my brother; Alexa was still because she was scared. As he walked in, Hunter wiped his hands on the beige washcloth he held in his hand then slung it over his broad shoudler. "Hey there, Alexa," he greeted with a large smile. I could tell by the feeling I was getting that she was blushing. She's had a crush on him since Freshmen year. Hunter was a Senior at the time. I stepped forward a little bit. "Me and Alexa are going to get dressed and ready for our friend's party tonight and I was going to ask if you could drive us?" It was a bold move for me to ask him to drive us, but to my surprise Hunter agreed to do it. "What friend, Autumn?" he asked with a stone cold expression.

She heard my laughter and turned around with half of a cookie jutting out her mouth. There was a moment of silence before we both starting cracking up.
"Do you know what you're wearing, Lex?" I said with a last chuckle. She closed my computer and finished eating her cookie before answering, "Yup! I brought this pretty black top and super tight skinny jeans." Alexa ran over and pretended to grind on me as I walked to my closet laughing yet again. "I still don't know what to wear," I replied while scavengering through the closet. There were light pastel shirts that
