Paige's Pov

11:03 AM Thursday, Tonight the whole Team would be celebrating Jake's 21st birthday, so obviously it was going to be a huge celebration. We were having his party at the 'nightingale plaza' in L.A and I was really excited as it would be my first time going to a nightclub. But right now I had to deal with Chance. I wanted to confront him, but I was terrified of how he was going to react. All morning I had been rehearsing what I was going to say to him.

"Chance.." I ask my voice becoming slightly shaky, "what's up" he asks barely looking up from his phone. "you're..., you-.... Chance you can't keep treating me like a baby" I demand. Chance dropped his phone looking stunned "what you talking about?!" he questioned. "You..you don't let me make my own decisions". He still looked confused "Paige, you're not being clear" he says bluntly. 

"you shouldn't have told Ivan to stay away from me" i said, raising my voice. He looked bewildered, shocked that I knew what he had done "Paige... I had to, you don't know what Ivan is like" he stated, defending himself. "no, Chance you didn't have to, and whatever Ivan is 'like' I can find out for myself" I quickly replied while walking away and then Chance yells "If you date Ivan you're moving back to Ohio, I'm not letting you stay here". 

I didn't care, I'm still going to pursue Ivan I'm just going to have to make sure Chance doesn't find out. I need Ivan to ignore Chance's 'rules' too, and I think I know how I'll convince him..

02:14 PM, Not surprisingly Ivan was ignoring me again but if my plan works, then he'll be all over me by tonight at Jake's party ....hopefully.

I was with Tessa in the living room, we just talked about random stuff until Emilio and Nick walked in, I jump off the couch and grab Emilio by his arm and start leading him into the kitchen so we could talk in private. 

"what's going on?" Emilio asks with a confused smile. "I need your help!". "With what?" he laughed "I want to make Ivan jealous, so he forgets about what Chance said and can only think about me" I said eagerly with a mischievous smile. "and how am I supposed to help you with that?" he asks with an amusing smirk. "I was thinking later at Jake's party, that we could flirt and be touchy when we're in front of him.." I explain "I don't know.. Ivan really, really likes you and I wasn't planning on getting killed tonight" he joked. "pleeeease" I begged. "ok fine, but you're paying for my funeral."

08:13 PM, I was getting ready with Tessa and Erika we were all so buzzed, tonight was going to be amazing. I really like my outfit (below), it was tighter than anything I'd usually wear but I feel 'sexy' in it I guess, I know that sounds weird but whatever.

"damn Tessa, who are you looking that good for?" Erika asks, "no-one" Tessa giggled. "Not even.. Chance" I tease, Tessa went bright red and both Erika and I burst out laughing. "Guyyyyyyss... stoppp" Tessa pleaded.

The three of us walk down the stairs looking hot as hell, earning a "wooo-woooo" from the guys who are waiting for us by the door. Chance's eyes were stuck on Tessa, I'm sure he likes her. I find Ivan in the crowd looking fine af, he was staring at me, with lust-filled eyes, unaware that I noticed until our eyes connected, he quickly looked away ; embarrassed.
