Season Collins, a 18-year-old geek, is finishing her last year at Cloverbridge high school, known for its rigorous curriculum. Winston Moore, who'd gotten expelled in the middle of the school year for being too goofy, is forced to transfer to Clover...
"I am, Season. Ever since that day you came over, I can't stop thinking about you, and I really do enjoy your company. So it made me want to ask..." he said. "Can you move in with me? Or maybe consider?"
"I-uh-I-I-uh-I d-don't know W-winston," Season stuttered cutely.
Winston chuckled ferociously.
"HaHaHaHaHa, you're so funny Season 😂. Hey, there's no pressure or anything, and it's all up to you. And I was just joking about the "on one condition" thing. It's totally up to you heha"
There was a moment of silence.
"S-s-s-sure..." Season finally says.
"Are you sure?"
"Yehs"
"Well, you wanna come over and bring your stuff? How does tomorrow sound?"
"Tomorrow?!? Why so fast?"
"Haha, well, I'm just so excited for you to come live with me."
He rubs the back of his neck nonchalantly.
"Hmmmm, is it alright if I come in the afternoon? How does 2 pm sound?"
"Sounds great to me. See you then!"
Winston hangs up the phone. Season lingers for a moment before putting down her phone. She smiles ear to ear, full of excitement and joy. Was she really going to live with Winston now? What will Uncle Kevin think of this?
Ughhh, right, she almost forgot. She probably should've talked to Uncle Kevin about this first. She looks out the window and sighs deeply.

"I'm back from the store!" Uncle Kevin yells. "I brought you some Jolly Ranchers Season."
He set the bags of groceries down. Season walked up to him with a blank expression before grabbing the jolly ranchers and plopping herself onto the couch. Uncle Kevin looked at her, confused.
"Honey, the energy ain't it. What's wrong?" He says.
Season sighs.
"I have something I need to tell you"
"What is it?"
"I...I...I....I...I...I...I....I-I-......I....kind of have a boyfriend now, and I want to—or I'm going to— move in with him...If you don't mind."

"Why didn't you tell me this earlier Season!?"
"W-well, we hadn't made it official so I couldn't tell you."
He groans.
"Do you really expect me to say yes? I haven't even met him! How do I know that I can trust him?"
