Two and Half Men - Reborn as Jake Harper

Chapter 64

The bell rang, ending the first class of the day. Students started filing out, chattering about assignments and weekend plans. I turned in my seat, catching Carly, Sam, and Freddie's attention.

"Hey," I said, slinging my backpack over one shoulder. "I've got something to tell you."

Carly just looked at me curiously, tilting her head slightly, waiting.

"Way better than anything from this morning," I continued with a grin.

Sam raised an eyebrow. "Does it involve food, chaos, or both?"

"Both. And way more than that," I said, letting the suspense hang in the air for a second. "My uncle Charlie is letting me throw an end-of-year party. His house. Big space. Real food. Music."

Freddie's eyes widened. "Wait—you're throwing a party at your uncle's beach house?"

I nodded. "That's the one."

Sam leaned in. "Is there gonna be a chocolate fountain?"

I looked at her, deadpan. "Really, Sam? I'm throwing an incredible party and your standard is a chocolate fountain?"

Sam shrugged. "Hey, priorities."
