⤷ The summer before junior year of high school, Maddy Perez went to visit her grandmother in New York. Maddy wasn't happy. Sure, she loved her grandmother, Pricilla, and New York was fun, but she would be alone all summer wit...

rue's view ( warning — smoking, sexual themes )
"Saige Jackson, she is definitely a lot but subtle. The best way to describe her — if I had to try . . a party girl? If there's a party, she's definitely there. But we'll get to that later.
She came from really well grounded parents who have money, not a lot but good enough where she can get almost anything she wants. Her friends are high end, just like the way she dresses. Expensive. She hangs with the cool crowd, minus nate jacobs, Maddy Perez, Cassie Howard, and kat Hernandez. Her circle's pretty tight, doesn't let many in but that all changed one faithful day — or unfaithful? I don't know.
Growing up, she was very close to her grandfather. They were practically best friends, joint at the hip but when he passed . . . she took it really hard. You could always catch her at the latest parties either smoking a joint or banging somebody in the next room. All she wanted to do was not feel. To take the pain away. That was also around the time where she started, quote on quote, finding herself. She wasn't necessarily reckless but if I had a nickel for every person she banged, I'd probably be close to rich by now.
Saige eventually came out as pansexual and to some of us it wasn't that surprising. After getting over her grandfather ( kind of ), she seemed more happy. She was still partying hard as ever which got her the name as party girl which I don't think she minds. Then the odd part is that those high end friends kind of disappeared and she suddenly had new friends? Kathryn, Grey Huxtable, and John Stanley ( well — kind of ).
Kathryn, perky, dark haired girl who's always around Saige. She's never not in a relationship, always dating the next new guy who graces the halls. Her smile is infectious and I'm pretty sure everyone in the school wants to nail her at least once. She's almost perfect and I say almost because everyone has that one thing that's wrong with them.
Saige and Kathryn met in tenth grade and immediately clicked. After abandoning her other friends, she wanted a new reputation and not the one where she's reminded of her grandfather and those other friends did. So meeting Kathryn was definitely a blessing for her, then came along Grey. Everyone wants that one gay best friend. Grey was everything Saige inspired to be — free.
Grey immediately clicked with those two and her small circle was forming yet again. A phrase that they use quite often is free as a bird and I'm pretty sure that's what Saige wants to be. You would think she's already that because of her glamorous life but she's very contained with such an outgoing personality.
She has to party and feel spontaneous because if she doesn't, the pain rushes back and then she'll slowly seep back into her old ways which is the last thing she wants to do.
Lastly, came the last of the flock and that was John Stanley. He was the guy that everyone aspired to be or want to be with but just like everyone, he has multiple sides which is why he got along with Saige so very well.
Though they don't talk much, he is her weed supplier. Other than partying, getting high is another way to lessen the pain. Maybe I nudged her in that direction but she seems a lot better than how she was before. Anyway, to sum it all up, she's complex but with an edge. Kind of cool if you ask me."
