Chapter 11

The rest of the day at Jeremy’s aunt’s house went decently. Kylie and Jeremy spent a long time talking with Sabrina, which in turn, just caused Stacy to get more pissed off. They discussed how school was going and what colleges they were thinking about applying to. It allowed Jeremy and Sabrina to build a nicer relationship than the constant teasing that had occurred previously. Jeremy made sure to include Kylie in all the conversations, so she did not feel left out. The three seemed to really get along well.

Luckily Stacy decided to ignore the others for the rest of the day as whenever she got involved, it seemed to just cause a fight. The whole family agreed to get together on Thursday and spend the night so that Jeremy could take Sabrina to the dance on Friday. The parents agreed it was a very nice gesture. Sabrina did leave out what Stacy did from her conversation with the parents in order to keep any more drama from transpiring.

They finally left just after six and started back toward the hotel. The drive back took almost four hours; the 405 was the worst freeway Jeremy had ever seen, and he spent most of the drive cursing under his breath.

“Do you want to go grab some dinner?” Jeremy asked Kylie as they walked into their room.

“I would love that. That drive was brutal.”

“How would you know? You were asleep for most of it,” Jeremy joked.

“I was just saving energy for later,” Kylie hit back, rolling her eyes at Jeremy. “Let’s go grab some food so we can come back and watch a movie or something.”

“Or something? What could that mean?” Jeremy asked, even though he knew the answer.

“Wait and find out,” Kylie said, glancing her eyes down toward his dick as she walked toward the door.

Jeremy just laughed at her antics and followed her out the door. They decided to just walk a block to go sit on the boardwalk to eat. They picked a small Italian restaurant that looked quite popular but had room for them to just walk in.

As they got seated and ordered their food, Kylie got a text from Skyler.

“How’s LA?

“It’s good. Jeremy and I are eating dinner right now.”

“Say hi to him for me.”

“Skyler says hi,” she said, glancing up from the texts for a moment.

“Say hi back for me,” Jeremy said. He always found the conversations between Kylie and Skyler to be entertaining as they would get stuck on a topic, and he would be dragged in to solve the disagreement.

“Jeremy says hi back,” Kylie texted.

“How was your day?” Skyler asked. She had been filled in on the potential for conflict with his cousins.

Kylie spent the next few minutes explaining how the day went and getting an update on Bob. Skyler had been spending most of the break with Bob exploring the town and expanding their relationship. It seemed that their connection was as strong as Kylie’s and Jeremy’s. They were really having fun and were enjoying spending as much time as they could together.

“Hey, girl, the food is here. I will text you tomorrow. I know it’s late there.”

“Sounds good. Have fun,” Skyler replied, adding a winky face emoji for good measure.

“So what are we doing tomorrow?” Kylie asked Jeremy after putting her phone away.

“I mean, why don’t we go to Disney? I owe you a day there, and we can get some VIP tickets to get around easier,” Jeremy stated.

“If you want too sure, why not. I have never been.”

“It’s a cool place; we can stay for the whole day and either see the firework or water show at night. We could do both if you wanted.” Jeremy really enjoyed the World of Color water show at California Adventures. He first saw it when he was a child and went back a few times throughout his teens.

“I mean, if we can do both, that would be amazing. I don’t know the next time I will be back out here, so I want to take advantage to see everything while I can.”

“Cool. When we get back to the room, we can get tickets and plan the day. There are a lot of different rides we can go on, plus we can do some interactions with the characters that walk around.”

The rest of the conversation continued as they discussed what Disneyland had to offer and what they wanted to focus on seeing. Ultimately they decided to go to both parks and split their time throughout the day. Jeremy knew he could make some calls to get some exclusive tickets, as it would be a fun surprise. He sent a quick text over to his personal contact with his bank. American Express was known for its black card service. They could get pretty much anything for anyone, ignoring the cost, of course.

They quickly finished eating and decided to go for a short walk before heading back to the hotel. It was getting dark, so they only had a few minutes.

“It’s going to be weird going back to school next week,” Kylie said.

“What do you mean?” Jeremy asked.

“After the break, we’re going to have to spend lots of time on finals and getting ready to plan out our whole college lives. It’s going to be weird to deal with all that. I would prefer just to pause time.” Kylie was worried that once college started, they would break up. Even though they had only been together for about two weeks, she had fallen completely in love. She would not want to give up on the relationship.

“There will still be plenty of time for everything else. Applications will only take a few weeks, and finals we have dealt with for the past few years.” Jeremy did relate to her feelings. He had been thinking about the same thing.

“I guess your right,” Kylie admitted.

“Let’s not focus on all that stuff for now. Let’s focus on enjoying ourselves this week. We got a lot more we need to do before we head back to Westport!” Jeremy stated. He was starting to think he would need to bring Kylie back for a second trip at this rate. They had so many things they wanted to explore all over town and not enough time.

He had also wanted to end the conversation before they entered the large crowd walking back toward all the hotels. People seem to love listening to private conversations, and the last thing he needed was some random person’s opinion on his relationship.
