Paige's POV
It has been a couple days since my fight with Bri and I havn't talked to any of my friends since than. I think we all have been avoiding each other. I woke up today to the sound of somebody splashing in our pool. I marched downstairs and out the back door.
"Hey normally pool boys are supposed to clean the pool not swim in it." I said looking at the kid floating in the pool
"Pat Schneider?" I asked confused when I realized who it was
"Hello to you too. Did anybody tell you that you are a bitch in the morning?" he asked getting out of the pool
"Did anybody tell you you have morning breath?" I asked smirking
"I still see you are sarcastic still. Your dad told me I can come and swim here anytime I want." he explained drying himself off with a towel
"So you come and swim at 9:00 in the morning? Don't you have your own pool?" I asked confused
"We do but with all the snow we got this year the pool kind of sunk in. The workers said it won't be fixed till the end of summer." he said putting his shirt back on
"But you wouldn't know that because you didn't come home from college." he said
"You don't know the first thing about me." I said crossing my arms over my chest
"And I really don't want too. See you later." he said waving before walking out using the fence
"Asshole." I muttered walking back inside.
I got my breakfast and than took a quick dip in the pool. I tanned for a little bit before going inside and getting a shower.
"Hey your Dad was wondering if you could run to the store for him and pick up stuff for dinner?" Karen asked walking into my room without knocking
"Yeah sure." I said getting up to find something decent to wear
"Ok thanks. Money is on the table." she said before walking out
"Karen wait!" I called stopping her
"I'm sorry for being a bitch to you the other day. I got into a fight with my friends and I took it out on you. I'm sorry." I aplogized to her
"It's ok. Thank you for apologizing." she said smiling before walking downstairs
I changed into red shorts, white sandals, and a dressier shirt that was black in the front but white in the back. I threw my hair up in a messy bun and quickly applied foundation and mascara. I walked downstairs and grabbed the money off the table and drove to the store. I was in the middle of shopping when I ran smack into somebody.
"Sorry." the person and I both said at the same time
"Oh it's just you." Jack said coldly
"Excuse me what did I ever do to you? If I remember correctly you were the one that dumped me." I said glaring at him
"Ever since your little comment at Sam's party Leigh won't stop asking me questions." he exclaimed frustrated
"Well I don't care! You deserve it!" I said continuing on with my shopping
"How do I deserve it? She won't leave me alone." he said following me
"Because I just felt the need to warn her before you dump her without notice." I said putting things in my cart
"She doesn't need a warning though because she isn't you!" he blurted out. Wow that stung.
"Paige shit I didn't mean that." he said but I put my hand up to stop him
"Look I don't know why you broke up with me but it happened ok? I just want to know the reason why but I guess you arn't ever going to tell me. I thought coming back here this summer we could at least be friends but now I see we can't. This was a mistake. We were a mistake." I said to him trying to get away
"You really think we were a mistake?" he asked a little hurt
"I don't know what I think anymore. Look I got to go check out because my dad is cooking dinner tonight. See you around I guess." I said making sure to bump shoulders with him as I passed
"Paige wait!" he yelled trying to catch up to me but he was too late.
My Dad invited the Schneider's over for dinner. We all just finished eating. I was cleaning up when Pat walked in and burped in my face.
"You are a disgusting human being." I said holding my nose
"Yeah I could say the same about you after seeing you this morning. Can you say bedhead." he said laughing at his own joke
"You know most eighteen year old boys are supposed to hit puberty by now." I said smirking at him
"Guys could you please come here!" my dad yelled. We walked into the living room and sat down on the couch
"The Schneider's house has more damage to it from the snow than we expected. So I offered to let them move in and live with us this summer. They move in tomorrow." My dad exclaimed happily
"We just want to say thank you guys so much for opening your home to us." Mr Schneider said smiling
"Looks like we are going to be roomies." Pat said putting his arm around me
"Touch any of my stuff you die." I said shrugging his shoulder off to check my phone. I had one new text message from Megan
Mandatory sleepover at my house tomorrow. Be there by 7 sharp.
