I sat on my bedtrying to finish my homework so I don't have to think about it the rest of the weekend. Unfortunately, my serendipitous meeting with Paul kept floating across my mind. As soon as Bella comes home from Port Angeles, I'll have to tell her all about it.
Slapping my pencil down in surrender, I picked up my phone to ask Jake and the boys if they wanted to join me at the diner. I scrunch my eyes shut and take a deep breath, knowing I'm about to get resistance from them.
me: hey losers <3, so I ran into paul at the grocery store and he invited us to hang out at the diner with him, kim, and jared.... plz can y'all come
embry: ... you want us to hang out with the 'roided out hall monitors???
me: they're not taking steroids :(
jake: UGH. they're literally in a cult
quil: yeah daisy, gotta be careful around them, you don't understand
me: well they have been super nice to me, what's with the beef between all of you??
embry: here we go
jake: they're goddamn traitors, we were all super close when we were kids but at the beginning of this year they just ghosted us. apparently their loser sophomore friends weren't cool enough to be in their little cult since they're juniors. screw those jerks
quil: I mean, it just hurt because they didn't even tell us why, they just stopped talking to us all together
embry: plus, we're only invited because of you
me: I can totally see how that hurt you guys, but paul actually told me to invite you guys by name. he seemed kinda sad
jake: lol. paul? sad? nah I don't even think he can feel that emotion
me: that's a little unfair. please just come? for me? <3333333333
quil: I'll go
embry: anything for queen daisy
jake: fine.
me: thank you boys!!! see you tomorrow, I'll text you the details when paul tells me
I collapsed on my bed in victory, hugging my phone to my chest. I wasn't sure why, but it was really important to me that all the boys made up. They all seemed to be hurting and it looked to me like it was mostly caused by a lot of miscommunication.
I finally sat back up and returned to my homework, renewed with the motivation that I didn't want homework hanging over my head tomorrow. After about a half hour of chemistry, three procrastinatory bathroom breaks and one bag of Pirate's Booty. I heard a soft purr of a car engine, and rushed to my window to see if Bella was finally home.
