*** SHAY WILSON ***

"What?!?!" I can not believe this. Josh tells Bree Collar my biggest secret, and, about one and a half hours later, I basically have to babysit him and Jakey?!?! "Oh, dear, we thought you'd be happy they were coming. Isn't one of them your friend?" "Well, gosh, Mom, maybe something had changed for me to charge upstairs in tears, close the curtains facing their window, and have LarIsha over for once rather than just talking to Josh!" "Look, Shay. It's too late now. They'll be here any moment." Ding-dong. "Speak of the devil," I mumble under my breath. Mom smiles and opens the door. Josh's eyes are red. So he does know what he did. I hope he kills himself over this. Mom picks up her purse and says, "Ok, kids, be good. And remember, boys, I'll be with your mother, so if I learn you've done something, she will know about it within the hour. Bye!" "Bye," the twins say in unison. "Bye, Mom." "Bye," she says again, walking out the door. "So, it looks like I'm babysitting," I quip. "What, no 'Kitten'?" Josh asks. "Not anymore," I reply coldly. "Oooh," Jacob says. Josh and I glare. "No?" "No," I snap. Jacob nods, steps back, and sits on the couch. "Look, you do understand that it was an accident," Josh spits. "Ugh! I should never have told you!" "And I wish you hadn't!" "Ugh!" "Ugh!" "I'm going to my room." "I thought you were babysitting." "I really hate you." "Thanks, Shay. I appreciate that." "Like I said, I'm going to my room."

With that, she whips around and stomps up the stairs. "Mommy, Daddy, why are you fighting in front of your poor little baby?" "You are not my son! Will you just shut up?" I snap.  "Well then. Your bad mood shouldn't be taken out on the rest of us. I'll go upstairs with the girl." Then he walks upstairs, too. Great. Now, my big dumb attitude leaves me without my best friend and my crush. Aw, says a voice in the back of my head. I didn't know that Jakey was your best friend! "You're in my head, bozo." That kind of talk is exactly what lost you Jakey and Shay. "Actually, voice in my head, I lost Shay because I told her secret to Bree." You do realize that you're having a snappy conversation with a voice in your head, don't you? "Shut up." I never said anything. "Shut the fvck up." Well, now I'm going upstairs. Great. Now even Harold, the voice in my head, is upstairs. Just great.
