Summer p.o.v

It's been a week since we came back from NY after attending Amaira's wedding. It was a fabulous wedding and turns out Alison and Alister were right Brent was indeed perfect for Amaira. After the scene at Sam's Diner we didn't meet Sara and Trent again for the rest of our stay. And soon it was time to come back and after a painful goodbye to my parents we were back. And soon we adjusted back to our daily life, with school, homework and friends. And now it was a weekend and Alex dragged me to a mall for shopping. For the past hour or so I've been plotting my own death. Shopping alone is good but shopping with Alex is just plain torture. She was not satisfied with just one shop or one dress or one shoe or one accessory! She had to try everything and I mean everything. And worse she made me try on a few clothes that I wouldn't be caught dead in.

Ping! My phone buzzes with a text. I remove it from my jeans pocket to find the text from my 'boyfriend'.

Virus: How's your shopping coming along?

Me: What do you think is a easier and painless way to die? Hang myself with the heaps of clothes Alice bought or stab myself with that gigantic pair of stilettoes she bought?

I quickly reply as Alice once again drags me into another shop.

Ping! I open my cell phone to see yet another message from him. I let Alice wonder inside the shop as I stand in one corner and text my so called 'boyfriend'.

Virus: That bad huh?

Me: You have no idea.

Virus: Actually I do. I was once a victim of her shopping antics too.

Me: I kind of want to see that....

Virus: Yeah too bad you can't as she found another victim now and it looks like she's her favorite so best of luck :P

Me: Ugh! How do I make her stop?

Virus: Want me to make her stop? For you?

Me: Yes! Do you even need to ask?

Virus: I can do it....

Me: But?

Virus: I wont do it for free.

I roll my eyes at his message. I knew he would say something like this. Stupid idiotic bad boy virus!

Me: Thought so... What do you want?

Virus: Get me pizza on your way back.

Me: That's all?

Virus: YuP

Me: That's easy. You have yourself a deal. I thought you were going to ask for something weird.

Virus: I was going to but then I became hungry.

Me: Got it. One large pizza coming your way but if you want it soon better get to it cause I'm not coming there anytime soon unless Alice finishes her shopping parade.

Virus: On it.

I sigh and tug my cell phone back in my pocket and head off in search of Alice. I find her near the aisle kept for summer dresses and she was busy talking to someone on her cell, Chase no doubt.

"Fine. I got it. Uh huh. Bye." I manage to catch some of her words as I walk towards her before she ends the call and tucks the phone back into her jeans pocket.

"Alice?" I call out to her, while looking at the piles of clothes on her hand. Damn that's a lot, a lot lot.

"Summer!" She excitedly screeches, man this girl is a banshee, my poor ears. "Perfect timing." She says jumping up and down.

"Uh yeah?" I ask her not sure what she was talking about and truth be told I was scared to find out.

"Quickly try this dress on." She instructs pushing a light blue summer dress towards me.

"Uh why?" I ask her looking at the dress in my hand, it was not very bad in fact it was actually very pretty it was a simple plain light blue knee length dress with shoulder length sleeves, my taste exactly.

"Because I told you so. Now go and change!" She says rolling her eyes at me.

"But Ali-" Before I could finish my sentence she interrupts me.

"Bup bup bup. I know you are tired from jumping around from shop to shop and not to forget your boyfriend is missing you so you need to get back to him as soon as possible and that will only be when you try that dress on so go ahead." She says pushing me towards one of the dressing rooms. I sigh knowing well that I don't have a choice but to do as told. And besides the sooner I wear it the sooner I'll be out of here. I enter the room and after locking it, strip my clothes and wear the dress. I check my reflection and I must say that the dress is a perfect fit and it showcased what little curves I had nicely. I open the door and step out to find Alice chatting away on her cell phone while leaning towards the wall in front of the dressing rooms.

Cough. I fake a cough to grab her attention and it works, as she stands there to face me and her jaw literally drops down I'm surprised that it didn't hit the floor. I start getting uncomfortable as she keeps on staring, not uttering a word.

