How We Met (discontinued)

Chapter 9

A/N- Hey... Sorry for falling off the face of the earth for a hot minute. I do have chapters written in advance, but the past two weeks, not only have I not had time to write, but I didn't even have time to publish chapters. I had my birthday, then my brothers the next day (My mom makes a really big deal out of birthdays, and we have to spend them with family and stupid shit like that.) plus a lot of other things too.

I thought since I don't have school anymore, my schedule would be a lot less, and I would have more time to write, but that wasn't the case. But I should be better now. June was just a very stressful and jampacked month.

Ok, I hope you enjoy this chapter, and also, it was almost 2000 words long, so I did end up splitting the chapter in two, so if it looks like it ends at a weird spot, that's why. I just normally shoot for 1000 words, and didn't want one chapter that's double that. Ok I hope you enjoy!

oh I almost forgot. I need to remind you about the character that is based off of me (Paige). The character it's self is based off of me, not her actions or what happens to her. just keep that in mind for the whole story.

"Mommy" Avery says. "Yes love?" I ask her. "When will daddy come home?" She says and I try to figure out the simplest way to explain it to her. "Well Ave, daddy is currently out helping your brother, and he has some other things he needs to do before he can come home." I tell her.

"But how long will that be?" She asks. "I don't know, but he will come back honey bunches." I tell her. "You sure?" She says and she has a sad look on her face. "Positive." I tell her pushing my forehead against hers. "Can you continue with the story?" She says and I slightly laugh. "Of course," I tell her.

Flash back

"Hey mama, I'm home" I yell as I put my keys on their designated hook and I take my shoes off. She didn't respond, so I decided to look around for her. Eventually I make my way to her office and open the door slightly, just in case she was in a meeting.

As I expected she was. She quickly mutes her mic, "Hey can you go pick up your brother from school, I'm currently in a meeting and I can't do it." She says and I nod. "Thank you" She says and I leave the room, quietly shutting the door behind me.

I make my way back to the front door, putting my shoes back on and grabbing my keys. I head out the front door and get in the driver's seat of my car, when I start to get a face time from Paige. I answer it and plug my phone into the aux so that the call went through the speakers of the car.

"Hey bitch, how has your day been?" She says and I laugh at her. "Good, I say as I turn my car on and start to back out of the drive way. "Wait where are you, why can't I see your face?" She asks. "I got to go pick up Caleb from school, you're in my cup holder." I tell her with a slight laugh as I start to make my way to the middle school.

"So, what happened today, have you already replaced me?" She says and I laugh. "No, one of the only girls I met called me a whore and told me we would never be friends." I say and Paige just bursts out laughing. "Wait for real?" She says, "Ya."

"Well did you make any friends?" She asked. "Did you?" I ask her, knowing she has severe social anxiety and her calling me was probably one of the first things she's said all day that wasn't to herself. "Ok, that isn't important, you know I can't make friends without you." She says and I laugh.

"To answer your question, yes I did. The guy who showed me around the school, his name was Ranboo, and he introduced me to his friends. There was three other boys and one girl. The girl being the one to call me a whore." I tell her.

"Are any of them hot?" She says and I burst out laughing. "Paige!" I say. I should have known she would ask that. "Hey, don't get mad at me, I'm just asking the important questions." She says and I just laugh at her.

"Yes, they all are. Probably the most good-looking friend group I've ever seen. Although I wouldn't call Ranboo hot, I would call him pretty." I tell her. "Even better looking than our group?" She asks. "Way better looking than our group, I mean we have you in it." I say joking around with her.

"You fucking bitch" She screams and I pull up to the middle school. "Hey I was just kidding, you know if I was gay, I would have asked you out the moment I saw you." I tell her and she laughs. "Stawp I'm blushing" She says and I park in the paring lot of the middle school, and pull my phone out of the cupholder.

"Hey bb" I say waving to her, "Oh my god, your outfit is so cute!" She says and I position my phone on so she could see the whole thing. "God, I wish I could dress like you." She says and I quickly send Caleb a quick text of where I was currently parked so he knew where to go.

I position my phone on my dashboard, so she could see me while we talked. "So, talk more about this Ranboo guy, the way you talk about him, he sounds cool." Paige says wiggling her eyebrows (For the sake of the story, my character (Paige) doesn't watch mcyt's, even though I real life, I do watch them.)

"Oh my god, can you please stop." I tell her with a little laugh. "What?" She says, with a tone telling me she knows exactly what she was doing. "P, me and Parker just broke up, and you knew how much I loved him. Even if I was ready to date again, I don't want anyone to feel like a rebound guy." I tell her and she nods.

That's when the passenger side door of my car opens up, and in comes Caleb. "Hey bub" I say as he sits down and puts his backpack in the back seat. "Hey cow" He replies, shutting his door and putting his seatbelt on.
