Reinforcements

I was sleeping when I felt something hit me, startling me awake. I sat up and saw my mom. /"Mom! What the hell?/"

/"I could ask the same thing, Matthew,/" she said to me. Then I heard the other guys yell at their mothers.

/"Get up. We have a problem,/" Mom said, leaving the room. What the hell was Mom doing here? Then it hit me - Liz. She calls Mom when there’s a love problem. I climbed out of bed and threw on a hoodie. I headed downstairs to see our four mothers standing there and the guys sitting on the couch. The girls were in the kitchen. Great, leave it to them to stay out of the line of fire.

I plopped down in a chair, and they stood there with their arms crossed, glaring at us. Every time one guy tried to talk, their mother told them to be quiet. I rubbed my forehead as my mom stood in front of me, not what I needed considering the night I had.
