"Heck, no. I am not going." Paige stated crossinge her arms.
"Oh come on it'll be fun!" Kat smiled while she flipped a pancake for herself.
"I don't wanna come and third wheel you guys." Paige grumbled, scooping up ice cream and slowly licking it of the spoon. Kat rolled her eyes, "and you need to stop eating crap for breakfast." 
Paige shot her a glare which didn't bother Kat at all.
"Plus, you wouldn't be third wheeling. You're friends with Brian."
"Were... as in past tense." Paige corrected.
"Whatever." Kat sighed, "Mom isn't going to be at work tonight."
Paige glared at her once more knowing Kat knew that would automatically make Paige want to go to the lame party.
"You've changed my mind. I'm going." Paige picked up her bowl and spoon and put it in the sink.
"Be ready by 6" Kat called after Paige as she walked towards the steps.
"That's so early! What party starts that early?"
"We're going out for dinner." Kat replied.
"Ugh." Paige grumpily walked up the stairs. "I'm wearing jeans" she stated.
"Good." Kat shook her head at Paige's stubborn manner.
....................
Paige laid in bed while her alarm blasted around her. She groaned as she found her phone and turned it off. The time was 5 o'clock.  She had set the alarm for when she had to get up and get ready. She really didn't need that long to get ready but want to make sure she didn't get her stuff together last minute. She reluctantly got up and climbed down her latter. She found a pair of her black jeans with rips in them. She searched her dwars (and floor) for a shirt that would look decent with it. She decided on a grey tee shirt that she had probably gotten from American Eagle. She put both of those on and laid on Kat's bed, not feeling like climbing her latter again. She Grabbed the Bluetooth speaker that was close to the bed and connected her phone to it. She laid there as her music played.
Some one barged into her room but she just laid there not really caring.
"Oh my gosh stop listening to such depressing music!" Kat snatched up the speaker and turned it off.
"You're killing me." Paige huffed not even looking up.
Kat raised her eyebrows and scrummaged through her closet. She pulled out a couple dresses and laid them on her bed which Paige was still lying on.
"Which one?" Kat asked nodding towards the dresses.
Paige got up on her elbows and looked at them. She yawned and shrugged. Knowing that that answer wasn't enough for Kat she groggily added, "The dark blue one's nice."
Kat nodded and grabbed it and went to the bathroom across the hall.
Paige laid there. Suddenly getting  annoyed with herself for having done nothing. It was just one of those slow days that happened every so often. They were happening more and more regularly for Paige and it seemed to her that she was having to make more and more of an effort each day just to get out of bed.
Kat came back shutting the bedroom door so she could look into the wall mirror.
"I like this one." It was a simple skater dress that hit her mid thigh.
"What shoes are you wearing?" Paige asked sitting up finally coming to terms about going.
"Just my converse, nothing fancy."
"Where exactly are we eating?" Paige asked. She stood up and went to the closet looking for her jean jacket.
"Timmy Hortons."
Paige nodded, "And are we meeting your boyfriend there or is he coming to pick you up."
Kat rolled her eyes when Paige said "boyfriend" and then responded to her question. "He's picking us up."
"Ehhhhh." Paige grumbled with her head tilted to the sky. She walked into the living room and laid on the couch. Paige pulled out her phone and scrolled through Pinterest looking at the tumblr posts they had on there. She turned on Spotify and sang along to the music. She lazily scrolled through her texts and saw that Shawn had texted her. She opened it wondering how she had missed it. She responded and hit send.
Paige: chocolate of course!
Paige: update on the ice cream: it was the first I should have knownnn
She laid on the couch listening to "All I want" by Kodaline. A ding cane from her phone and she pulled herself up looking at it.
Shawn: horrible?? How?
Paige: my sister's dragging me along with her boyfriend to dinner and then a party. Help meeeeee
"Kat!" Paige yelled. You could hear a grumble coming from upstairs, "What?"
"When are the kids gonna be back?" Paige asked. Kat and Paige usually watched there two younger siblings while their mom and dad usually worked.
"They're staying over with Aunt Mary Claire." Kat replied.
Paige nodded to herself and went back to sprawling on the couch. She heard a loud knock on the door. Paige quickly got up and looked through the kitchen window hoping it wasn't some creepo. She mentally groaned and went to the door. It's okay Paige you got this! Be happy act like you like him. Paige opened the door with a smile on her face. "Hey, Brian." She immediately took a second take as she looked behind Brian she saw a tall boy with fluffy brown hair.
