Jay: "Dad...Where is everyone?" He asks, looking at his bare wrist, acting as if there was a watch. "Son...be patient. We just have to wait, if it gets too dark... *sigh* we may have to leave early." His father said. He then cleared his throat and pulled out his phone. Jay stared up with him with a confused look twisting his face. Jay flinched when he heard a loud buzzing sound. He covered his ears, and almost a second later, his father rested his hand on his son's shoulder. "Dad! Please call Shay's mom! She said that Shay would definately be the first here..." Jayton whined. His father gave him an annoyed glance, and then answered Johnny's mother's call. "Hello? Yes. Oh. Okay!. I'll tell him. Got it. Sure. Bye." His father then looked at Jay with a pitiful look. "Johnny can't make it...Sorry Jay." Mr. Viola mumbled. Jayton sighed, then slouching in a stupid position. He then heard a car door slam, and a girl's excited shriek.
