"HEY FRIENDS!" nick yells, greeting the three girls at the door "GIGI!"

"she still cant say 'nick', sorry" natalia says, gigi walking into the house

"wait, who drove here?" chris asks, hugging natalia and valerie

"gigi" valerie says walking in the house

"gigi knows how to drive before you noe?" matt asks, giving valerie a side hug

"WOAH WHERE DID THAT HUG COME FROM?" chris yells pointing at them

"oh did you not tell them?" valerie asks looking at matt "we're engaged" she says with a sigh

"haha very funny" nick says with an eye roll

"we're friends, what now people cant be friends with their ex?" matt asks pulling away from valerie

"well we never said that but its weird for you two to be getting along again" natalia says

"nat, val, we have a surpriseee" nick says

"say it now" valerie says strictly

"we're going on a road trip to...new york! all of us together!" nick yells

"REALLY?!" valerie yells

"yeah! you two have always wanted to go there so we're making your dreams come true, youre welcome" chris says

valerie hugs nick and chris, "hey! i planned it you know?" matt says opening his arms

"thank you matt" valerie says hugging him

"awww, love birds." nick says, "wait, birds, no, ew" he says walking away 

"uhhh matt? you might want to come see this!" chris yells from matts room

nick, valerie, natalia and matt run to matts room and see gracie with an open box filled with polaroids in front of her

"gracie what are you doing?" matt says, sitting down in front of her

"vallie!" gracie says, pointing at one of the polaroids

"aww, matt you have a picture of me?" valerie says with a small pout

"yeah because you made this whole entire box for our like 5 month anniversary and its filled with pictures of us you dumbass" matt says with a small chuckle

"and you kept it?" natalia asks with a grin

"well yeah, i wasnt gonna let 100 polaroid rolls go to waste" matt says

"aww, matty b's in love" chris says with a smile

"shut the fuck up chris, its a memory" valerie says flipping him off

"oh guys? another thing, first, gracie can come, second, we leave tomorrow" nick says 

"but how long are we gonna stay there?" valerie asks

"like a month" nick says

"wait, we're gonna be there for my birthday!?" valerie asks

"yeah! of course!" chris says as matt picks the pictures up

"wait matt can i keep this one?" valerie asks holding a picture of her up

"sure but why?" matt asks as he closes the box

"cause i look hot as fuck" she says putting it in her clear phone case "oh did i tell you guys about that guy i met yesterday?"

"another one? you fell for another one?" chris asks with a small chuckle

"yeah because the guys i meet are cute" valerie says sitting on matts bed with gracie

"so you can pull" nick says with a grin

"well i pulled your brother didnt i?" valerie says, tilting her head a little

"is that an insult or a compliment im not so sure" matt asks with an annoyed tone

"i dont really know i just wanted to say it" valerie says

"okay sooo, tell us!" nick says

"okay so he has like dirty blonde hair and brown eyes and he has like those uhh, how do i call this, like, pinterest boy style? fuck that sounds weird but you guys get the picture okay?" she rants

"fuck can you not talk about guys for one fucking second?" matt asks angrily

"uhm, sorry i didnt know it bothered you" valerie says, her hands tucked in her sleeves

"uhh we'll leave you two alone" chris says grabbing gracie and the 4 of them leave

"matt whats wrong, everything was going well before i started talking about him" she asks

"its annoying that you meet a guy everyday and you have to talk about it, cant you just focus on us for some time?" matt asks looking at her

"but..why is it annoying though?" valerie asks, looking down

"because its hard hearing you talk about other guys who arent me" matt says

well..matt didnt exactly say that, lets go backwards a bit

"but..why is it annoying though?" valerie asks, looking down

"it just is, i mean, you dont focus on things we say at all and it'd be nice if you would.." matt says

"well, sorry, i didnt mean too. Ill focus more on you guys" she says standing up 

"thank you" he says putting the box back on his desk

they both walk out of his room awkwardly

"so, no one has a black eye i see, are you two good?" natalia asks

"yep, we're all good!" matt says as they both sit down

"we're gonna go home and pack, bye guys" natalia says

"bye!" the triplets say in sync as the three girls leave
