SZNS SERIES 1: Summer by Maria Writes (book series for 10 year olds .TXT) 📕

bottom of the stairs waiting for Jesse to get down. Tonight, is his parent's anniversary and they are having a party. And Jesse, being Jesse, has been spending too much time in his room styling his hair.

After their classes earlier, they went home immediately to prepare for the party they will attend to. But Jesse is being a pain in the ass and he's been taking his time, styling his hair.

He's always like this when their attending parties. It always takes him half an hour, maximum, to finish his hair, while she just takes ten to fifteen minutes to do hers. She's getting very impatient, so she went to the kitchen hoping to see someone. Blake and Finneas was there drinking beer, while the others are messing around the kitchen.

"Hey, Blake can I borrow your car? Jesse is taking so long to get ready and we have to leave soon. Just tell him I'll see him at his parents' house."

"Sure." Blake said and took his car keys in his pocket. She took it and went out of the house. Inside the car, she removed her heels and started driving. She was a few kilometers away from the school when her phone rang.

She answered the call when she saw it was Jesse and put it on speaker mode, Jesse looked like he's been running because when spoke it felt like he's out of breath. "Hey where are you? I've been searching for you in everywhere."

"I told Blake to tell you that I already went to you parents' house. Caroline is already there waiting for us. I am halfway near you house, just drive yourself. It's your fault, you took too long to fix your hair."

The call just ended without Jesse speaking. She knows he is pissed. Well, it's kinda his fault because he moves too slow. She's still far from the Reeds' house but she's already starving. So, she looked for a fast-food chain with a drive thru and drove her way in.

When she rolled down the window, a familiar face welcomed her. Selene. Or maybe Selena. She's not sure. She's the crew in charge with drive thru assignment and she wanted to laugh at her situation right now but decided not to.

There's nothing funny about being a worker in a local fast-food chain, but she got to admit she wanted to roll her eyes at her. How dare this girl try and flirt with her boyfriend when she doesn't have anything to brag. Not that she's bragging the wealth she's been enjoying growing up, but if you don't have anything to show, maybe it's best not to be bitchy.

She took the paper bag from whoever the girl was and drove to her destination. Chloe is enjoying her burger and soda as she drives her way to Jesse's parent's house. It was a bit of a long ride.

When she finally parked the car on the space outside their house, she took the last bite of her burger and shove all the remaining fries in her mouth and pushed it all with the soda left.

Chloe looked at herself in the mirror before heading out of the car. The inside of the house is really loud because of the music. She walked toward the foyer and saw herself in the human size mirror. She looks great in her silver floor length dress, but her body is getting a bit fat.

"Oh my god, Chloe your already here. Mom is looking for you. And it seems like my brother is pissed at you because you left him in the boarding house yet he got here first." Caroline said while approaching her. She looks stunning on her beige colored dress.

She gave her a short tight hug before they walk towards their huge backyard where there was a huge tent where the party is happening. "You mean, Jesse is already inside."

"Yep, and I told you he's really pissed."

"How do you know that he's pissed. Maybe he's just not in the mood."

Caroline stopped on her tracks and faced her. "Well, he looked ugly. And Jesse has always been good looking. So that only means, ugly Jesse is pissed Jesse. Get it."

"Whatever."

When they went inside the tent her mouth her wide open to see how glamorous it was. She thought that it was just a small gathering but it looks like there's 300 or more people here. She startled when a hand wrapped around her waist and kissed her on her cheek.

"Mom's waiting for you, let's go." Jesse led her to the table near the bar where his parents are sitting. The party is so alive and it was very fantastic. Mrs. Reed caught her sight and went to give her a hug.

"Chloe, finally you're here. For a second I thought you ended up things with my son when I saw him without you earlier."

She smiled and returned her hug. "We're fine, Mrs. Reed. Jesse took a little bit long to fix his hair than I expected so I left the house earlier. But surprise, he got here first."

"Just call me Emily, please. Sweetie, is there something you want to tell me and your father?" Mrs. Reed looked at Jesse then to her and back to Jesse again. Now they are both confused about what Mrs. Reed is trying to say. "Tell me you didn't got your girlfriend pregnant before you two graduated for college."

What? I'm pregnant!? What? Jesse and her shared a look. And the both laughed. They both know it is impossible because nothing happened to them. Yet. "That can't be true, Mrs. Reed. And it you're talking about this belly here. It's not a baby bump but a burger bump. I ate tons of fries and burger on my way here. Like literally shove it in my face as I drive. So that's explains the bump you see. I forgot I was
