“Okay.” Jacob jumped off the couch and ran over to Scarlett and Sophie who were sitting on the floor sipping juice boxes. He sat down between them and Scarlett handed him a juice box. The three of them did a cheers and all took sips.
It was the most adorable thing ever. Especially because Jacob was in a little suit and Scarlett and Sophie were both in frilly dresses.
“There you are,” Rob said and walked over to us.
“Hey, man,” Matt said.
Rob turned to him. “Oh, sorry, almost didn’t see you there. Congrats again.” Rob slapped him on the back and then turned to me. “A word, Brooklyn?”
“Ummm…” I really didn’t want a private word with Rob, because I was terrified of what he was going to say.
“I’ll go get us some drinks.” Matt lowered his hand from my back. “Is some ginger ale okay?”
“That’s perfect,” I said. But I cringed when he left me alone with Rob.
“You all set on your end?” Rob asked.
“What are you talking about?”
He laughed. “What do you mean what am I talking about? The prank, Sanders.”
“We’re not doing a prank,” I hissed.
“Yes we are. A classic Hunter Sanders mess around.”
“Stop saying that. I’m a Miller.”
“About to be a Caldwell, yadda yadda. I’m always calling you Sanders. This is going to be epic.”
“What did you do?” I asked.
An evil smile slowly spread across Rob’s face. “You’ll see. We really did a good job this time.”
“There is nowehere!”
“Shhh, you don’t want anyone to know what we’re planning. Actually, wait, we need James to complete the original trio.” Rob turned around and whistled. “Yo, James!”
“Don’t you dare call James over here!” I hissed.
“Too late. He should be a part of it too. Like old times.”
“No old times. Just new times. New times that don’t involve inappropriate pranks. Do you not remember what happened last time?”
“You pretended to die because you were being overdramatic.”
“I was kidnapped!”
“See…all about the drama.”
“Robert Hunter, stop it.”
“Stop what?”
“Everything!”
“Um…what’s up?” James asked as he walked up to us. He looked back and forth between us. “Is everything okay, Brooklyn?”
I was about to tell him no and that his brother was insane, but Rob cut me off.
