"Is your ankle ok, Paige?" Crew asked, walking into Paige's room.
"Yeah." She nodded.
"Yeah, I'm fine Crew. wheres Grey?" Paige asked.
"He's at the library." Crew said.
"What? by himself?" Paige shot up from her bed.
"Yeah?" Crew said.
"Come on!" She said, grabbing his hand and ran out of the house.
Paige and Crew made it to the library, stressed and out of breathe.
They walked around looking for him but couldn't find him.
"Where else do you think he could be?" Paige asked.
"Maybe that place your boyfriend works." Crew said.
"Crew, i don't have a boyfriend." Paige laughed.
"Describe who your talking about." Paige said.
"Tall, Brunette, kinda quiet." He explained.
"Dodge... Come on."As the two worried siblings entered the restaurant Paige sighed with relief seeing that Grey was sitting at the table talking to Dodge.
"Grey!" Paige said.
"What the hell are you doing here by yourself?" Paige asked.
"Well Crew said it was fine." Grey said.
Paige looked at Crew.
"No i did not! Paige he-"
"I don't care! I'm just glad your still alive but i told you before that your not aloud to leave this house without me until your 12." Paige said.
"Sorry." Grey looked down.
"It's ok." Paige hugged him.
"Hey Dodge." She sat down.
"Sorry if i knew he wasn't aloud out i would've brought him back." Dodge apologized.
"No your fine, i talked to them before about this." Paige said.
"Well, can i get you anything to calm you down?" He asked.
"A water please." She said.
"Coming right up." He smiled at the blonde girl.
"Sit down. What did you do?" Paige asked Grey who was now sitting next to her.
"Well i went to the library and got this new book, and then i knew that your boyfriend worked here so i decided to keep him company." Grey smiled innocently.
"He's not my boyfriend. He's my friend." Paige said.
"Since when did I become your friend?" Dodge asked, placing the glass down.
"Ouch, you don't wanna be friends?" Paige asked.
"I do but i didn't know that we were friends." He said.
"Well we are ever since the first challenge where you jumped off that cliff and scored an extra 25 points." Paige said.
"Wow! you jumped off a cliff! Boys will do anything to impress a pretty girl." Crew shook his head.
"I wasn't trying to impress your sister i was trying to win the game." Dodge chuckled.
"Either way, you jumped off a cliff? that's cool enough." Grey laughed.
"Yeah, he's a pretty tubular guy." Paige smiled.
"Tubular? What, is that the new cool?" Dodge chuckled.
"Get back to your job, Mason." Paige said.
Dodge laughed lightly before helping other costumers.
"Are you going to the parade later?" Dodge asked.
"Yeah, Are you?" She asked.
"Nah, i'm working." Dodge said.
"Dang i wanted to see your reaction to all the bright colors and pretty girls on pretty parade boat things." Paige smiled.
"What do you mean?" He asked.
"Well, you seem like your not into that type of stuff." She shrugged.
Dodge admired the girl for a minute, he took in her beauty.
"What?" Paige asked.
"Nothing." He shook his head.
"Ok? well, speaking of Parade i should go get ready. I'll cya around Dodge Mason." She said.
"Cya Glendale." He smiled as he watched her and her brothers leave and walk up the street."Oh look, there's Bishop!" Heather pointed out.
"And Diggins." Paige said.
"Hi." Bishop smiled.
"Ladies." Diggins said.
"Hey Diggins!" Paige greeted.
"No, No ladies. It's been 9 days, Diggins! have you not heard anything from the judges?" Natalie put her hand on Paige's shoulder.
"Patients, Grasshopper, Patients." Diggins said.
"To think, that could've been you." Paige said as Heather's old job that fired her parade went by.
"Wave goodbye to the ghost of shittier jobs past, Heather." Natalie grabbed her hand and made it wave.
"Yeah, what finger should i use?" Heather joked.
we all laughed.
Then the beauty queen's thing went by.
"Ooo check out Layla. She looks beautiful." Paige pointed out.
Layla threw a rose and Bishop caught it.
"She's into youuuuu" Diggins teased.
"Shut up!" Bishop said with a smile.
"Alright later losers, Paige, always a pleasure." Diggins said walking away.
The group walked passed all the people in the crowd.
"Watcha got there, Nat?" Paige asked.
"It's a clue." Natalie said, looking up at Paige.
"Uh guys." Paige stopped Bishop and Heather.
"I mean it's gonna be a clue, right?" Natalie held up the flag.
