Mark My Words

Chapter 26

<Paige's Pov>

I really don't know what to do about all this! Like really Hayes didn't have to do that! He's just making a fool of himself! I don't spend all my time with Madison! I don't get what he's talking about! I just became friends with her last week! We are just trying to get to know each other better! What's the problem with that. Nothing right? Exactly. Well tomorrow we are leaving to go to a new state so I have to pack all my stuff back up and this will help me get my mind off of it. I packed everything except the stuff in the bathroom, pjs and what I'm going to wear on the plane tomorrow. As I finished the one thing that I really wanted to do was eat ice cream and go to the Jacuzzi. I changed into my swimsuit and a big tee-shirt grabbed my phone and put the waterproof case on and grabbed the waterproof head phones and then went down to the gift shop and bough Ben and Jerry's half baked ice cream. I paid and went to the cuzzi. I sat down and just relaxed for a few seconds then got my ice cream and started eating it. Everything Hayes said replayed in my head. I still feel like I didn't do anything wrong. I sat in the hot tub and thought for an hour and a half. By the end of my thinking I realized that maybe I was wrong. Maybe I should apologize. I'll do it tomorrow I'm just not ready to admit that. I got out of the cuzzi then went to the pool I did a few laps then went back to my room. I showered then went into the room to grab my pjs. I looked around and the room was empty all of rose' stuff was gone. I really did mess up this time... Ughhhhhhhh! Why why me! I feel like everything I do I end up doing it wrong! Or like when everything is going good but then one thing goes wrong and everything else is just bad! Yet that's what's happening right now. I'm loosing my best friend and my boyfriend because I made another friend. What is wrong with me. I laid down on the bed and began to bawl until I fell asleep.

~dream~

"Hey Hayes!"

"Umm hi.." I went to go give him a hug and a kiss. "What are you doing??!?"

"Umm I'm trying to hug and kiss my boyfriend..."

"I'm not your boyfriend I don't even know who you are!"

"What are you talking about we have been dating on and off for a year and a half now."

"I don't know who you are leave me alone!! You are really creeping me out!" I ran off crying. I ran to Rose's. I knocked on the door. And rose came to the door. I quickly embraced her in a hug. She didn't hug back at first but she did.

"Oh thank god you're here rose! I really need you! I'm so glad I have a best friend like you!"

"Best friend? I don't even know who you are... I'm sorry whatever your name is but I'm not your best friend I've never even seen you before."

"What are you talking about? We've going to the same school since preschool! I'm your next door neighbor for crying out loud!"

"We don't have a next door neighbor! They moved when the parents got a divorce and that was 7 years ago!"

"What there is no way!! That's where I've been living my whole life! And my parents split for a long time and now they are playing their 2nd wedding!"

"Umm... Okay but that house has been empty for a LONGGG time!"

"Whatever! I'm sorry I bothered you!" I ran out of her house and down to the park. I went to the treehouse and saw Hayes making out with his old girlfriend Jordan. I ran off and went to the lake. What the heck is going on here nobody remembers me! My house is vacant! My parents aren't together at all! My best friend doesn't know anything about me! My boyfriend is dating his ex. I don't get it I'm so confused!! I began bawling.

That's when I woke up. I had tears running down my face I can't live in a world without my 2 favorite people!! It's was 4:30 in the morning and I text Hayes.

Me: Hayes I really need you right now! I know you're probably asleep and still really upset with me but just really need someone to talk to and I don't want anyone but you!

I sat cuddled up in my blanket crying. 5 minutes later I heard a knock on the door. I got up and looked in the peephole I opened the door and rushed into a hug. I began crying on his chest. He picked me up and took me into the room.

"Paige? I'm still upset with what happened earlier but I'll always be here for you when you need me! No matter what!"

"Thank you Hayes! I really appreciate it!"

"Now Can you please tell me why you woke me up at 4:30 in the morning to come comfort you?"

"I guess... I had a dream that you and rose didn't know who I was and I didn't live in North Carolina my parents stayed separated and you were dating your ex, Jordan. Everything was just horrible! It made me realize that I can't live in a world with out you or Rose! I'm so so so sorry that I was being so rude and that I was so oblivious to everything! I'm sorry that it took a dream that I thought was real for me to realize that I need you and that I was wrong! I'm sorry I almost drove you away. Back to North Carolina. I'm sorry for everything Hayes!" I was bawling again. He brought me into a tight hug.

"It's ok Paige! I forgive you! But just don't do it again!! And you need to apologize to Rose!! She was hurt pretty badly by all this! She had to deal with it longer than me!"

"Okay! I'll go do that right now!" I jumped up.

"Paige it 4 am! She's not awake!" He laughed.

"Right!"

"Now come back here and cuddle with me! I've missed you and I need to cuddle my beautiful girlfriend! And I need to go back to sleep. Because I'm tired and I don't want to be a grouch tomorrow. Well I guess today!" He laughed. I ran back to him and jumped legit jumped back into the bed with him. We got under the covers and I put my head on his chest and wrapped my arm and leg around him. His arm was around me. He kissed my head and said, "goodnight beautiful! I love you! Glad we worked everything out!"

"Goodnight handsome! I love you more. And same!" I looked up at him and he looked down at me. I went for it and kissed him. I put my head back on his chest listening to his heart beat and feeling the way his chest went up and down with every breath he took. I love how I can finally be in his embrace again! I'm glad we are back together! I love him and I hope we stay together for ever! With the thought of that I fell back asleep feeling calm and protected.
