After hanging up the phone with Malia, I see the door open and Emma walks in. I clear my throat "So, how long have you been not telling me what's going on with Malia."

"Why is my phone in your hands?" she asks, narrowing her eyes in suspicion. She sets the food on the table. "Why'd you leave it here?" I asked

"I didn't leave it here, I forgot it here. Besides, the store is close to us anyways. And what do you mean 'telling me what's going on with Malia.'"

"You know what I mean. What's been going on with her and that toxic fucker." anger seeping in my words.

She sighs rubbing her temples. "I didn't think you'd want to know. I just wanted-"

I cut her off "Wanted what? And how in any god's way would I not want to know."

"I'm sorry, okay? And Rowan's not like that, he just fucks up a lot. Matter of fact my nickname for him is going to be fuck-up."

"Not funny."

"Whatever, let's eat, and you tell me about it while we watch Modern family."

"Fine."

...

After eating and watching modern family with Emma and telling her everything she's passed out with her head on my shoulder.

I carried her to her bedroom, tucking her under the sheets. As I glanced back before I left I thought of how she could possibly think I wouldn't want to know.

Closing the door of my room, I laid on my bed thinking of ways I can see Malia again. I'm planning to surprise her with Darren and Emma to go to Italy. I'm pretty sure Rowan hates me but Emma can ask where they live. As long as she's happy in the relationship I'm not going to say anything. Only if he hurts her though mentally, verbally, physically, and emotionally but like intentionally.

I called Darren. Goddamn pick up, you have a phone for a reason you idiot. "Hey this is Darren, everyone's favorite, speaking." he says when he answers.

"You idiot, pick up your phone on time for once will you?"

"Never, I love knowing people are waiting for me and wasting their time after me."

"Whatever, when is your job over?"

"Honey, it's only five pm and on a Friday, I have three hours left, but then again if it's so important just come over now."

"Fine, I'm coming."

"Lol"

"Dirty-minded pig" I say as I chuckle

"Oh please."

                                                                        ... 

"Hey Darren." I say a yawn taking over as Emma goes to hug him.

"Hi, so what is going on exactly?" he asks.

"The three of us are sitting our asses down tonight and booking tickets to surprise Malia for her birthday." I say

"And don't ask how we know where she lives because we discussed it in a conversation and now I know her address." Emma answered.

"Wait hold on, you and Malia are talking again? Since when?" he asks

"Since today, and her birthday is in four days, we need to hurry our asses up." I say.
