"It's been five years, and you two haven't changed," Nicole said, smiling at the pair. "Even when you both become
part of the family, I bet you'll still tease each other."
Lulu started to say, "We're used to it. We've always been..." She paused, her eyes widening. "Nicole, do you

"Let's toast to Nicole's memory of school days!" June exclaimed, preparing the drinks. As the night went on, they

"One more round!" June declared, refilling her friends' glasses. But before they could even sip, someone swiftly
took their glasses away.
June reached out in the direction her glass had vanished, but caught nothing. "Hey! Give it back!" she exclaimed.

Spencer sighed. "I'll carry you home," he decided. 'There's no way she's walking on her own.'
Nicole glanced around, realizing there were only two of them left.
"Looks like we're the last ones," she said, giving Jared a small smile. Although she felt a bit tipsy, she noticed June
and Lulu leaving with Samuel and Spencer. "Ready to head home?"
Jared gently scooped Nicole into his arms. "Let's head home," he whispered.
