Hey. Hi. Hola.

Riley's PoV:

Wednesday went by me banging my head to find an "innovative" idea for the project. No idea turned up in my head after 12 cups of coffee. I made a mental note to ask Alex about this

It is Thursday now and I am almost done packing for the weekend getaway to Granny.

My home is erly quite.

"Alex!"

"Sarah!"

No answer.

Riles,

Mom has asked me to grab few things from our cabin. I will return by tonight. Lock the home if you are going out and kindly leave the key in our secret place. If anything else, please call me.

Lex.

The note read.

It would be a boring day without having to annoy Lex.

I was checking my phone for any further updates from uni but I had notifications from WhatsApp.

Amp-girls squad.💃🏻👯👯👯

Lexi R: girls day out. Whatcha say?

Allie💃🏻👯: oh I am down.

Lexi H: what did Ben do now?

Lexi R: you know me so well.

Lexi H: I know how Lexi minds work. Hahaha 😄😅

Pierson: oh I so needed this.

Me: uh. Alexa, Let me check my schedule.

Lexi R: •••••••• ummm. Alexa that is foreign for me to hear even though it is my name.

Pierson: Maybe Riley is going to meet Andrew.

Me: hahha. I was talking to the actual "Alexa" Alexa. And what?! 🙄 girls before boys. Helloo??!

Allie💃🏻👯: Sure sure.

Me: shut it Al! Buy me Starbucks which has coffee in it and you are sold.

Lexi H: Foodie Riley! 😂😂😂

Me: I like me some food. 😎

Pierson: Ok where shall we meet?

Me: how about my home? My brother has gone to collect something for the weekend.

Lexi R, Lexi H: Yass! Girls day!

Pierson: Whoo-hoo.

Allie 💃🏻👯: wait you called me Al. Ugh. I don't like to be called as Al.

Me: loser.

Allie💃🏻👯: 🙄😑 insufferable

Me: whatever Al. Meet here.

"Rileyyy!" Allie let herself in and was waiting for me in my living room.

"Allieeee!" I said grinning

"Hey, Elves!" Pierson said

This girl has been calling us Elves cause we look like one according to her..

"Hey, Scrunchies!" I greeted her

This name was so stupid but she owns more scrunchies than I have known

"You know you could open a scrunchies collection" Allie said from behind me.

"You know what. That is a good idea" Pierson said making herself comfortable

"The Lexis are here" Lexi H said walking into my living room.

"Well, then what are we waiting for. Let's go!" Allie said making us go out of the news.

True to her word Lexi R bought me my Starbucks.

"You are a true friend, Lexi" I said to Lexi R.

"Ha ha. Why gee thanks" She said

"Well, where are we going now?" Pierson asked

In the mean time my phone buzzed with me.

Drew💙: hey RED.

Drew💙: whatcha doing? Would you like to be in my next week's youtube video?

Me: ttyl Drew. Girls days out

Drew💙: you are ignoring me for girls day.

Me: of course. Girls before you know what.

Drew💙: was just kidding. Lemme know .

Me: idiot. Ceo of I am kidding.

Drew💙: 😁😁😁

"So what did I miss?" I asked them.

"Why all are staring at me?" I asked looking at them suspiciously

"Someone is going to fall in love with some boy they have been friends with for over a month now" Pierson told in a sing-song.

"Well, who's that someone?" I asked playing along

"Well their ship name is RANDREW!" Pierson said clapping her hands.

"No. We are just close friends" I said assuring them.

Don't deny it, Riley.

"That is what I said. Now look at Ben and I" Lexi R said looking happy.

She always looks happy when she

talks about Ben.

"Give her some time. She is in conflict" Allie said

"Yeah. Sure. Whatever" I said and waved them off.

We are now at the food court of the mall.

"So, this Ben" Lexi R started

I actually zoned out halfway through the conversation.

"Anyways, this weekend we all are busy." I said.

"Yeah. I have been dying to get out of home. Miami is calling!" Lexi R said flipping her hair.

"I am going to my granny's" I said.

"And I am going to spend weekend Marco's parents" Allie said.

"Wow, Allie. I am proud of you" I said.

"Awww. Mallie is cute" Pierson said

"Thanks Pierson. We try" Allie said.

"How is it almost 4 in the evening already" I said groaning.

"I know right!" Pierson said high fiving me.

"Drop me off at Stokes, Lexi" I told Lexi H

"Uh-huh." Lexi H said laughing.

"I am going to meet Aj." I said

"Meeting his friends, I see" Allie said smirking

I rolled my eyes at them.

Me: I am here.

Drew 💙: one sec

"Hey, Riles. Come on in" Andrew said inviting me inside the house.

"Where are the Stokes?" I asked him.

"Just some shopping stuff" Andrew said.

"You must be Riley, the girl who has got my best friend whipped" I turned around to see the owner of the voice.

"Riley, Yes and as of second part no and You are Aj" I said extending my hand to shake it.

He just chuckled.

"So I hear you are an engineer in progress" Aj asked me.

"That I am" I said proudly

"Well, share me some ideas, Riles. I am an engineer in progress as well" Aj told me.

"Two engineers under the same roof, I can't handle it" Andrew said groaning.

"Get used to it, idiot" Aj said shaking his head.

"Thanks for having my back, Man" Andrew said rolling his eyes.

"Whatever. Go back to staring at Riley!" Aj said laughing

"Shut up!" Andrew said blushing

"Aww, Drew. You needn't hide it. I know I am cute. But you needn't be that obvious" I said laughing at his reaction.

He blushed more.

"Damn, you and I should spend more time." Aj said high fiving me.

"That's right. Gang up on me" Andrew said shaking his head.

"You poor baby. Don't be a wimp" I said laughing more.

"Riley!" Alex said shouting from the doorway

"Alan!" I said getting up from the couch.

"I am Alex" Alex said looking fake hurt

"Oh, I know. Your reaction was priceless" I said laughing.

Stokes twins are always to fun to hang out with.

End of chapter 16.

How was this chapter? I wanted to give the girls a day out. It was kind of a filler. But let know your thoughts in the comments.
