JAKE WAS MOSTLY EMBARRASSED ALL THE TIME NOW.

'I'm embarrassing, I'm embarrassing, I'm embarrassing ' I thought. William was walking downstairs behind me then Penelope was behind him. I had heard the whole conservation between those two. Did they really think they were being quiet? One part stuck in my head. " Is Jake your boyfriend? " William had asked. "No, not yet anyways.😏" Penelope had replied. I must've turned red because I stopped walking and Penelope said "Why are u red? Having flashbacks?" 'Is she a mind reader?' I asked myself.

"To what?" I asked trying to act dumb. "You know what.😏"she replied. "Nope I certainly don't." I replied . " Can u guys be lovebirds when we get downstairs." William complained. "What's wrong with u Penelope?😏" I asked . "Why are u acting, what's word...sussy? " william groaned , he front flipped over me then he walked to the living room " hm? " I asked . I continued completely unsurprised about what just happened. "What do you mean?😅" Penelope replied.

" Agh forget it. " I said, annoyed. We walked into the living room then into the kitchen. A chocolate mint cake lay on the kitchen table on a massive plate. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!" My family shouted in unison. I turned to Penelope standing behind me. The lights were off, and the candles illuminated her face. I grinned, the feeling of annoyance vanishing completely . She was so... pretty, standing there smiling.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU! HAPPY DEAR JAKE! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU! HIP,HIP HOORAYY. HIP ,HIP HOORAYYY. HIP, HIP HOORAYYYY!" I went over to the cake and blew out the candles. I remembered why me and Penelope broke up. We were too young for romance then , we were 9 then our feelings faded but I think might have come back...
