Good Girl With a Secret Life

Part 12

One month later

Aria POV:

I haven't seen Anna much. She's still upset I'm not with Tommy which blows my mind why she would want me to be with him. She's always with Matt and of course Tommy has been hanging around there a lot and I don't want to be near him. We still talk and text everyday though. She keeps telling me how Tommy is constantly asking about me. She promised me she hasn't told him about my secret life, but I have a feeling she told him some things.

Sophia isn't mad at me anymore. I've been avoiding any school parties though. We still go get coffee and go shopping all the time. I love the fact that she doesn't try to pry about my life. She is an amazing friend.

I've been working like usual and hanging out with my boys at the clubs at least twice a week. I didn't want another incident so we have been mainly going to clubs up north and in NY. They know about everything and have been so supportive. Sophia mostly drives me to school, but if she can't Curtis does. People kept making up rumors of who is is but finally gave up. Now most think he's my boyfriend. I just ignore them when they try to pry about it. James and Jaxson keep begging to have turns to pick me up and drop me off but I refuse. I don't need more people asking questions and or starting rumors.

Today is the last day of school which means I'll be staying with my brother at the shore. Then my phone rings. "Hello?" My brother Jon replies "Hey sis" "what's up?" "Well, I have a proposition for you." "Go on". "Vicky, Jane and a few of there friends from NY got a shore house for the summer" (Vicky and Jane are my older cousins. Well not technically but we group up together. Their mom is my moms best friend since childhood. So we grew up thinking we were cousins.). "Okay, so how does this involve me?" "Well, one of the girls bailed and I though maybe you would want to stay there instead of with me" "how many girls are staying and how many rooms are there?" "Five girls you would make six. There's four rooms, two rooms with two twin beds, one with a queen and one bedroom with a king. Most of the girls are only coming up for a weekend but they all took off the week of Labor Day. You would get the room with the queen since you'll be staying all summer." "And how much?" $1200 for the summer". "Are you just trying to get me out of your place so you can bring girls home without your little sister there?" "I'm offended, you know I love having you. But okay maybe. But honestly this situation just landed on my lap. How about I even pay for half?" I know he's smiling. Should I mess with him a little? Oh yeah. "But Jon, I rarely see you and love spending the summer with you. How can you just kick your sister out like that?" I can hear him cursing under his breath. "You're right. And I love having you here. Plus I don't trust those wild girls and.." but I cut home off before he good finish the rest with my laughter. "Were you just messing with me? Oh I'm so going to get you back." I can't stop laughing. I finally calm down. "What day do I move in?" "Tomorrow if you want, want me to pick you up? "Nah I'll get James to drive me down". "Alright see you tomorrow. I'll text you the address. Bye."
My brother knows about me clubbing and the guys. When he met James he almost killed him. But once he learned more about him and how protective he is over me he actually started to like him. He hasn't met everyone but knows about most of the guys. Plus he is still friends with most of the bouncers so gets lots of details.

I call James and he agrees to drive me down. He's helping me carry bags to his car. "So does this mean I can stay with you whenever I want?" "Don't push it. You know my brother lives four blocks away and will be popping in. Plus I'm not gonna let you have sex with some sluts in my bed." He pouts "can I have sex with them on the couch? Or what about the garage? I can make that work." I just start laughing hysterically. "God James, you will never change."
He gives me his most innocent smile and puppy dog eyes. James really is the best. I would never do anything abt him to change. We're all done packing and hit the road.