"Uh Alice? It doesn't look good or something?" I ask her, and my voice seemed to snap her out of whatever trance she was in as she looks up at me.

"Huh? What?" She asks.

"The dress. It doesn't look good on me?" I repeat my question.

"What are you talking about? You look absolutely gorgeous in it. Man! When Chase looks at you in it, he's gonna go crazy and fall in love with all over again." Alice says, with a big smile on her face making me blush.

"Uh thanks I guess?" I mumble.

"Go ahead and change. After buying this dress let's call it a day, your boyfriend is getting impatient." Alice says and I nod.

"Um Alice I didn't bring my card. Let's buy this dress tomorrow and instead head home, okay?" I ask her and instead of answering yes she looks at me like I have gone crazy. "What? Why are you looking at me like I've gone crazy?" I ask her, confused.

"'Cause you are crazy to think that I would let you pay. This is my gift to you." She answers.

"What? No Alice..." Before I can finish my sentence she interrupts.

"Look Summer, you are my friend, best friend even and you gave me a really expensive pocket watch and besides this dress is absolutely gorgeous and you look amazing in it and if we leave it here for tomorrow someone else will buy it so just listen to me and let me buy it for you, okay?" She says, smiling sweetly at me.

"Yeah but..." Once again get interrupted.

"If it bothers you so much, I'll buy this and take money from Chase to remunerate for it. He's your boyfriend and this is the least he can do for his girlfriend, don't you think so?" She asks me, smirking while her eyes gleam with mischievousness. I return and smile next to her.

"You are right. That's the least he can do being my boyfriend and all." I laugh and she joins along.

"Now go change, so we can leave before your said boyfriend barges into the mall searching for you." She says and I roll my eyes but do as told cause who knows he might just do that and not because he misses me but instead for his pizza, that I promised him. I quickly change and wear my clothes again and gently hold the dress and walk out of the dressing room and

"Will you wait for me at the food court, ill quickly pay for all this and be right back." She says taking the dress and once I nod my head she walks away to pay for my dress and numerous of her clothes. I walk towards the food court and sit in one of the empty seats and wait for Alice to come to order anything. I take out my cell and play some games to pass the time. After a few minutes I feel someone standing beside me and I look up to find the lady from the lantern festival me and Chase had been to.

"I'm sorry, but can I bother you for some of your time?" She asks me, speaking softly. I wanted to say no but finding a sort of desperation in her eyes I find myself nodding.

"Would you like to take a seat?" I ask her, while offering the seat in front of me. She nods her head and takes the seat. A minute of silence covers us like a thick blanket making the situation all the more awkward. "You wanted to say something?" I ask her willing the conversation to move forward.

"Yes that is right. Um the boy you were with last time, who was he?" She asks looking at me.

"Um.. He was my... my boyfriend." I answer her with a moment of hesitation, though it wasn't a big pause but I'm sure she noticed. I'm just she brushed it off as me being awkward with sharing something personal with her, which was a half truth.

"Wow, I didn't know Chase had a girlfriend." She mumbles but I heard her loud and clear.

"Do you know him?" I ask her.

"Huh?" She asks, confused.

"Do you know him? Chase I mean?" I ask her with a rephrased question.

"What makes you think that?" She asks with a poker face but she was a second or two later as I managed to catch a glimpse of surprise and fear in her eyes.

"You said his name even though I didn't mention his name with the one sentence I spoke to you." I tell her, narrowing my eyes at her as she slightly fidgets in her seat,

"I...I.. um.." She stutters.

"I'm sorry I don't know who you are and to be honest you are scaring me a bit so if you'll excuse me I'm going to take my leave now." I tell her rising from the seat and as I'm about to walk away she grabs my wrist.

"No please, please stay. I know this is weird entirely but I promise you I'm not some strange person I just... I just.." Her grip on my wrist loosens and she lets it go entirely as she plops down on the seat and looks down at the floor, completely giving up on making me stay. i surprise her and myself by sitting down once again. She looks up at me with her eyes full of hope. Hope for what exactly?

"What is it? Please get straight to the point because going in circles only seems to cause confusion, and confusion isn't good right now." I tell her and she nods.

