I walked into my house, sharing one with Carol.

"This is still so weird to me." I mumbled.

"I'm not complaining, but yes, it's weird." She replied.

"I'm surprised Rick didn't make you stay with him." She stated.

"He likes that blonde girl." I replied, ignoring her statement.

"Jessie?" Carol asked.

"Yeah." I replied.

"Oh." She mumbled.

"He kissed her last night." I replied.

-

"Made any friends yet?" I asked Carl, following him into his home with his dad.

"Kinda." He replied.

"That's good." I replied.

"Can you stay with us tonight? It's weird when you're not with us." He stated.

"It's up to your dad and yeah, it's all weird." I replied.

"He doesn't care." Carl replied.

I lifted myself onto the kitchen island, watching as Carl looked through the refrigerator.

"What does it feel like when you like someone?" Carl asked, closing the door of the refrigerator.

"Awe, does little Carl have a crush?" I teased.

"No." He replied.

"I don't believe you, but okay. Your stomach and heart feels fluttery, but I don't know, like I just get a feeling." I replied.

I turned around, Rick walking in the kitchen.

"Your dad should know." I told Carl, pushing myself off of the island.

"I should know what?" Rick asked.

"How you feel when you like someone. You like Jessie, so you should know." I replied, motioning towards the lipstick stain on his cheek.

Carl snickered as I walked toward the door.

"Are you staying tonight?" Carl asked as I opened the door.

I shrugged my shoulders and left the house.

"Hey, Sam!" Spencer yelled.

He's Deanna's other son and he's really sweet.

I turned around, watching as he ran down the street to get to me.

"Yeah?" I asked.

"Do you want to come to my house for dinner?" He asked.

"Sure, that sounds fun." I replied.

He smiled, "Cool, cool. Any specific food you don't like?"

"Not really." I replied.

"Okay, I'll come get you." He replied.

I smiled, watching as he continued walking down the street.

-

"Thanks for the dinner." I told Spencer as I stood up.

"Thanks for coming. If you need anything I'm just down the street." He replied.
