i pull up to the house and park the car. paige pulls in shortly behind me and waves through the tinted window. i smile and wave back, feeling my face heat up. i can't believe i'm friends with paige bueckers.
she gets out of the car and we walk to the door, her opening it for me. we meet eyes and i thank her. conversation flows as we walk in and we see the rest of the team is already inside.
nika and aliyah come to hug me and i laugh. we all spread out amongst the various couches and chairs in the living room. since me and paige are the last ones here everything is occupied except for a soft white chair by the end of the couch, usually meant for one person but looks like it's gonna have to fit two.
paige sits down first and since it's a tight squeeze i'm practically laying on her. she doesn't seem to mind though, moving me closer to her as she puts her arm around my back. my stomach starts spinning.
i really need some self control.
ice got to choose what we're watching and she picked a horror movie. i do not do horror movies. luckily no one seems to be paying too much attention to it, instead asking random questions to get to know me better.
"okay everyone, what's your favorite tv show?" nika asks first. i hear some outer banks and bridgerton and grey's anatomy. paige says hers is euphoria and i tell them mine is stranger things. chatter begins amongst the group as paige tilts her head down to look at me.
"i've never watched that, is it good?" i stare at her for a second, giving her a look and she starts laughing.
"what?" she says still giggling.
"you've never seen it? none of it?" i'm literally shocked, she's had to have seen it before.
"i mean, i've seen clips of it but never a full episode." she explains.
"sometime in the near future me and you are gonna sit down and watch it together. then we can watch season 5 together when it releases!" i smile widely at the thought.
"it's a date." she looks surprised that she said it out loud, but acts calm. i blush and lean my head on her so she can't see my red face. the group comes back to the conversation as they ask basic questions.
"favorite color?" aliyah starts.
"blue." i respond.
"hm, favorite food?" kk asks.
"probably mac n cheese." i feel paige nod her head in agreement, which is now resting on top of mine.
"favorite singer?" nika questions.
"i like a lot, but my favorites are taylor swift and olivia rodrigo. oh! and noah kahan." i smile and some of them voice their support of my choices.
"biggest fear?" it's paige's turn to ask.
"definitely weather, i get so stressed even when it rains." a few girls laugh as i continue.
"i'm being so serious i will hide in the basement if it starts sprinkling. and don't even get me started on thunder." paige rubs my arm as she's still laughing.
"hate to break it to you but we don't have a basement in this house." i turn my head to make eye contact with her.
"looks like i'm out of here!" she grins at me.
after a few hours most of the girls have either fallen asleep on the couch or gone to their room. me and paige are the only ones awake, still laying with each other. she moves her lips close to my ear.
