"Esme! Hello honey, where have you been?" Scott smiled from the small table as Esme walked in that morning.

"Threesome with the neighbors, i'm going to sleep!" Esme called out as she hurried down the hallway.

"Did she just-" Dan said from where he was pouring coffee, it over flowing.

"Oh god." Scott said as he dropped his newspaper.

Esme quickly flopped on her bed with a loud sigh, god awfully tired from how early she'd woken up at Stans house. Shutting her eyes as the sunrise shine through her open window, she fell into a deep sleep.

"Esme, could you come here sweetie." Dans voice came from the kitchen as Esme groaned a few hours later and got up to walk to the kitchen.

"What is-" she began but cut herself off as she saw her Dads both sitting on the couch.

"You're not in trouble, we just wanna talk." Scott said as Esme sighed and sat down infront of them.

"We ugh- we noticed you are now... active. It's natural, but we need to make sure you know all the possibly. Starting with ST-" Scott began as Esme groaned and stood up quickly.

"Can we please not have the sex talk? You guys are a little late in this area and no offense but we learned all this in school and from enough pornos." Esme said as the two men shared a look before giving her a nod.

"We- okay, okay as long as you're being safe. Sorry for the embarrassment." Dan said as Esme gave a thankful smile before a knock was heard at the door.

"Who is that?" Scott asked as he rose from his feet.

"You watch porn?" Dan asked his daughter once his husband left. Esme went to say something before her other Dad cut her off.

"Esme, there's a Stanley Barber here for you." Scott said as Esme sighed and hurried to the door, tripping on the rug slightly.

"Hi gorgeous." she teased while leaning against the door way with a cheeky smile.

"Hey there, um would you wanna go on a drive?" he asked while dangling the keys as she smiled and hurried out the door with him.

"Why do we live in such a sucky town?" Esme asked as she looked out the window, holding onto his hand on the console.

"What's so sucky about it?" he asked as he looked over at her slummed against the car door.

"It's so plain, i've been looking forever and not once have I found a secret hide out or anything. We'll probably die from all the pollution before we graduate." she spoke as he chuckled slightly.

"I though we were gonna die from the zombies?" he questioned her, running his thumb on the back of her hand.

"That's just a fantasy, a fantasy i'm nearly certain will happen." Esme pointed out, sitting up straight to look over at him as he gave her a smile.

"If we don't die from zombies or pollution, what are you wanting to do after, you know, teenage years?" Esme asked as he took a turn.

"I haven't really thought about it I guess, what do you wanna do?" he asked as Esme smiled and looked out the window again, thinking of all things she'd want to do.

"I just wanna travel the whole world. Go to insane countries and dance with elephants or swim with sharks, maybe both." She said, her face resting with a soft smile indicating she was serious about this.

"Well when you do, I hope to get a post card from every where you go." he smiled as Esme grinned and went to say something before she saw a familiar shade of red hair.

"Look there's Syd!" she yelled as Stan quickly rolled up besides her, rolling down his window as it went awfully slow again.

"Hey." he said with a nod and a smile her way.

"Hey." she said back with a small laugh.

"Hey Syd!" Esme said from the passengers seat as she waved at the girl.

"Hey Esme." Syd said to her with a wave back.

"Hi." the child next to Syd said as he waved to the two.

"Small child! Hello cuteness!" Esme said with a gasp as he waved at her through the car.

"So, it's good to see you again." Stan said awkwardly to Syd as she nodded.

"Yeah, you too." she said back just as awkward with an extremely forced laugh.

"So do you wanna do something later tonight with us or something?" Stan asked as he pulled his sunglasses off and rested them on his head. Esme bit the inside of her mouth as she watched Syds every expression.

"You know, I would but Dina and I are going to Ricky Barry's party." Syd said while pointing behind her at the diner, indicating that's were Dina was.

"No shit? Me too, and so is Esme." Stan said as she gave a odd look.

"I am?" she asked as he nodded and looked back to Syd.

"Oh you guys are?" Syd asked with a clear of her throat.

"Yeah, we will." Stan said back with a nod.

"Okay, right. So, I guess i'll see you there and we gotta go." Syd said while grabbing her brothers shoulders and waving before hurrying off.

"Cool." Stan said as he put his glasses back on and drove off. He thought it was weird how quiet Esme was being, like she was thinking to much.

"What are you thinking about over there?" he questioned as she turned to look at him with a blink.

"Do you think we left her out too much?" she asked making him choke on his spit slightly and cough.

"Ugh, I- um no? No? I don't-" he began to ramble as she waved him off.

"She's just acting odd, I mean maybe it's not us, maybe it's something else. Or maybe it is us and she just doesn't wanna say anything. Like we might have left her out so she felt akward, or what if she thinks we're trying to pull her into a thruple?!" Esme asked in a panic as Stan grabbed her left hand that was swinging in the air as she spoke.

"Okay, first calm down. And second, she's fine. She's completely fine, just awkward Syd. Definitely not us, yeah definitely not us." he spoke from the drivers side as if he was trying to reassure himself as well.

"Who's this dude's party we're going to? What do I wear? Should I brought a fruit tray?" she asked as he laughed and shook his head.

"No, Esme. You shouldn't brink a fruit tray, just bring you and I think that'll be enough." he said with a laugh as they continued down the road, hand in hand.
