Piper's incessant phone calls were beginning to irritate the shit out of me. The girl had been up my ass since I quit taking her to school. Yeah, she was annoying before but it was never that ridiculous. She even tried to pull the waterworks with me when I told her I was driving to Lane's party solo, so she needed to find another ride. It was about that time to cut her ass off. I passed the driveway packed with cars and drove straight to the garage. I was already running late because Theo was out of treats and the little runt gets angry if he doesn't have his daily dose of Beggin' Strips. Someone had to take care of the little guy, since my mom basically ditched him. Typical Layla fucking Hudson. I remember the day she brought him home. She was in one of her "moods" again and showed up with some dog I knew she would get tired of. And I was right. Her "mothership" with Theo lasted about a week before she was MIA again. Rifling through my center console, I found the garage door opener my aunt had given me.