"How is he doing?" She asks in a soft whisper and I only caught the question because I was intently listening for it.

"Who? Chase?" I ask her, and she nods. "He's doing fine." I answer.

"What kind of a person as he become?" She asks, looking at me with curious eyes and for some reason I couldn't help but want to answer all her questions.

"You want the truth?" I ask her and she nods. "Okay here it goes, when I first met him he was a rude jerk and a playboy, breaking girl's heart seemed like a hobby to him." I tell her.

"And now that you have met him, how is he?" She asks.

"Well now that I met him he is still a rude jerk but as I get to know him more I found out that there is more to him. He loves to tease and irritate me but when he makes a promise or is given a task he gives his all to do it and complete it. He is also caring and understanding; he puts his friends first then thinks about himself. He knows what to say to make me or anyone for that matter to feel better when they are sad or upset. He is a jokester, his jokes always lighten up anyone's mood and he is really charming. I won't be surprised if he manages to charm a plant." I finish my rant with a chuckle and surprisingly the lady joins along as well.

"Looks like he managed to charm you as well." She laughs.

"Not entirely. If I tell you that I wasn't charmed by him at all would be a lie but the truth is also that he hasn't managed to charm me complete, yet." I tell with a laugh.

"Did you meet Emmett as well?" She asks and I nod. "What did you think about him?" She asks and I laugh.

"I only met him once and at that time neither one of us wanted to sit down and chat with each other." I answer, remembering the time that I did manage to meet Chase's older brother.

"Why not?" She asks, curiosity burning in her eyes.

"I think it would be in the best interest of the three of us to not indulge in this topic." I tell her and she nods giving in.

"They are handsome men, aren't they?" She asks and it was now my turn to nod.

"Yes they indeed are very very handsome but if they manage to steer their personality in the right way then they would be the total package and any girl would fall for them, not that they aren't falling now, which they are and now I'm just rambling about. It feels weird to defend ones boyfriends sex life along with his brothers." I say which causes her to burst out laughing.

"Oh my! You sure are an interesting one. My boy did a fine job of getting himself a very fine girl like you." She says still chuckling. My boy?

"Can you now tell me who are you and what's your connection with Chase and Emmett?" I ask her.

"Um you see... I... I am.. I am their-" Before she could complete her sentence she got interrupted.

"Summer!" Alice calls out to me. I look up and find her walking towards me.

"Hey Alice." I smile at her.

"Don't hey me. There are so many open spots here but you go ahead and pick the most farthest seat which might I point out is hidden and cant be seen and almost gave me a heart attack. I thought I lost you. God! Now I know how those mothers who lose their kids in a mall feel. Do you know how worried I was when I couldn't find you and not to forget scared. I almost peed my pants when I thought about how Chase would murder me for losing his oh so precious girlfriends." She rambles seemingly out of breath, and I almost roll my eyes at her ramblings but stop myself after looking at her poor panting self, looks like she ran all around searching for me.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to make you worry, when I came here this was the only seat that was available and didn't know it was hidden." I apologize.

"Yeah its okay. Who were you talking to?" She asks and I turn to the lady and she follows, as the lady rises up from her seat to face the two of us.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Alex spits at the lady. I look at the two of them in confusion.

"Wait, Alex you know her?" I ask her.

"I do know her. Infact I cant ever forget the likes of her." She seethes at the lady.

"Alex, how are you?" The lady asks her.

"Don't you dare ask me how I am and I sure as hell wont be asking you the same."Alex yells.

"What's going on?" I ask, confused.

"What are you doing here with her Summer? Do you know her?" Alex asks, looking at me.

"Um, not really I just saw her once when me and Chase were on a date. Who is she?" I ask.

"You really don't know?" Alex asks, looking at me dubiously.

"If I did I wouldn't be asking you now would I?"I ask her.

"Chase didn't tell you?" Alex asks, still not answering my question.

"No he didn't. It never came up and besides I only saw her once but she clearly seems to know you, Chase and Emmett. Who is she?" I ask her, clearly tired of being confused.

