Its been a while without hearing anything from Jack or anyone, to be honest. Suhani blocked me off of everything she possibly could, Jack gave up trying to text me and Zach's hoddie I still wore every day. It didn't smell like him anymore, but the memories were sewn into it. My mom had tried multiple times to get me to do activities outside but always failed. It took me a month to finally forgive the boys, but I still haven't texted them yet, but today was the day I, I wanted to reconnect with all of them, well maybe not Zach however. I had gotten Instagram and seen he was with the girl that Jack had talked about and I couldn't look at him anymore.
P: hey,
I texted Jack, and almost immediately he responded.
J: Paige? Are you texting me right now!
P: yes, look I'm just sorry for ghosting you I had to figure some things out.
J: It's understandable, but next time you do this I will fly out and beat you
P: Hah! try me
J: so have you texted anyone else yet? Like Zach?
P: I'm not ready for him, I'll text the others if that will help but he's busy with his girlfriend so I'd rather not intrude.
J: okay, just letting you know all the other boys are looking over my shoulder as we're talking right now...
P: JACK SERIOUSLY
P: hey others...
J: heh, sorry. They all say hi and miss you.
P: is Zach there?
J: no. he's out
P: girlfriend?
J: yeah
P: right, but you all better not tell him anything, or I will find you...
J: we understand
P: okay cool, I'm going out so seeya
J: bye, we love you read - 2:16 pm
I smiled down at my phone knowing they weren't mad at me, little did they know I was going out to buy a plane ticket to LA. I told mom two weeks ago I wanted to see the boys and she loved the idea, she gave me money for anything I would need. Damn, I love my mom. After the ticket was confirmed I rushed over to my bedroom and packed everything necessary for LA, this would be my first time over there, and I had no expectations.
We were leaving in two days, and I couldn't contain my excitement, I was dancing around the house blasting music for most of the day, baking cookies and doing everything that made me happy.
The next day felt the same, dancing around, and just being happy. I hadn't felt this fortunate since when, well Zach kissed me. But now that thought isn't as lovely as it was before. Mom drove into the driveway with Isla, she just picked her up from school, and for once I wanted to see her. She wasn't this irritating little girl to me anymore; she was my sister. A beautiful kind, a person who I would gladly say I love. I ran over to Isla who was just crawling out of the massive truck and snatcher her by the waist and spun her around.
"haha! Paige stop!" she giggled. I stopped, and Isla was still kicking me trying to escape, I kissed her forehead and let her run inside.
"someone's happy today." mom replied while stepping out of the vehicle.
"why wouldn't I?" I grinned at her, she chuckled and went inside. I found my skateboard in the corner of the garage laying upside down covered in dust, I picked it up and rode down the street enjoying my small outing in forever.
While racing through the street, I saw many people out doing something with their life. For the past three months, I was hiding in my room sulking for what? A boy. I could've been making new friends, having fun, or even just be exploring the outdoors but instead, I thought inside was the only thing that could keep me safe.
Once I got home, it was pitch dark outside, and I was still smiling. I walked up to my bedroom and fell asleep of everything that was about to happen the next day.
My alarm went off at four thirty in the morning; I groaned hoping I could stay in the warmth of my blankest for only five more minutes. When suddenly my mom stormed into my room and flickered the lights on,
"Time for LA sweat pea! I don't want to be up for nothing this early." I wined but finally got myself up, dragged my suitcase into the car and laid in the back seat of the car until we arrived at the airport.
Jack still had no idea what was going on, but I told Jonah that I was coming just so he could get everyone out to somewhere like a Starbucks where I could surprise them there, no Zach obviously.
While I was waiting in the lounge for my plane to be called, I went on Snapchat to see a picture of Zach and that girl together.

I rolled my eyes at the two, right when I turned off my phone the desk lady called my plane.
"now boarding plane 475 to Los Angeles."
I hopped up and got to my seat before falling asleep at the window ready to see my brother again.
