But this weekend, my best friend, Hailey, Hunter’s sister, Jaylinn, and I were throwing a surprise 21st birthday party for my twin brothers. We were only a few days away from the party, and they knew we were up to something. My brothers were extremely protective of me since I was the baby of the family and, of course, the only girl. Dad instilled it in their heads at a young age that they were always to protect me. That made trying to plan something without them knowing near impossible, since they wouldn’t let me go anywhere without one of them or Hunter. “Kenzie!” Mason yelled. I jumped, dropped the shirt I was folding and my right hand flew to my heart. “Jesus, Mase, you scared the shit out of me.” “What are you up to this weekend?” Mason leaned his shoulder against the laundry room door. “Hailey, Jaylinn, and I are doing a group date.” I replied but didn’t look in his direction because I knew a fight was about to start. My brothers hated when I went out on dates.