"I'm their Mother." The lady answers and me and Alex both look at her.

"You are what?" I ask, shocked. I never heard Chase talking about his mom. Whenever we spoke about our families he would only talk about his dad who was a businessman and was always away and his big brother Emmett. I found it strange that he never spoke about his mother and came to the conclusion that it was a touchy subject to him and just assumed that she was dead. But right now, standing before me is the lady who claims to be his mother and she clearly isn't dead.

"You didn't know?" Alex asks looking at me, with her eyes wide open.

"No Alex, I just make a hobby of asking questions that I know the answers of." I answer while rolling my eyes.

"Okay geez. I thought Chase told you about his family since you are his girlfriend and all." She murmurs and I sigh.

"He did tell me about his family Alex. His dad and brother never about his mother so I assumed that she wasn't alive." I say and from the corner of my eyes I can see the lady's, Chase's mothers face fall. "I'm sorry I didn't...." I start apologizing but she interrupts me before I can finish it.

"Its okay. You don't need to apologize to them I might as well be dead." She says, giving me a small smile.

"What do y-" Before I can finish my sentence I am once again interrupted.

"I'm am glad that you know." Alex huffs.

"Alex!" I call her but she just rolls her eyes at me.

"Let's go Summer. Chase is waiting remember and now you wont have to waste any more time on her." Alex says grabbing my hand and trying to pull me away from Chase's mother. I look at her and find her smiling softly at me encouraging me to walk away but the pain shown in her eyes is the one that makes me remove my hand from Alex's clutches. "Summer?" She asks shocked by my action.

"Alex I'm going to stay here a bit more." I tell her, shocking both her and Chase's mother.

"What? Summer are you serious?" Alex asks.

"Yes I am." I nod my head.

"No, if Chase finds out he'll be-" This time I interrupt her.

"Chase is my boyfriend yes but he does not control who I talk to. And right now the two of us have a lot to talk about, so I'm going to stay." I tell her, staring into her eyes the whole time daring her to say anything else against it.

"But-" She starts once again.

"Alex I'm staying and if you don't want to you can leave." I tell her.

"Fine ill leave but...." She says giving in while looking dejected.

'"Ill come meet you as soon as I'm done with this." I tell her, smiling brightly at her, as I felt guilty about doing this to her.

"Alright. Just hurry back soon. Ill be at Chase's house with Drew and the rest." Alex says.

"Okay." After a quick glance at Chase's mother Alex walks away from the two of us. Once we were unable to see her anymore I turn to face Chase's mom. "I don't think we have introduced ourselves yet. My name is Summer Weather-Stevens." I raise my hand for a shake.

"I am Mary Stephen. Its nice to meet you." She says, while shaking my hand. Both of us take our seats soon after.

"Now speak." I sort of order her, which must have been a surprise to her as she looks up at me with her big brown eyes. Just like Emmett's. "Surely you wouldn't have approached me for a small chat about the weather or something and as you had seen earlier and now heard I am Chase's girlfriend. So what is it that you want to talk to me about?" I ask her and a small smile spreads out on her face.

"A smart girl." She nods.

"I am. Now what is it you want to talk about?" I ask her.

"Well you see......"

Chase p.o.v

Me and Drew were busy playing COD on my playstation and I don't know how but he was leading. Like what in the world. I always win in this game and worst of all this was my game for crying out loud and I wasn't going to let anyone beat my record in here. As we were in the middle of a very intense battle we can hear the front door open.

"Looks like the girls are finally back with our pizza." Matt murmurs walking away from us. All of my friends were at home today with the addition of Alister and Alison who I now consider my friends were also here. "Finally, I thought we were going to die of starvation." We can hear Matt tell the girls.

"Sorry." We hear Alex apologize and walk towards the living room where all of us were sitting.

"Where is Summer? I thought she was coming as well." I hear Alister ask grabbing my attention away from the game. I pause the game and turn to face Alex and sure enough Summer was missing.

"She wasn't done with shopping yet so she stayed behind. She'll be back soon." Alex says smiling at Alister, not meeting my eyes even though I was looking at her.

