{okay.......I have a new schedule... again.... I'll post it at teh end}

I stared at teh text. I stared at for i dont know how long. But when I finally pulled my eyes away: It was 5:58pm. I grumbled to myself and flopped onto my back. I opened youtube on my phone and played a song to passed to time. {whats with me and music? XD} {Play song}

"I never wanted a cover up

I only needed you here
I've lived in search of a place I belong
Where the cold rain will disappear

Is somebody out there?
Is somebody out there?

I wanna know
Why you left me
To cover your own
And forget me
Though I have the loneliest heartbeat
Longing for home
A place that will want me

I heard deep down in my darkest hour
Somebody's waiting for me
Until now, I'd thought it a waste of time
Filling holes left where you should be

There's somebody out there
And they're calling out
Maybe I should go out there

I wanna know
Why you left me
To cover your own
And forget me
Though I have the loneliest heartbeat
Longing for home
A place that will want me

I'm letting go of all the memories
I never made in my life with you
I'll let these walls come down in front of me
I've found a love, I've found a love
And there's something about it
There's something about it
There's something about it
There's something about the way it moves

I'll never know
Why you left me
To cover your own
And forget me
Though I had the loneliest heartbeat
I found a home

A Father to love me"

It ended and it was now, officially, 6:01pm. I sighed. Its not worth playing another song. My door swung open, making me fall off of teh bed in surprise. I winced and looked at Grandpa. "I'm sure you saw the text! Now get up and invite our guests in. NICELY," He ordered. I nodded and went downstairs. 

I could see several cars parked. I glanced over at the kitchen to see a roasted turkey, mashed potatoes, corn on teh cob, gravy, croissants, and sparking cider on the tables. And teh seats were all prepped. HOW!?!

I looked back outside, just in time to hold the door open for my friends. They all filed in. They took off their jackets and hung them up. I sighed and put on my fake smile. I was about to wave when i remembered my cuts. CRAP!!! I excused myself for a second and ran upstairs.

And -luckily- after much searching I found some cuff bracelets that matched and covered most of it. I went back downstairs, smiling. 

Garroths p.o.v.

I was really surprised when Aphmau texted me. But thrilled too. SO I dressed nicely, and boy was I glad I did. Aphmau excused herself for a moment. but when she came back, we all sat at the table. There was silence. 

"So, I'm Aphmaus Grandfather, but you can call me Richy," The old guy said. "Well, its nice to meet you!" I replied politely. "Garroth, correct?" Richy guessed. I nodded. "Ahh... Aphmau has told me much about you..!" He smiled. I blushed slightly. He didnt notice. "What has she said...?" I heard Vylad asked. Half ticked off. Half intrigued. "Well, Aphmau has said that all of her male friends were really cute. And that she'd be honored to date any of them," He replied with a chuckle. 

Aphmau p.o.v.

I almost spit out my drink. WHAT THE HELL DID HE JUST SAY I SAID!? I gripped my fork until my knuckled turned white, then I stabbed the turkey on my plate. THis made a clank and left a small crack. No one seemed to have heard it. 

Travis -who was next to me- shot me a look. Which I returned. We have this thing were we can talk with mere looks. He was saying you didnt really say that, did you?  and i was replying with does that sound like anything I would say...? He nodded. Then he added youre always saying you dont deserve love so what hes saying makes no sense. I responded with but they are all too thick head over heels to realize this. He burst out laughing at this. I snickered and ate.

"Whats so funny..?" Grandpa asked sincerely. I glanced at Travis, who was dying. "We're just being dumplings," I smirked. They gave me weird looks. "...Okay... can you please put your dumpling-ness on hold..?" He asked. I looked at Travis. "You gonna live...?" I asked him. He nodded, calming down. "Okay... we're good," I smiled brightly. Grandpa shot me a confused look. 

Tehy continued to talk until the topic of exs came up. "Aphmau had a boyfriend once...!" Grandpa put in. I froze, staring at my food. "What was his name...?!" I heard Vylad ask. "Finn, was it...? NO! It was Quin, i think," Grandpa thought aloud. I looked up and around at the others. All eyes were on me. 

"What a lucky guy," Jeffory muttered. "Surely you know his name, yes..?" Dante inquired. "Y-yeah.... But i perfer not to speak of him until further notice," I explained coolly. "At least tell us his name...!" Zenix pleaded. "H-his name is J-jin," I stated. Silence. 

Katelyn p.o.v.

She seems sensitive about it. Did he hurt her?! I SWEAR IF HE DID! I WILL RIP HIM APART!! 

  Zane p.o.v.  

I elbowed Laurance -who was next to me- and whispered, "Lets ask her privately about him later. Pass it on to Garroth, I'll tell Vylad. But only them." He did so. And so did I. I hope she'll be okay talking about it....!
