Mila put on her best innocent face. "Oh, it's just that... it's New Year's, and I was craving a bit of excitement. Selena is Mateo and Haley's mom, so it's totally normal for me to invite her. Plus, I really like Selena and want to be friends with her. Is that so wrong?"

Everett's eyes narrowed slightly. "You better be on the level, Mila. Don't try anything funny, or I'll have you shipped back to the Adams family in no time."