"Alex, Summer stayed behind to shop?" I ask her, raising my right eyebrow at her. She meets my eyes but quickly looks away.

"Tha-That's what I said. You guys must be hungry I'll go grab some plates and all of us can dig in to the pizza that I brought." Alex says before rushing into the kitchen.

"Ill be right back." I tell them and follow Alex to the kitchen. She was rummaging through the shelves in search of plates and I go and stand next to her. As soon as she closes the door she jumps 10ft above the ground.

"God! Chase! What the hell?" She yells while holding onto her chest with her right hand no doubt, trying to calm her racing heart down.

"Sorry. Didn't mean to startle you." I apologize.

"This is what she meant by appearing out of thin air huh?" She mumbles.

"What?" I ash her, confused.

"Nothing. What brings you here? So hungry that you couldn't wait huh?" She teases grabbing the plates one by one and balancing it in her left hand.

"That too and is Summer really shopping?" I ask her making her stop for a mid-second on grabbing onto the next plate but she quickly recovers. Too bad that I saw her pause.

"I told you that she was. Is something wrong with your memory or something? You are growing old too fast." She teases.

"Yeah too bad that I'm not and besides you should know better than to lie to me." I tell her while grabbing the plates from her hand.

"W-What? I'm not lying." Alex stutters. I lightly flick her forehead.

"Stop lying. I know when you lie your nose twitches lightly and also did you forget that I've known you since our diaper days so you better start spilling the truth out now before I start getting mad." I tell her and she gives me a glare which I return with my own.

"Fine." She gives in with a sigh. "You didn't tell me!" She screeches and I quickly cover my ears.

"What?" I ask her, completely surprised by her yelling at me all of a sudden. I see her lips moving but am unable to listen to her voice. "What are you saying? I can't hear you." She rolls her eyes at me and removes my hands that were covering my ears. "Oh, sorry." I apologize sheepishly. "You were saying?" I ask her.

"Why the hell didn't you tell me that your mother was back in town?" She yells.

"What? How did you know?" I ask her confused.

"Oh gee let's see. I don't know call it intuition. Or her meeting your girlfriend and trying to be chummy with her in front of me!" She mutters.

"What?" I ask her, confused and shocked.

"You heard me. Apparently she met the two of you earlier and you knew and didn't tell me. I thought she was in London what's she doing here? And why the hell didn't you tell me that she was back?" She asks.

"She surprised me. I didn't know she was back either, we just ran into her a while back so it was a surprise to us too. And I didn't tell you because I thought I wouldn't run into her again. Wait, are you telling me that Summer is with her right now?" I ask her.

"Yes, dufus. That's what I said and how is it not important to tell me that your mother was back in town?" She asks.

"It just wasn't and why the hell is Summer with her right now? And Alex why the hell did you leave Summer with her?" I ask her.

"Like I had a choice, your girlfriend is very stubborn. You should know." Alex states and I nod.

"She is stubborn but why would she want to stay with her?" I ask her.

"I dunno. Ask your girlfriend when she returns." She says and I sigh. "And besides why didn't you tell her about your mom?" She asks.

"Because it wasn't something she needed to know." I tell her, my voice raising a bit.

"She's your girlfriend dumbass. She's supposed to know everything about you." Alex states.

"Not this." I say before walking out of the kitchen. I grab my jacket and wallet along with my car keys and make my way out.

'Where the hell are you going?" Alex calls out after me.

"I'm going to get her back." I say before shutting the door close. I get inside my car and drive towards the mall. After 15 minutes of driving I finally reach the mall. I park my car and make my way inside just as my phone vibrates inside my pocket. I grab it and open the mail from Alex.

Alex: Idiot how can you just walk out like that. We were having a conversation! :/ And FYI she's at the food court with you mother. Forget to get this detail did you? Just come back soon so that I can have your head on the platter sooner.....

