Jade POV

2 weeks later...

So my birthday went well, August is on tour, Ryan & Micaela left for Cancun, and I'm in Atlanta bored out of my mind. August hasn't called in 3 days, but I don't really care because I know he is making money. My thoughts are interrupted by my phone buzzing.

I got a text from Maya, telling me to meet her up at Starbucks. I went upstairs to get myself together, and I noticed how I didn't invite Maya to my birthday "party." Then my phone rings..

Phone Conversation

"Hello?" I said

"Hey Boo!" Maya yelled

"Girl...calm down. I can hear you clearly while you're whispering." I said laughing

"Whatever, but hurry the fuck up. I'm only in town for a few days."

"Pause, when you move out of town?"

"I'll explain if you hurry your ass over here." she said

"Can't ever stop cursing, even to save your damn life."

"Look who's talking." she laughed

"Anyways, i'll be in there in 5." I said

"Alright."

End of Phone Conversation

I got my keys, purse, and grabbed my mophie off my dresser. I got in my car and I turning up to 'Trap Queen' by Fetty Wap. I got there faster than I thought I would, and I parked my car right next to Maya's.

I got out my car and took my phone out. I was going through my twitter feed, until someone bumped into me, and all my stuff flew out of my purse.

"Oh dang, i'm sorry." some guy said

"It's ok."

"Let me help you get your things."

"Thank you" I said giving him a smile

He smiled back, "I'm Michael."

"I'm Jade."

"Wait, Jade? Jade Johnson?"

"Umm..yeah. Do I know you from somewhere?" I asked confused

"Yeah, you don't remember me? We were neighbors and went to the same school." he said

"That doesn't ring a bell."

"Come on. We were best friends, until I pushed you away."

"Oh yeah, I remember you." I said dryly

"Look, i'm sorry for way back when. I was going through some tough shit, and after I said that I regretted it with all my heart." he said

I nodded my head, "It's ok. I have to be somewhere right now, but give me your phone and come by my house tonight. I'm having a get together."

He gave my his phone and I put my number in. He took my phone from my hand and did the same.

"Oh, and happy 2 weeks later birthday." he said

"You remembered? But thank you." 

"I would never forget something important." He said smiling

"I'll see you later." I said, giving him a hug

"Alright, bye." he said walking off to his Lamborghini.

"Lil dude rolling big." I mumbled

"I heard that." he yelled

I laughed and walked inside the store. I saw Maya sitting there and she saw me.

"Why you always late?" she said

I laughed, "Nice to see you too!"

She got up and gave me a hug. Surprisingly, she already got me my order and she knew what I wanted today.

"Don't worry, you don't owe me and extra caramel drizzle was added." she said

I nodded in surprise and said, "Thank you. What's up girl? Where you been?"

"Well, I meant to tell everyone but all of our spring breaks are all over the place. But I moved back to LA." she said

"Why?" I asked

"I don't know, I feel like I don't fit in. Especially with your hood rats." she said, laughing

"Girl, bye. You know you the biggest hood rat we got."

She laughed, "Who was that guy you were talking to?"

"Remember Michael. The one who use to be my neighbor and my best friend." I said

"Oh..I thought I recognized him from somewhere."

"Yeah, he's coming over tonight and so are you. Everyone is for a little gathering or whatever."

"I thought Micaela & Ryan were in Cancun." she said

"There coming back in 2 hours so they should be at my house."

She nodded her head and said, "Now, let's go shopping."

"NO! Not today because all of us need to have a girls day." I said

"Ok, then let's get food for tonight."

"Meet me at Target, the one around Atlantic Station."

We got in our cars, and I immediately head Maya's car blasting 'Often' by the Weeknd. I shook my head and notice never has changed, Ever since we were little, she has always been loud and energetic.

I got to Target before she did but waited for her outside. She finally pulled up 10 minutes later with Chick Fil A.

"Seriously?" I said laughing

"What?! They don't have this out in LA." she said

"Girl whatever. Let's just get all this stuff and leave."

We went inside and went straight to the aisle with all the candy. I was talking to Maya explaining the whole situation with Micaela, until someone bumped into me again. I turned around and smiled at who I saw.

"I think you're stalking me." ...
