As soon as I start feeling okay with something or someone I get let down, well maybe not let down but I have to admit I'm confused.

"Earth to Jocelyn?" My mom said waving her hand in my face.

We were supposed to be having dinner. I honestly wasn't hungry, also my mom was in a health kick thanks to her instructor so food wasn't so appetizing anyways.

"Sorry I'm just tired." I lied.

I got up from the table and left to my room.

I was so confused on if what Ariva was saying about Jason was true did he have something to do with this girl Kacey's death?

I needed to find answers I just wish I knew this girls last name.
"Bleep Bloop" my phone buzzed.

I opened to see it was a text from Jason.

Not going to lie it made my heart beat faster. I didn't know if it was cause I was scared or if I still liked him.

"Hey wanna hang out tomorrow?" The Text read.

I was biting my lip I was tempted to say no, but I wanted more info see if he showed any signs of being a serial killer.

"Yes, let's hang! Yo!" I replied back trying to be subtle.

I was a wreck when it came to situations like this considering the fact that I've never been in a situation like this or any situation in general.

I grabbed my phone to call Summer. 

I needed advice on how to stay calm, not only that she was the only person I could talk about the situation with to help me undercover the truth about Jason Goulding.

"Hello." Summer said groggily.

"Jason wants to hang out with me." I said quickly and loud.

"Joc, calm down I say hang out with him." She said sounding annoyed.

I guess it didn't help that it was like ten, and it was a school night, but hey rebels don't sleep am I right? 

"But what if I blab about Kacey to him or Ariva." I said nervously. "And if I do, do you think he'd kill me."

Summer let out a huge sigh. "Jocelyn I don't think Jason is a killer and neither should you." 

I let out a sigh. She was right as cute as Jason was the bad boys could never get away with murder.

"Your right." I said laying down in my bed. "He's too cute to be a murder."

Summer let out a laugh. "Yes, now I'm gonna hang up so I can sleep."

I let my phone down and just laid on my bed thinking. Why did I have to think of all the worst things that can happen and overthink all of my situations.

"Okay you can do this Jocelyn, your going to have fun and be good and be the life of the party." I said to myself.

There was a knock on my door that made me jump up. I don't know why it freaked me out, it was probably because I was already jittery.

"Jocelyn honey why are you so jumpy?" My mom asked.

"I watched a scary movie with Summer, and it scared me so I guess I'm still jumpy." I lied.

I hoped my mom couldn't tell I was lying. I was honestly probably the worst liar to ever exist.

"Your such a pussy sometimes." My mom said rolling her eyes. "Anyways me and daddy are going on a trip next week so try and throw a party or something be a regular teenager for once okay dear."

I just scowled at my mom, If she only knew the situations I was in right now.

"Okay mother I'll try." I said sarcastically.

She left and closed my door. Sometimes I really hated her, she was crude and annoying.

"Breathe Jocelyn, think about how amazing it going to be spending your days with Jason." I said to myself.

I laid back down in my bed. I quickly fell asleep hoping for the best with Jason

                                                                                             ****

The next day I woke up a new girl, then again I say that again when my confidence is still intact.

"Get up or I'll Kidnap you!" A voice yelled at me jolting onto my bed.

I let out a scream and tried to push  the person off me.

As I did I fell onto the floor then tried grabbing at my door then fell again.

"Oh my gosh, Jocelyn nice self defense skills." Summer laughed laying on my bed.

I couldn't help but laugh either, how could I not have recognized Summers voice. 

"Sorry, I guess I'm still jittery but you should never wake someone up like that Summer." I said holding my chest.

Damn did Summer give me a scare. This so did not help with the situation I was going through.

"I can tell, listen I stopped by to tell you that I know you are nervous but you shouldn't be Jason's a good guy." Summer said laying down in my bed. 'Remember how you judged L.A. and she turned out to actually be a chill person."

I let out a sigh. "I know I never say this but you are right, I need to trust Jason and not some hooker from his past.

"See you should listen to me, more often now get your ass up so we can go meet with the guys and L.A." Summer said getting up from my bed then heading towards my closet.

Summer picked a Light pink crop top with jeans and sneakers, while I wore a black bra-like crop top with a high waisted hot pink skirt with black sandals.

We made our way downstairs to see my parents packing to go on their trip. My mom gave me the up and down look, I didn't feel like dealing with her crap so I got in Summer's car and left.

The only thing that can take my mind off Jason was my rude parents. I was never going to be their definition of perfect I never understood why they always tried to make me something I wasn't.

"Earth to Jocelyn?" Summer said looking at me nervously.

"Sorry, I got lost in my mind again." I said fixing my hair.

"Are you still thinking about Jason?" She asked. "Move jack off!"

The car swerved as Summer sped past some guy.

I grabbed the seat. "No, I'm just over being a disappointment."

"Jocelyn you are the top of our class, the richest, the prettiest girl I know, how are you a disappointment?" Summer questioned.

"Not to my parents, especially my mom I can never be good enough." I replied back.

I felt tears form in my eyes. Gosh, why did I let her get to me.

"Jocelyn, fuck her!" Summer said honking her horn then flipping off another driver. "Who cares at the end of the day only you can be Jocelyn Rivers, and only Jocelyn Rivers knows what Jocelyn wants in life if that makes sense."

In a way it did, make sense was I going to take Summers advice, I didn't know. I really did need to stop getting in my own head though.

"You are on a roll today, too true statements from you I'm proud." I said with a laugh.

"See, living past my moms expectations too." Summer said with a smile.

I smiled also, I was very proud of Summer. She defiantly did not care about her moms expectations she did the exact opposite of what her mom wanted or told her to do.

We made our way to the beach, why are we at the beach I did not know.

"Hey you made it!" Jason said with a big grin.

I swear soon as he smiled it was like all my problems, and all my anxiety disappeared it was just me and him, and that's all that really mattered.
