I stayed with Sam in the hot tub for a little bit and helped record part of his video that he planned to post on YouTube. Being on camera never really bothered me, so I wasn't even a bit camera shy.

It started to get a little cool out and the clouds hovered above the Traphouse backyard. Sam and I got out of the hot tub and went to go do our own things inside.

I planned to go upstairs to go take a shower to wash off the chlorine. But before that, I went in my closet to pick out a sweatshirt, a pair of comfy shorts, and a puka shell necklace.

I didn't hear anyone in the bathroom but the door was open just a little so I went in. Big mistake. I walked in on Jake with a towel wrapped around his waist but it hung low. "Oh my god! I'm so sorry!"

"Ahh!" Jake jumped and turned around to readjust his towel, "You scared me."

"I'm sorry, I should've knocked before I came in." I looked towards the hallway, "Yeah, I'm really sorry about that. I'll wait."

"You're good, at least I wasn't totally naked." Jake laughed, "I'll be out in a minute."

While I was waiting outside the bathroom, I sent Brennen a text message:

"Hey. This is Violet, the girl you met at the party. I was wondering if you'd like to hang out tonight or something. I'm just off to take a quick shower."

Jake quickly removed himself from the bathroom, still with the towel wrapped around him. We giggled as we passed each other. This time I remembered to lock the door before I undressed myself, unlike Jake.

When I was done showering I checked my phone. Brennen had texted me back 10 minutes ago:

"Hey Violet. Yeah, I'd love to hang to out. Just let me know when you're ready and I'll come pick you up from the Traphouse."

I texted back:

"I'll be ready in about a half hour. See you then. (:"

I didn't really know Brennen either, but I felt like I needed to get away from the Traphouse take my mind off of Colby. I went to my room to apply my makeup and sent Sam a text to let him know I'd be gone for a couple hours.

A/N

I don't have anything to do today and my heel is healing especially since I'm going to summerfest tomorrow. But these chapters are getting intense, or maybe they are just to me. I don't know. I hope you're enjoying the book so far!
