four.

      THE CLUB GIRLS were all in the middle of the gym waiting for PJ and Josie. They had set up balls, hoops, mattresses for them, and they were all doing different things while waiting for the two girls. Hazel climbed onto the mattress where Peyton was sitting and smiled at her.

      "You okay?"

       The blonde smiled. "Yeah. Are you?"

      "Uh-huh." Hazel nodded. She seemed to hesitate a bit but she finally spoke. "So, I was thinking. Maybe she should, like, go on a date."

      Peyton's eyes widened. It wasn't because she didn't want to, she was just surprised, but Hazel thought she said something wrong.

      "Or not." the brunette tried to catch up. "I just thought, if people sees us in public, they're gonna believe we're together, you know what I mean? But yeah, it was probably dumb—"

      "No! I mean— yes. It's a good idea. We totally should go on a date." Peyton nodded.

      Hazel's eyes lit up. "Okay! Um, they're showing Casablanca at the drive-in tonight. Would you—"

     "Yes! I love Casablanca! How did you know?"

      "I asked your cousin..." Hazel confessed and Peyton giggled. The brunette then looked behind her fake girlfriend as Josie and PJ entered the gymnasium. "Hey, guys!"

      Josie and PJ had managed to get Mr. G to supervise them and he clapped his hands to bring everyone together.

       "Uh, hey, everybody." Josie said. "Uh, excuse me? Sorry, uh..." she muttered as no one was listening to her.

      PJ grabbed the broom from the cleaning cart and slammed it on the ground several times. "Everybody shut the fuck up!" she yelled. "This isn't a little hangout, okay? Oh, it's not a sleepover, playtime. There are serious rules that we need to etablish!" she said as she slowly walked, looking carefully at every girls. "First: listen. Second: be, on, time! Except for you, you come whenever you want." she added as she looked at the teacher.

      Peyton smiled as she looked at Hazel next to her who was writing down in her notebook everything PJ said. She planned to write a report at the end of each session to send to all the girls. Again, it was a simple act but one that showed how caring she was.

      "What time is it?" PJ yelled.

      Annie looked at her watch. "3:30."

      "3:30! Club starts at 3:15! Not 3:16. Not 3:17, but the doors close at 3:15. No exceptions! I don't care if you're like 'oh, but I had to go to extra help because—"

      The door opened and Peyton stopped listening when she noticed Isabel and Brittany who were walking towards the group. She was willing to bet anything that PJ was never going to send them away no matter how late they were.

      Josie nodded towards the two girls at her friend and PJ finally turned around. "Um, hey, guys! Come on in." she said. "Uh, we're just getting started here. So, um... today, I think we're gonna start with some body contact. We're gonna do wrestling. I think I need a volunteer. Brittany, you're close to me. You wanna...?"

      Peyton hid her smile behind her hand. PJ's attempts to get closer to Brittany were disastrous but very funny to watch.

      "I'm sorry, I thought we weren't allowed to be late?" Annie asked.

      "That's not true!" Josie exclaimed. "It's about—"

       "It's about next week!" PJ nodded. "Yeah, next week."
