Evie's P.O.V -
I see Paige standing by the side of the road and pull over.

She climbs in the passenger side and I see that her face is streaked with tears.

"What's going on?" I ask. I start to drive back home.

"You're not going to believe me."

"Paige, of course I'll believe you. What's happened?"

"Okay... Well, you know that Matt and I are- were dating, right?"

"Yeah. Why's it now 'were'?"

"Matt hasn't changed a bit. I was an idiot for believing anything he said. He's been cheating on me this whole time."

"Oh, Paige. I'm so sorry."

I can't believe it... Actually, no, I can. Matt has always been an asshole. He managed to fool everyone into thinking he'd changed. That is so like him.

"I just feel so stupid."

"You're not stupid. I believed him too. He was so convincing."

"Fuck him."

"Do you want to stay with Flynn and I for a while?"

"No, I can stay with my mom. She told me from the start that she didn't trust Matt. She was right."

"Mums always know best."

Paige gives me a pitying look.

"Yeah, they do."

Silence.

"Ahem, so do you want me to drive you to your mum's then?"

"Uh, yeah, thanks. It's just round this corner."

I drop Paige off and she thanks me profusely. I tell her not to worry about it and drive off.

Now I'm alone with my thoughts.

Yes, I know that this chapter was extremely short but I am currently very very tired. Too tired to care. But I hope you enjoyed. The next chapter should be longer again. I am going to sleep
