Winter and I were hanging out and she asked how Treston and I were doing.
"Fine I guess.."
"'Fine'?"
"Yeah. Its like all he cares about now is having sex."
"I don't think that"
"Of course you don't!...... sorry. I'm just really upset."
"It's fine. You can just meet a cute boy at the party tomorrow!" She said excitedly.
"Yeah. True.."
We both laid down and fell asleep.

Beep. Beep. Beep.
Her alarm clock went off.
I offered to drive her to school today and she said yes.

Treston must've been really happy because he was at my locker and kissed me.
"Good morning beautiful!"
"Morning??"
"You sound confused."
"Well.. I kinda am.."
"Why?"
"Cause you never greet me like that in the morning.. only in bed."
"Well you're beautiful and you deserve to get called that"
My heart fluttered when he said that. He makes me feel like a princess when he says stuff like that.

First period came.. then second.. then third.. then lunch.

I was walking from the lunch line and Harlee spilled milk all over me. I guess that is what happens when you spill spaghetti all over her bag.

I went to the library for lunch again. Treston met up with me.
"You okay?"
"No"
"Why did she do that?"
"I guess because I spilled spaghetti over her bag."
We sat in silence for the rest of lunch in the library.

Treston was acting really strange today. He was being all lovey dovey. Maybe it's because I said yes to going to the party. Him and I usually don't go out in public together. It's all bedroom talks.

The rest of the day went by pretty fast. I had work after school so that was good, I didn't have to go home and see my dad. Shit.. what am I supposed to say I'm doing? He can't know I'm going to a party. I'll just text him and tell him I'm going to sleep at Winter's.

Hey.. I'm going to sleep at Winter's tonight. Is that okay?
Yea but I want to see you after work.
K.

I texted my dad and went into the bar. Then.. I saw him.. he was gorgeous. He looked right at me, with his blue eyes that I could swim in. Brown hair that he pushed back with his fingertips. His jawline could cut paper and you could tell he worked out. He had tiny little imperfections that somehow made him look more perfect, the freckles on his neck made me smile.

I looked a little to the right and there was Harlee. Doesn't surprise me. I could tell he went to a separate school though. I never saw him before.

I was caught off guard by someone calling my name.
"Summer!"
It was my manager.
"Huh?"
"We are busy tonight. I need you at table 7 hurry."
I got my apron on and went off to table 7, that was where 'sexy Steve' was sitting.
"Can I start you guys off with a drink?"
"Yes, mountain dew?"
"Certainly."
"Diet for me"
"Well-do"
I got their drinks and came back.
"Ready to order? Or we need a little more time?"
"We're ready to order clutz" Harlee appalled.
'Sexy Steve' gave Harlee a dirty look and said
"Cheeseburger and fries for me and chicken tenders for Harlee. And I apologize for Harlee's rude comment." He smiled
"It's fine. I'll be back with your food."

His smile and teeth and face is just PERFECT.

I came back with their food and asked if they needed anything else. They said no.

.........

My shift was almost over, I only had about an hour left. It was pretty dead, I was sitting behind the bar. Harlee and 'sexy steve' left about 20 minutes ago, leaving me with nothing to admire. Just then I get a text from winter.

Hey, I'm gonna pick you up after work if that's ok?
Yea, that would be great thanks...

I got dropped of here by winter so I kind of have no way home, plus I need her help to get ready. She was acting different though like something was bothering her, maybe she can't go to the party or something.

My thoughts trailed off to the party tonight, for some reason it gives me a sickening feeling in my stomach. Maybe it's cause of Treston, maybe it's cause of winter, Idk I just have a bad feeling about tonight.

Im pulled out of my thoughts and put my phone in my pocket as a customer walks in, I look up and see Winter walk in.

...........

Winter's POV

I walk in to the cafe, unknowing if I should tell Summer what I previously saw. I know that Summer is already upset with Treston and all, should I really tell her I saw him with Harlee eating lunch at a near by dinner. I don't want her to be hurting on the night of the party, tonight is supposed to be fun. Something she hasn't done in a long time. But she also doesn't deserve to be blinded of the situation at hand. Its really unfair to her, and it's selfish of me to keep it away from her. But I really want her to enjoy the party tonight. She might find out though, and she would hate me if she knew that I hid what I saw. I make my final decision, I walk to a table as I look for the right words to tell her.

"Hey" my voice is shaky
"Hey, is something wrong?" She asks with the look of concern on her face
"Summer there is something I have to tell you.." I trail off, rethinking my decision. She is smiling, and I would hate to make that smile go away.
"What is it? Is it about the party?"
"I.... on my way here i....." I stutter and my heart tells me no even though my mind told my yes.
"Ummm..... I realized I have nothing to wear to the party" I let out a sigh of relief knowing I saved her from the pain.
"Oh I can let you borrow something of mine" She says with a smile.

I look down at my phone, it's half past the hour Summer gets of work. The party starts in 3 hours.

Summer's POV

After clocking out, me and Winter get into the car and head to my house. I have to talk to my dad and get my outfit. Of course I can't get ready at my house or my dad would know.

I walk in the door and my dad is on the couch. I saw a beer in his hand and wondered if he was drunk. He walked up to me.
"I wanted to apologize about the past two days."
"Oh.... It's cool"
Even though it wasn't okay or cool I just said it to get to my room and leave. He always apologizes and then ends up hitting me a week after.
"No it isn't Summer. I don't know how to make up for this."

'Maybe stop drinking' is what I wanted to say. But we all knew that wasn't an option.
"Maybe.. um.. I don't know.. Winter's mom is waiting, I have to go."
"Okay. See you tomorrow."

I ran upstairs, grabbed my outfit and a cute crop top for Winter and left.