I chuckle reading her message. I seriously wonder what I would do without Alex or any of my friends in my life I would be so lost. I put my cell phone back into my pocket and make my way to the food court. Once there I search everywhere but don't seem to find them until I saw this wall slightly places in a peculiar place. I walk towards it and sure enough I see Summer and my 'Mother' seated. Mother was crying and Summer was consoling her. I walk towards them and quickly grab Summer's hand and pull her up, and by her eyes that go wide I'm sure I managed to surprise her.

"Chase? What are you doing here?" She asks surprised.

"We are leaving!" I tell her and turn us around.

"But Chase I was.." Summer says trying to pull her hand free.

"Didn't you hear me? I said we are leaving. Now!" I tell her, with a stern stare making her shut her mouth. I was about to walk away from there when I hear another familiar voice call me, making me stop.

"Chase. Let me explain." My so called mother says in a soft voice. I turn around to look at her.

"Explain? Really? You know how to explain yourselves now do you?" I ask her with a scoff.

"Chase." Summer says with a warning tone so as to calm me down. I just roll my eyes at her but do try remain calm.

"Chase I-" She starts but I stop her.

"Save it. I don't care. You want to explain yourself huh? Guess what, you are 11 years too late." I tell her and walk away from there, dragging Summer along with me. We walk out to the parking area to my car. "Get in." I command and surprisingly Summer does as told. I get in and once I put my car on gear I drive back to my house. For two minutes the two of us sit in complete silence until Summer decides to break it.

"Chase, what you did was rude." Summer says, looking at me. I grip the steering wheel harder.

"I don't know what you are saying." I tell her, more like breath out in between my gritted teeth.

"Ofcourse you do. That was a really rude way to talk to your mother." She says. I hit the brake on my car and twirl it so that it'll stop near the curb and not the road, making her let out a small squeal. "What the hell Chase!" She cries out as soon as the car stops without hitting anything.

"She is not my Mother." I state looking at her.

"Yes she is and seriously you almost killed us so that you can say a lie?" She asks looking at me like I've gone crazy.

"Its not a lie." I tell her, she turns to look at me.

"Really? That women gave birth to you so she is your mother whether you like it or not." She huffs, crossing her hands.

"Yes she gave birth and left me when I needed her the most so she is not a mother." I tell her.

"Chase why do you act like she is dead?" Summer asks now softening her voice.

"Because she is. Dead to me and my family. She became dead to us the minute she walked out of the house with her boy toy and left us to fend for ourselves." I tell her, now looking in front and not at her.

"Chase you can't say that. Losing a parent isn't easy and I know that but she is atleast trying to make amends with you. Would it hurt you to give her a chance?" Summer asks.

"Why the hell are you taking her side? And you don't know what I am feeling okay! What? Just because you spoke to her and she shed a few tears you know her better than anyone now?" I ask her, now looking at her.

"No I'm not claiming that I know her the best. But I spoke to her Chase and I don't think she is lying and besides I can see how desperately she wants to make amends with you. And I do know the pain you went through. I lost my dad too and besides you should be glad that your mom is alive and is trying her best to have a relationship with you. No matter how hard I try I can't do that with my dad, fight and be angry with him and him trying to make amends with me. Trust me I would do anything just to have that but I can't and you can so stop being stubborn and give her a chance. You miss your mom and she misses you so why make it hard for the both of you?" She asks, her eyes holding unshed tears.

"I'm sorry Summer but you don't know what I went through. And also this not your fairytale not everything is meant to have a happy ending and need I point out that you are pretending to be my girlfriend. You seriously can't think that all of this is true or are you that dumb? I thought we had a mutual agreement that it was just a pretend not real. So stop acting like my girlfriend cause you are not!" I yell at her.

"I'm sorry. I thought though I'm not your girlfriend I was your friend. I must have been mistaken. I'm sorry." She apologizes looking away but not fast enough as I see the first tear fall down her cheek. "And Chase just because life is not a fairytale and have a happy ending doesn't mean that we can't hope and try to have one. I believe every life is living a fairytale and their choices lead them to their happy ending." She says before opening the door and getting off the car.

"Summer!" I call after her, already regretting my words.

"Just stop Chase. Just think about it." She says turning to look at me before walking away and stopping a cab and getting inside it. I hit my hand followed by my head on the steering wheel before putting the gear back in and driving home. Once home I park the car and enter the house to find everyone in the living room eating pizza and having fun.

"Oh Chase you finally came back! Where is Summer?" Alex asks once she notices me.

"She went home. You guys should too." I say before walking towards my room. Once inside I remove my jacket and plop down on the bed face first. I think back to the conversation I had with Summer in my car. I can't believe I said that and I can't get her tearful face out of my mind.

God, Chase! You screwed up! Big time!!

A soft knock on my door breaks me out of my thoughts or more like mental cursing. The door opens and Alex walks in.

"Didn't you leave?" I ask her, sitting up on the bed. My back resting on the wall and facing her,

"No, the others did. You okay?" Alex asks, looking at me with a small smile on her face.

"Not really. I really screwed up this time with Summer." I tell her, honestly. With Alex there are no secrets, atleast not the ones that are really deep or too much like this one. I tell her everything and she does the same. Me, her and Drew have known each other since we were a month old. Our parents were close friends being neighbors and all and so we have always been together, through thick and thin. I won't ever admit it out loud but I'm actually glad to have them in my life.

"Okay what happened? Tell me everything." She orders and I do as told. I tell her everything.

"My god! I'm best friends with the stupidest boy in the whole world." She claims as soon as I'm done with telling her my story.

"I know but man not a boy." I correct but nevertheless agree with it.

"Nope. A man doesn't mess things up with his girlfriend over a stupid matter." Alex disagrees,

"Its not stupid." I defend.

"It is. Chase you know I love you and I do know where you are coming from but Summer is right as well." Alex says.

"How can you say that? You know perfectly well what I went through at that time." I say, surprised by her words.

"I do know. Did you forget I was there the whole time. And I'm not telling you to forgive the women I'm just telling you to give her a chance to explain herself. You and Emmett both need that. Whats the term I'm looking for? Closure yup that's the one." Alex says.

"But I don't need a closure. I don't want to do anything to do with that women. Not now not ever." I tell her.

"I know but just think about it okay." Alex says gently patting my leg. "I'm going to leave now. Drew is waiting for me. Bye Chase and think about it." She says before walking out. I sigh and once again plop down on the bed. Are both Alex and Summer right? I think back to all the times I shared with that women and though sad I still had some nice memories, happy memories with her. Though I was a kid I seem to remember the moments I had with her clearly. Maybe I do want to listen to her. I dunno but right now my priority was to set things right between me and Summer. I can't let her be mad at me for long. I can't just the thought of it makes me feel sick. I pull out my cell phone and send a quick message to Summer.

Me: Hey its me. I just wanted to apologize for what happened. I didn't mean what I said and I'm feeling really bad about it. Forgive me please....

I quickly send the message before lying down on the bed once again. After a few minutes my cell phone dings indicating a message and I dive for it faster than a professional diver.

Winter: Wow! Did you just type the whole message properly without using any acronyms... I'm surprised!

Her message brings a smile on my face.

Me: Surprised or impressed?

Winter: That too but now don't get cocky it wont last long :P

Me: We'll see. So am I forgiven?

I hold my breath anxiously waiting for her reply.

Winter: No. Not yet.

Not yet? Well that means that I still have chance to get her forgiveness.

Me: So what can I do to get you to forgive me? Ill do anything.

Winter: Anything? Really?

Me: Yes! Anything!

Winter: Let me think. Well you sort of insulted my fairytales so you have to buy me one fairytale and...

Me: And?

Winter: Meet me at Lily's restaurant at 2 for lunch. Wear something nice.

I smile wider when I read her text message.

Me: Are you asking me out on a date?

Winter: Don't get your hopes up. Just be there. And yeah maybe I can just make you believe in happy endings....

Me: Well then I look forward to it...

Winter: Me too. See you tomorrow Chase.

Me: See you.

I drop my cell phone on the mattress and do a little happy dance inside my head. A date with Summer!

"Yes!" I raise my hand into the air.

Now this is what I would call a happy ending for the day.... And tomorrow might just be the beginning of more happy endings to come........
